Good news!

I just learned I was picked to be trained as a volunteer animal handler at the zoo! It's a new program that we had to apply for, and 2-4 volunteers per day were chosen. I wasn't sure I was going to get it because I have little hands-on experience with animals, but I did, and so did my friend Karina! This is so exciting, you will have to all come by and pet the chinchilla, and the Madagascar hissing cockroach! :D

This week has been so dull at work, I have been doing little but researching my trip to Oahu, which I can't believe is coming up in less than 4 weeks now. I went to my first SCUBA meet-up and met some fellow divers who introduced me to scubaboard.com. so now I have another website with which to occupy myself while at work :p. Right now I'm trying to decide if I want to do my advanced open water training when I'm in Oahu, or just dive for fun. I also booked a certain activity for the morning of my birthday, and I've been having dreams about it almost every night. I'm so excited! I'm so excited! I'm so...Jessie Spano. ;)

That's awesome lady! I will not go anywhere near the cockroach (OMG does that mean YOU have to touch it all the time?) but I will be wanting to pet the chinchilla.
