Spring Break

      Spring break was a crazy, busy week for me. Over spring break I started my second job. My second job is at Walmart. I got hired as a lawn and garden cashier. I enjoy working in lawn and garden, so far. It is nice because it is not as busy and crazy as up front, except on the weekends. Even though I work in lawn and garden I have been used in many different ways. I have worked up front as a cashier, in electronics, in toys, and I have even helped moved an aisle. What is also nice is that I make more and receive more hours, then my first job. Do not get me wrong, I enjoy my first job too. My first is as a stylist at a clothing store. All the people I work with are great. My favorite thing about my job is the customers. I enjoy helping them find the perfect outfit or piece of clothing that fits them great. At the store I work at we try to build a relationship with our customers. I have never been to a clothing store that has helped their shoppers as much as the the company I work for.

 With working both jobs I worked everyday of break except one. That day I took a road trip with my future sister-in-law to Kansas. We went to Kansas to go to the zoo and visit my college friends from MidAmerica Nazarene University. The night before our trip we stayed up late making road trip CD’s. We ended up making four CD’s. The next morning we made our lunches so we could have lunch at the zoo. After that we got our coffee and hit the road. We were planning on actually listening to the CD’s that we made but we ended up talking the whole time, it was great. My future sister-in-law is a great girl. She is a freshman in high school, but she is really mature for her age. Plus she is lots of fun to be around. 

     We had a great time at the zoo. We were a little disappointed that half the zoo was closed because they were doing remodeling. We both agreed that our favorite part was the polar bear. Another part that I thought was really neat was that there was no fence between the park visitors and the kangaroos. I thought it was very trusting of the visitors for the park to do that. Another cute part was a baby orangutan. There was a male visitor that reached his hand out to the baby orangutan. The baby orangutan reached his hand out also and touched the man’s hand.

     

   On top of an amazing day at the zoo, getting to see my college friends was great. We did not do much but it was nice just getting to spend time with them. We were able to have dinner together and just hangout in the dorms. Over all it was good spring break. The only thing I wish was that it was just a little bit longer.
