There was a
time when I honestly thought I’d never find a place I love more than the San
Antonio Zoo. But I must say that no place has felt more like heaven to me than
this park. It’s without a doubt the most beautiful place I’ve ever been, but
that’s not even all of it. My job itself is actually really nice, especially
with my fun coworkers and supervisors. GTLC is a great company to work for, and
I’ve loved every minute of it.
I worked the
3-11 shift yesterday with Nate and Jen, one of our managers. It’s gotten easier
with shift. The only thing that took some getting used to was learning the
computer system that we use to check people in and out. I think after doing a
couple of check ins, though, everyone’s nervousness went away. Tonight, since
we’re expecting it to be busier than yesterday, it’ll be me, Nate, and Maggie
working 3-11. Still shouldn’t be hard, though. In a way I prefer it when it’s
busier since the shift seems to go faster.
Last night
when we got off work, I sat right outside of my dorm building for a while and
watched the meteor shower that was happening. Cristina was already asleep by
the time I got in our room, and I was pretty tired too, so I didn’t stay out
too long. This morning I did some reading on our back porch, and saw “Todd”,
the neighborhood fox, again. He’s beautiful.
At lunch
today I looked up the zoo’s website to see the schedule for zoo camp, and
almost automatically started putting it in my phone calendar. It was weird
realizing that I didn’t need to do that, since that didn’t apply to me anymore.
It’ll definitely be strange to not be involved with zoo camp for the first time
in so many summers, but I’m glad I’m doing this instead.
