Happy Easter to all, and to all a Good Night

First and foremost,  I have to say Happy Birthday Jim McGuirk!! My dad's birthday was on Friday! I would have loved to be there to celebrate with him, but I was with him in spirit! Love you Dad!!


Friday  night, a friend from work invited me to a concert. I had no idea what to expect except he said that his friend knew the band. Well, they were pretty awesome. They had a classic 80's hair band look about them, complete with the lead singer wearing fish nets and booty shorts. It reminded me of Rocky Horror Picture Show, which my friend (who is from India) had no idea about. That was a lot of fun just to be out and try something different!


Work has been crazy as ever. I have been working at the Quarterdeck restaurant still and actually getting a bit better at things over there. Easter was pretty intense. Not only did we have service, but we had a giant Easter brunch from 11-4, there were dishes everywhere, food everywhere, its amazing that everything got pulled together. Some of us were working the line and some were helping the with brunch. I was doing  the pantry station, which essentially means making salads and desserts. The head Chef, who I have gotten to know through working at the Conference Center, was there yesterday expediting the lunch service. He makes sure that all the food is out and going to the right place. Since he's gotten to know me, he knows that I prefer working at the Conference Center and yesterday he said to me "I don't know why you hate it here, you're doing a great job!" That made me feel pretty good. Also, yesterday was my first double. I worked from 11 AM - 11PM. Woah! My legs and feet were hurting pretty badly after that. My roommate and I were laying in our beds with our feet up against the wall to try to stretch them and make them feel better!

I have the day off today. Not only am I going to go work out which I could not be more excited about right now, but I think I will go explore Savannah a little bit. It seems that for us interns, our days off are generally the most dismal days on the island, in terms of weather. Hopefully that will change during the summer! But today its rainy and overcast, not a day for the beach, but definitely a day for some mall shopping in Savannah!
