My days are all running together and I don't remember where I have left off and what all happened when so if I start repeating myself that explains why. I guess the last time I posted was right before my day off. It was a great day off and much needed break. I attempted to sleep in but of course failed. I spent most my day laying out on the deck. The weather was great, not too hot. It would have actually been too cool if I had gone down to the beach. I got caught up with family and friends and even got to enjoy a nice nap. My roommate and I went into Atlantic City for dinner and stopped by the casino to play some slots. It was successful for me. I put in $20 and left with $80. It was so exciting and I wanted to just keep playing but I was on a losing streak and wanted to still come ahead a winner.
Yesterday was back to craziness as usual. We had a morning of crafts and I made a bracelet, which has already broken, and painted an ugly shell. We went to the Hard Rock Cafe for lunch. Everytime I go I think I will get a burger but always end up with the salad. But it is a really good salad. We let everyone do a little bit of slot machines and one of my guys ended up winning over $40. That was exciting and I love seeing everyones reaction when they win. I have a difficult traveler this week in the sense that he does not ever want to buy anything. A lot of what we do is go shopping so he always looks so bored. But I was successful in finding him a bracelet today, one of those made out of the cord. But after that he was done. I had a couple battles with a headstrong traveler yesterday but everything ended up working out and today was much better. He doesn't like being given directions and takes offense even when it is not directed towards him. Last night was the water show and out of everything that was not true on our travelers packets this week, they were serious about one of my guys being afraid of hieghts. It was bad. I did not think we would get him back down the elevator to the first floor. Then our house manager was getting him down and the elevator went up instead of down. Luckily this is one of the glass elevators that makes it easy to see everything around you. The water show was neat and I even splurged and got ice cream with everyone last night, only because they had marshmellows to put in the chocolate ice cream. It is the best!
Today was up early and off to Cape May. Cape May point is still my favorite place. I love the little shops there and the people are so nice and give everyone a discount. I found a hoodie today for only $9! The shops in actual Cape May are usually not very successful but the weather was nice and there a few goodies to be found. Tonight was movie night and we watched the Sandlot. There was only 2 of us, me and my roommate, that have seen that movie. It was awesome and I had forgotten how good it was. We actually had almost everyone down there watching it. Usually we lose a few after the movie has been chosen. I got to talk to my mom and brother tonight. That was good. I miss the family but still enjoying my time here. I am so not going to be ready to go back to classes when I get back home!
