Okay so its been a while but I must admit that my life has been a little hectic lately...I went to Myrtle beach and when I came back I had so much going on I was like ahhh cuz I was trying to catch up on sleep as well. Well in Myrtle Beach I may have found something that could DRASTICALLY change my life and the direction its headed...its this place called T.I.G.E.R.S. It's a preservation that allows you a two year apprenticeship to live on the preservation all expenses paid for (except food) and they even give you a car to occasionally drive...not that you'll use it much because you're working 365 days a year and don't get ANY vacation for the first two years and vacation after that is limited...basically you only get to leave to see family and such if time permits...and they consider it a lifestyle...not a career...so yeah. You go in with NO attachements (like in a relationship) and in the summer they tend to work days from 8am till 1 am...crazy long ass schedul no? I mean it's probably right up my alley and I really am at least considering looking into it after tech school. I have to apply though and they only accept like 3 to 4 people a year out of the 400 applications they get. We also found out that you have to apply a lot to show you're dedicated and truly interested in dedicating you life to the preservation of these animals...and they don't have just tigers there they also have wolves...we all know my love for them as well as tigers...and they have an African elephant..and they have three birds of prey and they have ligers, lions, monkeys, just a bunch of different stuff. They teach you to become a trainer...and it takes 10 years to get so far as a trainer. You basically have to be an athelete to train tigers too...so I'm gonna be working out hard core...(if this door really opens for me) so that I'm prepared (not to mention its good for me anyway!) The sadest part would be leaving all my family, friends and even my current job. Because I love them all SOOOO much and just having to go and not really be in contact (except by phone and maybe computer) with any of them would suck majorly...who knows where life will take me but I just know that Im trying to get by...but Im impatient...anyway that's what happened in Myrtle Beach...and I got my picture taken with tiger cubs...which is how I found out all about this...it was an amazing trip and I want to go back...but hey if I lived there I could ahve people come stay with me (maybe) and we could go to the beach! Hellz yes! Anyway that's what's been going on and now Im going crazy trying to get ready for my friend's wedding wich is June 30th but her shower is this Sunday and I have to get her a gift and make a pasta salad for 60 people! YIKES!!!! Well that's about it...I have to go run some crazy errands now so hope you all enjoyed...sorry it took so long to freaking post!
