Yesterday I worked a lunch shift, and served the best customer ever. She worked for sales at Nintendo of Canada! It was great. I totally wanted to kill her and steal her job. I didn’t even know there was an office in Toronto, I will have to apply.At night I was a chaperone for Grad night at Wonderland. Sreng, Veena and I did it for our friend Michelle who organizes the affair.
When we arrived, Michelle was totally stressed out (as per usually with Grad Night). She had locked all the tickets in the safe at school, and had to call the secretary to come and open it up for her. After that, we boarded the buses, and made sure all the kids where on the right buses. This year I didn’t get to do too much because we had another teacher on the bus who took over all the fun roles such as checking the list of names as the kids got on the bus. There were many chaperones this year, even one who toughed me while I was in High school. The bus ride down was very loud. All the kids were screaming in the back, and the bus driver had her intercom thing on, which was also very loud.
When we arrived, things went smoothly, and we all got in the park safely. The first thing we did was go to the chaperone tent and get our Mr.Sub subs. After that we hit up the rides. Tomb Raider (which was great!), Italian Job, and finally, the Mighty Canadian Mindbuster. Yes, this is usually my favourite ride, but this time there was an added level of thrill: total fear. I don’t know if they forgot to oil the track or what, but the cart was screeching like crazy, and at times it felt like we were going to fly off the tracks. It was the roughest ride ever too, it was scary. At the end I was laughing so hard (partial from relief of being alive, partially from fun, and partially from Veena freaking out and wanting off “right now!”) that I nearly threw up! That’s when you know you’re having a great time.=)
After that Veena, Sreng and I ditched the rest of the gang and got a funnel cake.
It was our fourth time chaperoning, and it was great. This year we actually got good weather too!
