Totally Cheating
Sorry I haven't posted the last few days. I've been feeling really strange. On Friday I think I almost died, seriously. It was so freaking scary! I work as a lifeguard at the pool and I was working at the bottom of the big scary slide we have at the water park.
This is a picture of the slide if you're looking down at it from the top. This slide causes so many problems at work. You shoot out of the tube into the funnel thing at the bottom and then you go around and around that part until you fall out of the hole in the bottom of the funnel part into the pool at the bottom. That's where all the problems happen. People are dizzy when they come out of the slide and then they get dropped into a pool at the bottom of the slide that is 7 feet deep and has a strong circular current. People get stuck in the middle all the time and they panic and start drowning, and then we have to go in and save them. Well, on Friday I had to save this man with downs syndrome from the bottom of the pool. He kept pulling me under the water and grabbing at my neck and then the red tube that wee use to save people slipped out from under me and we had no way to stay on top of the water, and literally, we both almost drowned. Usually if we go in to save people, we blow our whistle so the other guards know we are going in for a save and they can help us if we need it. Well, about a week ago, so many people had to be saved from that slide that the people swimming were scared because they though our park was unsafe and they started asking for a refund. The new rule is that you can't blow your whistle unless you really need help. Well, when I initially went in to assist the man, I didn't need help, but he was so aggressive and so strong, and so determined to push me under to save himself, that I really needed help. well, he was holding me under and I was trying to save us both, so I really cou;dn't grab my whistle and blow it. Because I couldn't blow my whistle, nobody knew I needed help. Finally one of the other guards noticed something was wrong and they blew their whistle.I yelled at this guy on the side of the pool that I needed help and he jumped in and helped me pull the guy all the way to the side of the pool and get him out... and then the other lifeguards came to help. Lol I have scratches all over my neck, chest, and back from the guy clawing at me. Well anyways I'm still freaked out, and haven't really felt like eating for the past few days, and it's been a 3 day water fast for me. I'm totally cheating on the Skinny Girl Diet. I lost 3 pounds so far and i'm feeling slightly smaller. Back to the diet plan tomorrow.
On a happier note, I got the job. My first day it Friday at 3 and I'm so excited. Gonna go see some fireworks tomorrow night with my BF. Stay strong everybody.

I Think I Got The Job!
Sorry I forgot to update yesterday! I was super busy with work and gymnastics, and then I spent the night at a friends house. Oh ya! The lady that interviewed me for the country club job called me while I was working today and asked me to call her back tomorrow!!! I'm soooo excited! Random happiness, sorry. I forgot to post yesterday, but everything is going very well with the Skinny Girl Diet. For anybody wanting to join in, just comment on my daily SGD post with how you did for the day. Also, we weigh in on Sundays :) I'm so excited to see how this works out. Basically, I've been surviving on clementines (35) and I found this bag of mixed broccoli and cauliflower in the refrigerator section at the grocery store. Seriously it's a huge bag, and the whole thing only has 120 calories and there's no way you could eat the whole bag at one time. I like to sprinkle vinegar salt and pepper over them, and they are delicious and soooo low cal. I gotta get off of here before the anybody comes home, because I don't want to get caught Hehe
How did today go for everybody?

Skinny Girl Diet!
Day 2 of my new weight loss regime! It's funny, because it's actually day 1 of the Skinny Girl Diet for me. I've never tried this one before, but I'm doing this diet with one of my pro-ana email buddies so it should be a lot of fun! Does anybody else want to participate with us? You can just start up on day 2 tomorrow if you want :) ****Comment on this post if you want to do this diet with us****
I went to my job interview today, and I think it went really well! I showed up at the country club and I had to fill out the application and there was also a one page quiz to assess our knowledge of fine dining so they could evaluate our experience level and see how much training we would need if we got the job. I didn't know there was going to be a quiz! Ahh :o
Thank God for my grandmother. One of the questions was describe a standard place setting from left to right using knives forks spoons and plates. She taught me this along with napkin folding when I was about 7 years old so that I could grow up to be the perfect little hostess. There was also a question asking you to describe what Crème brûlée is. I've made this dessert with my grandma so many times I could describe it perfectly. I turned my application in to the lady in charge and she said she would be with me in a second. A few minutes later she asked me to come with her and as we were walking she said, congratulations, you're the first person to ace my quiz. I was so excited. The interview went really well and I can't wait to hear back from her! I really really really really hope I got this job. It would be amazing.
How was everybody else's day? :)

A Little Moment of Happiness!
So I have a job interview tomorrow for a waitress job at a country club!!! I already make pretty good money life guarding at the pool, but this job would be amazing! I would be working like four nights each week and the cool thing is base pay is $10 per hour and if you have more experience, they pay more if you have more experience. I work in this fancy Italian restaurant for almost two years and was a part time manager. Also, I'm going to be making lots of tips! Hopefully, I get the job :) I want to look nice for the interview, so I went to the store to get some dress pants. The selection was pretty limited, but I found 3 pairs that I liked. I grabbed US size 6 pants in each style and headed for the dressing room. I put on the first pair and they nearly fell off of me. I looked at the tag in disbelief and it said they were size 6 slim waisted!!!! I'm not joking. I could pull the waist of the pants about four inches away from my hips while I was wearing them. They were freaking huge. I tried on the other two pairs with the same result :) I quickly redressed and headed back to the rack to find a smaller size. In one of the styles,the smallet size they had was size 6 so those were out. I found a size 4 in one style and a size 2 in the other style. I put on the size 4 first so I wouldn't be disgusted if the size 2 was really tight and I couldn't get them on. I put on the size 4 and to my surprise, they were still a little loose in the waist and the upper thigh area :)! I put on the size 2 pants and they fit beautifully! Omg they were so beautiful. I liked the color of the size 4 pants more so I went back to the rack, but there was no size 2 :( The pants were on sale though so I ended up buying both pairs. Fitting into those size 2 pants really boosted me up for the rest of the day. I really hope I get the job tomorrow. Wish me luck!
