the night i sang karaoke WHAT! WHAT!

it was kyle's birthday, so we went out to "the pit" which ill describe later fully. this isnt his actual smile hahha, we both did faces.. my clearly is the best, but i was passing his birthday drink to him. when youre in dawson and its your birthday you get free drinks from all the bars.

this is keirston his sister singing. shes actually good, she went up a few times. i didnt get a picture of all of us up there which is a shame. but yea.

enjoying some yukon gold. at the midnight sun bar and hotel

me and shelly

ok, so this is "this pit" which basically describes the bar itself. there is christmas lights up year round, and its just a really grungy bar. but its fantastic because of those reasons.

the night i sang.. was an epic night. my first time singing so of course i had to sing the only song i would sing karaoke to: journey - dont stop believin'

a failed attempted up the dome....

this was the fox that we seen once we gave up and started heading down. it was so skinny i dont know how it was still alive!?

the champion celebatory drink. even though we only completed about 1/4's way up...

yeaaa son!

copying kyle. failed, but good attempt.

the view when the sun cleared up for about 5mins. it was so hot and humid.

so long story short, for the first day of summer dawson has this massive party on top of the dome, which is a mountain with a landslide. anyways it quite the hike up and ive never done it before so i thought the party was a great chance to start. it almost killed me. i was so out of breathe and hot that i thought i was going to go into cardiac arrest! the group that we started walking up with actually just left us because we were so slow, which made me mad because we didnt know the way up. so i decided to lead our group of michelle, kyle and myself. team of champions. man i was on a role, i was just motoring up the hill. taking one for the team and breaking spider webs with my face, walking right through puddles soaking my feet. at that point i just didnt care, i was soaked anyways from the pouring rain haha. all in all it was goodtimes, even though we took the wrong trails and didnt make it up the dome anyways haha.

update: i need a pedi

My feet have been hurting so bad, so I decided to shave my feet and give myself a self pedicure. There was like chalky feet dust everywhere. I probably took a good layer off my feet, Ill be able to feel a feather now. Hopefully my feet wont stink as much, its crazy because I change my socks AND wash my shoes everytime I do laundry. I have a problem.

So I had a moment of weakness today while making beds. I stopped half way through and actually thought about just leaving the hotel ahha. I am so sick of making beds and cleaning dirty bathrooms! I swear Im coming home with deformed feet, back problems and my wrists are probably gunna be curled in; I actually caught myself with my wrists curled in at lunch last week. My god. The work is terrible, plus working 2 jobs, I never have time off. Also, I called in sick today because I didnt want to go into my other job, so I went out for supper haha and pretty sure I saw my boss at the table behind me. Oh well what can you do right? But I wont get into that now.

The Simple Pleasures in House Keeping

1. walking into a room and finding the only ONE of the two beds have been used - meaning you only have to make ONE bed


2. walking into a room and finding that yes, both beds have been used.. BUT! the hospital edges of the bed are still in tact from the day before so you dont have to fully make both beds


3. as youre cleaning a room you walk into the bathroom and find that the tub is dry as a bone, YES!


4. as youre cleaning the bathroom there is no HAIR or SOAP SCUM in the tub - meaning it will only take you about a minute to clean the tub instead of 5


5. another bathroom one, you walk into the bathroom and find the toilet seat is down... this usually means "something" is being hidden.. but instead nothing is in there thank god and it was just down for the heck of it


6. there are no tooth paste spit clumps in or around the sink


7. you dont have to vaccume a room, there are really no fluffs on the floor and you can just pick up the little ones that are


8. the remaining toe nail clippings that mr.smith left on the floor, that are astonishingly long, are only in one spot on the floor.. instead of skattered here and there


9. you have 11 check out rooms to do and some amazing soul has made some of your beds for you <3


10. there are no tooth paste of soap spots on the mirror, infact you dont even have to wipe it!

15. one of the cups havent been used


16. their toiletries such as the shampoo soap and conditioner (amoung other things) havent been touched in the stupid get up we have to put them in. therefore you dont have to do them up all fancy again

18. theres a tip, even if its in american $

22. there isnt a lot of garbage, so you can just dump it into one bin


23. fruit has been left behind for you to eat or basically any food in general really is fair game


24. packets of sugar havent been dumped on the table for the heck of it


25. a pile of clothes is on one of the beds so you have an excuse not to make that one


26. there arent any stains on the sheets so you dont have to hunt for new ones for the same person during a stay


27. people dont want their rooms done and only ask for coffee or new towles


28. you dont have to clean a crappy toilet.. litterally
