Canada

This blog is about my trip to Canada from February till the end of July. The reason I have this blog is that my family/ friends and teachers can read what I have been up to.
I'll write about my preperations, flight, what I have learned at the internship company as well as any side trips.

Week 13 - Saturday: Day 61

Up early for the next day of Streetwheelers. Today would be the 100 foot dash.
I was quite tired so the first thing I did was not really with a lot of focus. I had to set up the speakers and also plug in the microphone but when I opened the case the supervisor asked me;
What are you doing?
I didn't even know myself, I didn't know the thing had to stay in the case, but I was looking for a way to get it out. The only thing I actually had to do was to plug it in for power. He said I had to think more and be focused, because with this job you can't make mistakes. A lot of people watch you.

I was blundering through the day though. I had to operate the music this time but didn't even know how to operare the mp3 player. Thebutton in the middle was just weird and I misclicked because a normal mp3 player has a normal forward button and not a weird one in the middle to press around.
So he had to show me a couple times how to click it. Ugh, embarrassing moment.
But the rest of the day went alright. Had to play the anthem and a couple of commercials.
Sometimes had to lower the volume because of a loud song, or because the announcer had to talk.
I had to learn to sloooow down when moving the sliders and had to press them harder to make them move better. When not being at the music I tried to film, but this was really hard to do because there were people everywhere blocking the right shots, so I do havesome shots, but not the best. Still can use it for a compilation vid though. The day took long and ended at 6, I was so happy I had earplugs otherwise I would have been deaf now. And I smelled bad due to the smoke XD

I was exhausted when I got home and sadly the house was full with hyper people, but I did play a game with my roommate on the N64 which I had never done before. The rest of the evening wasn't eventful because I had to go to bed early. Had to get up at 5:30.
