My next contract

I finally found out my next ship. ☺

I am joining the Diamond Princess Sept 11th. This ship goes to Asia, Australia, and New Zealand. ☺

I am super excited to go back to Australia, and to finally see some of New Zealand. Asia is seriously going to blow my mind I know it. I can’t believe I got this ship.

If I get promoted to Senior, than this wont be the ship I’m on. It’s a grand class ship, which means it has a senior and junior. This is the ship that my senior now came from, and my last senior is going to. So, I get to work with Stephen again. We know how each of us works so it will be good. Jo put in a request to go to the diamond. It’s gonna be a great contract. ☺ Two of my casino friends are going to the diamond as well!! Not Alan, but Robert and Jo. It’ll be great to see familiar faces.

Joining on that date gives me a three and a half month break!! Crazy. So my options are to extend a few more weeks while we are in Alaska. I was talking to the fam and my mom would think it’s a good idea, since I would like to see more or just two weeks of Alaska. I have the option to extend because there isn’t anymore in rotation after me yet. This is a hard decision for me simply because yes, I wanna go home and chill out, but I don’t get paid vaca. Lol. So I have to find a job while home, or go on unemployment. I can go on unemployment…but I wont get much money, and I might get bored. Flip side…I may just wanna chill, but not for three and half months. Lol so I think extending a few weeks will help financially.

I’m gonna tell my senior tomorrow. I’ve been thinking about it hard core.

I mean there are so many things I’d like to get away from ya know.

Oy! Oh well I’m excited about my next contract. ☺

But …if I make senior which my senir tells me is a big possibility I will be trans-shipped and than who know where I’ll be going. Or what else could happen is they can call me when I am on my holiday and say hey we need you here on this day. Which I guess happens often. So who knows. I mean as long as I get to go home for a bit and spend time with friends and fam, and do regular land stuff, and get to go to my friends wedding in July I’ll be happy. ☺
