What about what now?

This is what happened (or actually what is happening) after my previous blog. I loved writing down everything I could remember and that's actually the only reason why this blog was born.

My previous blog was started for my schoolwork when I was training to become festival assistant and I didn't have the heart to delete it, so it also became my blog for later schoolwork about learning travelling. It also has some more personal posts about places and my work as bartender.

And as the name says, it's time to put my leather jacket blog behind (I still wear leather jackets tought) and turn a new leaf; changes are that from now on I'm writing in English and this blog is much more personal, more me and less school or work (even tought work is life and I won't stop learning until I die...).

So before you bore to death; hello new readers and (short of) welcome back older ones. My name is Hanna and I will be your future guide. To keep my mind steady I have my cat Kingi and sudokus ready for what's going to happen.

Better late than never

I am really sorry, I haven't even remembered that I still have a blog! Whoops.

I think it's finally time to look what's real; me becoming a guide is seriously taking a d-tour to the bartending, since I am no longer just an extra. This has been the deal for over half a year, my trial period has ended some time ago, so I'm literally part of the dream team.

I'm sure, that someday I will become a wilderness guide, but I'm pretty young, so I still have time to change my mind about everything like thousand times. I think of my life like I would be a Sims-character; I have bigger and smaller dreams and hopes, which I pursue if I can; timing, experience and my will are the things that matter.

Bar tending gives me so much. I'm part of the dream team, I learn new things on daily basis. Latest, most interesting thing was whiskey tasting, which I have never seen or been part of before. I'm a lucky person for being able to do something that doesn't feel like a work. One of my favorite customers (although could be considered as a decoration) said the best compliment in my books; everyone who come and see me working can say that I love my job, no doubt.

I've had one panic attack this spring. Considering how much under stress I have been, I consider it a win; just one! I also applied to study bartending. I will learn more about my so called weaker spot; drinks. Working in a bar which main product is beer and whiskey, you don't remember drinks that well, so I wish to add my knowledge. 2,5 and few moths more behind. Small pieces of happiness; I get tickets worth 5 € which I can use in cultural and physical tings like gym, cinema, some fun parks etc.

I also have my first paid vacation. First one ever. Okay, technically I had paid leaves in my time in factory, but I mainly used them so I could pay rent, so I had "vacations" on weeks I didn't have work. But I could be called in later that week, so I and my boss worked them out afterwards. So it wasn't real vacation. Now I can relax. Two weeks in August, first week in Germany, small town of Wacken. Metal festival I have been waiting for a year! My weird Wacken-dreams have arrived already.

So that's what's up with me. I'll try my best to write more. But then again this reflects me the best, having times when I write a lot and then silence.
