Perhaps most exciting, I met all of the other "Yoyo Pros" from all over the country, there are 17 of us. And yes, "Yoyo Pro" is my new job title. Ghost Host to Yoyo Pro. It seems to only be getting better. Everyone was really awesome and very welcoming. Most of them had just gotten back from Australia, which has made me more than pumped to go in the future. Only a year to wait.... A lot of the other girls seem to be my age, or close to it, and a few of them only started six months ago. This gives me a lot of hope, because when I was first introduced to the company, I thought everyone else on the job had been doing it since I was in High School...it's really good to know that I'm not all alone.
Yoyo tricks are hard stuff man. My yoyo hand is swollen and bruised...and I have a bit of a bruise above my eye where I whacked myself with a yoyo yesterday. I did learn some new things, and I feel A LOT better about doing my tricks in front of other people. This time around, I also learned to make a balloon hat and how to pull 15 feet of colored scarves out of my mouth. I know- Hold the phone- I can now do magic. I also got a company phone and a company credit card which makes me feel like a bit of a grown-up- no more chasing trolleys around Boston to get credit cards!
Now my plane is about to board, so I must cut this post shorter than intended, but I am sure I'll write from this same place again not too far from now. It's back home to Boston for the rest of the week, then I return to the west on Monday. xoxo.
