Our first overdone Halloween. It's crazy because for these people Halloween is for adults what Christmas is for Children, and halloween for that matter. Everyone gets excited and really go hard out with their costumes. People spend some big money on their superhero suits that they'll never wear again. Alyson and I left it very late but we pulled off some pretty good costumes ourselves however, and on a budget. I got a clown setup, containing face paints and wig for 5$, thanks to Alyson's prowess with makeup I was one of the best looking clowns we saw that night. Aly was wearing green lipstick and extremely long bird eyelashes. When we went back downstairs the receptionist Mike didn't even recognise us; and we know him pretty well. So I thought it was a very successful dressage effort.
One of the good things during the day was that the hotels put candy out, so everytime we went through reception I got a bit more chocolate, and when we went to apply at some other hotels we got some more also. Good incentives to even apply for jobs on halloween. Also as a treat we bought some of the gourmet every flavour jelly beans, they're so good. I had always wanted them but never really had them, but they're incredible for jelly beans, they really get the flavours very right as well, they must just get the particular sugar ingedient from each other flavour they'r trying to recreate and it shows you that the sugarness is all that tastess so good. As far as i can tell anyway.
Rachel came up from Vancouver, came up with her friend Nadine who she did the season with last year. We went out to a house where there were many more people to meet who had just about all been lifties last year. It was a good night and thoroughly enjoyable to see all the costumes, one of the best was a guy who was dressed as BeetleJuice. Also i can't remember the exact combination but i think i saw a fairy making out with a devil or something, quite funny.
I'm much less stressed because the cinema said that they were quite interested so hopefully i'll hear back from them soon, and Alyson has her trial tonight so hopefully she'll get some work soon. Tommorow I have an interview with the Intrawest company which owns most of the business up here, they run the lifts and mountain and heaps of resteraunts and things. It would be really good if i can get a job with them because you get the pass and things.
Otherwise it's pretty unfortunate that it just rains constantly, just gotta wait for it to turn into snow, very much looking forward to seeing the progress.
This morning we had a sauna before breakfast which is something new.
