~:[CH5 - Day 351]:~ From Start to Finish

While I have a number of activities to go through the week, I got through the toughest stretch already which allowed me to relax and sleep last night. I had to wake up early again today in order to head to school for the Stussy Sale. It always is a challenge running the sale because it's not about simply doing our job, but making sure we do it well. It's always hard to get the workers to make sure they do their job instead of shop, but it was great to have them take care of everything and leave the parking lot area we used cleaner than when we started! We locked the gates up and headed off. I wasted a bit of time before heading to our captain's dinner at BBQ Night. I always look forward to eating here because it has much better service than most places and the food quality is pretty good. Of course, if you don't come at the right time, you will hit loads of crowds. It was great to see a few alumni working there and catching up. The gift exchange was perfect as we hit no dead ends and the gifts were excellently planned out in the limited amount of time that we had! At the end of the night, a detour took me into Forest Lawn and since I was there, I ended up stopping to visit RNR. I had never visited during the holiday so it was cool to see the tree that was there with her baby picture at the very top. Even in the pitch dark, it was worth the visit. One of my captains was able to visit the site for the first time and that moment truly wrapped up this day for me as I took a few steps away to allow them to have their moment. I was exhausted when I got home, but I relaxed a bit and while I have a few things left to do, it pales in comparison to my schedule the past few months. It's time to relax, enjoy, be merry and simply smile - it's holiday time!
