Well it has certainly been an interesting week since I last wrote. We finished Wellsite 3, and immediately jumped into preparations for Job 1. Job 1 is a big deal; about 5% of my total grade for the class. It went......okay. I was the 8th out of 10 engineers, so I had a lot of time to think about the job, prepare for the job, and generally get no sleep. I was winchwoman, and operator, and they take a lot out of you, and then I prepared for my job. Everything went great in my job for the first 3 hours, perfect. Then I started to have problems, which I was expecting to have a few, but still. I took 9 1/2 hours instead of the 8 I was budgeted for. Luckily, just about everybody else had the same experience. :) After I finished finalizing my prints, I talked to my parents on Skype for an hour! Thanks Mom and Dad, I really needed that. I spent all day yesterday cleaning up our unit, our tools, and generally getting the rig back into shape. Today I passed my mid-school exam, woohoo!, I got an okay score on my Job 1 package, and I had an okay review! Now I'm getting ready to go to Dubai for the next two days. :) I can't wait. We're going to the Atlantis resort, and I'm going to sit on the beach and do nothing for a day and a half, and maybe buy some shoes. Only 50 days more to go. I sure hope I can make it through.
