Event Planner
Why do I work so hard to ’sell’ people on things like Orlando? For as long as I can remember I’ve come up with plans for fun things to do and then work my butt off to get people on board. I wonder where this tendency comes from? I guess I learned a long time ago that great things never happen to you. Parties don’t plan themselves and vacations rarely fall into your lap.
I’m not saying I’m the only person who does this. Burton’s become quite the vacation planner and deal finder and the second road trip to Edmonton was largely Jon’s show. Mindi put most of Mother’s Day together. But it’s almost like I need to have a plan in development. I like to think this is largely a benefit to those around me. I guess I’ve just always felt that things are better the more people partake.
Would Orlando be great with just Mindi and I? Of course. But how much more fun would it be with Jon? Definitely more laughs. What about Burton? Hitting up a club is always more fun with that guy. Sam? Easy going and cool. Josh? Great sense of humour. The more the merrier, not to mention cheaper. We can pool our talents, knowledge, experience, and resources. Plus we can take advantage of team splits.
For example Jon and Mindi like animals, I could care less so Sam/Josh/Shauna/Burton and I can hit the rides while they waste their time with the lower life forms.
