Cruising back to College

Ship Life is a lot like college in a way. Obviously the living quarters are almost identical to a college dorm. But the nightlife really takes us back to those college years. Practically every night, our cast wants to go out and do something. Whether it’s going to a club, party, game night, or just hanging out. These crazy people are up until wee hours of the morning having fun. Whitney and I have gone out a few times but we are never out past 2 or 3 am which is extremely late for us. The next day we hear stories on how some of our dancers only got 2 hours of sleep and they still perform like they got 9. How do they do it?? Whitney and I need 8-9 hours of sleep and sometimes we even get a nap in the day! What is really annoying is the prep time that goes in to these get-to-gethers. On average we will get done performing around 10:30pm and then our cast will plan some event but it won’t start until midnight, because of course, they need to go back to their cabins and shower and reapply makeup and look their best. Whit and I are thinking… umm… why can’t we just wear what we have on and go out now? We’ve come to the conclusion that it’s because the majority of our cast hasn’t experienced college. They’re fresh out of high school or never went thus needing that party indulgent. We feel bad most of the time because we’re like, sorry, no, we don’t like to get drunk and we’d prefer to be in bed… oh about now. HA, at times we’ll say, hey, we’re like grandparents, we like our quiet time and our sleep time!

We could NOT imagine doing this contract without one another.

Crew Black Light Party - woo!
