Diary Of Krk I



You're not gonna believe where I am. I am in Šilo, Krk. I'm here for the summer, working as a waitress in a cafe at a diving center Neptun. I know, it's insane!
Jelena is also here, well, she's the one that got me this job. I came last Thursday. I thought it's gonna be unbearable, but it's getting better every day. Don't get me wrong, I'd rather be at home, with mum, dad and Vaki, sunbathing and reading and having coffee with Sole but at least here I can make some money for the college. If I make it in. Oh yes, I'm trying to get in again. You don't think I'm too old, do you?
Anyway, I'm here now and everyone is really kind and helpful. Let's just hope that won't change. I've signed a contract till September 15, but if I find this place or work or people in any way intolerable, I can always go home. All the King's horses and all the King's men won't hold me here. You know I mean it.
I must say, the first few days I cried my eyes out and I was only a step away from packing my bags and taking off but I'm much calmer now. I'm still scared to death, of course I am, you know that, but I'm starting to think this might turn out just fine.
I miss my family though. The worst is when Vaki calls. It just breaks my heart, but I'm getting over it.
Oh, my shift starts in about an hour, so I have to get ready. I love you and thanx for listening.
