Rare ohioNCLcruiser Posted February 19, 2009 #1 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Hey everyone! Today everything was confirmed..I go back to Hawaii in 7 days then a few days later sign onto the Pride Of America. I will update my blog tomorrow. I'm trying to figure out why I cant get comments. So I'm flying to Hawaii on the 25th and spending a few days there with a friend before I get on the ship. I'll be working at the front desk of the ship so if you are coming on come say hello! I will be trying to update my blog as often as possible but that depends on the internet etc. Another form of media I'm going to be doing is my twitter page. I update it from my cell but they are small updates. Some people might find them interesting. They will say things like "we are pulling into Maui now and have passengers leaving early and some boarding because they missed the ship." "phone is ringing off the hook deck 10 bathrooms are not flushing!" "Going with some crew on a shore ex." etc etc. If you look at the link click "follow me" so you can get all my updates emailed to you in a long list. www.twitter.com/cruiseshipcrew I will also post videos from time to time..answering questions..talking about the job in general etc. Thanks again everyone can't wait to meet more of you! Thanks for the support!! over 100,000 blog views and 250,000 youtube views! my blog: www.shipblogger.com twitter: www.twitter.com/cruiseshipcrew youtube: www.youtube.com/user/cruiseshipcrew.

Ms belp Posted February 19, 2009 #5 Share Posted February 19, 2009 James, congratulations! I don't know twitter, blog, facebook (tried it once I think:)) or any of the modern technology. Heck, I can't even get messages off my cell phone. I just call or answer. But, I do wish you the best and hope you continue to post here, where us old folks that aren't tech savvy (read me) come to check up on everyone. Bon Voyage!:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terrymtex01 Posted February 19, 2009 #13 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Hey James. I'm excited for you, but sad you did not get on the Spirit. You are without a doubt a huge asset to NCL and I can only hope that we get to meet you some day, on a HI cruise or some other one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coasty Posted February 19, 2009 #19 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Congrates James, we will hold a spot for you on the Spirit repo out of Boston this fall. What a shame to be sent off to Hawaii after this wonderful weather in Indiana and Ohio. By the way get ready for more snow. It is coming down here right now.:p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AFT_LOVER Posted February 19, 2009 #20 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Eastern counties go a foot, we got a trace. YEAH! OK James, no longer Jamie since he is over 21, but Epic has your coin & you are due to go to her for that front desk in 2010. Hope my dream comes true for you.

LOWTYD Posted February 19, 2009 #21 Share Posted February 19, 2009 It's been fun following you through the this. It's like a reality show! Enjoy your 5 months and maybe we'll be seeing you on the east cost someday. Sandy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
debjo Posted February 19, 2009 #22 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Hey James...Congratulations are in order...we're so happy for you and ready to read more about your Hawaiian adventures and the P.O.A. You've inspired us to look into a family cruise with NCL to Hawaii in 2011...how's that for advance planning! We wish it was sooner...but who knows...perhaps we'll get to meet you on that cruise in 2011! Debjo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare nunuc2000 Posted February 19, 2009 #23 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Glad to hear you'll be sailing again soon... and hopefully after that contract you'll hit another one right away... like on the Sun in the fall!! :D It would be lovely to meet you in person. :) I hope all goes well and you enjoy yourself immensely!!

drsb Posted February 19, 2009 #25 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Hey everyone! Another form of media I'm going to be doing is my twitter page. I update it from my cell but they are small updates. LOL! I have heard the crew quarters are pretty bad, but I've not heard them called cells before....:) I loved sailing HI on NCLA's Pride of Hawaii, aka Jade. If I go back and try the POA I will be sure to say hi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
