Description
TODAY WAS AWESOME!!!The trainer we met, his name was Andy I think, he let us sit at the slideout during the show AND let us touch SHOUKA! My favorite orca!!!! It was also my first time to touch an orca.
Andy liked us because he knew how much we love orcas! We met him at the park the day before.
I feel like we are the luckiest girls on the planet!!
I could die from happiness. During this moment, I almost did. >< I'm in the pink shirt, by the way. And that's in the black on the other side of me.

I never thought I would have the chance to do that! Especially because the rules are getting more strict. Apparently you can't touch them anymore in places like Seaworld. But who knows, I hope you get the chance to.

I have to go to Seaworld, meet that trainer named Andy, tell him how much I love and adore orcas ans get to touch one!

Oh this is a really old comment but I just found it now... I'm so sorry!! ;;
Andy is at Six Flags Vallejo. Their rules aren't as strict as seaworld's are right now (because of the attacks and stuff). He's a really nice guy, I started talking to him about how obsessed I am and he was like "hey, once everyone leaves the stadium we'll let you touch her!" So, yep, I totally died. Felt like a dream.
If you ever go there, try talking to one of the trainers, they are REALLY nice there! I wish you luck, touching an orca was the best moment of my life so far.

Okay that was an epic fail from my side, since I know Shouka, and know where she lives
Better a late reply than no reply, right?
I would totally love to go to Sixflags discovery kingdom... Only problem is, it's on the other end of the world for me >.<; I'll get there, some day

Yeah it's suuuuuuuuuper far away from me too. So I just save up my money and take a plane over there... ><
I hope you get a chance to get there someday, it's really fun and most people who go there go there to go on the rollercoasters and stuff, so there's rarely anyone at the glass to visit Shouka. Sad for her but lucky for the few humans who wanna play with her. She's soooo interactive.

Haha, you live on the other side of Europe for me 
OMG that sounds even better! (those non-people at the glass) I would love to interact with an orca so badly, and to talk to trainers, and to be able to touch her, and to be able to see an orca agin and... and... Oh man, that place sounds like heaven!

It really is perfect for orca fans, although they have one orca, because there is soo little competition between visitors and it makes it easy to talk to the trainers and stuff. It's my secret place, lol. I went to SWC once, it was great but so many people and the trainers kind of brushed me off when I tried to chat with them. They were so busy, you know?
You gotta gooooo, Shouka would be grateful if you bring toys.

I could already imagine Seaworld being cool, but very busy

The backpack is adorable too XD
Have you ever thought about entering one of those camps or something that help you find a job with these animals? I can't remember anything about them unfortunately b/c I only heard about them all the way back in 4th grade (millennia ago D: ), so I couldn't provide you with any information.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thank you. :3
I did, and I'm planning on doing whatever I can to get a job close to cetaceans, but that would probably require me to move, and I also need lots of money for the schools and camps and such. >< But hopefully someday.

Awe bummer v_v
But yeah, hopefully someday. I can't wait to see how happy you'll be when you get such a job, I can imagine the journal entry already XD

If we stick around on DA for maybe 10+ years, you just might see a journal entry about that. Or something like it. HOPEFULLY.

Aww you must've been so happy. xD psdgajga you look so cutee. xD Did you cut your hair? o-o I remember in that one cosplay pic is was crazy long. xD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
The last time I cut my hair was last june or something, I think. So I'm not sure~
Thank you~ I WAS SOOOO HAPPY! Still am!!! I don't wanna go home!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh. xD I really like your hairstyle though. xD
No problem. ^^ And glad you are~ once again I'm behind on your journals, but is all well now? ><

Oh thank you. XD But I dyed it so many times so now it's many colors. I will dye it again soon to fix that.
Umm, so so~ But the vacation has been great, at least.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ahh. xD It is a nice color though. And the style is cute. xD At a point I was actually growing out my hair to look kinda like yours but decided to leave it at its length because of one of my cosplays.
Well at least you're having a good time. :3
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Aww thank you! Because of mine!? >0< That makes me really happy..
I want to cut my hair but I didn't because of MY cosplays, hahahaha. Long hair is so much work, you know?
I think wigs can look awesome for some cosplays, but in some cases natural hair can make great cosplay results!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah actually. 
Yeah I know what you mean. Years ago my hair used to be down to my knees... wasn't fun to take care of. ><
When it's windy, real hair helps xDD
