the voice
everyday at noontime and at dinnertime, “the voice” comes on to give us the daily announcements. The noontime announcements include current longitude & latitude & speed, distance from the last port and distance to the next port. And then such things as the horrid news that once again we need to advance our clocks an hour or promos for the evening activities. “The voice” is usually played by our assistant dean, Ron. But the other night during the casino night the prize for having the most chips at the end of the evening was a chance to be the voice for the day. One of our workstudy students, Ericka, won the big prize. It was her birthday so her friends all donated their chips to her. Ericka was “the voice” today. She was working this morning & she was very nervous about what she was going to say and how she was going to be funny. We made her promise to do a library shout-out. Ericka was excellent, she sounded totally professional & cool. And she said hi to all of us in the library! We were very excited. Everyone has been commenting on her all day. We had an ice-cream cake in the library the other day to celebrate her birthday. Here are a few photos:
