Thirty
The first night there was fun, Dream and Jane were getting to know each other and shit while I was giggling at them, (though they seemed to like each other so I was glad that I had decided to drag Dream across the country for the summer).
Our first day of work was fun, I was the golf teacher person, (I wasn't too sure about what my job title was, fucking sue me Karen), because I've won a couple of golf championships in my preteens, (which were national championships), Dream was the Dance instructor and Jane was one of the waiting staff.
I was a little bit nervous for teaching my kids, since I hadn't taught anybody before, (I mean no fucking shit there Lacey, I was just 16, well I was almost 17 here but I don't think that makes much of a difference here, you know).
"Miss Bolton, how do you shoot?"
"Henry, buddy, you don't shoot in golf, you take a swig"
"How?"
"Well what hand do you write with?"
"My left hand"
"Right, you need to put your hands the other way around and face the other way"
"Like this?"
"Yeah, now legs shoulder width apart, you lift the club to just below your head and then you take a swing"
So, little Henry applied all I taught him and he took a swing, (I weirdly actually did ok with teaching him how to swing in golf), (I didn't expect to be able to do it that fast is all, as I was a first time golf teacher).
"I did it!"
"You sure did, do you think that you can run me through what I taught you?"
"My legs need to be shoulder width apart"
"Yes"
"I lift the club to just below my head and I take a swing"
"That's right buddy, right I need to help the other children now, ok"
"Ok Miss Bolton"
Anyway the rest of the day kind of went the same as it started, however by the that I was done with work for the day, I weirdly felt accomplished, I guess that it had something to do with actually teaching someone something, (though I could be wrong, as I'm not an expert on anything).
So I got into the room that Jane and I were staying in, and I swear to you that I was fucking wreaked, so I took a nap, (what?, golfing is a tiring affair and I don't sleep that much so that's why I took the nap here, ya know).
So when I was younger we always went to New Mexico for a couple of weeks in the summer, (as Dad wanted us to spend more time outside than we were able to normally as New York City doesn't offer that many opportunities to go outside unless you want to travel to Central Park).
Anyway it was the year that I turned 12, it was sunny, (though it was the fucking desert, like no shit Lacey, of course it was sunny), and we were golfing somewhere, (which I have found out since that it was Lava Springs, so apparently I just have a shitty memory), (also this was not long after I won that Golf title).
"Why are we golfing in this heat?"
"Because it's fun Savannah-"
"You're a kid pro golfer Lacey, of course you find it fun"
"Ha ha Savannah, hilarious even, regardless Dad is also in a meeting with someone"
"But it's hot outside Lacey Lou"
"We're in the desert Savy, it's not exactly gonna be cold out here"
12 year old me was fucking savage, but looking back on it I wasn't surprised about me being a bamf, but Savannah never got used to my bluntness, (even though I had never not been blunt with people around me, as that's just how I communicate with people, ya know babes).
"You know what I mean Lacey"
"No, we're in a desert and we come here every year, it's not like we haven't had time to get used to it here"
"Yeah but it's boiling-"
"It's boiling in New York too though Savy as there's all that concrete"
"Can you stop being such a smart ass?"
"Nah thanks, I like being a Smartie pants"
Yes, even though there was no adults around us, 12 year old me still said 'Smartie pants', because of course I did, (there was a time in my life that I was scared of swearing at all, even though Dad didn't really care as long as we didn't swear in school).
"Chill Lacey Lou, Dad doesn't even care if we swear or not"
"That's not the point here Savannah, I just don't want to swear so much, ya know"
"No, I really don't get it Lou"
"Of course you don't"
