Finally finals!

Wuhuuu så har vi både været til free pour og flair eksamen og har haft sidste skoledag, så nu mangler vi  kun bareksamen, drinkopskrifteksamen og teorieksamen!

Som nævnt tidligere bestod vi begge free pour, så der skal virkelig gå noget galt for at vi ikke består det her shit.

Flair eksamen var i går og gik overraskende godt for Frida... og mindre godt for Freja. Vi fik begge væltet lidt af baren.. For Frejas vedkommende vist det meste af baren, men whatever ingenting blev smadret. Muligvis var der blevet placeret en frø i Frejas flaske.. Den havde det i hvert fald med at hoppe ud af hænderne på hende og ned på jorden i stedet (altså: en frø med højdeskræk).Whatever, flair er helt ligegyldigt for alting. Som Alexi (<3) siger: don't flair if you can't flair (oversat: hold jer fra flaskerne, piger).

Nok om flair. Det vigtige kommer i morgen. Vi skal skrive opskrifterne ned til samtlige drinks og vide alt om alkohols historie, produktion, klassifikationer og klassiske mærker. Det vil sige rigtig mange fact,  årstal, navne og steder. Så det jo super.
Til bareksamen skal vi lave tolv random drinks, på helst under 10 min.

Efter eksamen er Frida blevet udvalgt til at stå i baren tik Kos Summer Star, som er et af Kos' største sommerarrangementer. Det bliver holdt på skolen, fordi de har byens største pool. Alle på skolen har fået billetter af papa Lawrence (den alt for rige ejer af EBS, Baya og Kyttaro) som dimissionsgave. Frida skal knokle røven af til lorteløn mens folk slapper i poolen, men det bliver nok meget sjovt og anerkendelsen er sgu meget lækker. Freja skal bare være lækker i sin bikini (og blive smidt alt for mange gange i vandet af neandertaler-hjerne-drenge).
