The Countdown!

They say time flies when you're having fun; I must of had fun cuz i only have a month left. I never saw anyone famous, but i did see a ton of great stuff. I met people from all over the world, made new friends had some laughs, and learned a lot about myself. I was talking to a friend from upstairs and he was saying the same thing. He and I both found that being put in a totally different environment than we are use to didn't change us, it just allowed us to find who we really were away from influences from home.  It's nice to know that i'm being myself even away from home. 

On a sad note, 3603, the room i live in, lost 2 people in the last week. Kevin, got terminated for having alcohol in the apt, and then the roommate that turned him in, and his actual roommate, Jordan quit and left today. So there are only 4 of us here now, kinda sad, kinda empty, but losing Kevin so suddenly has brought us all closer and we have hung out and goofed off alot.

I saw New Found Glory a week or two ago. It was really good. The House of Blues was really neat. I met the band and got my ticket signed by them all after the show. 

On another sad note, Space Mountain closed down for 6 months. They are gutting the building and rebuilding. It should be great when it's done, but it'll be sad to never ride it again while i'm here. I did get 3 good rides in the last day it was opened though. With Space Mountain closed, this should give me more time to ride other stuff that i haven't done yet. One of those is Dumbo, believe it or not, i have never gone on Dumbo and have been here for 4 months and several times before. My goal is to ride everything at least once. I just have a few things to do so it should be hard. I'm also working on attending a tech rehearsal for my favorite nighttime show Fantasmic! I hope that works. 

Last week i went to Miami. It was as great as it sounded. Warm weather, sunny beaches, great food, and well, Miami. I have decided that if i moved back to Florida, it would be by the beach in Miami, and not to the Orlando area. Orlando is nothing but touristy shops, and crowds. Miami is laid back with beaches, restaurants and shopping all in five minutes of each other. One of many funny sites of the trip, a mental ward with a sign hanging on the building that read, "It's crazy in here".

I'm getting super pumped to see friends and family. I won't know where to start telling you all about how fun this is and has been. Also, it'll be nice to just see all you and see whats new with you. Thats all for now, hope it was a good one. See ya soon. Miss ya.

Hello Again!

They wanted me to pose, so I did my best.

Ok, lets see,..... what have i missed telling you all? I've been doing a TON with people from work, both on my days off and days before i go to work. We went and flew a kite a few days ago, we normally eat B-dubs on Thursday, watch Wishes at the Magic Kingdom, and we even get food at Wendy's after work at like 1 in the morning. I rode in the front of a Monorail the other day, great fun for sure, you can see so much more and is a lot of fun seeing the track and the other trains coming at you. I went to the pool with people from work and found out how quick you can burn down here, but man it'll be a nice tan when the pain goes away.

I ended up staying at the Boardwalk and not moving to Blizzard Beach. now that the weather is nice, i have a new position to work at; outside on the boardwalk is a pin cart for all the Disney pin traders, It's a lot of fun cuz i get to wear glow toys and interact with guests more and the outfit, shorts and short sleeve button up, isn't bad either. Things are starting to get busy around here, the parks are worse than the resorts, but you can tell a slight pick up in the crowds. I'm getting about 35 hours a week which is good, but compared to my roommate that works in the park who is getting close to 60, it makes me wish i worked more. I may pick up shifts in other areas, but not sure yet.

Like i said earlier, i had a ton of fun with my family while they were here, we got to see alot and enjoyed the weather together. I'm getting really excited for May 6th-9th, rumor has it a wedding/party will be taking place in Oklahoma around then, and i won't be missing that. 

Church is still great here, very, kind and loving people. People are always asking how work is going and are glad to see me when i am there. The preacher announced today that by the end of June he and his family would be moving to Texas to be closer to family, so thats sad, but understandable, i'm doing the same. 

I'm super pumped for New Found Glory this Friday! It should be a rock'n show. Time here has gone by so fast, wish it could be longer, but it'll be nice to see friends and family and be home soon. Sad note,..... Space Mountain will be closing this month for the rest of the year, they are gutting the building and redoing it. It'll be missed and i won't even be here for the whole time it's down, but that month will be killer sad. Also, the other night i ate at T-rex, a dinosaur themed restaurant just like the Rainforest Cafe and got one of the best meals i've had while i've been here. I got Mahi Mahi crusted in parmesan and served with grilled shrimp on top all covered by a white buttery lemon garlic sauce, it was and is to die for. I'll have to get that again before i leave. worth the $20 bucks!

To clarify about the twitter box,... Twitter is like a Facebook status, thats really all, i can post a update, picture or link to a video/ website. So if you just can't get enough of stalking me on this blog, check out my Twitter all throughout the day. That should be all for now,.... i think. 

Miss you all, and see look-a-likes of all of you all the time.

Quick update!

Hey all, sorry its been so long. I'm about to head out to Epcot for the day before work, but was going to try and give an update. More to come soon.  Notice on the right side a twitter box, i'll update that several times a day, so you ALWAYS know what i'm up to. I had a great time with my family a few weeks back, and made me realize that although its so fun down here, i'll be coming home this summer and not extend my program. Still having a blast, and enjoying the sun. Oh and i bought tickets for the New Found Glory show here at the House of Blues, so that will be fun. More to come soon! 

Miss you all.
