Hello, hello!
So here it is, 7 days after check in and I've survived thus far. I've been going to work and training like crazy but now I have 2 days off.
So I'm working at the Seas with Nemo and Friends. When I first got the job I was a little skeptical. I hadn't even been in that pavilion since it was the Living Seas! For some reason I wasn't given a discovery day so it was off to the first day of training! I have the sweetest trainer Kristina and another girl who lives in my complex is training with me. I'm so glad I haven't been alone!
But anyway, everyone at the Seas is so nice. I'm only on my 4th day of training and I already feel like I'm apart of a family.
But still, it doesn't help that I'm surrounded by people doing entertainment. I'm not gonna lie, it hurts. I want entertainment so badly that just thinking about it makes me want to cry. When I go up and meet characters or see them in the parks, my heart just sinks. Plus everyone at the seas telling me that I would be a great princess doesn't help either. But anyway, it will happen someday.
And I know Brooke probably doesn't read this blog but I just have to give her a shout out. Her friend Ariel was so amazingly sweet to me. I went to go see Ariel and these three little girls were standing beside me. I talked to them for a bit, found out they were celebrating birthdays and stuff. We talked about all kinds of things until Ariel got there. Then when Ariel and I were talking, one girl asked how we knew each other. Ariel whispered in her ear and then the girls eyes grew wide as she looked up at me. I asked Ariel I was like, "What did you say?". And she told me that she told the girl I was a mermaid too! Once Ariel left us the little girls were so excited to talk to me! I felt like such a princess and it was such a magical moment for me. It was beyond special to be looked at in such a way by those little girls. I just wish it was my job.
But The Seas should be fun. I did my first Turtle Talk show today which went much better than expected. I didn't mess up the spiel and the kids in the audience behaved for the most part. I hope every show goes just as well. As of now, thats my performance aspect. It's not dancing, and its not entertainment but I suppose it will do.
So now I have 2 days off and then back to work again. I have to admit, I feel very grown up living here. Today I worked, cleaned, cooked, and now I'm baking. Oh and I also went grocery shopping. I love living in an apartment and everything. Honestly, I'm so glad I'm not at DeSales right now. Even though I don't have my dream job, its still so much better.
Well my crumb cake is almost done so I should go!
But until next time,
Have a magical day here at EPCOT!
Oh woops....

Second day in Florida...
Thank goodness we have the day off. I really don't know if I could have survived going straight into Traditions or something else.
Well yesterday was crazy to say the least. We woke up at 4 in the morning in order to get in line for housing around 5:30. And we weren't even the first people in line! So then we waiting, went to the bathroom multiple times, snacked on stale crackers, and stood in the rain. It was long but oh well. Then just as my parents were bringing us food they let us in to start the process. We went through everything from housing, to ID's, cars, all that jazz. And the area that we were in Vista, they were playing Disney parks music. Needless to say I was jamming out a couple of times.
Then we found out we were going right onto the 9 o'clock bus for casting. I grabbed my food from my parents and we were off. But I could hardly eat I was so nervous! Well we got there and it felt completely surreal. I've always dreamed of going into that building. It was so beautiful inside. The artwork was fantastic, I wanted to take all of it home! So first I found out my location. I will be working in EPCOT, east attractions! Not my first choice obviously but I'm sure everything will be fine!
So after that we basically did a maze around the building, going from station to station and handing in papers and such. It was very informative but also very tiring. When we were done, all I wanted to do was get out of there! Remember I had been up since 4 AM. So then we caught the bus and headed back to our apartment. Patterson, building 10, Room 10203! I love it, its gorgeous and very roomy. So Kendra and I unpacked a bit and then it was off to the housing meeting. 2 hours of rules, rules, and more rules. The only good part about this meeting was the fact that at one point they played Camp Rock music haha. Not that I didn't appreciate the presentation, but we were all just so hungry and tired! After that, we left, got some dinner, came back and sat on the computer for a little bit, Kendra and I had a mini dance party, and then we crashed. I slept from 10 at night to 10 in the morning. Now I feel great! Can't wait to shower and go shopping!
Tomorrow is Traditions. I have the later one with 2 of my roommates. Kendra has the earliest one all by herself, poor thing. But it should be fun and I will post about it soon! Then Saturday I start training so that should be fun as well!
Wish me luck and I will try and keep you guys updated as much as possible! Let me know if you want me to post any pictures and such.
Have a magical day!

10 days!
Oh my oh my! Is it really almost time to leave? I'm not quite sure I know how to handle this. It's always felt so far away and now...well its just hard to believe!
I don't even know where to start as far as packing goes. I just got back from a 2 week vacation so I had to unpack and do laundry from all that. The vacation was lovely and so much fun but through it all I knew that once it was over, I needed to get down to business! And defeat some huns! Hahah... totally kidding.
But anyway, the next few days shall be crazy. I have lots of errands to run and things to do. Gotta celebrate my dad's birthday and then he will be leaving and driving all of my things down to Florida a few days before I will arrive. So I will have no car, and hardly any clothes and things. Should be interesting! Hopefully I will figure it all out.
I have most of my clothes already set aside to pack. Heres hoping it all fits!
Well, anyway, good luck to everyone who is checking in tomorrow and so on! I can't wait to meet everyone!
I will try my best to update on everything that will happen! I hope to have time after check in to write everything down. If not, I guess I will get to it eventually.
Until then, have a magical day!
