Insane

So, clearly, once training got into swing shit got crazy. I have been working constantly and my next day off is Tuesday. I'm going to summerize what's happened since my last post.

• We went to the House of Blues the other night (free entry on Sundays and free drinks for women until midnight). Crazy.

• I walked the money for the first time on Monday - which was awful - but then I did it again last night and it wasn't that bad.

• Small child in Epcot was miming choking/zapping people and when his mother told him to stop he said "But I'm the Empire!" Classic.

• Adults appreciate Birthday calls from Goofy much more than children.

• Pluto can do a damn good NSync impression.

• "Poncho" is the word and they are $6.50

• Mist fans are still the bane of my existence.

• We need a cork board in our apartment just for restaurant menus and bussiness cards.

• Tired tourists who are inside are much more fun than tired tourists who are outside

• I am much more patient than I thought I was.

• Sleep is still my favorite activity.

Part 2

Today started insanely early. I actually woke up at 5:01 after thinking my alarm was my roomie's alarm going off at 4:45 (can't believe that didn't wake me up, I was out like a light). The bus was there when we got to the pavilion so we got right on. Talked to these guys in the seats next to us - didn't get their names, but one is driving the Monorail. We got to Disney University (which is backstage near the Magic Kingdom) pretty fast, we only chilled in the cafeteria for about 15 minutes before we headed to class.

None of us housemates were in the same class, which was sad, but the other four people at my table were nice. They're names are written in my book. One of the girls at my table is also working at Epcot. She's working attractions, but I don't really remember which ride exactly. Also, Patrick totally looks like Elliot Stabler (Law and Order, what?)

The women who ran the class (Donna and Iliana) were nice and pretty fun. All in all it really wasn't that bad. Most of the videos were nice - although that legal video was crazy boring and the sexual harassment PSA was hilarious. Iliana also told us a story that made me want to cry about this woman who she helped meet Mickey Mouse after she said she had been "waiting 62 years". . . you had to be there.

Anyway, we got out of there at noon and I basically passed out till 4:45 when we got back. Then we all went to CiCi's because we had coupons, which was brilliant. Then we decided to go to Disney's Hollywood Studios for awhile. I gave the tour, we rode Star Tours, sang and danced to random songs in the street, saw a quick show and practiced our Disney Point. I decided to forgo Wendy's Frosty and Fries one of my housemates wanted on the way home because of all the crap I had eaten (cereal, Pop Tarts, Lunchable, Cici's. . .) and we all decided we'll start doing Pilate's as soon as we get a TV. And lo and behold when we walked in the door, there was a TV sitting in the living room. Its all hooked up with cable and DRooVD player now.

All in all it was a pretty good day. Now I'm off to bed - I have to catch the bus for 6:45 again in the morning.

At the beginning. . .

Well I decided to start this blog to keep everyone up to date now that I'm down in Orlando doing the Disney College thing.

I moved in, got registered and oriented yesterday - which was the most hectic day of my life. Disney Casting is like the place that sends you mad. That experience only deepened my belief that there are no straight lines in Disney World. Because the computer just didn't like my pinky finger on my left hand I missed the bus. So I went to lunch with the parents and tried to relax - no such luck, really.

Then there was the housing meeting, where I ended up in front of the air vent. It honestly wouldn't have made that much of a difference if I had been able to sit somewhere else. The whole room was basically a refrigerator.

The other girls living in the apartment are all really nice and I think its not gonna be too bad. There is one girl I haven't really talked to that much, but we do have 6 months.

Today started off pretty bad and stressfull. I had to walk through a sea of gorgeous shoes in DSW in order to find my two pairs of the most boring black shoes you could possibly find, but the rest of the day turned out pretty fantastic. I got some fantastic Mexican food, set up this blog, went to walmart with the roomies (craziness), got a new shower head (old one is shit), set up the new shower head, put away ALL of my stuff and now I am done for the day.

Tomorrow I have to be up and on a bus by 6:45 (ewwy). Then on Thursday I finally start job training and orientation and the insanity really begins.

And because I referenced it earlier, here's my favorite part of the 12 Tasks of Asterix:
