Here Together... Friends Forever

Hey Guys


So I have had a pretty crazy week. I thought I would take some time before bed to write down what I have done so far since I have a busy week coming up with July 1st and 4th.
I will be off Canada Day and will be working 10 hours on July 4th so it will be a good week.


This week was my friend Courtney's (Canada attractions)  last week.  It was awesome because most times I do not get to go to be at anyone's last anything but I got to go to Courtney's last Fantasmic, last Illuminations and throw out.

On Monday I stayed home and relaxed until night time when I went out with girls from the Canadian pavilion.

My Pineapple.. Yum

On Tuesday I slept in which was nice and then I met up with Kailei and Katie at DTD. Kailei went to hang out with a friend so Katie and I went shopping and then headed over to Hollywood Studios for Courtney's last Fantasmic. When I was at DTD I had a chocolate covered pineapple which was so super good. We also took a boat over to Old Key West to take the bus to Hollywood.
     When we got to Hollywood Studios we met up with Kailei, Matt (Canada Attractions), Courtney and Lorin (Canada F&B). We had so much fun and although it was sad that it was Courtney's last I am so happy I got to spend it with her. Afterwards we went back to Courtney's house for her throw out :(.

On Wed I had a very short day at work since I went in at 10:30 and got to leave around 3. I got to leave early so that I could see Courtney do her last spiel at the attraction. I was so happy I got to see it and was very lucky to get off in time for it.

    Afterwards Matt and I went to find a gift for Courtney (which she loved). We went and ate at the American Adventure and then met up with a whole group of amazing people and did a walk around the world where we drank, ate and rode Norway's boat ride. We ended the evening with Illuminations.

Next month we will losing some more really awesome Canadians and it will be tough to say good bye (for now) but we will also be getting some more Canadians so there will be good with the bad.

I am going to be posting my Canada Day blog soon so look out for it :)

Hey All

Last Monday and Tuesday I forgot my camera which means that I have no pictures for the first part of the post. Sorry :(

Last Monday was a pretty relaxed day. I did my laundry in the morning and went to get the mail. Later in the day Zac and I went to both premium outlets to do some shopping. I was really happy because I found this really cool dress. While we were at one of the outlets a  huge thunder storm broke out. I was a little worried we would not get back to the I-trolly in time but Zac led the way and we made it home. The rain stopped by the time we got back and since it was Monday  we headed to games.

On Tuesday I went to property control with Kailei, Tori and Katie. Afterwards we were hungry so we took a cab over to the boardwalk and went to the ESPN bar/restaurant. We sat at a very high table which I thought I was going to fall off of. Afterwards we went to Epcot and Kailei did a Duffy Bear around the world. We met up with Zac and we went to Canada kidcot where Kailei colored her Duffy and Tori gave Allison her panda ball (okay she threw it at her which was very funny.) It started to pour rain and thunder so we were stuck at Canada kidcot for a while. When the rain stopped we all went and ate at the electric umbrella. After that we went home tired :(. I went back to my room and relaxed, watched some movies and talked to my family.

On Saturday I was off early so I met up with Julie (who had the day off) and we went shopping. It was so awesome to hang out with her. I don't think I have told the story of how I met Julie so I will take a minute to tell it.

          When I was at the interview in Toronto I was so nervous before hand and everyone around me was talking in little groups so I decided that I was going to talk to someone so I was less nervous. There was a girl in front of me wearing really cool Disney jewelry so I told her how much I liked it and she told me she liked mine :). Then we all went in  a classroom and Julie and I sat beside each other and jumped up and down like little school girls at the Disney videos we were shown. It made me feel so much better talking to Julie that day and so I am super excited to  have her here now:)
  

 Last night for our games this week we went to MK for a scavenger hunt. It was definitely one of my favourite nights. Leah and I were on a team together and we definitely had a fun time finding everything.

 

On a side note my family is amazing because I received a really really cool care package today. There were notes from my mom, dad and sister which is exactly what I have been needing lately. 

 

Also it is my parents 24th anniversary today. I love my parents so much and miss them like crazy :) 

  Happy Anniversary Mom and Dad <3

Ohana means family... and family means nobody gets left behind

Hi All

So I have been here for two months already which is soooo crazy. My feet are starting to really hurt but I am still enjoying every minute I am here.

This month started out on a lower note for me with people leaving and working some longer hours however after my two recent days off I am starting to feel so much better.

On Monday this week I went to Animal Kingdom with Zac and saw the Festival of The Lion King (one of my favorite shows) as well as  it's tough to be a bug. Zac and I had never seen Finding Nemo the Musical so we went to see it and I absolutely love it. I will definitely be seeing it a lot more times. We had snagged fast passes for Everest however it rained so we decided to just head to Grand Floridian to check it out. We had reservations at Ohana's so we walked over to Polynesian from Grand Floridian and I took a picture of the Wedding Pavilion which is beautiful. We got to the Polynesian  a little early so we checked out the pool and I changed into my dress that I had bought at AK. The food and setting at Ohana's is amazing and I loved it! After dinner we went and watched Wishes from the Polynesian beach which was a great way to end off the day.


On Tuesday I got to sleep in which was super cool. Later I met up with Kailei at Epcot where she bought Katie's Birthday present. Once we where done buying Katie's present in the UK we headed over to Canada where I bought Ketchup chips (of course). It is crazy how much you want something when it is no longer around all the time because back home I never really liked Ketchup chips but here I was so excited to eat them. After visiting our friends at Canada we went to Hollywood Studios to meet up with Cam who was also off. We went and ate at Pizza Planet because we were super hungry. After we ate we went to the Muppets show. It was raining like it always does on my day off (and every day ) so we went to Saratoga Springs and caught the bus to DTD and went to the AMC to watch EPIC. I liked the movie however Cam and Kailei seemed not to. On a side note I ate a white chocolate strawberry and a peanut caramel candy apple.

The picture on the left is one I found on Google but the one on the right is the one I took of my strawberry

On Wed I got up early to work at 10:45 until 9:30. For anyone keeping count that is a 10 hour shift. We had four people working that day so it was very long. It was also Matt's (Canadian merchie) last day. I got through the day but it was long and sad.

Thursday was a good day and so was Friday. On Friday I got off at 5 and so did Zac so we stayed at Epcot and ate around world showcase as well as shopped a little. We stopped at Test Track which was closed but we did go and check out all the cars. I watched Illuminations and then we met up with the Canadians just getting off work and we all went to the Yacht and Beach club to catch the bus to  DTD so we could go to the AMC and watch Man of Steel. It was my second movie in a week which made me think about my theater family back home.

Tomorrow I work but I am off Mon and Tues so I should have another new post soon.

Tomorrow is also fathers day so I want to send out a Happy Fathers Day to my Dad and my Papa.

 Today is my Dad's Birthday so I thought I would wish him an awesome Birthday.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAD

Spring Showers Bring... My Family

Hi All

Since I have not posted in a while this one may be a bit too long so for that I apologize.

May was an awesome month for me because I had my aunt, uncle, cousin, sister(s) and friends visit me. I had so much fun with all of them that I am taking today off from some fun (until games of course) so I can clean my room and do my laundry which I have not had time for.

This past month has been very emotional for me so I will start my post off with the sad part of my month. As I have said in my blog before one of my not so favourite things to do here is say goodbye. Unfortunately  we had to say goodbye to a really awesome Canadian and fellow merchie Jodey. Jodey is going to be super missed and although I did not get a whole lot of time with her I know I have an awesome new friend. At Jodey's throw out which is our way of getting free stuff and sending our friends off in awesome Canada fashion she had to pass down a few awards and of course I am now the proud owner of the short merchie award :). On Jodey's last day I went to work in the pouring rain (it rains every day) and watched Jodey be recognized for her awesomeness. After that I had a little time until work so Katie, Shelby and I went to Morocco for lunch (it was amazing). After Shelby and Katie went to work I went and colored at Canada Kidcot where I saw Robyn (Canada Attraction) who is another awesome friend. I made a very cute Duffy and then headed to get dressed for work. I was lucky because I got to see Jodey do her handprint just before I went to work. Shelby and I had to work till 9:30 so we missed Jodey's last wishes (since wishes is at 10) however we raced over to MK in time to ride Jodey's fav ride Haunted Mansion. There was like 16 of us in the group so it was crazy. Zac gave Jodey, Allison, Janice (f&b) and I a ride home so I got to say goodbye to Jodey at home instead of in front of the park.

On a happier note my sister Lauren and honorary sister Abby along with Abby's awesome family came to Disney at the end of the month. It was so much fun hanging out with them on my days off. We went to Hollywood on the Monday and Epcot on the Tuesday. When I saw them on Monday I gave them all such big hugs. I loved going to all of my favourite rides and shows with them. Lauren and Abby were chosen as the key holders at the Jack Sparrow thing which was really cool. I also got to go on the Toy Story ride for the first time. I said goodbye to them and headed to Jodey's last games :(. On Tuesday I met up with them at Epcot and we went on Sorin' which I had not been on yet this year. I also watched Illuminations as a guest which was very different. Afterwards I went back to their hotel with them. They were staying at Art of Animation which is amazing.

Wednesday did have a sad note however when I had to say a tearful goodbye to my sister.

I have made reservations for my family to come in December and my mom and best friend Chelsey to come in August so I am keeping that in mind which helps not being so sad. My aunt and granny are also going to visit in the fall so I will have a lot of family around.

On another note I have not let work keep me from having fun since I went to the movies with Leah (Canada Attractions) Robyn and Alex to see Now you See Me and went to Applebees last night with a group of my friends.

We are receiving at least 10 new Canadians including our two new merchies Julie and Erica tomorrow so I better get myself ready for Thursday's throw in.
