Adventure is Out There!!!!

Wow! Talk about a whirlwind couple of weeks. I honestly cannot even describe my excitement about being here in Disney and being able to work, of course, for Mickey Mouse. And of course whenever I get the chance to see him now and then, when he is out greeting guests, and of course, representing the company, I get to say "Hi, Boss!" Very fun indeed! So as we all know I am here, living, working, and learning in the magical place called Disneyworld where "even the trash smells like magic" according to my roomate Robin. I had my introduction to the company, got to move into my lovely apartment in Patterson (On the first floor by the pool!) and have gotten to have an awesome time getting to know my roomates, people in my classes, and my training group! Before all of my training started I got to have a great day visiting the parks for what I felt like was the first time. i honestly can't remember the last time I visited the parks, except for a few special memories like: meeting with Max, Space Mountain, and of course meeting Dale at Chef Mickey's! So getting to go the parks was like a whoooole new experience for me. And it was awesome!

My friend Jake actually got me a First Timer pin the first time we went to Hollywood Studios! It was so sweet! I've had a blast and I'm glad I got to see the final days of Star Wars Weekends.
And when we went to see Dream Along with Mickey it was actually canceled! So the characters did meet and greets and I got a chance to take pictures with Snow White and Prince Charming!!!!
Anddddddd Blogger doesn't want to post anythung else right now sooooo I'll post another post later with more!!!

Check In!

I can't wait to see everyone at check in tomorrow! And I just want to say:

Here!!!

Just arrived in Orlando with check in tomorrow! The drive was a fun one with my Dad we started in Beaumont TX, and drove on I-10 all the way to I-75 to Orlando...taking a nice little detour on Highway 27. A very fun scenic route...with a stop light every mile. Good times! In Baton Rouge we ran into some severe weather:
But we skirted along the outside. But it was a lot of fun we took Highway 90 for a little while starting at Gulfshores and ending at Biloxi MS! Where we stopped to eat at Hogs Heaven BBQ and Blues! We scarfed down that food like there was no tomorrow. We ate a giant plate filled with a ton of food plus a free dessert that I found out of a coupon book and we finishied it all! Talk about some fun! Then we kept going and ended up settling for the night in Pensacola. That morning we got to get up and go to the beach, as you can see:
In Mississippi we went to the welcome center and lo behold NASA!!! I, being me, with the nickname Spacegirl, was super excited!!!


How cool is that right?

Anyways I am super excited for check in tomorrow! I am meeting up at Vista with my friends at 7:00 in the morning so it should be fun! I can't wait to check in and start my Disney program experience!

Four Days!!!!

Wow Four Days left until I check in for my DCP! I can't believe it's that soon! Tomorrow I'm flying to Texas to begin my fourteen hour trip to Orlando. Now let me just point out that this is my car:
But not this color. Anyways I have to fit all of my stuff for seven months, plus me and my dad into this car for a fourteen hour trip. Ohhhhh boy it's gonna be an adventure. As far as I can tell I'm pretty much packed, so now I just have to find some way to squeeze it all into my car. I've already informed my dad that he might have to be strapped to the roof for everything to fit! Haha It should be a fun drive though! I can't wait to meet all of my new friends and my roomies. And I can't wait to start character training! And meet all of my new best friends ;)

Hmmm

Well...here's the thing...being at home has made me epically fail my Disney Countdown. It was much easier, earlier however now I am busy with you know, packing, hanging out with my family, solving world hunger, you know, the usual stuff. So I have decided to put the countdown on a hiatus and instead talk about...everything else! First up I saw the new pirates today! Can I just say that I looooved it! I was a little worried without them having Elizabeth or Jack in the film, but I think they did swimmingly and I already can't wait for the next installment so Four Stars for Pirates!
Next I really just don't think I can express how excited I am for Disney! I've been excited for this for so long and now that it's only Five Days away from check in I'm getting so excited! I can't wait to start the next phase of my journey...so to speak. Well anyways that's all for now! I'm just gonna slide on out of here!

Procrastination

Ok so if you haven't noticed I am obviously a huge procrastinator when it comes to this whole blogging thing. However being home with my family has kept me happpily distracted. However I DO plan to catch up on my wonderful countdown to the DCP by doing a condensed version of all of the past days that I have so wonderfully missed.
Ok so number one is My Favorite Kiss!!!! Ok well this is a toughy but I think my favorite would have to be:
It's just so cute!!!!!!

So number two out of the procrastination catch up is The First Movie I Ever EVER Saw... that was made by Disney:
That would of course be Dumbo! I loved this movie when I was a kid, creepy elephant marching scene and all...

Ok next up on the list is My Favorite Classic:
Lion King!!!! I love this movie so much and it's one of those that I could watch again and again!

Next up is my least favorite classic. Now this one is easy:
I honestly can't stand Pinocchio! I just don't like it and really don't think I ever will. It's creepy and I don't like the donkey people, and I really don't like the idea of getting eaten by a whale!

Next is My Favorite Pixar Film. Now this one is hard because there are so many that I like. Now the one that I've watched the most and absolutely love, so I think it will have to win this round is:
Finding Nemo!!!! I love this movie!

And lastly on my catch up days is My Least Favorite Pixar Film. Now this is also really hard because I honestly like all of the Pixar films. But if I had to pick I would say that my least favorite would have to be:
Ratatouille is yuck. I really just don't like this movie very much for some reason.

Anyways...that's all for now and hopefully I'll be much more productive on this in the near future!

Day twelve and thirteen...

So I am obviously becoming worse and worse with these progressive posts. I need to step up my game and stay on top of it! Ok so coming right up is my favorite villain sone and my least favorite song ever!
Ok so first up is my favorite villian song. I would have to say, by a new favorite would have to be Mother Know's Best from Tangled! I love this song and the character herself. She is so horribly self centered, it makes a good story! So of course coming right up the Youtube video for Mother Knows Best:
Now stepping right up for the winner of LEAST FAVORITE SONG! This is a difficult category with some pretty good competitors but I would have to say the worst one of all time would have to be Trust in Me from the Jungle Book. Not only did it scare me as a little kid, but it's just not the most appealing song in the world. So winning this round with Trust in Me, Kaa the Snake everyone:
I just want to let you all know I am so excited about coming to Disney World! Every day that it inches closer I get more and more excited! To hear people's stories about check in and everything just makes me want to get there faster! I'll be there soon Disney! And guys guess what?! I'm done with school till January! It's so crazy!  High Five!
Thanks for the High Five Emma and Daniel! Much appreciated! I also enjoy the little skip there at the end...
