new phone

so lets see what has happened since I last updated,

- we got a few new cast members in Merch. I will meet them on Friday for they didn’t come to the throw in and when they start training on Sunday I have that off and they they have merchentainment on Monday and Discovery day on Tuesday and then the will be off Wednesday and Thursday for that is when there trainer has off so Friday will be they day I meet them, one is apparently 50 years old and they other one is 23 and married so this will be interesting.

- I actually have a 3 day weekend for one girl wanted some more hours and I wanted a long weekend so I gave her my shift.

- A few of my new Co workers have asked me why I didn’t become a trainer apparently I have taught them a bunch of things with out knowing it, they said I had a very good way of explaining things. so what I figure is that even if they didn’t pick me to be a trainer at least I can still help out the new people.

- I got a new phone it’s with metro pcs and it was $29 and I will pay $60 a month which will give me unlimited everything including unlimited text and call.

will that’s it for now.

if you have any questions or comments let me know.

Cheers;

Good Morning,

Good Afternoon, and

Good Night

Winnie the Pooh and Harry Potter.

So in the last few days I have been working. But here are a few things that have happened:

- I got into the course I wanted, it is a course called “Entertainment Show Production Professional Development Study” (https://www.wdwcollegeprogram.com/sap/its/mimes/zh_wdwcp/students/education/edu_pds.html) when I applied for it they put my name onto a waitlist and then picked the students who have majored in theatre and show production, I have majored in theatre so they let me into the course, It should start end of Sept. or beginning of Oct.

- my room mate is gone for a few days and it was a spur of the moment thing, her husband surprised her for their 30th anniversary, yesterday he came and surprised her at work so she got home and told me she was taking off for a few days so now I have the apartment all to myself which is actually weird  and I know by the time I get use to it she will be back.

- Brazilian tour groups are EVERYWHERE, and I mean everywhere they are at EVERY park and even at the outlet mall that is across the street from housing. Every day they are at Epcot and they travel in packs of 50 so when we make one bracelet all 50 of them decided they want one, even on days off you can’t get away from them you will run into them at all the Disney parks and also at SeaWorld and Universal. We will also go across the street to get to the outlet mall and there will be about 200 of them sitting in the middle of the walkway. 

last thing

- today I went to see Harry Potter and Winnie the Pooh. Winnie the Pooh was a little of a disappointment and Pooh bear is my favourite character. but Harry Potter was awesome, I went to see it in the dine in theatre in downtown Disney, it was cool you sit down pick what you want to eat and you have a call button to call your server and you can call them anytime during the movie except the last 45 min. The were also serving there version of Butter beer but I like to stick with universals butter beer. But I was not disappointed with Harry Potter at all this movie they did it right I can’t wit until it comes out onto DVD which I think will be around Christmas. If you haven’t seen Harry Potter yet I suggest you go out and see it.

Will that is all Tonight is games night and we are going to be doing a scavenger hunt so that should be fun.

Cheers;

Good Morning,

Good Afternoon, and

Good Night.

I am Alive.

Sorry I haven’t updated in a very long time but I am alive and here I am.

So I applied to be a Disney Trainer, and had my interview it wasn’t that long they had 7 major questions, however I didn’t get the trainer position for I apparently wasn’t bubbly enough, so in Oct. there is another chance and I plan on being really really bubbly.

So we have 2 new people and on Tuesday I believe we are getting one more person.

We had a merch dinner so it gave us a time to get to know each other outside of work.

On July 1st it was Canada Day and when I walked into the pavilion I almost cried for the Pavilion was surrounded in flags, there was a flag for all the provinces and territories, and the Canadian flag everywhere you looked. We had Canadians coming in by the dozen (lol ok maybe it wasn’t that much, but we did have a lot of Canadians coming in), Disney set up a special lunch for us, they gave us pizza and the cheddar cheese soup that is served in the restaurant and some mickey bars, everything was as much as you can eat so that was cool. The day made me feel so proud to be a Canadian and also made me really home sick.

On the 3rd I went to the Magic Kingdom to watch their advance 4th of July it was insanely busy, but the fireworks were awesome and my goal is to get all the special fireworks on tape, so that is all the holidays.

On the 4th, Epcot was not as busy as I thought it would be but it still was busy, I had to do the money drop after closing but my manager was really nice and let me and the others watch the 4th of July fireworks first and the fireworks at Epcot were loud and cool after the final the ground was actually shaking.

I went to a friends birthday a few days ago and we went and have breakfast at Norway's Princess breakfast, it was cool when you come in you get a picture with Cinderella and when you sit down you get a plate of food and you also get to go to the buffet and eat as much as you want and as we ate we met a few more princesses, after breakfast we then walked around Epcot before heading over to Magic Kingdom, we then went to the Polynesian which looks like a wonderful place to stay at.

Yesterday I spent the day at Downtown Disney and also went grocery shopping, and today I went to animal kingdom, we are now in the months where we are being over taken by Brazilian Tour groups and they are EVERYWHERE they are at Wal-Mart, they are at every single Disney park, they are at Sea world, Universal and even the Outlet mall across from us. At the Animal Kingdom I was eating lunch and my table ended up being hijacked by one of the groups, I admit though they asked I said they could sit but it’s funny that the group I was trying to get away from was taking over my table.

I don’t work much closing shifts anymore so that means that I should be able to update a lot more often.

That’s it for now,

Cheers;

Good Morning,

Good Afternoon, and

Good Night.
