Weee!!!! Paperwork.

So it is day 2 and I still haven’t really talked to my roommates and beside the quick intro yesterday I haven’t seen them either. I’m giving it 3 weeks to see if I will finally get to know my roommates and if not I might put in for a move. I might have to start feeding random people, I did it my first year of college and developed some awesome friends, who are still friends now; feed them and they will come.

I went to wal-mart and got a bed sheet and food for I believe in bringing your own food for lunch and it will save money.

Oh I forgot to say yesterday, I am in a two bedroom at commons and that it is the highest rent.

Today we filled out a lot of forms; we filled out a employment form, a application for a SSN #, and a bunch of other ones that are for housing, we also got our housing ID so that we can get on the bus, tomorrow we have another early morning to have a talk from immigrations and also bank accounts, since I already have a US bank account I may have made things harder on myself when it comes to the interview for our SSN # I’m not sure yet how but Disney thinks I may just need to bring my Account info with me, i hope that’s all it is.

Tonight I am going to welcome party hosted by the old Canadian people to welcome us new people in, there is no hazing or anything, however it is free food so I am going  

well that’s it for now, between paperwork and wal-mart there wasn’t much done.

cheers,

Good Morning,

Good Afternoon, and

Good Night.

I’m here and I am alive

So Chelsea and I finally made it into Orlando and went to Vista way, they are really nice there and help us with our bag and gave us some water and cookies and some apples to take with us to eat later for we didn’t have time to go shopping (we arrived at Vista at around 9:00 and then there is a hourish talk about housing and what the days to follow will be like. 

Tomorrow I have to be at the common clubhouse at 8:30 for some more meetings, and then I’m hoping to go to wal-mart since I never actually made it there today.

I am in a 4 person place in commons, I originally thought it was a 6 person for i saw 3 doors but one was a laundry room, I’ll put pictures up eventually. So me and one other girl share one bathroom and the other room has there own bathroom as will so that will be nice only sharing with one person.

I meet some of my roommates and I'm not sure how this is going to play out, one i think is from Australia and she seemed nice, she gave me a tour of the apartment and then ran and she said she is sharing with a English girl but I haven’t meet her yet, I am sharing with a girl from Japan and I thought that would be cool because I always loved there culture but I found out she is never home, she was here to eat and we talked a little and then she went to her boyfriends house.  Currently I am here alone and I am getting a small feeling that this is going to be college all over again were none of the roommates talked. It looks like there is a dishes battle going on for I went looking for a measuring cup to fill up my water pillow and every single dish is dirty and it is either in the sink or the dishwasher.  I am too tired to deal with the dishes today but maybe I’ll give them a washing and get things clean again, I hate to say this since I am not a clean freak but even for me this place is too messy, I think I might give it a clean soon so that it is somewhat liveable.

Tomorrow ( will today – Wednesday the 9th) there is our throw in; in the evening so that will be fun.

ohhh, I have a guard kitty, it sits under my window (I'm on the first floor) and watches out, if someone comes close it meows, i think i might get it some treats tomorrow.

well that’s it for now, I’ll keep you informed on the roommates and what is happening.

 

Cheers,

Stuck in Toronto!!!

 

Should have done this on the Calgary plane.                                            Change the Naples to Calgary, the Dubai to Toronto and the Home to Florida and that is me.  

 

Hey guys, this blog is coming from the Toronto Airport which I am stuck in. Last night at 8:00pm I said goodbye to my family for a year and got on a plane for Calgary, got into Calgary early so that was cool, I waited at the gate and then met up with another girl who is going down to Florida with me, we got onto our plane to Toronto and that is when madness hit… first the de-icier has issues and then the plane had a power outage and they had to reboot the system so we were late taking off, we finally arrived at Toronto only to be arriving at the same time our plane to Toronto was taking off, no one told us until we went to security, went though pre-check and customs and no one said anything. Customs was easy to get though I gave them the forms and they just asked some questions, and they they went stamp happy on all they forms putting a visa stamp on my boarding pass, my declaration form and my passport and visa card; the visa card and the passport I needed it on but I’m not sure why I needed it on the declaration or the boarding pass. After we got though customs we went to security where they were about to not let us go for our plane was already gone, they finally said it was ok and to go talk to a air Canada staff, so we found the customer service desk and they put us on the 4:50pm flight, and debated weather or not to put us on stand by for a 11am flight they decided not to and it was a good thing for there was already people who were on stand by and are now on this flight because they couldn’t get onto the 11:00 fight.

One good thing they did though was give me and the other girl a meal voucher for $10 it’s not much but at least it’s something.

So that is it, I’ll update when I finally get to Florida, (if I ever get there ) by that time I will have been in airports and airplanes for close to 24 hours and this was only suppose to be a 9 hour journey.

Cheer,

Good Morning,

Good Afternoon, and

Good Night.

33 hours!!!!

Wow I have only 33 hours and then I will be in Florida, and then I will be seeing palm trees instead of snow.

In 21 hours I will be at the airport on my way, So I am all packed to go,  had to get my mom to repack for I apparently couldn’t get it all in, but she is a miracle worker who got it to fit.

I found out today that when you try to check in at the airport you have to go by the time of your last flight and not your first, so I can’t check in until 7am.

For the last few days I have been trying not to cry, It is amazing how much things I will miss but I know that I will be having a amazing time.

On Friday I worked one last time and on the Thursday I had my last film class, I have been with my mentor / boss for 10 years (since I took the film classes at 16). It was amazing how the relationship went from student / teacher to friends to family. She was crying I was going to start but I’ll hold it all in until the plane.  

My mom and I are going to have our last girls day today, were going to pick up last min items and just hang out and talk, It’s weird I’m actually going to miss just sitting with her and watching t.v and not talking, It’s her company I’m going to miss the most.

will that is it,

In 33 hours I will be in the sunshine state

 

cheers,

Good Morning,

Good Afternoon, and

Good Night

Canada I’m glad you gave me a going away present……

but I want a exchange. I want to give back this weather for some nice weather….. (look out side… see more snow) fine be that way, if you must be evil I will leave (in 7 days).

We are having lots of snow here and it is cold… and I don’t mean “it feels cold” I mean “It is down right cold”.  Couple of things confuse me about the snow fall and that is:

1. For people who were born and raised in Canada, most learned how to drive in the snow and for some reason people forget how to drive in snow, its not as if we don’t see it 10 months of the year.

and

2. It really baffles my might that girls would go out in –33*C weather wearing a mini skirt and a small jacket, common sense says ….. you are going to freeze. 

I got a email from the Disney service centre reminding me to get a Visa stamp when I enter Toronto for if I don’t I would have to exit the US and then renter so I am going to stand there until they stamp it, they will not get rid of me.

Will this is a short blog

cheers,

Good morning,

Good afternoon, and

9… almost 8 more days!!!!

So as I write this it is 10:00pm so in 2 hours it will be 8 more days.

Lets see… what have I been up to, I got my medical insurance though seven corners, I only got 4 months because I am going to be getting the Disney Insurance after.

I got some professional clothing so that I have something to wear during training, I’m also really close to be done packing, by Thursday I should be done.

There really isn’t that much to report,

cheers.

Good morning,

Good afternoon, and

Good night.
