July 1st 2008:
Work today was pretty funny. I was dangled over the lake by CB and i honestly thought she was gonna throw me in! It all started because i found this fake slug that the fishing guides use as bait and i was like "Hmmmm what should i call him?" and then CB came walking down the dock and i said, i know i will call him Elvis,because as i have mentioned previously CB is the most obsessed Elvis fan i have ever met. She says Elvis is her first husband, i am not so sure what her "second husband" feels about that but i am sure he doesn't have much choice :P So anyway no sooner had i said Elvis,she had me dangled over the lake going "Whats his name?" and i was like "Not Elvis...erm...Edgar!" It was hilarious!!!
I love work and the people there so much, i really am gonna miss then when i leave!! But i know i will deffo keep in touch with them because they are like my American family :) I am pretty tired of work atm though because i have had seven days with no break and i am scheduled for another two before i get my day off on Wednesday. I am soooo shattered and i feel like i might get ill soon,yano when you just feel your body shutting down! Fingers crossed i don't though because i am sooo excited about being at work and at Epcot on 4TH JULY,INDEPENDENCE DAY!!Because i have never celebrated it before and i think it will be awesome, and its coming up pretty soon :D
I was in a mixed mood today.It was my Nana Ross' Birthday and i missed her and my family alot today.HAPPY BIRTHDAY NANA,I LOVE YOU <3 Isn't it funny that really our birthdays are just another day but they seem to hold so much power over us when it comes to emotions.We are happy when our birthdays are good and we're with the people we love,we're sad when we're apart from those we wish we could celebrate with.We're excited by the prospect of what will happen and sometimes disappointed when things aren't what we expected.We're fearful of the later birthdays because they remind us of our age and we're anxious for those big birthdays that change things we can do in our lives like drink alcohol and be married. Isn't it funny that when you think about it,everyday is a birthday for someone,but to most of us it's just another day?!
I am in a bit of a philosophical mood as well today,in case you didn't already work that one out. I am quite sleepy from working so much and i am really looking forward to a day off tomorrow. I had a busy night tonight though. I was supposed to be meeting a friend in Epcot but my phone broke and so i had problems finding and contacting them.But i found my friends Jen,Luke and Ashleigh and we had some giggles walking round.We were in Epcot because it was "CANADA DAY" and all three of them are form Canada and since they couldn't celebrate in the real Canada ,they figure the Epcot version was the next best thing.It was my very first Canada day and i have to say it was a great one. I hadn't seen Luke in what felt like forever because he went home for his sisters wedding,which i hear went beautifully.so Congratulations guys, i hope your marriage is as special as Luke tells me you are :D
So me,Jen and Luke were reunited and that could only mean trouble,when we are together you know we will be laughing and giggling for hours and true to form we had such a good night!! I ate my first "snow cone" which is shaved ice with flavouring on it,it was delicious. And we watched the Epcot fireworks, "Illuminations" which was stunning.We laughed so hard i think my tummy got a full work out and we made memories that will stay with me forever. Then when we got home we settled down to watch "Moulin Rouge" and then i decided to run to my apartment to get my glasses and to tell everyone i was safe and where o was because obviously with my phone being stupid and not working i couldn't text anyone to tell them i was ok. So i got to my apartment and realised i had left my key inside and that now i was locked out,and of course because it's my luck there was no-one in. So i crashed on Jen's sofa for the night,which was surprisingly comfortable!!! :D
July 2nd 2008:
Today was sooo much fun.I had my first day off in 9 days!!!So me and Jen chilled out all day by the pool and then at four when the afternoon storms hit,we sat inside and watched movies!!"You've got mail" & "Father of the Bride", it was a movie day for sure.After we watched both of these our friend Matt came round and was dying to go watch the new movie, "WANTED" so we said we would go with him.While on the bus we concocted a plan for our lives. You see there are four of us, Luke,Matt,Jen and Me and when you put us together,we have nothing but fun. I don't think we ever stop laughing and just being big kids and i love it!! So we were saying that Matt and Jen should get married and have a kid and then Me and Luke should get married and have a kid and then our kids should get married!!And we'd all holiday (vacation) together in Disneyland each year. It was the funniest conversation ever, because we were discussing the terms of the marriages and the baby names and the weddings and the honeymoon and it was like something you do when you are in year three (3rd grade?!!basically when your a little kid)!!! It was hilarious and if you knew the way we were when we are together you would understand.
We're all pretty quick witted and some of the comments we come out with are classic! The amount of daft innuendo's we make a day, i wouldn't even wanna know how many there are :D But i love everything about the silliness and fun we have together and i honestly can't imagine life without these guys now!!
We are planning trips to see each other already,fingers crossed in Easter Half Term (SPRING BREAK) which will be pretty amazing because it means i will get to see them all again,but it makes me sad to think that i won't get to spend everyday being nothing but a giggling child.Going back to hard work at university and the stress of a "normal" or should i say "non-disney" life, just feels odd and i can't imagine it right now. I know that must seem so crazy since i only came here on May 25th but i guess being here feels like another world,which really it is. I don't,however, think i will stay here and not go back to university. I want my degree before i move away from home because i owe it to myself and to my family to finish and get my teacher status. I know that Disney is my dream but teaching is also my dream and i don't think i should have to choose between the two, i can have both i just have to be patient and wait for Disney!! But i mean i managed to wait nineteen years to visit here so i am sure another two years of university isn't gonna seem like anything compared to that :D
Talking of university, i found out today that i have passed my first year, and i did alot better than i expected to so i am extremely happy about that and i am really looking forward to next year now and to living with Lauren in our new place and everything!! It has reminded me that my life outside Disney still exists and that it is gonna be pretty great when i get back!!!
Anyway...back to the film with Matt and Jen. So we got to the cinema and saw the advertisement for another film, "Hancock" starring Will Smith and because we were in a pretty comedic mood we decided to go with that one instead. It was such a good decision,that film just finished an amazing day off perfectly.Some of the one liners are pure genius,for example at one point Hancock has just crushed a train and this man says "she oughta sue you for that" and then Hancock (Smith) goes "Well you should sue Macdonald's cos they f****d you up" (cos the guy is fat). I was killing myself laughing! It was such a good film and the soundtrack was amazing!! I just really had a great night out with some amazing people and today was one of those days that you remember for a long long time.
