Independence Day!!!

July 3rd 2008:
Ok. Well today i was sent home from work cos i didn't feel too good. So i got alot of rest and slept for most of the day which seemed to improve my energy levels but not really my headache or my headcold that seem to be developing!! I decided to not sit in and mope about though and went to Publix with Luke so i could buy medicine and he could grab some groceries! So we did that together which was nice because we had alot to catch up on and i felt like i could have a real chat with him and speak about alot of things which we hadn't had a chance to speak about before. So it was great to spend time with him even though i was not feeling so good.
Then me,Luke and Jen went to Magic Kingdom to go and see the Independence Day fireworks because we aren't allowed into the parks as cats members on July 4th due to the fact that they get full to capacity.The fireworks were absolutely amazing.They were possibly the best ones i have ever seen in my entire life.They shot them off in 360 degrees around the whole castle and there were star shaped one's and red ones that turned white then blue.They shone stars and stripes projections to make the castle look all patriotic.It was honestly,so beautiful. I love how OTT (over the top) American people are when it comes to celebrating...EVERYTHING!! I really like how they feel so passionate about their country that they go to as much trouble as they do.Had a really great night and couldn't even begin to explain how amazing those fireworks were.Until tomorrow,SAM x

Well today was the big one the Independence Day.And i can't really say all that much about it because i was sick :( Spent the majority of the day in bed trying to get better but will think of something to say at a later date.I may even add in some American facts if you're lucky :P

Repeat of yesterday i am afraid.Spent all day in bed trying to get well although i managed to get up and make myself some food and took plenty of medicine and feel slightly better than before.Think i will be back at work tomorrow so i am looking forward to that cos i miss everyone on the docks!!

I am back at work and happy again :) Feel a ton better although still have a sore throat but at least i am not headachy and groggy now. I hate being ill it really annoys me because its so pointless and i can't prevent it.But never mind, i am back at work today so hooray :D
I had a fairly good day,although it was mega mega hot and i must say for once i was glad of the air con to help me cool off because i kept having hot flushes, it's a good job i am young enough to know it's not the menopause otherwise i would be worried :P
So anywho,it was a pretty great day.Was fun seeing CB and David and everyone.Ryan declared a water war which had me in stitches laughing and also soaked through to my skin but then again it was so hot i think it was actually the best way possible to cool off. Although i am sure the guys were trying to run an unofficial wet t-shirt competition which i am not sure abides by Disney look!! Tut tut! For those of you that aren't Disney Cast Members, the Disney look is basically a set of guidelines about what is and is not acceptable attire and presentation within work.So it's things like earrings and tucking shirts in and all that jazz!
I really had a nice night tonight as well because i sat down and sent alot of e-mails and messages and made sure i had caught up with everyone so that felt good knowing i had made the effort.Then Luke came round and i baked butterfly cakes and we went to Walgreens and grabbed some snacks and sat and had a big ass chat about things which was fun cos we had alot of catching up and gossiping to do :D And it was fun just chillin out with him in my apartment instead of being out and busy. He stayed over too and so we could chat til like 2am which was funny cos normally we have to have said goodbye no later than 11 cos of stupid signing in and out of guests rules, you see he lives at the Chatham buildings whereas i live at a place called Vista Way. Its not far but they have rules about people coming in and out and stuff which is fair enough cos its only for our protection but it can be a royal pain in the ass sometimes.And so then we listened to chillax tunes and just fell asleep,me in a heap on the floor all wrapped up in my quilt and Luke passed out on the sofa! I am guessing we were shattered!!!


July 7th 2008:
Today was a gates shift day but surprisingly it was quite a fun day. It always seems to drag more on gates but i had some funny conversations today and some silly times with other people so that was all good.
First i was a bit sad cos my friend James wasn't happy and i didn't like that he was down so my new mission atm is to check up on him and make sure he is doing alright! He is a but of a worrier and he has every right to be.He is one of those cute guys who you wanna just look after.I swear i sound like his mother when i am speaking to him sometimes,which i then have to apologise profusely for! So that wasn't too good.But i had some funny conversations with a guy called Jake.He was mimicking (copying) my accent and i was coping his.The Americans replace t's with d's so WATER sounds like WADER!!Its funny hearing them try and do my accent though because it sounds so odd on them and they make me sound like a right toff (posh person) which i find hilarious because they exaggerate it so much :D
Then tonight i had a film night with Angelica and we sang along to Grease and Sister Act Two,both of which i love to pieces!!I also did some tidying which i was rather pleased about :) And now my room looks all beautiful and then i think i am going to sit and rewrite my sister a birthday card because it never got to her and then send some postcards to my family and friends!!I haven't had time to do much writing except for this blog so i am going to enjoy sitting and taking the time to write down a little message for everyone!!!I have the day off tomorrow so i think i am going to sit by the pool and do some writing and then maybe go to a park or something.Maybe do a bit of souvenirs shopping for people or for myself if i am in the mood,who knows.
