December 11 2005
:: disclaimer :: i stole this
I am a Disney CP. Yes I lived in Orlando, and yes, it's shady and skeezy - but just thinking about it makes me smile.
We dont call it Orlando, it's O-town or 32821, get it right
We
go to the parks everyday and make damn sure we get backdoored onto the
rides. And yes, getting backdoored is the best thing ever.
We go to Wal-Mart all the time for no reason, and bitch b/c Target has a closing time.
We could be from Alaska or Maine, but we still went home saying "ya'll." (this one is my FAVORITE cuz it is so true)
We know what TTC, DAK, PI and all those fun things stand for.
We've had to pop our trunks for security
We know what Vista Lay means.
We compare our ID pictures
We love going to the Vista Pool, but we'd NEVER go in the hot tub
We've been to Bdubs and Ale House at least 3 times a week, with at least 10 other people.
My car STILL has sand in it from Cocoa Beach.
We ruled PI on thursday nights.
We have friends in almost every country.
At
least 100 of us can never work for disney again because we got fired
for drinking in our apts or stealing stupid Disney stuff.
We've almost been hit by a Dynamic bus at least 5 times
We still can't figure out what language the bus drivers are speaking in
We like to pretend that we understand every language spoken to us
We eat Chick-fil-a and Wendy's for every meal.
We know what alpha-unit means, and if our friends at home get hurt, we always ask them 3 times if they need assistance
We could go to Starbucks... while shopping at Target
We dated or made out with at least one person, whether we liked them or not.
I still have a ZILLION of those stupid mickey stickers
I've been to Mickey's Retreat on more than one occassion
We point with 2 fingers, not one and magical moments and take 5's make me smile
I
am an 05 CP, and im damn proud of it. I hope to God you have a magical
day (If someone wishes you a magical day it means f*** you in disney
language).

So the LOVELY Chatham Square internet went down tonight. we'd get it for a second. . .and then it'd be gone again. it was quite sad.
but then there was the good news. . .
I moved apartments today. I now live in 16203, and the girls are quite cool. i think the next 23 days will be quite calm!
Also, as soon as I managed to move. . .the roomie(samantha) that was giving me the most problems. . .self-terminated. . .oh well, at least i'm not alone now!
so yea, the internet works now. . .and it's funny, my disney section is bare . . . except for KoKo and I. . .b/c I guess we're the only crazy ones up this late to realize that it suddenly works. . .
I was about to get desperate. . .I had pulled out the phone cord and was planning on dialing up!

December 07 2005
*edit* I'm not coming home. I have a HOT new neighbor from Italy!
I assume I mentioned in a previous post that I've become sick again.
well last night at work, i had a runny nose, was poppng cough drops like no ones business, then went and cleaned the pretzel wagon and came back inside, and started talking and my voice was just gone.
it wasn't funny at all, but we were immensly amused by it, b/c it seemed 5 minutes before I was talking normally. . .
I'm going to audition for a character role tomorrow. if I get it, I believe I will be staying here another semester.
but i still plan on going to louisiana, going to gulf coast getaway. . .and then working. . .I can't just stop my life completely for my job
So i'll be updating again in a few days letting yall know what else is going on. have a great day!

December 04 2005
okay, maybe that's not totally true. . .but for real. It's gonna get up to 80 degrees here tomorrow. and I'll be working hot dog. that's the only sad part!
The rest of the week is spent working pretzels. . .I enjoy eating pretzels.
next week is 4 days pretzel, one day Enchanted Groves, that's not TOTALLY bad either.
My roomies are mean. I can't wait till they're gone for good. or rather, I'm gone for good
I can't wait till I get to go to Louisiana! I'm quite excited.
I need to clean. . but my roomies aren't around. . .so I really have no desire to.
I need to cut back on wireless minutes in the daytime. . .I'm not doing bad, but I could do better.
My nose is stuffy. . .Did i metion that I'm sick again. I've reached the "no breathing through the nose stage". just the right side though. . .I can't breathe through it. . .but I can feel it, and it feels like it's running.
that was quite a random story
Raven is on. . .it's good. . .
I have to be at work @ 11am tomorrow. . .not sure why i'm still up!
what a post!

Would you like sprinkles on that?
and that's been my week so far.
I ER'd after 1.8 hours on sunday, then managed to spend $28.75 on $114 of disney merch @ property control. YES!!(pics on facebook, b/c i don't want my sis to see, b/c her gift was part of what I got)
I posted some new pics in my photo's of when our neighbor got terminated and we acquired her food, we also acquired food the same day b/c Sammi's Parents were here. so check those pics out, our apartment was a disaster.
Tomorrow night is the Christmas Parade Preview. . .so pics of that will definetly be posted(I'm SO glad I work @ MK!)
work is boring. . .everyone has to work a 6 day week next week(and CP's don't get holiday pay!) but i got jipped b/c my scheduler gave me silly 6 hour shifts. . .those are just a plain waste of a day. . .I could go play in the parks but A. it's not fun alone, and B. every other CM is working 6 days. . .yea. . .refer to A.
that was quite the rant of a post. . .

survey. . .
November 12 2005
I ust filled out a survey for the new student center they'll be building at MTSU. . .I don't think they'll like my answers since i'm *kinda* living off campus this semester. . .
but(for anna) I said I'd definetly eat at panera bread if it were on campus!
I feel so young. . .
November 11 2005
Not something to complain about. . .everyone wishes for youth.
but like. . .I seem to attract older people, this is not a general "i attract older guys" type thing, more of, I have friends in general that are older than me. . .
this always causes me to feel like the baby of the group when age is brought up. . .
which is almost strange. . .because with my family. I'm the oldest. . .could this be the cause of me attracting older peers?
basically the guy I like right now or, "is in my life" right now, is 23. . .and thought 19 and 23 is not a massive age gap. . .I have a feeling he thought I was older.
this post had no point. except to tell you that I like a 23 year old, and I think he likes me back. and I only have 2 months left. . .causes for issues
oh, nathan, I enjoy the new toolbar. a lot.

November 10 2005
In 12 hours I'll be standing in cool ship and fulfilling my day with an eight and a half hour shift selling soda and chips.
I started trying to go to sleep an hour ago. . .
i've achieved an hour of thinking. that's all. thinking. I mean, thinking isn't bad. . .but it really doesn't get you anywhere. . . .when thinking about a certain person
I like a guy. a lot. Mark. . .I think I mentioned him? we met on the bus. . then after about a month he came by the apartment. . .
it kinda sucks that my program ends in 2 months
though, i'm excited to be coming home. . .

I arrived at work 30 minutes late on tuesday because the bus drove off as I was got to it. I was there MAYBE 30 minutes and the registers went down. and it wasn't just the registers that we had on my side of the market. . .it was also the registers on the merchandise side of the market. . .so that's 3. . .and then the registers inside the huge merchandise store across from the market are also down. . .add 8 to 3 and you have 11 registers down. . .

around the world and back with the soda fountain
November 07 2005
I never knew so many things could go wrong with a soda fountain. . .until today
I tried to be helpful and open another location after I *thought* I was ready to open this morning and still had time. . .well so i didn't check the bags in the boxes of soda syrup. . .or check the CO2. . .
then I opened. . .I quickly realized 5 bags in the box needed to be replaced and the CO2 was out when guests started returning and complaining. . .
I handed out quite a few free drinks today. . .
My new phone comes tomorrow. . .granted, I'll be at work, and my fabulous roomies will be going to the beach. . .
I need to go to sleep. . .but i also need to stay awake for at least 45 more minutes. . .
the last 3 days have been crazy
I'm hungry...

So a few weeks back I met a guy
wait. . .Adam and I are over. we're just friends. . .this story isn't about him
this guy came over and knocked on my apartment door on Tuesday night.
We went and saw a movie on Wednesday.
He came over thursday and we began to watch a movie. . .but didn't finish it
he came over again tonight(being friday, not saturday) and we finished it. . .
He's a nice guy. I hope those at home would approve of this one. . .My roomies do. so that's an accomplishment in itself. . .
I told him to call me. . .we'll see what happens :)

well. Cingular made a big boo boo. In my favor
I ordered my new phone on Oct 31. well It said online that it was backordered. I wasn't happy. So i called on like the 1st and asked about it. and the lady I talked to called someone else and gave them my order number. Well these KIND people found me a phone, and mailed it. i was happy. my phone should've arrived today. . .
turns out they mailed it to the good ole house in murfreesboro. ugh.
must wait on my mother. . .
wel i was looking @ my order. . .and it seemed I'd be getting 2 phones
I recieved a Delivery confirmation for the other phone today
Cingular mailed 2 phones to my murfreesboro house. . .
and I only can believe this to be true because one was sent via FedEX and the other UPS
but I still don't have one here in Orlando. . .that's being worked on. . .
ALSO!!! everyone join my group "my heart lies in murfreesboro"

So House of Heroes is gonna be here in the good ole orlando on
Wednesday. . .and I was quite excited. . .and was not looking forward
to forking out $18 to see just them and stryper. . .
well then they did the myspace deal where the first 5 people from each
city to e-mail the tour manager i guess would get in free.
I was taking a little trip with my neighbor when that was posted. . .so
i didn't think I could've won. . .but i e-mailed them anyway
and now i'm awake @ 4:17am because i can't sleep and pretty sure i'll
be seeing HoH on wednesday. . . and I can feel free to go backstage and
hang out with the band. . .
CRAZY!

I was taking a little trip with my neighbor when that was posted. . .so
i didn't think I could've won. . .but i e-mailed them anyway
and now i'm awake @ 4:17am because i can't sleep and pretty sure i'll
be seeing HoH on wednesday. . . and I can feel free to go backstage and
hang out with the band. . .
CRAZY!
