Another weekend, another free concert! Yay!
Lifehouse was alright, but I only recognised 4 songs. The rest kind of bored me... But hey, it's free entertainment, so all good!
I had this really yummy shrimp sandwich thing with cajun freis. Delish. :P
Work has been ok. Had some weird guest moments.
Like the kid with this joke:
Why did the 5 ckickens cross the road?
not sure... why?
Because they wanted to get killed!
..... *blank slightly disturbed face*
Why would they want to get killed??
....because all chickens want to get eaten!
:/ ??? Not sure how that is funny....
Ok and one more.
What does the inside of a clean nose look like?
..it has fingerprints!
wow. boys...
--
I went dancing last night. It was a weird experience. I miss going dancing to just dance. ...and getting to dance lots. Here people just kind of stand around staring at each other. ..and generally the girl asks the guy to dance. :/
--
I got my microwave egg poacher in the mail!! WooOOoo! Will def be making some fun creations. Or at least attempting to. Good thing I have alot of eggs....
My Mum arrives here soon! :)
It's going to be great having a 5 day holiday and a roadtriiiiip! Fun stuff.
Okay, talk later!
21 in 3 and a bit days! :]

Mustangs are beautiful :)
Hey ya'll!
It's midnight here but I know that I have to post becuase otherwise I will forget to!
Work has been okay. Nothing much exciting. My days off were pretty fun though. :)
On my first day off I slept in for a bit. Which was awesome. Then I decided to go check out cast connection/property control for a bit since I hadn't been there in ages. Only got a few things but it was nice to get that urge out of my system. :P
After that I rushed to my apartment and got ready at light speed to catch another bus. It was time for Typhoon! I went with 2 friends and it was good fun. :) The weather was nice. ....but okay. Here'smy dilemma. HOW in the WORLD did I manage to get sunburnt when we were only there for 4.5 hours and I re-applied waterproof sunscreen twice?! Gah. Stupid pale skin!
Then it was time for a movie night. :D Yay!
---> Oh. That reminds me. I forgot to tell ya'll that the other week I made brownies. It was quite an adventure. ...and although the middle part tasted awesome somehow I managed to make the outsides as hard as rock.... :/ Ever done that?
The next day off was my roomie's birthday. We went to Beastly in the morning (even though I was a zombe from a late night prior. The movie is pretty predictable, but it was still cute and I liked it. Prolly giveit a 7/10, since it wasn't that original...
It was also Cinderella's Royal Table night! We had booked this 6months ago and were excited about it for ages. We planned to dress up etc and have a great time.
We managed to get another friend in too depite protests about how we couldn't do that. I find that the people on the phone always say it's not possible. ...and then when you go in person every time I have asked, they have been okay with adding people!
Anyway - we dressed up all pretty! ...and one of our Bippity Bobbity Boutique roomies did our hair. So awesome!
The only thing was that Cindy's Table was not the best of experiences. I mean the breakfast I had there once before told me that too, but I was told the dinners were far superior and so put my prior experience to the side...
We had several problems, but the main problem was that we were sper disappointed because after all the anticipation and preparation it didn't live up to our expetations at all! One of the biggest things I had problem with was the cast. I do not think they stayed in character and played the part at all! It was so un-magical. :(
Then, we had problems with our bill. We thought it was all good since we had pre-paid, but then we had issues. So maddening. I am wanting to write a complaint letter...
On another note though - I went to work the next day with my princess hairstyle. Of course I had to take the tiara out, but everything else was perfectly in tact. Yes, the gel was THAT strong. My hair felt like it had a cement type glue on in and the bun was super hard!
I was afraid I would get in trouble for having my hair that way but I didn't have time to try and take it out (a mission, I tell you now!), so I risked it. Turned out the managers didn't mind and actually kinda liked it. :) Of course they asked if I got it done at the Boutique. ....and I said "uhh no, I have friends"... :)
In more recent news though, my shift today dragged on for ages. I was so tired! Not to mention I was closing and I really am not a fan of that.
However, there was one awesome posisitve.
When I was clocking out I started talking to another Flower and Garden cast member. It turned out he had a car. ..and he offered me a ride. Not only was that awesome, but when got to his car I was like.... woah.
It was such a nice car. ..and the inside was even more beautiful.
Now, I'm not usually a car person, but this car was super nice. Not to mention it had a whole bunch of extras that made it super amazing! For example, the inside changed colour!
I must say that although country music was playing (yay!) and he drove really safely, I still felt a streak of rebellion or excitement. Maybe it was the whole sports car thing? Maybe I felt like I was riding in a total chick magnet car like the movies and that got my body buzzing?
It was pretty thinlling experience, anyway. Made me want one....
Some fun countdown things:
1. Mum's gonna be here soooooon :)
2. I managed to get a booking at Le Cellier (tip for all ya'll dudes/dudettes: make friends with lots of people here! Espesh ones with power!). Looking forward to it!!
3. My 21st soon!
Here's a nice guest magical moment to finish with...
So, I was working in Germany the other day. This guest walks by with her husband. She admires some butterfly garden stakes we have.
She proceeds to admire them for quite some time and make comments like "oh, aren't they pretty?" to her husband (who seemed to uninterestedly agree)
They walked off and the guest begrudgingly left without buying anything.
....and then the daughter (who i didn't even notice until then, age around 10years) came back, picks up the Mum's fav garden stake and says "I'll buy it fo you mummy!"
The Mum was so impressed and touched by her daughters actions. You could see it in her eye.
I thought it was beautiful. :)
Ok.
Off to bed!
Faith, trust and pixie dust!

Yes, there are pics.
Roomie has them.
Not sure when they will be uploaded....

Heeeeey romeo....let's go down to Mexico.....
Hey ya'll :)
Last night I went to a Sean Kingston concert at Universal. I'd have to say so far I liked Blake Shelton best. His CD is great too. :)
Sean Kingston drove me somewhat insne with his "put ya hands up!" after every 5th lyric. Dude, find something different or more -original- to say.
Work has been okay. I like the people I work with. Well, except for one or two. Like this older lady today who spazzes when I tried to help her. :S So weird.
Yesterday was interesting because power was out in Canada so we got be usher all day, directing guests to a building with working POS machines. Of course, guests were upset that they walk further, but regardless I enjoyed the change. :)
In fact work has been odd lately. The day prior the weather was horrible (well, everyone was freaking out, when personally I thought it was just like a typical NZ storm) and we stayed in the breakroom for 3 hours before before being released from work, like I mentioned in the previous post...
My next days off are the 4th and 5th. I was planning to go waterparking and do cincerelas table, and a few other fun things. But kind of lost some enthusiasm. I don't want to go to those sorts of things by myself. I mean I can, but it's so lonely! Hopefully I can find people to hang out with. :/
I feel all lonesome at the moment, actually. Wish I had dancing friends. I miss dancing so much. It's one thing I want to ge back into when i get back to NZ. I mean it won't be as good because I wont have a chris or a richard to go to classes with, but at least I can feel the music in my bones and let my soul soak it all in.
Anyway, I am going to go check out Bongos tonight for a bit just to see what it's like on Saturday nights. See if the dancing is any good. If not I will just come back and go to bed.
I feel a short rant coming on. Want to hear? Okay, then. Knew you would.
....I am in the kind of mood whereby I want to give up on boys all together. :( Seriously, they change their minds and moods too much.
Actually, that's probably just how girls are.
But I am just sick of it for the moment though. No boys. -.-' Nope. I am going back to my keep-to-myself...self.
May I just say that this may be a touchy topic, but I want to know what ya'll think. Religion difference in relationships.
Can it work??
My conclusion is: not without much difficulty.
So I think I am just going to avoid going into anything like that again. ....yeeeeah. Accept me for who I am and if that's not good with you then you're not good with me!
On a side note....
Mum is coming over soon! Looking forward to seeing her. :)
Chat later!

Rain rain go away!
...unless you make it so I get paid to do nothing!!!
haha.
Today I got an ER (early release) because it was thunderstorming and there were tornado warnings... In fact several hours later it is still that way! The whole day we all just hung out in the break room. It was pretty hard work. yup.
After 3 hours of sitting there doing nothing we were offered the choice of either:
1. an ER
or
2. stay for another 6 hours.
Now, as tempting as option 2 was, to get paid for doing nothing, I was afraid of being sent to Wonders to be forced to stand and work. I preferred being able to do what I wanted.
I mean it is less pay but at least I did the AK shift to help make up for the lost hours.
My roomie bought Tangled and so I have seen it about 6 times now.
If you haven't seen it, go and see it!!
....now she's here, shining in the starlight, now she's here and suddenly I know...
The only problem is I am not sure what to do with myself. Like I can just hang out and do some admin stuff or read I guess, but I feel a little unproductive!
Did I mention in another post that I booked my tickets home? Scary stuff. :/
I saw a hummingbird the other day. It was beautiful. :) Wish they were in NZ.
The Itallian event after the AK shift was really nice. Free food that was super yummy! ..and seconds, too! Was sad I had no-one to dance with though. ...Richarrrrrd where were you?? :'(
Got the Blake Shelton CD I ordered today. :D It's awesome. Country music love <3.
Ok.
Well off to do something else with myself.
Shop, read, sleep, gym....something like that.
I wish I had more energy.

Blake Shelton :)
Hey ya'll,
Yesterday I convinced my Flower and Garden workmate to come to universal for the Blake Shelton concert. :)
He eventually gave in, and we left at 6.
Learnt pretty quickly that we probably shouldn't have left it that late... Yeah. What should have been a 15min drive took TWO hours!!!!!! Ergh.
However, we rushed and parked and then grabbed panda express and somehow managed to get the concert just as it started!
I loved the concert. I got to be as much of a cowgirl as I wanted and fit right in! Blake Shelton is also an awesome singer and I enjoyed listening and singning along. Not to mention he is very funny and I was quite entertained.
Tomorrow I have to day off. Have some admin to do and then I hope to go to Typhoon Lagoon. :)
I couldn't deal with having another day off, so I picked up a shift at Animal Kingdom.
..and I am super tired. So talk later!

Stop and Stare..
Hello everyone,
I have been meaning to post for a while but I guess I got lazy.
Sorry about that. :P
Possibly one of the reasons may have to do with a guy... but that's of course no excuse! So I am posting now to make up for it! :)
I have been working a lot lately. 9 days straight, in fact! So today and tomorrow are such sweet blessings that I am enjoying.
What do I have planned for these sweet blessings? Well, I plan to relax, read, go to universal concerts to see One Republic and maybe also Blake Shelton (a country singer). So cool how they are free to passholders. I am so glad I bought that pass, it has been paid for a hundred times over!!!
I also plan to book a few things here and thre and sort out some back to reality things.
The other day after work I went and posted off my taxes (*mumble grumble*
can't believe I had to pay $9, plus a fee for a money order plus anATM fee because I had to pay it n cash which I didn't have! -.- Sooo not cool.)
I also went to the programmes office to make sure that my ER has been updated on my profile.
Yes, not sure if I mentioned that before but I managed to get an early release of my programme (and even that was a drama, I had to go trough so many people! Good thing I have an awesome manager at CBR who heled me out. :) ). My new end date is July 2 instead of July 8. This is so that I have a little more time to get back to NZ before university, since it starts on the 11th!
However, I am not returning straight away.
I never got to see my Utah family whilst here and so I am going there for a few days before I leave the country. :) Should be super fun!
Back to what's been happening lately though. At work I have been having some really awesome conversation with my fellow cast members. [and if I am going to be put in dead places like Japan and Gogo I don't see why I can't learn more about the people around me.]
I have learnt so much from them and I love hearing their opinons. There are some pretty wise people who work for Disney.
..and since I found this so valuable, I challange ya'll to get out there and do the same! Get to know the people around you! They may just emotionally touch you some way or change your outlook on something.
I have had a lot of 8.30am starts lately.
Not my idea of fun, that's for sure.
However, all the managers have been talking to the schedulers and maybe it has worked because next week I have noooo 8.30am starts at the Gogo cart. :D :D :D Yay!
I have had the chance to work in places other than Cananda and Mexico. Japan is kinda lonely (but is made barable with nice cast company) and a little dull. However, you get to hear both the Moroccan and Japanese musical entertainment which is kinda cool....the first 6 or so times.... ;)
I had a crazy incident at Japan the other week though, when these drunk guys started talking to me. They were been super creepy but the bad news for them was that one of the managers was there too. ...sucks for them...
I like Germany. They have awesome bonsai plants (which may seem ironic - and I too am perplexed as to why the bonsais are in Germany and not Japan....) and wood carvings. They are fun to look at.
There are no fans to cool you off in either of these locations though! Argh! Talk about hoooooot.
The VP of Epcot and I keep running into each other. It's awesome. We are both counting the amount of times and it's so funny. :) I think he is cool.
I love how my roomies take us to cool places like Target to go grocery shopping. :) Got to loooove them!!
Righteo everyone
I am going to look into applying for Halls at uni or something so I have a place to live when I get home!
Love, Peace, Mickey!

WICKED
Hey ya'll
I love making new friends here. :) Not only does it benefit you with connections but it also can be helpful (eg. some people have cars!)
Lately I have made found some fun workmates and it has made work so much better! Time passes quickly becuase I have people to keep me company. ...and by the way, I even make friends with the middle aged and older people as long as they are not grumpy (yes there are a few of those)
The other day I went out to breakfast at Denny's with a friend. It was so nice, especially to have a cooked breakfast!
We have friends over in this apartment, and everyone gets on (or at least if they don't there isn't a fuss) which is nice. :)
The other night one of my roomies put on the movie Splice. Man it was creepy. Never going to watch that ever again, I think I am scarred for life, ergh!
I got to experience what it is like working at Germany and Japan stalls for Flower and Garden. Japan is kind of slow and lonely, but Iquite enjoyed Germany. It is right next to the bonsais which fascincate me, and the wood carvings on the other side are also very interesting.
I still prefer Canada because the CDS is used there and there is a good break system (it's self break with Japan anf Germany) and the break rooms are nicer. But it was a good change <--and no Gogo cart! haha
I picked up a shift at Animal Kingdom yesterday. I probably shouldn't have becuase it meant I had a 9 day work week, but they are cutting my hours next week so I thought I may as well make the most of the easy overtime while I can. The next paycheck should be good. :)
The shift was okay. Not hard but pretty long. I got to play with african instruments or the first hour or so which was kind of different. How many people can say they get paid to do that? haha

....so I looked at my paycheck for last week and noticed some strange things. I had been weirdly overcharged for rent! When I contacted the correct people they were helpful and I am hoping that I get the refund I was told I would be getting, and that the problem is fixed! Really don't want to be ringing them up all the time.

The other night was WICKED! I rushed after work to get to Vista but still managed to fit in a shower and some food. :D I was excited to see this show since everyone I had heard talk abou it had nothing but positives to say.
ALL I can say is this show is definately work the hype. It's funny, clever, touching and impressive. We had amazing actors too and they had beautiful voices. 10/10 for sure. Go see it if you haven't before. :)

Onto today, man it was long. Of course I had to start at the cart, but it was a long shift and it was HOT. Luckily I had my Aussie workmate to hang out with as well as the artis who is lovely. After work my feet were (nd still are, they thump!) so sore! I couldn't walk normally and my feet felt swollen. :S
I wish they could have better fans to keep up cool becuase I think that is one of the problems.
Funny enough the guests weren't so happy today so it was affecting them too, and my roomies were all super tired when they got home too!
Right now I am just relaxing, and the fact I don't have a 8.30am start tomorrow is nice. However, Today is just day 4 of 9... Looking forward to my days off though! I like to make the most of days off and on the 25th it should be good because my roomie and I are seeing One Republic at Universal for freeee at he Mardi Gras. :P Yay :D
Things I need to sort out though:
- taxes [need to send in my forms, because apparantly I DO owe $9... -.- ]
- flights
Hope ya'll are ok

I love making new friends here. :) Not only does it benefit you with connections but it also can be helpful (eg. some people have cars!)
Lately I have made found some fun workmates and it has made work so much better! Time passes quickly becuase I have people to keep me company. ...and by the way, I even make friends with the middle aged and older people as long as they are not grumpy (yes there are a few of those)
The other day I went out to breakfast at Denny's with a friend. It was so nice, especially to have a cooked breakfast!
We have friends over in this apartment, and everyone gets on (or at least if they don't there isn't a fuss) which is nice. :)
The other night one of my roomies put on the movie Splice. Man it was creepy. Never going to watch that ever again, I think I am scarred for life, ergh!
I got to experience what it is like working at Germany and Japan stalls for Flower and Garden. Japan is kind of slow and lonely, but Iquite enjoyed Germany. It is right next to the bonsais which fascincate me, and the wood carvings on the other side are also very interesting.
I still prefer Canada because the CDS is used there and there is a good break system (it's self break with Japan anf Germany) and the break rooms are nicer. But it was a good change <--and no Gogo cart! haha
I picked up a shift at Animal Kingdom yesterday. I probably shouldn't have becuase it meant I had a 9 day work week, but they are cutting my hours next week so I thought I may as well make the most of the easy overtime while I can. The next paycheck should be good. :)
The shift was okay. Not hard but pretty long. I got to play with african instruments or the first hour or so which was kind of different. How many people can say they get paid to do that? haha
