One day work weeks are my favorite!

My long week has started and ended today! This is seriously the only day I work this week! How am I gonna pay rent? No clue! But I leave in less than a week so who cares! Not a horrible day, only two checkouts and four linen changes. The people that pissed me off were these people in two rooms, they put a DND on their door,took it off so I checked and cleaned half the rooms and then they came back and I said oh okay I can come back then they put the DND sign up again and took it off again! Make up your damn mind!

Anyway! I finished work and went to the ESPN Wide World of Sports to do the penny machine. I left there and headed to the Boardwalk and talked to some guy at concierge who after ten minutes if talking to him, wanted to help me move into a front desk position, he said finish school and come back, so who knows.

Then I went to Downtown Disney. I had dinner at Earl of Sandwich and got a few more Pennines and then it started to pour so I left. I got two birthday cards with gifts ( you guys both did to much and you know I love you guys for going above and beyond). I pretty much called it a night after that.

Graduation

Another day off from work. I got up and took my car in so they could make sure everything was good before the trip home. After that I headed back and waited until a little before 1 to go to my graduation.

I got in line to check in, then I got my Certificate of Completion and a memory box. I got my Mickey ears with the tassel. I saw Goofy and Pluto in their graduation finest. Then right after I saw them, they switched and Donald and Daisy came out, so I saw them and then I got in line to see Mickey and Minnie in their graduation gowns. I grabbed some free food and walked back to my apartment.

I watched Devious Maids and The Fosters. For a while I just lounged around and then headed to Heather's we did our usual Tuesday night, watched Pretty Little Liars and Twisted and then I called it a night.

All Resorts are done

I slept in way later then normal, I didn't get out of bed until about 10:30. By the time I finished on the computer and got ready, it was about 3. I left and headed to the Yacht and Beach Club Resorts. I got to eat an ice cream from the infamous. N I walked over to the Swan and Dolphin Resort.

After that I headed to Art of Animation for dinner, then I got the pressed pennies at Winter Summerland Golf. I drove to the ESPN sports complex for the Pennines but I guess it was closed. Since it was creepily dark, I got out quick. After that I went to Downtown Disney and then called it a night.

Worst Birthday Ever

I'll admit today started like a pretty good day. I got up at a decent time, got ready and headed to Universal for the day. I got breakfast at Cinnabon which was amazing! Wish we had those back home. I headed over to Universal Studios first to accomplish my main mission of riding the new Transformers Ride. Which I did! One of the most amazing rides I've been on, it's alot like the Spiderman one but it seemed longer and a lot more visual affects.

Then I did the usual, rode The Simpsons, Men in Black. I met two guys dressed as men in black and the actual dog from the movies! You know the Pug who talks, Frank I think his name is? Anyway he was even wearing a little suit! Next I did E.T.'s Adventure which made a little more sense now that I've seen the movie. I caught the Universal Monster Make-Up Show.

Usually they pull someone up on stage to demonstrate how to cut someone's arm off and they picked some Chinese lady and OMG the things they said and the way she reacted was hilarious. The best part had to be when the knife was "in her arm" and they asked if it hurt and she was like a little and the host was like it shouldn't it says Made in China. Just hilarious!

Then I rode Revenge of the Mummy. I even did the gigantic roller coaster Hollywood Rip Ride Rock It. I took a walk through the I Love Lucy Tribute (the one in Jamestown is better). Finally, I saw the Terminator Show. I headed to Islands of Adventure and this is where the day started going down hill.

I was gonna ride the Hulk coaster but it was closed due to lightning. The Spiderman ride was over an hour wait, thanks but no thanks. After that pretty much ever I would ride was closed because it started to pour. So I waited it out and it stopped within 20 minutes. So I just decided okay I'll walk around, take pictures and go get dinner. I walked through Toon Lagoon, Jurassic Park, Harry Potter World, got a butterbeer.

The wait was over an hour for Harry Potter also, so I skipped that. Walked through The Lost Continent and just as I got to Seuss Landing it started to pour again. I waited in a store for a half hour and it hadn't let up at all. I thought about buying an umbrella but not for 17.95 and I didn't want to blow money on a poncho either. So I dodged in and out of stores for a bit until I was near the end of Seuss Landing cause there weren't anymore. So I walked through the down pour and got absolutely soaked.

I was gonna get dinner at CityWalk but I was freezing cold, like literally shivering and wet so I went to my car tried to dry my socks with the heat on and got a towel to dry off. My socks were still soaked so I just put my sneakers back on and headed back and ate at Bubba Gumps. Dinner was good but it took forever to get to the table. Didn't have dessert because after waiting for dinner and listening to three other people get sung Happy Birthday, I just wanted to leave.

I went across to the movie theater and saw The Conjuring, I figured seeing some people die might lighten the mood.I guess my other fellow movie goers had a different idea. The people who pushed passed me and stepped on my feet to sit on my left talked the whole time, like they were yelling at the screen the whole time.

The guy on my right kept checking his cellphone and his cologne was so strong I was getting a headache and the girl behind me apparently is part kangaroo as she kept bouncing off the chair next to me, shaking the whole row. How I made it through the movie without screaming at them all is beyond me. The movie wasn't as scary as I thought it was gonna be but it was okay. After the movie I came back to the apartment and just went to bed so that I could try to forget the worst birthday of my life.

One last wild time at Animal Kingdom

As my program is coming to end I kinda figured out how to do everything at least once more, so today I went to Animal Kingdom for the day. I decided to wear a Happy Birthday button since I probably won't be in a park on my actual birthday. First thing I did was get a FastPass for Everest.

Next I headed to Africa because the Safari was only a 10 minute wait! So I got on that and saw gazelle, hippos, rhinos, elephants, cheetahs, ostriches, and flamingoes. The driver of the safari asked me if I was out alone on my birthday and I was like yep. She was like wow, good for you. Like she admired my independence. At the end of the safari she said over the speaker for everyone to wish me a Happy birthday which was kinda cool. I get a text from my mom and she's like do you remember running a toll. So naturally I called her and apparently I did not pay a 75 cent toll so now they've charged me almost 4.00 dollars because of processing fees, what the hell? I hate driving in Florida!

Anyway, I went to FlameTree Barbecue for lunch, and headed to Dinoland. I finally rode the Triceratops Spin! I rode the Primeval Whirl and then it was time for Everest. I used my FastPass and then went on again in the single rider line. I saw It's Tough to Be A Bug and got a Fastpass for Dinosaur which apparently was down so in the meantime I saw Festival of the Lion King. Since my phone was about to die I went to my car and charged it as I planned my next move.

I went back in, rode Dinosaur and then rode Everest again, I mean c'mon 5 minute wait? I had to. Then I left for real. I headed to Animal Kingdom Lodge and took my pictures there and since I hadn't seen him in awhile, I visited Steve. We talked as he worked for a good two hours, Shows you how long it's been. I'm glad I got to see him. I called it a night after that and now I'm gonna go to bed because I'm feeling awfully sick, to the point of which I may have to call in tomorrow... For my birthday!

Epcot Character Hunting!

This morning I headed to Epcot early to do an entire day of character hunting, since that was the only park I hadn't done it in yet. I saw Chip and Dale first. Then I got a FastPass for Soarin since I hadn't ridden it in I don't know how long! After that I waited in a long line to see Goofy up at the front of the park.

The only thing left in Future World was the Epcot Character Spot which I figured I'd hit it later. So, I headed to the World Show case. I saw Mary Poppins in the United Kingdom, Snow White in Germany, Aladdin and Jasmine in Morocco, Alice in the United Kingdom and Princess Aurora in France.

As I was on my way to China, I saw a whole bunch of characters out by the American Adventure. Let's see I met Gideon from Pinocchio and Captain Hook with Mr. Smee! They also had Tigger, Pooh, Donald, and Goofy. I made it per to China and saw Mulan. Despite my not liking him, I met Duffy the Disney Bear. Next was Tigger and Piglet in the United Kingdom. Finally I ended up back in France to see Belle.

Then, another surprise. I got to meet Terence (he's from the Tinkerbell movies) and Lady Treamaine, Anastasia and Drizella ( Cinderella's Stepmother and Stepsisters). I headed over to Mexico to meet Donald and then it was time for Soarin!!! After Soarin, I did the Epcot Character Spot. I met Mickey, Pluto and Minnie!

Next I tried on a whim to see if I could get in to eat at Chefs de France (I've been dying to eat there since I got here) and I walked right in!! The food was pretty good, and I know I've said this before but I love how they make sure people from whatever country actually work in that country! The best part had to be when a gentleman brings around a big silver platter. When he lifts it up Remy the rat chef from Ratatouille is there! He kinda talks to you and it is so awesome! It almost made the meal worth the price!

I decided to head out since the possibility of rain was coming. I went to Wilderness Lodge and walked around there and took pictures. Then I went to the Grand Floridian and then back to the Wilderness Lodge. I headed back to the apartment after that. We passed our final apartment inspection (no thanks to the billion boxes of beer on top of our cupboards) and I just relaxed and watched an episode of The Fosters. All in all a pretty successful day!

Thank goodness it's my Friday!

Finally! Day 10 is complete!!! I'm finally off for two days! My board today didn't look horrible, only 4 checkouts and 8 linen changes but psh, they checkout tomorrow so no linen change for you! I couldn't get into my checkouts until 11. The worst part... They were Brazilian boys! I've never seen rooms so trashed, there was gum on the walls and floor and the drapes were broken, trash everywhere!

The one thing that made my day a little was the fact that a George Foreman grill was left in the room and since they are incapable of finding the garbage can or using the shower curtain, I guess I'm not capable of finding the lost and found. My last checkout was the worst. The drapes were ruined and the clumps of gum were stuck in the carpet. I tried to get the manager to look at but being that we had the laziest one of all she never did.

I gave up on here and told her at the end of the day. Of course to make things interesting , the power went in our whole building but she still let us leave so thank goodness!

After work I decided to walk around another resort, today was Saratoga Springs. I was talking to Heather and we were both kinda bored so I brought food over and we watched What A Girl Wants and Scary Movie 5. She was tired so we called it a night and now I can enjoy one of my last weekend here.
