The Magic, The Memories and Me :D

So another week, another blog! Cannot quite believe i have been here 22 days already and only have 7 1/2 weeks left on the Disney ICP programme. It is so amazing here but time just flys by as you are doing so much all of the time. This week has been yet another fun filled week.

This week involved quite a lot of work as i was still continuing on my 7 days of work straight. But hey it earns the pennies. So on Sunday i went to the pool in the morning before work and after work just to chill out and relax a little. After work, whilst sitting around the pool, we all decided hey... lets go to McDonald's at like 1am but time is irrelevant out here when you finish shifts at midnight every night. On Monday this led to going to the pool in the morning again and then heading off to work for one of my busiest shifts of the summer... July 4th, Independence Day. Gutted i had to work this day as i really wanted to see the fireworks and what annoyed me more is that people we're queuing to buy bread and milk instead of watching them... how ungrateful! Rant over. Wednesday brought the same routine of pool then work but i managed to speak to mum for the first time since i had gotten here which was nice! Thursday also followed my general day routine but decided to do laundry too but when you go to get it out of the dryer it decides to open the heavens and bring on one of the epic Floridian storms :( After trying to shelter from it me and Emma gave up and just decided to get wet and go home and get ready for work until midnight.



Friday brought joy to many Chatham Square ICPers! Social security morning which meant getting up at 5am (so yes i had 3 hours sleep) all for a 2 minute wait whilst they typed some info into a computer so we were back by nine and all decided to go for breakfast at Golden Coral.



The buffet had everything bacon sausage for the traditional fry up to even deserts which is a bit strange but we took full advantage of all the offerings there. This was also the day of the space shuttle launch which we didn't bother watching as the weather was a bit dodgy so we didn't know if there was any point in waiting around or not. So we all decided to take a trip to Epcot and this was my first proper day in Epcot! We went on all of the rides and my two favorites being Test Track and Soaring, with Soaring taking a lead as it is just mind blowing. After experiencing the rides and having some lunch we took to the World showcase where me and Beth took the opportunity to have a picture in every country bar Canada as we stopped off in the Rose and Crown in the UK to watch IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth which is an incredible water/fireworks show done from the lake in the centre of the World Showcases. I enjoyed watching this with a couple of beers and properly chilling out. Afterwards in a crazy high moment me and Beth decided we would also try and see wishes at Magic Kingdom but this failed as it happened whilst we were on the monorail so we just went on space mountain ride instead which seemed so much faster and scarier than usual!




So along comes Saturday which i also have off :D I spent the morning and afternoon with Louise at Animal Kingdom where we watched both the Lion King Show and Finding Nemo and took advantage of the rides and safaris. Dinosaur, me and Louise found absolutely terifying and just don't know what was wrong with us. After exhausting ourselves there we moved on to Disney's Hollywood Studios where we went on Tower of Terror Rocking Rollorcoaster and One Man's dream show which was about the history of Walt Disney and really interesting. After this we got ourselves a turkey leg and went off to watch Fantasmic which is AMAZING!



So Sunday came and Heather took us on one AMAZING route march around Epcot for Character spotting for photos and autographs. We saw Chip n Dale, Alice in Wonderland, Aladdin and Jasmine, Prince Charming and Cinderella, Tinkerbell and a few others and it was such a good day. We also went on soaring again and then headed off to Magic Kingdom again for Space Mountain a little bit of Dance Party the Electrical Parade and to end off the night at the park, Wishes which still amazes me even though i have seen it about 6 times now. After magic Kingdom me, Maeghan and some others went to Joe's apartment to play a game of ring of fire where i got a little tipsy after having to down the king cup... never a good thing! And this brings us to today.




I will update you all soon :D Miss you all xx
