Hi there!
So, I'm not familiar with how things work when you work for the Mouse. I was reading your stuff and you eat in the park a lot...do they give you a food allowance or do you eat at a discounted rate or is your paycheck just AWESOME? LOL I feel like eating there that much would cost as much as a student loan!
I've loved reading about your experience!
Bahahahahahahahaha yeah...not really any of those. We pack a lot of snacks, and budget our groceries during the week accordingly. If I know I'll be out in the parks for 2 meals both days I'll spend that much less on food at Publix. I also eat a lot of kids meals, they're cheaper & more my portion size. For sit down meals, especially if we're at a buffet, we'll eat as much as we can to save money lol. We get discounts on specific places, some sitdown places, but most are only before or after certain times of the day. There's definitely no food allowance and our paycheques SUCK (coming from Canada where minimum wage is higher). We budget everything out and do bring a lot of food with us. It works out to being no different than going out 1 time on your weekend, and maybe buying lunch at "the office" once a week like I would at home.
I think we probably crossed paths on 12/5 and 12/6 more than the two times we actually saw each other. I also had lunch at BOG on 12/5 and then on the 6th I'm pretty sure I was at HS and MK at the same time you were. Funny that we didn't bump into each other more time!
Lol. I don't even remember which days those were lol. I'm surprise we didn't bump into each other more if that's the case though!!
That's so great that you got to hang with Danielle and posse. That's something I think would be one of the coolest parts of working/living there. There's always someone on vacation to meet.
Awww YAY "4 Keys Card". Made even better if you thought you were in trouble, lol.
AWWW MAN!!!! Like seriously... WHY COULDN'T SANDY CLAWS BE OUT LAST YEAR?????? I called for it, but noooooooooo, bring him out the year I'm not there. Not fair. Great picture though.
Oh God I remember the Tornado warnings. That's no joke.
Day off and MK on my birthday... I approve.
Awwwwwww that older couple on Space. I am ridiculously in love with that.
HA, lots and lots of wine.
Right?! I feel like I constantly have "friends in town" because there almost always is someone I know here lol!
Lol, yeah, he's pretty great. I'm just super glad they've started adding some different characters into the mix for parties this year. I'm just still waiting on Meg! Lol
Wow, you've really kept yourself busy. Loving your IG posts lately! I wish my study spots were as cool as yours lol And that's so sad Baemax and Hiro might be going away soon. I was really hoping to meet them Yay for the Kitchen Sink and the Four Keys card!
Hope everything is still magical and swell in Florida! Can't wait to read more!
Lol...it's actually insane. I actually feel like I have no time for anything some days. I miss living a mere 10 minute walk from my work place, the grocery store, walmart, AND my gym...*sigh*
Thank you!! Well, the studying is temporarily done for now, so hopefully those study spots paid off!
Just got all caught up. YAY for amazing Disney days! I actually just got an AP for my Bday so I'm sure I'll be seeing ya around.
I think it's amazing that you saw Bolt! My DS is NOT a big Disney guy, but he loves Bolt & Wall*e and you never see them or any merchandise.
I love the idea of loosing both shoes for more options prince-wise, brilliant. Cinderella's a thinker. I just love her.
I didn't know Sandy Claws was at MVMCP now I think I'll have to catch one. Jack was LOVELY at MNSSHP a total gentleman.
I'm glad you're managing so well despite the bumps in the road. Keep us posted on your continued adventures.
Yay for AP!! And i'm sure we'll see each other around at some point!
It's insane! And it's been weird with some of the characters they've had out for people's training days (it's not the characters they're training, but the people in that height range) so it's odd to see like, Bolt, and Launchpad out and about a lot recently!
I will gladly lose all of my shoes if I could get at least one great prince! Lol.
Yeah! He was great!! I'm always impressed with him at the parties, I hope he starts to come out more often!
