Roomie Dinner!

Wednesday, August 7, 2013

Things have been pretty slow in Orlando these past couple of days! I had yesterday completely off to shop for groceries and get our apartment organized, and had one meeting today! In our apartment complex there is a little gym (nothing like Lifetime) and a pool, so I kept busy there! It has been HOT here! HUMID! Not so great for those of us with thin hair. I have a roommate from North Carolina, so she cooked everyone a classic Southern meal! It was delicious! She made us collard greens, mashed potatoes and gravy, chicken fried steak, and biscuits. We definitely don't get this everyday in CO.

...time to hit the gym!

Tomorrow, I have to attend Disney Traditions, where we get introduced to Disney culture and learn about the heritage of the organization. We also get our park passes!! So tomorrow night at this time I will be in Magic Kingdom watching fireworks! All the fun pictures are about to come soon! A couple of other fun things: as Disney cast members we get discounts at a lot of places outside Disney! I bought crocs at the outlets here for my lifeguard uniform and I got a discount! Pretty cool! Also, we went to Planet Hollywood in Downtown Disney the other night for dinner and got to skip in front of everyone on the waiting list. We walked right in and got seated! This definitely helps, since every place in Downtown Disney is usually over an hour wait. I wish I got these kind of deals for working at The Egg in Parker. So we are taking FULL advantage of all our discounts, deals, and days off!

This is a terrible picture of me, but it's the only one I have with 3 of my other roomies. So Nic, don't make fun! Shelby, from North Carolina, is on the right. Ashley, from Utah (we also share a room), is in the middle. And Cathy, from Philadelphia, is on the left.


Off to a great start, but change can definitely be heavy! More excitement begins tomorrow!

  1. I just got home from my retreat and am having so much fun getting caught up on your "Disney Adventure." It sounds lie it's all you hoped it would be. Love you. Auntie.

  2. Uncle Paul and I tried to post a comment from his Ipad yesterday and it doesn't seem to have gone through. Anyway, we want you to know you look gorgeous in the picture and your roomies look very sweet. Uncle Paul also wants to know if any of the roomies are selling churros and when do you get your Cinderella costume.
