DON'T FORGET THE THUNDEROUS APPLAUSE FOR, YOURS TRULY.

I'm officially assessed at The Great Movie Ride! I passed my assessment yesterday and went into my first rotation today! It went really well actually! :)

I put my handprint on the wall, here:




Working 50 hours this week, so I'm exhausted. Waiting for my friend Kris to pick up my roommate and I to go to Walmart.

BIYA.

Ready when you are, C.B!

Started training today.....

A lot of info, but so much fun! :)

OH HEYYY

Hey guys!!!!

So yesterday I went to MK rope drop with Molly and Jazmine! Then we got on basically all of the good rides, for some reason it wasn't that busy! We did get stuck on Splash for 20 minutes.... hahaha. We had lunch at Pecos Bill's, then met up with Cori after work to go to property control and cast connection, where she proceeded to buy a ten pound bag of pasta for $6. And I got a Minnie Mouse blanket for the same price!!

The day before I went with my roommate Katharine to Hollywood Studios! We went on almost everything there too, including GMR twice....because...

THAT'S MY ATTRACTION!! STARTING TOMORROW I WILL BE TRAINING AS A TOUR GUIDE ON THE GREAT MOVIE RIDE!!!!!

Yayyyy! I start training tomorrow, and my hours this week aren't too bad. Except that I have to be in at 6:45am tomorrow....

But then NEXT week, I have like three 12 hour days. Not so awesome.

I had On With The Show on Thursday, which was cool. Kris and Elyse had it with me, so I knew two people at least haha. Kris is working merchandise on sunset and Elyse is attractions at Toy Story Midway Mania! We did a bunch of e-learning, which was boring.

I really do love DHS and I'm so glad I'm working at that park. MK is great, but just everything about DHS is amazing and I love it!!! Plus, there's a Subway in the cafeteria, awesome.

I'm doing laundry today, then probably going to visit my friend Molly over in Patterson, haven't seen what a Patterson apartment looks like yet!

One suggestion for all of you guys coming down, LEARN MILITARY TIME! I suck at it, and had to change my phone to it so I could start getting better. You'll need it!

I'm working on a video compilation thing from the past week, so look out for that!

Annnddd yeah! Bye guys!

p.s: new vloggg

Short blog about the past few days.

Hey guys! So this is going to be short, but my roommate, Cori, will be doing a more extensive overview of the past few days(check-in, move-in, casting, etc) on her blog HERE! So watch out for that, it's gonna be a LOT better than mine....and have photos...

I will be posting a video soon, just a mash up of these few days. Nothing really 'vlog' like until after traditions probably. Then I'll do an apartment tour and such. I have Friday, Saturday and Sunday OFF, so i'll have time hahaha. In between going to the parks of course!

Anywho, Cori and I moved in with our two roommates, Katharine and Sara, yesterday! Two bedroom apartment in Chatham Square! We're happy with it! We unpacked everything yesterday, and went over to Walmart, then to Publix today for food. Probably going back to Walmart sometime today for some more things.
Everything went really smoothly yesterday, got to check-in at like 7:15. Apparently people got there at like 6am this season..... ridiculous. But we got through fast, got our apartment and keys ad such and got right on the bus to casting from there. Casting didn't take as long as we thought it would! I found out I will be in Disney's Hollywood Studios, Icon Attractions! I have my park orientation on Thursday, but I don't start training until next week for whatever attraction I'm on. (I actually know already thanks to a friend of mine who works in HS, but I won't tell you guys yet ;))

So we've just been chilling around here and getting stuff for our place.

OH! And I signed up for the Disney Heritage Exploration Series class! It starts in October and goes till December, one day a week for two hours. So it doesn't seem too bad, and it definitely looks interesting!

Trying to think if there is anything else to tell you guys..... don't think so!

So look for a vlog soon! :)

Guess who's in Orlando?

MEEEEE!!

I got here yesterday and ever since then it's been nuts! AND I HAVEN'T EVEN CHECKED IN YET! Met a few really awesome people from my d-fam, some other awesome people. AND MY ROOMMATE COMES TOMORROW!!! :D

I've been at universal allll day, which was exhausting, and going back tomorrow. Then fun at DTD with a bunch of people, then CHECK IN ON MONDAYYYY!!! :D

Yayyy!! Can't wait.

SEE YOU GUYS SOON!

Looks like we made it

So guys, here we are. I leave for Orlando, Florida tomorrow. NYC will be without it's #1 NBC Experience Store Sales Associate, Hunter College Student and Insane Intern for 5 months. It's all bittersweet, but I know I'm going to have the time of my life.

As my friend Jason puts it, I'm going to "Grow up in Disney World."

I had dinner with a few of my best friends last night, teared up once, and had an amazing time.

But now it's time for a new journey, and it's going to be a blast.

:)

Classes at Disney?

So, I've made a decision about these classes we can take as CPers.

My number one choice is the Entertainment Production class in the Professional Development Series. It seems like a pretty awesome learning experience, especially in my field.

My second is the Disney Heritage Exploration Series class. Obviously I love Disney history, so this class looks really cool. -nerdage-

With 5 days till check-in and two till I leave, these kinds of decisions need to be made... hahaha

LAST VLOG BEFORE CHECK-IN!
