it's been a while so i have lots to update yall on, but i'll keep it to short summaries.
1) i have officially survived my first hurricane! hurricane isaac was technically a tropical storm and we didn't even really get hit by it but we did get some heavy rain and the temperature dropped about 20 degrees. i lived. i am pretty proud of myself.
2) i have learned how to sew! okay not really. i know how to work the embroidery machine in fantasy faire, which means i can now officially embroider names on mouse ears! pretty exciting right? it is my favorite thing to do now. i love it!
3) i have discovered orlando malls, and they are amazing. seriously, it is impossible to get bored in orlando. i have gone to the florida mall twice, one by the convention centre where i saw dark knight in iMAX... and a couple of outlet malls and i haven't even scratched the surface. anything you can dream of, orlando has it!
4)taylor turned 20. one of my roommates birthday was this week! i made a chocolate cookie dough cheesecake that i personally thought was really yummy even though it was super ugly. we went to t rex at downtown disney and had a little dance party with a bunch of 5 year olds! haha t rex is really great, it's just like rainforest cafe but with dinosaurs. we all dressed cute and it was lots of fun.
5) new fantasyland is slowly being revealed! they moved part of the wall and you can see a lot more now! and beasts castle is lit up at night :) it's beautiful! i have had multiple guests literally choke up. hahah. also we have now closed seven dwarves mine! which is a real bummer, because now we are stuck at pooh's when it rains! also on september 30 we will lose the casey's cart (hallelujah) when storybook circus opens.
6)character sightings- last night i saw the famous tinkerbell that flies across magic kingdom during wishes! she looks nothing like tinkerbell, she is hired for her size and athleticism, nothing else. she wears a helmet that doubles as a wig and lots of equipment. if you saw her up close you would never guess she was tinkerbell! i have seen a lot of ariel and eric around lately. i also saw rapunzel for the first time today! also there is a lot of belles running around for the new experience in fantasyland so the other day i saw five at a time. hahah it was the weirdest thing.
also, i am doing a character audition october 5! wish me luck! i am not sure if i will even get work off, and even if i do the audition might only be for positions for next spring/summer, which i am not planning on doing... so just keep checking in! i'll keep ya updated!
7)i have been able to go to church every week so far! it is great! i feel like i am right back in provo, which is actually really entertaining. i am in the lake buena vista YSA ward. also along the lines of religion, this weekend is the 'night of joy' parties at magic kingdom. its a contemporary christian rock festival that lasts two nights. lots of crazy i love jesus bible people. i was working with my friend nick, who is very obviously gay. i am very obviously mormon because my nametag says BYU. sooo we were getting a lot of nasty looks. so we decided to make the best of it! we linked arms and posted up at the exit to pooh's, which was really busy, and were overly happy and perky and disney-ish. it was funny.
hmm, i know i am forgetting something. oh well! hope everyone is doing well :) special shout out to my DAD who rides Lotoja tomorrow!
ta ta for now, much love!
