I dyed my hair

ya see, my hair was bright red for a show back in April.
then it faded to a strawberry blondish color.
then my roots were really starting to show.

needless to say I needed to fix my hair before check-in because those roots were far from the Disney look
lol
So I went with a dark brown. My hair has a natural red hue so of course every color I use pulls out some red so it is more of a dark brown with a red undertone. I'm sure it will be perfectly fine for they Disney look.

here it is...

Well, packing has been going great. I do have a lot of stuff but the bright side is that my paychecks wont go to essentials. I'm set. Well I will need food but that doesn't count haha.

I'm so ready to start!! It is getting so close I can taste it!

Keep Dreaming

22 days

until I visit the World. 28 days until I move in. wow. Remember me complaining because the days were going by so slow? Well I take it all back! I feel like I was in the 60s yesterday!

In order to get my mind off of leaving so soon I have decided to really kick my butt in gear to get into shape. I want to put my best most confident foot forward when I meet all these new people.

Things I Still Need To Do:
-pack
-pedi with mom
-color my hair
-get a hair cut
-buy a laundry bag and under bed Rubbermaid container
-get bed padding
-organize
-checking account
-set up the underwater feature on my camera
-get in shape (lol)
-tan

that's about it...I don't think I crossed anything off of my original list
oh well, I still have 3 weeks..
right?

I'm so anxious
I want to know where I will be working
I want to start getting into the swing of things
I want to start another chapter in my life

I do not want to leave my family
I do not want to fail
I do not want to disappoint anyone

I will make magic for as many guest as possible
I will work as hard as I possibly can
I will make life long friends and network as much as I can
I will live, learn, and earn in the proper Disney fashion
And I will love every single day of it, because I refuse to waste a single day of this outstanding opportunity I have worked hard for.

I am excited

bring it on.

well

well, some real solid packing has began. It is kind of freaking me out. I want to bring everything! I know I can't though argh. I need to be practical, and knowing me I will be buying clothes while I'm there so way over packing is just dumb. About 1-2 weeks before we leave I will be unpacking clothes, editing, and repacking them. I have had a few editing sessions but it is kinda hard to fully pack until I have packed for my vacation. Well that and the fact that I still have like 29 days until I leave. I am rambling, but whatever, no one reads this anyway. It's more of a time consuming vent for myself. haha.

wow, 29 days until we load up the truck and head out and 34 days until I meet my awesome roommate in person, 35 days until I move into my new apartment with hopefully some really amazing people, have an experience of a lifetime, and live/learn/earn in Walt Disney World. It should be pretty cool ")
mannnn, I really am going to miss a select few. The people who are a huge part in my life are going to be greatly missed but I have to remind myself that I will see them again, I'm not leaving forever...well I wont be in Florida forever at least.

Now that I realized that I only have 29 more days I still need to :
1. pack duh.
2. heavily clean up my room/bathroom lol
3. get a new checking account
4. pick up a mattress pad, under bed containers, and white board-cork board combo
5. wait patiently for the fact that I'm leaving to actually hit me
6. get all depressed because I'm actually leaving
7. finish my on board paperwork...I have been too lazy to sit down and finish it.
8. ...
I think there are only 7 things I need to do...maybe? I don't know. I will think about that one lol

anyway that's all for now

wait! I remember #8! Get a hair cut/ dye my hair.

okay now that's all :)

oops

I forgot I even had a blog.

fail.

Any who, only 40 days until check in and about 34 days until I am visiting the parks with my family. I'm actually a little freaked out that it is almost July. That is suppose to be the month that will fly by and I feel like I have so much I need to do, but in all actuality I only have to pack, finish filling out my On Board paperwork, and set up my new checking account. Not too bad. Packing needs to be the last thing I do. I'm gonna over pack. I know I will. Whatever. Kimberly, my roommate knows this. In other news my lovely Momee (grandmother) took me shopping for my "Disney Look" professional wear and I must say I will be looking snazzy. I didn't shy away from colors and prints in my business clothes because well, that would just be boring. (no offence meant toward people who prefer the black pants white shirt look, it's classic so you will be putting your best foot forward as well =D)

Anyway. Who else is overly excited about the Winnie the Pooh movie coming to theatres July 15?!
This little lady is :)

If you aren't excited/don't THINK you care/on the fence, watch this..If it doesn't help you cross that invisible line of those who are awesome and those who are eh then I am at a loss.


Well that is all for today, I need to try and keep up with this silly little blog!

yet another

group has checked in..I'm slightly bitter. When is it my turn! OOH yea, August 8th. haha oh well, 55 days and 10 hours. I am almost 100% done with my Disney shopping. I need some business clothes. Now I just really want to pack but I will wait until second/third week of July. How much clothes is acceptable to bring? Even more important, how many pairs of shoes are acceptable! Hello I'm a woman, the decision making portion of my brain is still under developed.

On a different note, who else loved the Tony's last night?!
The Book of Mormon took home 9 awards!

Now, if you are one of those people who do not know what the Tony Awards are then you my dear have broken my heart. The End.

On a different note again! I will be here in 49 days!


kinda hoping we will be staying in the 50's again..We got lucky and had a awesome room in an awesome spot. close to a parking lot, a lake, 2 pools and the front of the resort. Seriously a hop skip and a jump away.
It is such a fun resort!

any who, that's all for now.

60 days 6 hours until my internship

60 days, exactly 2 months. I'm freaking out in the best possible way. I have been taking inventory of what I have already for packing and I must say I am doing extremely well. almost done :) well almost done getting stuff i haven't started packing, still too early. I will wait until next month to really focus on that. I wanted to make myself a t shirt quilt before I went down to Florida but I don't think I have the time really. quilts are very time consuming and I have never made one so I'm worried I will try to rush it and mess it up beyond repair so I guess I will wait. I found a old old old pair of light up mickey mouse ears I had as a child  :)

for fun I put the "vintage" wash on it from my phone =D sadly the ears are much to small to actually wear but I decided I want a pair of Minnie sequence ears with bow when I get there  which will fit and be just as fun. I will make this work.

So my dad travels a lot and he likes to bring me back stuffed animals so as anyone can imagine I have accumulated a nice collection. I decided I will be bringing 3 and a pillow pet. The pillow pet is a must because we are driving and it is a great pillow, duh. Well my pillow pet is a unicorn which just makes me laugh. Then I am taking a koala bear my dad brought me from Australia, Batcow from build a bear that my friend made me for my birthday a couple of years ago (thanks Carlo <3 ) and lastly my lovely Yeti ball that I got at animal kingdom. He is pretty bada**




well that's all for now :) follow me on tumblr click here for some awesome disney stuff :)

almost there!...not.

only 62 days until I have my lovely Disney vacation and only 68 days until my Disney College Program begins...that's a high number still...I guess it is much better than the countdown I started in February when I was accepted. Those were the days, when time flew by, then here comes summer slowing everything down! Don't get me wrong I am enjoying my summer with family and friends and sleeping in my own bed (things I will miss) but come on! I'm done whining...I got it all out, now I will keep moving forward and take each day at a time and appreciate how close I am as well as how much time I have home with the ones I love..


that's all for today
