After the very sad goodbyes on Sunday night, The flight on Monday was great! Think I may... Dare I say it, be cured! Can I have a wahoo?! ... OK maybe not but still, I was so proud of myself! :-D. Started off with being over weight on my case and US Airways wanting to charge $150! Horrendous! But with the help of the lovely girl I was flying with, we managed to sort it, yay! Getting to know the two girls was fab, we chatted most of the way, and with 2 flights and waiting in between, that's a lot of talking!
Aaaand we made it here in one piece! I found out I was living in Patterson court, which is lovely, and I'm living with 2 American girls and my roomie Gemma, its nice and cosy, and starting to feel a little homely now :-D. My Walmart trip was just as horrendous as everyone makes out, being up for 22 hours and then trying to shop with everyone else who feels the same way, not a good combo! But I got the necessities and swiftly left.. Until the bus broke down! But the drama was solved and I made it back to eventually have some definitely well needed sleep, after waking my roomie in the process, whoops!
On Tuesday we went on an hour walk (yes in the Floridian heat) to try and find a phone shop, one guy drew a map which led to nowhere! Plain rude if you ask me. Buuuut, after dipping in and out of shops for air con we eventually got that sorted and made it back to a cheery housing talk, nice :-). We made a trip to downtown Disney that night too which was so fun! And I got to have my first Earl of Sandwich, yum! I learned a lot about pin trading (didn't know there were so many rules!) And enjoyed our wander, but by the end I was SO tired, still a little jet lagged I think.
Leading us to today, I found out officially where I'm working, Magic Kingdom! SO excited to start actually working, I want to know what ride! All i know so far is that im in Adventureland, and from what ive heard it sounds fab! We had forms to fill out and a scary and a little boring immigration talk before we had a rest and went on our first proper shopping trip to publix.
We rented a trolley (to be corrected and told it was a cart!) and wheeled it to publix, and didn't we get some funny looks! Pretty much stocked for little while now, and got to have my first full meal, hurrah!
Soooo leading us to now, I've got traditions tomorrow which is my first officially paid day, whoop! And its supposed to be really fun, so I can't wait. Missing every one at home lots but having a blast.
And on that note,
See ya real soon!
