I'M ALIVE!

HELLO EVERYONE!... aka hi Grandma and Susie! I am so so so sorry for not writing recently (more sorry than I said I was last time I apologized about not updating...). Work has been super crazy because of spring break, but now that that time is winding down, I'm back to a more normal schedule.

The weeks before and after Easter were absolutely insane at work. The park was hitting capacity at certain points throughout each day. When this happens, guests are stopped before they even get to the park entrance - sometimes as far away as the parking toll booths! They also warn guests not to leave because they risk not being able to get back in. I was luckily never working during these times, but I did work through a lot of high-traffic times. People are crazy and it seems like they all forget their brains at home when they come to Disney World! Some of the most difficult guests to work with are the foreigners. The language barriers that exist make it sooo hard to help them.
During the spring break rush, I was working super late. I would close almost every night, which usually meant I was working until at least 2am. There were four nights that I had to work until 4:15am! Those are tough because I don't get home until about 5. My coworkers make it bearable, though. I have made a lot of close friends that make going to work fun. One of my closest friends down here so far is Sarah. She's from Ohio and goes to school in Utah. Her and I have a blast together! We are always laughing and everyone else around us thinks we are crazy... we're just having fun! I've also gotten pretty close with one of my coordinators, Maren (she even donated $5 to my MS walk!). Sarah and I joke around with her by telling her how much we love the turnstiles. Every time she looks at us while we're working, we hug the turnstiles... she thinks it's hysterical.

Nicole, me, Sarah and Ashley are all smiles at the end of our 4:15am shift!

There are still a lot of guests coming in every day, but it has definitely slowed down a bit. Also, my shifts are much shorter so they go by quicker which is nice. There are a lot of guests coming over from the UK right now. I was talking to a guest one day and they were explaining to me how popular Easter is over in the UK and how widely celebrated it is compared to in the US. They get several weeks off for the holiday as opposed to the few days we get here. What is most amazing about these guests is that their tickets are usually 14 day tickets which means they have two weeks worth of entrances to Disney parks! I think that is insane considering my Dad, Nicole and I did all four parks in two days!

During spring break, we did not have any classes because scheduling does not allow us to have any times blocked out. For instance, each week the scheduling department makes sure that I am not working from 8:30-3:30 on Wednesday's because I will be in class. Since they need so many cast members working during spring break, the department does not guarantee that those times will be blocked out, so they just cancel classes. Classes resumed this past Wednesday. For my leadership class, we went to the Magic Kingdom and explored all of the different themes and stories that are told throughout the park. Most of it was stuff that I had already been taught, but there were a few new things that I learned. For example, it is known that guests are more likely to go to their right when moving forward which is why wheelchair, stroller and locker rentals are on the right side of the entrance. In my marketing class, we had guest speakers talking about the Disney Vacation Club. One of the presenters was from Long Island so afterwards I started talking to her and it turns out that her mom is a teacher that I used to know back in fourth grade! What a small world!

Outside of class and work and all of that boring stuff, I have been enjoying time with friends! On the Saturday before Easter, Sarah and I went to meet Mr. and Mrs. Easter Bunny! We had lots of fun and got free peeps :). Easter Sunday was one of the days that we had to work until 4:15am, so in order to make it more bearable, I made Easter baskets for my coworkers and had an egg hunt around our break room. They were very appreciative and it made working so late more fun!

Sarah, Taylor and I! We all trained together on turnstiles and are great friends still :)

My MS walk was last week and it was a huge success. I went with my roommates Stacey, Kacey and Nicky. We had a blast, got some exercise, and raised awareness for a great cause. I was able to raise over $3,000 which is absolutely amazing considering my first goal was only $500! The park that it was held at was about a half an hour away but it was gorgeous. There was a neighborhood around it that had some of the nicest houses I have ever seen. It made me actually want to live in Florida! (JUST KIDDING). Overall, it was a great day!

This past week has been a fun one. On Tuesday, I went and saw Jurassic Park in 3D with one of my work friends, Jessica. I thought it was going to be really scary but it turned out to be pretty good. On Wednesday, I had my two classes and then I went to Universal with my roommates Stacey, Kacey, Tara and Ashley. The lines were pretty short so we were able to get a lot done! They all bought annual passes so now we can go whenever!

First I saw the movie, then I was in it! Jurassic Park @ Universal Studios

Earlier that day, during my class at Magic Kingdom, Stacey and I had met a kid named Jordan from New Jersey. He was really nice and friendly and the three of us bonded immediately over what we missed from the northeast. He invited us out to dinner with his friends that night so when we got back from Universal, we headed over to O'hana. O'hana is located at Disney's Polynesian Resort and is known as the best restaurant on Disney property.. Boy, does it live up to that title! It's a family style restaurant and there is a set menu so you don't order anything. You start with a loaf of coconut pineapple bread. Next they bring out a huge plate with lo mein noodles, pork dumpling, honey barbeque chicken wings and stir-fry vegetables. Then, they come around with huge skewers. The skewers have chicken, pork, steak or shrimp on them. They keep coming back with the skewers so you can eat as much as you want. The food was absolutely amazing! Then, once you fill up on all of that, they bring out one of the best desserts I've ever had. It is a bread pudding with banana foster sauce with a huuuuge scoop of ice cream on top. We devoured it! Jordan asked for another scoop of ice cream, and instead of just ice cream they brought another whole dessert out! The second serving was even bigger than the first! It was definitely one of the best restaurants I have ever been to, and it was a ton of fun. There were four of us and even though Stacey and I had just met the other two, we laughed as if we had known them for years!

On Thursday I went to the dine-in movie theater with my friend Bryan and saw the new movie "42" about Jackie Robinson. The dine-in is pretty cool but also kind of weird. It's like a full service restaurant with a movie in front of you. I think I'd rather eat popcorn during the movie, not chicken fingers! Regardless, it was fun and the movie was really good!

The past two days have mostly been about work. I was able to get some new costume clothing which is nice because now I have multiple outfits and so I don't have to do laundry every other day. Today was my day off and I did a ton of cleaning. I did six loads of laundry! But now everything is clean - I even washed my pillows! I work again tomorrow and Tuesday, but then have Wednesday off for class. After class, I am meeting up with my co-op advisor from school because she is down in Orlando for a few days and wants to check-in. After that, I am heading over to another restaurant with Stacey, Jordan and Jazz! We are going to the 50's diner which is supposed to have a "grandma's kitchen" kind of feel. Apparently they yell at you if your elbows are on the table and show you a photo album with pictures of your "Great Aunt Betsy." I bet their lasagna won't be as good as Grandma's, though!

That's it for now, folks! I'll try and update soon. Love and miss you all!

Hi everyone!

Just a quick little update today. My past two days at work have gone really well! They were relatively stress free. Aside from some very big bursts of guests before/after the night parade and fireworks, it's been fun! Our biggest issue has been with the cheerleaders. The new touchpoint turnstiles don't work for paper tickets, so normally we have to send them down to the older Legacy turnstiles. However, despite the fact that they spent 7 1/2 years and 1.7 billion dollars designing this new touchpoint system, they somehow forgot to create an exit plan. It's kind of hard to understand but we have to make all of the old silver turnstiles into exits and reroute all the guests in that direction. That means that paper tickets have to come through the touchpoint side and therefore the Guest Relations cast members have to manually scan every ticket that comes through. Here's where the cheerleaders come in. There is a huge competition here this week so we have thousands of cheerleaders and their families roaming through the parks. When big events happen like that, every person is given a paper ticket! Therefore, at night when they open the park just for the cheerleaders, my job becomes relatively useless because I can't help anyone with the paper tickets. It's confusing and hard to understand if you're not here/working, but hopefully I kind of explained it alright. That was probably the worst part of the past two days, but even that wasn't bad - just hectic for a few minutes! I am also starting to get to know one of my coordinators a little bit better. I am happy about that because they are very intimidating and always look angry so it's nice when they act friendly towards me. Last night I drove four of my coworkers home because we all got off at 1:15am and live in the same apartment complex. On the way home we decided we wanted to get some shakes from Steak 'n Shake. That along with daylight savings caused me to not get to sleep until about 4am! Tonight, I have to work until 4:15am so I probably won't get to sleep until about 5am! Have I said how excited I am for my dad and Nicole to get here?!

Earning my ears... again!

Hello! So I guess I haven't been doing my best with keeping up... but I'm trying!

On Sunday, I began Parade Audience Control (PAC) training. It was three days of setting up and breaking down for parades. I enjoy it because I get to be out in the park and can interact with the guests a bit more than I can at turnstiles, but it is a lot of pressure and pretty intense. The floats are extremely heavy and if someone was hit by one, it would cause a lot of damage. I was in a training group with three others plus our trainer. It was easy to do everything with the five of us, but once I get a shift of my own I will have to do it all by myself! That makes me very nervous. We learned how to put ropes up, when to clear streets, where people have to be standing, what walkways to keep clear, how to initiate crosswalks during a parade, etc. We were the first trainee group that my trainer had ever had so there were somethings that she made kind of confusing and hard to understand, but overall I was able to grasp most of the concepts. Over the next two weeks, however, I have all park greeter shifts so I'm nervous that if I ever get a PAC shift on my schedule, I will have forgotten how to do everything. One of the best parts of training was when we got to go to the Production Center backstage and see where all of the floats are stored. We saw where the float drivers sit - it's amazing how tiny their little area is inside. Another funny part of training was when I was talking to some guests and a little boy told me that he had ridden the Pirates of the Caribbean ride that day. I started rambling on about the ride and talking about it and didn't realize until I walked away that I had been talking about some other ride! I'm sure the little boy didn't realize but his grandfather definitely did! My mistake! I'll have to spend more time at the parks to really get to know everything about the attractions haha.

 My PAC training group! We had so much fun together.

Yesterday, I had two of my classes. During the Marketing seminar, we discussed all of the different themes that Disney has had over the past few years. We learned about how they brought all of the parks together to market them as one and how they were able to take a global approach towards it all. It was really cool to see how they implemented ideas like A Year of a Million Dreams and What Will You Celebrate? My Leadership class was pretty interesting as well but I don't like that one as much as I enjoy the marketing.

After class, Stacey and I headed over to Epcot. We rode Spaceship Earth which was kind of like a mini history lesson - I enjoyed it! We also were able to create our own rollercoaster and ride it in a simulator! That was one of the coolest things I have ever done at Epcot. They have the Flower and Garden Festival going on until May there. It was a little too cold last night to walk around and see all of the topiaries, but we are going to try to do it one day! Then we headed over to Hollywood Studios. The wait on Tower of Terror was only a few minutes so we rode it twice! We saw Fantasmic afterwards. It's a half an hour show involving a ton of characters and scenes from different movies that they project on water. It's kind of hard to explain but it was really cool.

The Buzz Lightyear Topiary at Epcot Flower and Garden Festival!

Today we might head over to Magic Kingdom or just relax for the day. It's pretty chilly here so being outside isn't that much fun (but at least it's not snowing!). My schedule for the next few days is kind of crazy. Since Spring Break is starting up for everyone, our hours are much later than usual. On Sunday, I have to work until 4am! Once I get through Thursday, though, I get to enjoy a mini-vacation with Nicole and my dad! I am SO excited!

As I'm sure most of you all know, I signed up for the WalkMS event in Orlando on April 7th. Thank you so much to those who have already donated - it means the world to me! I am almost halfway to my goal of raising $500. If you know of anyone who might be able to help out, please tell them about the cause and see if they'd be willing to donate just $5! Below is my link. Feel free to read my participant page and make yourself more aware about what exactly Multiple Sclerosis is.

I'm Alive!

Helllllooo! It has been almost two weeks since I've updated and I am very sorry about that! I am really going to try to update every day or every other day, even if it's just something little. It just gets difficult because it doesn't always seem like there is something to write about! The past week or so has been pretty good. Work has kept me very busy but I've also found time to do some fun stuff with my friends.

Work has been alright. There haven't been many stand-out good or bad days. Usually, if a day seems to be going well, something happens to ruin it haha. It's not so bad, though. I like the people I work with and the guests who are really nice and excited to get inside make it worthwhile. I was working exits one night so I was waving goodbye to everyone with my Mickey hand on and I was amazed by how many people asked to take pictures with me! It's weird that I'll be in their family vacation pictures now haha. I am starting to get a bit more comfortable around my coordinators which is a good thing because generally they make me very nervous but I'm starting to get over that. One of the worst parts of my week was when I had to go to a meeting in the middle of my shift. I wasn't sure what the meeting was for or where it was so I started asking around. I was sent to seven different places before I finally got to the meeting... 35 minutes late! It was just a basic introduction for all of the CPs (College Program members). I explained my situation to the guy leading the meeting and he said it was no problem and I hadn't missed much. That was a relief because I was really worked up after having gone to seven other places. It bothered me that no one could help me out. At one point I started to think that it was some sort of initiation where they sent all of the newbies running around the park looking for a meeting that didn't exist. On Sunday, I will begin training for Parade Audience Control (PAC). A lot of people say that they like PAC better than Park Greeter so hopefully I will enjoy it too. The costume is a lot less comfortable though, so I'm not looking forward to that!

On Wednesday, I started my classes. They are called Exploring Marketing and Exploring Leadership. Technically, they aren't really classes because we don't have assignments or homework or anything like that. They are more like business seminars. The marketing one sounds like it will be really interesting. They will bring in speakers from all different facets of the Disney company to tell us how they market and sell their products, whether it be a stuffed animal or a cruise trip! The leadership one also sounds pretty interesting, but I'm not sure I'll enjoy it as much. I think they will be great opportunities to network with professionals and get my foot in the door if I decide that Disney is where I want to make a career.

Work and class take up a lot of time, but once they are done it's all about the fun! I have done quite a few things with my friends over the past week. One night, we went to Epcot to ride Soarin', got some dinner, and watched Illuminations. Illuminations is the firework show at Epcot while Wishes is the one at Magic Kingdom. I really like Illuminations because the fireworks are cooler and more varied. I also went to the P!nk concert with Nicky on Wednesday. Our seats weren't great, but it was a lot of fun! I wasn't expecting much but it turns out that P!nk is an amazing performer. She did a ton of acrobats and was flying over the crowd and stuff. She also sounded great live! Yesterday, Stacey and I headed out to Universal to buy our annual pass. I was told if I just showed my ID and proof that I lived here I would be fine. Once I got to the ticket booth, however, they gave me a hard time and said they couldn't help us. I was pretty angry because I had just paid $15 to park and now I couldn't even buy a ticket! I went over to Guest Services to see what they could do and the guy we talked to was super helpful. He was joking around with us and poking fun at the fact that we were Disney CPs, but then he whipped out his Disney ID! Turns out that he used to work over there but then switched to Universal. He was telling us some funny stories and was able to get us our passes. They were expensive, but worth it! I love Universal so I definitely think I will get a lot of use out of the pass.

Overall, I have been enjoying my time here. I am, however, very homesick. The thing about working here that makes it so difficult is that everyone is working in fear. We are all so afraid to mess even the tiniest thing up because no one wants a point on their record card or to get in trouble with a coordinator or manager. There is so much pressure to be perfect and do everything correctly. It's to the point where if you're standing one step to far to the left, someone will come over and tell you to move. Being at work is very stressful that it almost makes it painful to be there. I'm glad that at the end of the day, I can come home to a bunch of friends and we can all just unwind and have fun together. I cannot wait for my birthday in a few weeks because I get to take a little vacation with my dad and cousin. It will be nice to relax and not have to worry about the pressures of work for a few days! Until then, it's off to work I go...

(I'll try and add pictures to this post soon!)

Working for The Mouse

One more shift until I finally have a day off! These past couple of days at work have been quite strenuous but it will all be worth it when I get my paycheck - hopefully! They will start taking out rent from our checks this week which kind of stinks but at least it's not like school where I have to take out a huge loan for housing. Tonight, I have to work from 4:00-12:15 and then I won't have to work again until Thursday night.

On Saturday and Sunday I had to work until 2:15am, so I didn't get home until about 3. It's rough but at least I don't have to wake up early! Saturday's shift went pretty fast, but I can't say the same for my shift on Sunday. I had to work for over 9 hours and unfortunately I didn't get to deal with the nicest guests. Some people are very mean and impatient and they will get mad at me when there is something wrong with their ticket or the machine. I guess they don't realize that technology has issues sometimes... They start cursing and yelling at me but there's not much I can do until they calm down and listen to what I have to say to help them. It definitely gets me upset but I just try and think about how it's their loss because they are clearly are too miserable to enjoy a nice vacation. A little attitude adjustment could change it all! Sunday's shift was made even worse when I got in trouble for not coming back from my 30 minute break. The thing is, I never had a break! I was at a turnstile all night and when my coordinator had me shut it down, I went inside and everyone was saying that one of the other coordinators was looking for me everywhere. When I went and found her she was upset with me and said I was late. I tried explaining to her that I was at my turnstile the entire time but she didn't care to listen. I was able to talk to someone else and explain the situation, and so apparently the person who was supposed to give me my break never did so I was standing at the turnstile while I should've been on break/doing something else. It was very confusing and I was very upset but I think it's all worked out now. I was so relieved when my shift on Sunday was over - it was the worst night I've had since I've been here!

Yesterday was a little bit better. I started my day off by going to the mall with Nicky so that she could get her computer fixed. We walked around for a little and I must say, I am so glad I left my wallet in the car! The mall was so big, I definitely could've blown a lot of money in there. We went into a store called Teavana and the tea was delicious! I think I might head back there once I have some extra spending money. On the way home, I heard a contest on the radio for some concert tickets. I figured I'd try and call because I always do when I hear that stuff. I had Nicky dial the number since I was driving and after a few re-dials, it started to ring! She handed me the phone and they answered and I was the 93rd caller!!! I won two tickets to a P!nk concert in Tampa next Wednesday. I am very excited to go! After that I hung out for a little bit and then headed off to work. This past weekend was absolutely freezing, but luckily last night was a little bit warmer.

On Thursday we have room inspections so I will probably spend a lot of time tomorrow cleaning up the apartment. I have some roommates that do not do their fair share of cleaning so I think we are all going to have to sit down and talk about it... I'm not looking forward to that! I will also have to drive down to Tampa tomorrow to pick up my concert tickets. It's too bad it's not right here in Orlando!

I am very tired and worn out, but I am enjoying myself. Unfortunately, I barely get to see my roommates because we all work such different hours. I work late most nights while everyone else usually works pretty early. I hate that we don't get to hang out as much as we did when we first got here. I am making a lot of friends at work though. I have a friend from New Zealand and she is awesome! She has the best accent.

I cannot wait for my dad and my cousin, Nicole, to come down for my birthday in March. I requested a couple of days off so it will be nice to enjoy a mini-vacation with them. For now though, it's work work work!

Busy Busy Busy!

Sorry for the lack of updates! It has been hard to find time to sit down and write on here, and it is also difficult to figure out what to write about. Now that I am working on my own, my days are pretty similar. I am still enjoying my job, but I am finding it a bit more tiring than before! I'll try and update you on the past few days and I will also try and stay motivated to write on here more often!

Today is one of the saddest days I've had down here. Unfortunately Annie, one of the girls that I live with, is leaving today. The program just wasn't for her and she feels that it's time for her to go home.  I am super upset about it because she was definitely one of the closest friends that I had made here and I had been looking forward to spending the next four months hanging out with her! I know that it sounds weird to be so upset over someone I've only known for a little over two weeks, but in that time we were able to build such a strong friendship that I feel like I've known her for years! Even though she is leaving, we will still try to stay close and keep in touch. Hopefully she will be able to come down to Orlando to visit before our program is over, and maybe after that she can come visit Stacey and me in New York!

On top of Annie leaving, my dad also left yesterday! I was able to spend my two days off this week with him which was nice. We did a little bit of shopping and checked out a lot of the different resorts around Disney property. We also did our fair share of getting lost on property... We came to the conclusion that Disney could've used some help from Robert Moses because these roads are way too confusing! I am very excited for him to come back and visit in March for my birthday, but I am having trouble choosing what restaurant to have my birthday celebration at! Any suggestions?!

Aside from everyone leaving, this week has gone pretty well. I worked Sunday and Monday, then had two days off with my dad, and now I will work every day until Wednesday. The shifts go pretty quickly because people are constantly coming and going and there is a lot of interaction with the guests.  On my first day without a trainer, I received a Fanatic card which is a form of employee recognition. When another employee sees you doing something worth noting, they fill out the card and the manager signs it and you are recognized! It looks really good on my employee record card and it also enters me into a monthly raffle. I'm not sure what I win if mine is chosen, but it's still cool! I received the card because I was working exits and a family came through with a little boy in a stroller. As the stroller exited through the gate, the little boy dropped his popcorn and immediately started to cry. I quickly went and had the popcorn refilled and then proceeded to clean up what had fallen on the ground. I was noted for going above and beyond and treating the guests with courtesy! I was so happy to help the family and being recognized for it was icing on the cake.

As I said, most of my days are pretty similar now. I am beginning to get to know the other people that I work with and so far they have all been extremely friendly. I'm excited to continue working with them and to get to know them even better.

Happy belated Valentine's Day! Hope everyone at home is doing well. :)

Trainee no more!

I hope everyone back home and at school are enjoying the snow! It's nice and sunny here :) The past few days have been crazy busy but I am really enjoying what I'm doing. I have finally "earned my ears" and can officially work on my own now! It's scary but fun. There are a lot of people who are willing to help me if I need it (there are also some people who are not willing - maybe they shouldn't be working at Disney?).

Thursday and Friday were my last two days of training. As I said in my last post, I absolutely loved my trainer Matthew as well as the other three people I was training with. I'm so upset that we won't get to be together every day like we were in training. Hopefully, I'll be able to see them while working though! Our training was a combination of reading, working on the turnstiles, taking the monorail, etc. We were all over the entrance to Magic Kingdom. It felt like we spent a lot of time just hanging out and having fun, but at the end of the day I realized that I had learned so much! On Thursday, the first day we actually worked on the turnstiles, we learned first hand about media relations when Honey Boo Boo came through our turnstiles! (Honey Boo Boo is a little girl who used to be on Toddlers and Tiaras and then got her own spin-off show... not sure why exactly, but she's famous!). We are not to acknowledge celebrities, so we just treated them like any other family. It was pretty cool though! Magic Kingdom is in the process of changing over all of their Legacy turnstiles (the silver ones with the rotating bars) to new touchpoint ones. They are much simpler to use but unfortunately, not all tickets are configured to work on them yet. It makes it a little difficult because some guests don't realize that they don't have the right tickets for the touchpoints, but luckily we have Guest Relations cast members behind us so we can direct them there for assistance. It's much different than the Legacy turnstiles but I think it's cool to say that I was part of the transition from old to new. The new ones are very high-tech.

Once I finished training on Friday, it was time for an assessment. The assessment was on Saturday and lasted about four hours. I had to show that I could work the turnstiles and I also had to answer some transportation questions and take a written test. The cast member who assessed us, Reggie, was very nice and helpful. He asked some questions that we didn't know the answer to, but it wound up being a good thing because we were able to learn something new! After four hours, I learned that I had passed my assessment! Then, I had to go work on my own for two hours. It wasn't too bad, I think I did alright. It is nerve-wracking being thrown out there by yourself after spending so many days grouped with others. For the next two weeks I will be working a lot of closing shifts, which hopefully will be a nice change from the early mornings I've had thus far! I just can not wait to have my car with me - these buses are driving me nuts!

Nicky, Stacey, Kacey, Me, Annie!

Despite how exhausting work has been, my roommates and I have been trying our hardest to do other things as well! On Thursday, a few of us went out to Buffalo Wild Wings with some other people we had met. Everyone was very nice and I was glad that we went because we were able to meet some new people. Friday night, we weren't as adventurous. Instead, we did some grocery shopping and then came back and watched a movie! It was a nice way to relax and spend some time with each other. Our schedules have all been crazy so we don't always get to see one another. We had cake for Nicky's birthday that Annie had made and surprisingly it was delicious! We were a
little nervous because Annie is known for being a  bad cook... Last night, five of the roommates plus another friend, Lewis, ventured to Magic Kingdom for fireworks and the parade! I felt crazy going there as a guest after being there all day as a cast member. It is very hard not to act like a cast member when you're not working - I am so tempted to start greeting all of the guests! The firework show is called Wishes and it was amazing, as usual. I still can't understand how Disney does it. Everything is just so perfect.

Lewis, Nicky and I enjoying cake and a movie!

Wishes!

A lot of people have warned us about 'losing the magic'. I really hope that that does not happen to me. I am having so much fun here so far, and while I understand that there will be days that I want to just go lay in bed all day, I hope that I can continue to love what I'm doing throughout my four months here. Soon, I will be getting trained in other jobs like PAC and Time Square Theater. I'm not sure what I'll be doing, but those are just some more Main Street operations! I hope everyone back home is staying warm - you all need some Disney magic to help clear that snow!

After Wishes!
