Wow! A lot has happened over the past few days...

Hey,


So much has happened over the past few days I had to write an entry!
Last Thursday I went to Hollywood Studios and went on my first roller coaster since coming to Disney then watched Fantasmic! 
On Friday I went to Cast Connections which is a cast member's Disney shop, and on the way there my bus caught fire! Also on Friday 5 Acre's of bush caught fire at Disney World! 
Saturday I went out with some work friends to Beaches and Cream at Down Town Disney and we got a Kitchen Sink to share, the kitchen sink has 8 scoops of ice-cream, a whole can of whipped cream and all the toppings in the house! Was very good! :)
Other than that I have been at work on Saturday I took off my 'Earning my ears' badge so I have officially finished my training! 
Also the weather over here has gone crazy, we have sub tropical storms passing over us and yesterday at work they shut down the entire park twice because of the weather! So the rain has followed me from England to Florida!
Might possibly be going to Magic Kingdom later on today!

Sending lots of love especially to my family after some bad news last week.


Missing you all muchly!

Day off :D

Hey everyone!

So today is my first day off in 9 days!! Definitely needed it, especially as I was up yesterday at 5 to get my social security number then work!
Last night me, Saira and Magalie went to Spark in the Dark welcome event! Was really awesome got free pizza and drink and a picture with Donald Duck then danced the night away!
Today I've been sunbathing by the pool for a bit and finished the first book for the The Hunger Games which was so good! A bit gutted that I left the other 2 at home now.
Work is going really well, everyone is nice and I think I've settled in quite well considering I only started working there last week! Next week I'm working 51 hours, so in advance I apologise if I don't speak to people at home or write a blog I will be rather busy and tired!
On Monday evening I went to EPCOT to watch the fireworks they were so good! Though we didn't get a chance to see much else of the park.

Miss everyone back home!!

Love Jenny :) xxxx

End of training!

Hey guys!

So today was my official last day of training! I passed my assessment yesterday with 92%, I think I'm supposed to take of my 'Earning my ears' badge though I'm going to try and keep mine on until I'm confident with everything I have to do!

In my job role I have to do more than what I expected, so I could be behind a til, floor assistant, rentals (towels, lockers, and the space we can reserve for customers), I could be doing a towel run (collecting the used towels out of the bins) or I could be running the shade shack which is a smaller shop at Blizzard Beach instead of the Beach Haus. Everyone who I work with is really nice and friendly and welcoming :) Also had no rude customers yet which makes a change from England! Also got to do a magical moment the other day which was awesome!
I'm working 8 days in row and I'm half way through now! So I'm very tired and my feet and hurt and most of my body aches! But never mind, I think I'm really going to enjoy my time at Blizzard Beach!

Because I've been working so much there's not much else to report!

Hope your all well back home!

Missing everyone lots!

Lots of Love Jen xxxx

Hey everyone! :)

So its the end of my first week in Orlando! Has to be said I have had an incredible week! Met some awesome people, seen the Magic Kingdom and Blizzard Beach and seen where I'll be working! Which is the Beach Haus at Blizzard Beach, it looks like a really nice shop and the people in there seem really nice! :) Never thought I would say that I'm actually looking forward to starting work! The only thing I'm not looking forward to is wearing the costume!

I have today and tomorrow off, then from Tuesday til Saturday I'm in everyday, mostly in the shop but I have one day training at Disney University.
Also starting to get a bit of a tan! Hopefully will be nice and brown for when I come back to England!

I think that's it, for now anyway! Will keep you updated as to how my first week of work goes!

Hope everyone's OK.

Sending Lots of Love from the other side of the pound!!

Hey Guys!

So I'm on day 3 in Florida and today was my first official day of work! WOO! Today we had to get up at 5 to go to Traditions, where they go through safety, what they expect of you etc. We also got to meet Mickey Mouse and go into the magic kingdom and got our name badges! So been a good but busy day :)

This evening we are going to the Magic Kingdom to go on the rides and then see the fireworks at 10! I'm so excited I'm like a little kid!
I also found out I'm working in Blizzard Beach, which is one of the water parks if you haven't heard of it! I have my training on Saturday and Tuesday so I get a few days off which is always good!
The weather over here is normally good but I can safely say that its monsoon season!! The rain over here is crazy and literally come out of nowhere! Hopefully will still get a decent tan ;) haha.

Not much else to tell, feeling more at home here now though obviously still missing every at uni and at home!

Hope you are all well!

Lots of Love
