me in the middle with giuli and hannah at mk
So time is flying and i'm forgetting to keep track of it. A lot of this past week and a half is a blur, i'm struggling to remember what i did each day!
Saturday June 28th
Stitch at the Hat at Studios-- This was a fun day, different from other days I've been in this location cuz of Star Wars Weekends! We shared an off-set location with Leia Minnie, Jedi Mickey, Darth Goofy and Storm Trooper Donald. They were very cool-- donald was actually a guy! (rare) he did an awesome robot :) normal sets for the first two, the 3rd was during the star wars parade, so we did a roaming set in the great movie ride courtyard, which was really fun, then took a big group picture of all the hat characters. after my work day was over, i watched block party and then met up with giuli to explore star wars weekends. We met Leia Minnie (the same girl who was in my off set location, which was fun, she recognized me and gave me big hugs) and then tried to meet chewbacca, but it started raining. So we met mike and Sulley instead, then played with the singing in the rain umbrella and walked up and down streets of america. we tried to watch the Star Wars Hoop-la show, but it was downed due to rain. So we went home and to bed.
Sunday June 29th
Dopey in Germany (epcot.) Worked with a snow called whitney who was awesome, and then went home and did i dont know what.
Monday June 30th
Day Off, went to studios with gemma and friends, and giuli, went on toy story mania, did an animation academy class, saw block party and then went to partners, and then sam and I went hot tubbing.
Tuesday July 1st
Tuesday was a highly anticipated day for me-- it was the day of my kidnapping! Giuli and Gemma had given me strict instructions to be at their place by 7 am. At almost 8, we departed, along with jennifer, to the club house, where we got into a mears shuttle. we arrived a little later at universal studios! It was a blast, i really enjoyed it, although i could really see the difference between the service standards there and in Disney.
We started out the day at the Simpsons ride, which was very cool, and hard to describe. I would def recommend it tho! And then we visited Gemmas very dear friend E.T, where she attempted to buy out the shop. We saw the Terminator 3d show, and then watched a hilarious Horror Make-up show (hilarious except the line 'this isnt the magic kingdom,we dont have to be nice to you) and then we went to watch the Shrek 4-D show, which was cute, and then had lunch at Monsters Cafe, which played clips of old cheesy horror films. It was tres gory and fun.
After lunch we did Twister, which was basically standing in a room while things (including an obviously plastic cow) whirled around you, Jaws, which had an obviously plastic shark swimming towards you, and the Mummy, which was an AMAZING roller coaster with fire and all sorts of cool effects. Then we did Men in Black, which is kinda like buzz's space ranger spin in mk. We ate Dippin Dots too (love!) and then headed over to Islands of Adventure.
Gotta say I liked islands of Adventure better than Universal Studios. Universal was cool, but a lot of the rides seemed either dated or 3D, which is cool but there wasnt a lot of variety. The theming at universal was cool, a lot of landsapes and such, but overall it was fun but not amazing. The roller coasters at islands of adventure were AMAZING.
We started out at the Hulk, which was incredible, and then walked through Super Hero Island to Comic Book City where we went on Dudley Do Rights Rip Saw Falls, which was like splash mountain but way steeper, and with a way longer queue line (not that there was anyone in the queue, but we had to walk all through the line area anyways). Giuli made me sit in the front of the log. I got soaked, and the view from the top of the drop was terrifying.
Then we walked through the jurassic park area, which i wasnt fond of, i really hate dinos, so we continued to the lost continent, where we rode the blue and the red side of dueling dragons, another awesome roller coaster. Strangely, nothing had anylines-- literally, the longest line we stood in was for Jaws, and that was only 30 minutes. so after the Dueling dragons we went to Suess Landingand rode the Trolley in the Sky, and then left islands of adventure again. By this time my feet were killing, so we sat for a bit, then giuli really wanted to do jurassic park so i went with her and waited outside while gemma and jennifer dis the jimmy neutron ride at universal. Then we went to see the Universal laser show, which wasn't anything amazing-- it was fireworks and clips from moview projected onto white floating thingys-- but the fireworks werent even as good as local ones in barrhaven on canada day. we were unimpressed. Then we went to Hard Rock Cafe, which was awesome, and then headed home.
Wednesday July 2nd
I was a spare at mk starting at 6:18 am. I didnt get pulled for anything, but I did get fitted and disapproved in jiminy cricket. I left at 5:30 pm, went to the hot tub with giuli and hannah, and then went to bed really early.
Thursday July 3rd
Spare again, starting at 6 am, got pulled for one set at judges tent, spent my lunch in ariels grotto visiting my friend from training, karley, and then helped decorate the warm up room/duty base for 4th of july. Left at 3:30, went home for a nap, left again, met giuli and hannah at giuli's work in the Grand Floridian Resort, ate at Gasparilla's (her work), took a boat to MK, watched the AMAZING fireworks for the 4th of july (a day early but who cares?) and then went to Hall of Fame, met Chelsie as Princess Aurora, then met belle and cindy. Went to judges tent (where I had worked earlier in the day...) and waited way too long to meet mickey and minnie. Then home and to sleep.
Friday July 4th
Stitch 3 at Island Mercantile. A good day, but a long one. a bbq at the parade building for all of entertainment was fun tho, with lots of awesome desserts. Off at 5:30, home, nap, Giuli and I decided to see 4th of july fireworks at Hollywood studios, which were even better than the ones at MK (tho much shorter). We got there on a bus 10 mins before they started and were on our way home on the very next bus. sleeeeep.
Saturday July 5th
Daisy at the Hat at Studios. Fun, easy, short day. Home by 2:30, 3 sets and a magic moment. Afterwards went home and had an early night.
Sunday July 6th
Daisy 1 townsquare, MK. A really good day, i love being daisy, shes so girly and diva-licious. Done by 3:00, got a ride home, which was great. Another early night, after visiting apt. 2402.
Monday July 7th
DAY OFF. apparently the physical toll of these costumes is catching up with me-- i'm exhausted. Or it might be the early mornings i've had this week.... Mostly today i've cleaned my room, talked on the phone with my momma, and have plans to swim this afternoon. Fun Stuff!
