Downtown Disney


Tonight we went to the Rainforest Cafe in Animal Kingdom then we headed off to downtown Disney to see the shops! The food was amazing as always in the rainforest cafe and there was around 12 of us Brits there which was nice to meet some others in the same position as me. We then headed on the bus over to Downtown Disney, which was ambushed by some loud and drunk Mexicans that had just arrived; which was interesting!

The shops are amazing there! Cannot wait to get my discount and go on a HUGE shopping spree! Definitely going to order some artwork to send home with my parents to decorate next years Uni flat and basically buy up the whole stores Alice in Wonderland merchandise!

Tomorrow I have more housing check ins (more paper work), then I get my Traditions appointment time then we are all spending the day by the pool to work on our tans!

Here's a few photo's from this evening

I've Arrived!


Got here yesterday about 5pm, queues for passport control and baggage weren't too bad and I was the only person from the Disney UK group that didn't get taken in for questioning at the airport, clearly I don't look suspicious! We then got a coach to Vista Way housing and there was all Disney people to welcome us with Hersey's Kisses! We then got given our room numbers and where we were going to be staying and I have been placed at Chatham Square and its GORGEOUS! I'm sharing a flat with 2 English girls and 3 from Hong Kong. We then all made a trip to Wal Mart to stock up on some American Food :)


Today was an early start had to be at the Commons for 8am then had a loooooonng day of watching presentations and filling out forms, but at least we only have to do that once! Then the rest of the day I have been laying out by the pool with my flatmate! Then tonight we are off to Downtown Disney with all the UK group!


Here's a lovely photo of our pool!

My Friends


I have the greatest friends in Essex and this post is dedicated to them! I've known them all for so long and couldn't ask for better friends to come home to! I decided to compare them to their favourite Disney character or just because they remind me of them! I'm going to miss them very much and hope they all have an amazing summer (without me!). Love you guys.

1 Day To Go!


1 day to go until I'm in Florida! Very excited and haven't quite finished packing yet. Got my goodbye meal with my friends from home tomorrow at our favourite restaurant! Still can't quite believe I'm off to work at Disney for the whole summer! Had a really good couple of weeks at home with my friends and family but still got to do my insurance, think I'll be going with ACE. 


Theres a few people from the Facebook ICP group that are at Gatwick the same time as me so think we are meeting for drinks at breakfast at the airport. Very excited to just get there now and get moved in!


I guess my next post will be when I'm there!!!

My 21st Unbirthday


Before I went off to Los Angeles & Las Vegas for my 21st my best friends threw a surprise party for me- and it was Alice In Wonderland themed!!

They did an amazing job of making cupcakes with 'eat me' on them and painted red roses! They also made me the white rabbits watch clock as my birthday cake! 

I literally have the greatest friends in the world and can't believe the amount of detail they put into all of it for me!

Love you all!!

Here's a few photo's from the night!

Los Angeles & Las Vegas


Haven't blogged in a while as I've been so busy! Just had my 21st & my friends threw me a surprise Alice in Wonderland themed party (i'll do another post for that!). Also just got back from Los Angeles & Las Vegas for my 21st birthday trip!


Had such a fantastic time, we visited family & friends in Santa Monica, Hollywood, Venice Beach & we also went to Disneyland in Anaheim! (Which i've included some photo's below!) Loved going back to the original park and made sure I done all the rides that aren't in the Florida park. Only 25 days until i'm off to Disneyworld Florida and getting so excited to be there!


After LA we went to Vegas for a week and it was so good to finally be able to drink and go clubbing there! Stayed in the MGM Grand & the Cosmopolitan (which was so gorgeous!). 


Literally had the best holiday ever and can't wait to return!
