A Saturday at Hollywood Studios

Woke up early, but decided to go back to sleep. Once I took Loki for a walk I went over to Dunkin' Donuts to get 2 donuts, a bagel, and a white chocolate latte. The latte wasn't too great. I have decided that the brownie batter was better than the cookie dough one. I got the pictures off of the Disney PhotoPass website since some where going to expire the next day. I booked some FastPasses, but then I took a nap so I headed over to Studios to hang out until close. I went on Tower of Terror where the lady behind me thought it was a real hotel and told her husband to book a room there next time. The two people in my row were behind me but were stupid so they cut in front of me in the line so I got to sit front and center which was awesome. Then I waited single rider for Rockin' Roller Coaster. The Family Holiday tickets are going to expire soon so I decided to get a pop (which was pretty much all ice) and explore the gift shops. It was really weird to think about things that are in my categories that I will be working on.

This dog is something else. lol!

I headed over to catch the next drawing class which is one of my favorite things to do. I had the same animator who I drew Pooh and Eeyore with. I thought it would have been pretty awesome to draw another character from Winnie the Pooh, but he had already picked out Grumpy. I think that it turned out pretty good. Nick tried to get a hold of me at the end of the class to let me know he got out of work so we decided to hang out in the park.

Not too shabby

We met up in front of what is left of the hat. While I waited for him I looked at the pin cart. They have some cool Star Wars pins with the characters on different attractions. I don't like Star Wars but I even considered buying them. Instead I decided to get the spiny Doug pin that I had been debating getting for a long time. I decided to go for it and get it before our 40% holiday discount expires. 

The hat looks kinda sad

Eventually I saw Nick walking down the street. We headed over to the Great Movie Ride. We were in the last row which is a pretty crappy spot, but we still had fun. Then we went over to the Muppet movie. While we waited for the next show we talked about the opportunities of staying down here in Florida after our internships end. At the end of the show there was a cute little girl asking her dad what they were going to do since the theater was destroyed with the cannon. He reassured her that they would rebuild it for the next show. It was about 20 minutes until park close and Fantasmic had just gotten out so we decided to head out instead of fighting the crowds or anything.

I was craving Jimmy Johns so I decided to find one. It was pretty close, but once I drove there I realized it was in Old Town so I basically couldn't get it since I couldn't find a parking space on a Saturday night. I decided to head over to Publix and bought some stuff to eat for the next couple of days. I stayed up pretty late watching Netflix and whatnot.

New ID and Last Day Off

Got the okay email to get my new ID so I headed over to Access Control at Disney University this morning. I had heard many people call it the Disney DMV since you have to wait a long time, but that wasn't my experience at all. I went around 11 and took a number (number 50 to be exact) and no one was waiting at all. So a man called number 49 (who wasn't there) and took me instead. I turned in my old ID, he looked up some stuff on the computer, took my picture, told me to take a seat and I had my new ID in just a handful of minutes. Now I have a new picture ID without an expiration date like my old one so I will probably wouldn't have to get a new one if I were to stay on with the company.

I also found out that I am starting on Tuesday. I am excited to start but now I am a little nervous too. Since I hadn't heard anything I was almost hoping to start on Wednesday so I could spend Tuesday with Nick since we don't have the same days off, but at least I will get the same paycheck as I did as a presenter.

I got some Chick-Fil-A for lunch and spent the rest of the day resting and watching Netflix. I was going to head over to Hollywood Studios but found out it was closing soon and decided not to. So I ended up just watching Malcolm in the Middle and taking a nap. I was supposed to hang out with Sandra, Abel, and Ashley S, but Sandra wasn't feeling well so we decided to go out to dinner tomorrow after I get off work instead.

...now go have a new one!

So now that my last PI is over I am excited to be starting a new one! I will a Category Planning Professional Intern for the Spring 2015 term. The offer came a little late, but I am really excited to stay here at Disney and use my math degree to explore a new facet of the company. 

Thanks for the adventure...

Today marks the official end date of my professional intern as a Consecration Education Presenter. I had my last day of work on Thursday, yesterday we had a farewell breakfast and our team met up at Magic Kingdom to watch Wishes for one last time (and said our farewells to Kelsey). Tonight we are all celebrating by meeting up with some of our coordinators at the Boardwalk.

This baby stuck with me through thick and thin and thousands of Conservation Messages

AWWWW! I will miss this team!

If you don't take a pic in front of the castle with Graduation Mickey ears,
 did you really complete a Disney Internship?

One last Wishes

Fall 2014 Presenters Clear.
