Hope you’re all doing well.
Well SO I finally arrived... after the most amazing flight I’ve
ever been on – such amazing service I must say – never had flown with Virgin
Atlantic before!
We took a cab from the airport to Vista Way, arriving 7:30pm
(12:30pm UK time – SHATTERED) where we got given our key... even more exciting –
we got to find out what Disney complex we would be living in – and who our
roomy would be!!!! There were 5 of us who arrived together – and 4 of the
others got put in Patterson Court (where I lived in 2008) and I got put in The
Commons – best part being I had been put with CHARLOTTE!!!!!!!! (My friend who
I met through the going process, got on like a house on fire and requested for
me to live with her – she moved in 3 weeks ago) so was loving it. I didn’t
actually know I had been put with Char – until the Big Brother moment happened –
walked into the apartment “Hellooo” no one answered – followed the sign’s to my
room – had a lil nosey – and saw Char’s name badge hanging up – with a cute
note left on the bed -“Hey Roomie, I’m excited to meet you” – she didn’t know
if her request had been successful either.. so anyway we’re roomies – and I
think we do have the best apartment in the complex – en suite bathroom – laundry
room actually in our apartment – massive living room – along with a really big
tele.... what more could I as for! Only problem is the bed is ever so
squeaky!!!!! Soooo I unpacked, and then
went to meet the others at our bus stop (where we met lots of people from the
UK) to Wal-Mart... Whilst waiting a bus arrived – with Char screaming my name
out of the bus window :D ....
Kojack – Caberoke
Well – we were given Kojak’s number to get a cab to Walmart –
and OMG... his cab is amazing it’s really big – white on the outside can fit
about 10 people in there – he has name badges stuck on his ceiling with past
cast members from all around the world – he also has football scalfs... and to
top it all off he has a KAREOKE machine inside..With flashing lights in time to
when you sing – was amazing – the Party Taxi – cheap safe – always around what
more can you ask for... we actually used him today coming back from Florida
Mall – had a sing song – and was taken through Maccy’ds drive through on the
way back.... seriously amazing! SOOO.... back to WALMART.... we were all tired
at this point (was like 10pm here – 3am in UK, had not slept for over 21
hours!) so we just got all of our necessities such as duvets – shampoos and stuff... well now DUVET is another story.
I wanted these really nice satin bed sheets and duvet cover so I bought them
with me from back home – and O EM GEE... I spend over 20 minutes trying to look
and explain to somebody that I was after the quilt which goes inside... they
actually don’t sell them believe it or not! They have them already sewn
together!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So... the lady took me to the sewing
isle and showed me that they have the stuff they put inside – they call it a ‘comforter’
and that I could use that (was just like a big sheet of cotton wool – so I
bought it – amazing enough it’s ok. BUT OMG... this Wal-Mart is a Halfords, Toy’s
R us, Asda, Comet, Matalan ECT ALL IN ONE! They had absolutely everything – and
more apart from a DUVET...! Loll!
Universal Studios & Adventure Island!!!
AHHH.... word’s cannot express how amazing these 2 parks are
– the roller coasters are crazy big – such as the Hulk - there’s just sooo much to do. We actually
got there about half 3 – (park was closing at 7) we got the annual pass! We did
Harry Potter twice – the BEST RIDE I HAVE EVER BEEN ON IN MY LIFE – I know... I
sound well like I’m over exaggerating – but I’m not... you will never know until
you actually experience it – the way they have done is absolutely sooooo
clever.... Harry Potter world with all the shops was good... we also went on dulling
dragons, the Hulk twice, two water rides, and we did that in less than 4 hours
(only 5 min queues!) Cannot wait to go back! We all ended up going to HardRock Cafe.. where I ordered a salad with light dressing - was lush to have some veggies!!! Was such an amazing atmospher in the resto! defo a must!!!
Today has just been a relaxing day – unpacking my clothes –
as it was bugging me knowing they weren’t done – then we headed to The Florida
Mall about 6ish where we got out sim cards/phones sorted which is more relaxing
as I now have my BBM back :D We were shown this cool Motorola phone and OMG...
it was 3d... so if you take a photo on it – it comes out 3D how amazing is
that. You can speak into it say ‘pizza hut’ and it will draw a map out in like
10 seconds to tell you how far away you are – and omega like it was just
amazing.. It was a ‘SHUTTHUP’ moment....
Any way’s I’m going to have a couple of lucky charm’s then
hit my pillow as I’m shattered and we have ‘Traditions’ tomorrow – where our
training begins....Wow you would not believe that all this has happened in less than 4 days would you! Lool
Good Night All J
