So I've been really awful at keeping this thing up. For that, I am sorry. I can honestly say I've been caught up in the magic and the mystery of Disney.
So, where did we leave off? Wow, was it really Halloween? Well, Halloween has come and gone. It was truly a great time of year here at Disney. If you can ever make it, the Halloween parade it worth it! The character are all out and ready for meet and greets, and 5 hours is just not enough time to do everything!
Christmas was beautiful. Every park had decked their halls, and the Christmas trees were stunning. Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party was lost of fun. Same idea as the Halloween party, but just Christmas instead of Halloween. Very exciting indeed.
Family has come and gone, and my time with them was truly incredible. I've made countless new friends, and met people from literally all over the world. I've learned to say a very few phrases in Spanish, and can finally understand a teeny bit of it when being spoken to. I've also learned that guests turn off their brains when they come on vacation. They don't hear a word you say, or read a single sign. I've had some of the dumbest questions, and the hardest thing to do is not laugh, but answer it like it's the first time you've heard it.
I do have good news to pass along, I've been offered the chance to extend my program! I put in the application and waited very patiently, and found out I'm extending into Attractions at the WORLD FAMOUS JUNGLE CRUISE! Needless to say, I'm extremely excited. I start my training there on Monday. So I'll be here until May 11th now. Then I'll go home finish the 20 hours of class I have left, and then probably come back for another go around the ol' wheel.
For the most part I really, truly enjoy it here. Every day I get to make people's vacation that much better. I also have the opportunity to make a guest appearance in their own memories from their Disney Vacation. WHile any job will have it's ups and downs, and Splash definitely has it's downtimes (literally), for the most part I enjoy what I get to do, and really look forward to where I can go with it in the future.
