Time is going so fast!

Ooops! I havn't posted in agesss! I have been so busy and writing a full blog post does take some time. Anyway I the night off so might as well catch up on this! I am not gonna remember everything I have done over the past few weeks but I will try!

So the last day I talked about must have been the 12th July. On the Fri 13th and Sat 14th I was closing Arcade, pretty boring shifts tbh! On Sunday 15th, I was back down at the Marina and was working with Chuck and Steven. I get along really well with these two so it was a good day :) Chuck is the sweetest guy ever, hes probably around 70-75 years old but hes amazing. He always takes the mick out of me and we have a good laugh. It was raining in the afternoon so we just sat in the Marina and chatted and joked around, I realised how much I am gonna miss Chuck, its going to be horrible saying goodbye to him! It was a great shift though :)



On the Monday and Tuesday I was closing arcade again. Then on Wednesday 18th I went to Miami! Me and Kirsty had to be up at like 3am, didn't help that I didn't get in from work til 1.30am but never mind! We got to the bus stop and we were both dead, after faffing around with buses we were on our way. We tried to sleep on the bus but it really didn't happen at all. When we got to Miami we all (all 400 of us in total) went to South Beach, its a really nice beach actually. We sunbathed and went in the sea for a bit before deciding to head off to find Miami Ink! I love that programme so much. It took us ages and noone in Miami knew what it was??? Anyway we got there in the end and it was so surreal being in there, looks completely different to the one on TV though, think in the UK its a bit behind time. I was so tempted to get a tattoo and Chris Garver was there from the show but it would of cost about $400 for a tattoo so I decided against it. We also visited the DASH store which was very overpriced! Then looked in Gift shops and went to TGI's for some food. The journey back was hideous, couldn't sleep again and it takes like 4 hours. Didn't help that the bus drivers credit card wouldn't work when we stopped for fuel so that added more time! We got back home and went to bed, we were shattered!

The Thursday I was off and just slept all day because of the exhaustion from Miami, I rung home and had a trip to Walgreens but nothing too exciting! The Friday, Saturday and Sunday I was working then on the Monday 23rd I had given my shift away so I went to Hollywood Studios with Lauren! We got fast passes for Toy Story Mania and met Woody, Buzz, Mike and Sully then some from the Incredibles. Leanne joined us later on and we got food and stuff before heading to check out the Grand Floridian! It is gorgeous, very luxurious haha. We had a wander round before heading back home. On the Tuesday I was down at the Marina again, it was an average shift, nothing exciting. After work we had all planned to go to Applebees, we got some food and some drinks which was nice. Then we sung Take That on kareoke which was hilarious cos Americans don't know who they are! Was a funny night!

The Weds and Thurs I was off and on the Weds me and Kirsty sunbathed by the Pool before going to Epcot to go around the world. It was good and we got Chinese and the Chinese Pavillion (obviously) it was average though. We then collected stamps and flags from each country which was cool, then I think it was on this night that we went to the Polynesian to watch wishes from the beach, Leanne came to join us too. It was really nice and we sat on the beach for a while. Then I can't really remember what I did on the Thursday!

Anyway I'll end this post now and start another one about thee past week or this will be way too long! xxx
