Joy in the Journey

After sleeping over at the Salt Lake City airport because my flight fell through, going through Utah, California, Vegas, North Carolina by myself, and finally arriving in Florida 24 hours after I started traveling; then, almost getting kicked out of my hotel because I wasn't old enough to check in and sleeping for five hours before a day of background checking, fingerprinting, and line-waiting; also, no food except my Starburst packet and fiber bar I packed; getting stopped by the cops while running into an apartment I wasn't allowed in because I didn't realize I needed housing ID and pulling luggage of about 150lbs with me everywhere I went; you would think it was hard for me to have joy in my journey. But it was AWESOME. Coolest adventure EVER! Even though taxi's are SUPER expensive and Florida water is nasty. I am so excited to live here and experience all these new things. Take a look at my new place:

(my apartment is blue though)

Real nice, ya? I had to pack my bedding in my suitcase...so this is all that would fit. But hey, at least it's not an airport :) 

For some reason they decided to take my picture REALLY close to my face. Not sure why. Anywho, I almost got tackled by the police for not having this thing. Go Florida!

Yesterday I got my assignment. I'm supposed to work at Blizzards Beach, but the beach is closed for Winter! So for two months I will work at Hollywood Studios and then move the Blizzards Beach in March. Crazy Crazy. I have a Traditions Class tomorrows. I'm going for FREE to Magical Kingdom Thursday, then I start training on Friday. 

WOW.

Wow.

This is the best.
