Getting into a routine

So I feel like I am finally getting into a routine! I feel like I have been here a lot longer then a month and a half. I know where I am going, what bus to take, where to go at work. It is nice feeling like I am in a routine. This week I started my back of house training to learn the different roles in the kitchen. It is nice learning the back of house assignments as well as the front of house assignments so I can see how we all need to work together and what goes into the back of house jobs. My assessment is not until sunday, so in the meantime I have a few front of house shifts as well as another day of BOH training. I have been getting to the parks on my 1 day off a week which is nice. I actually had 2 days scheduled off for next week but I only had about 32 hours, so I decided to help my friend out and picked up her shift on one of my days off. So that brings me up to 41 hours and only 1 day off. I have been having a lot of 6 hour shifts, which is nice, but that means I get less days off. I need to go grocery shopping soon, but it is hard because the buses take so long to get to Publix. I will probably try and go tomorrow after work so I do not need to rush to get back. I actually plan on buying real food and not microwavable things. I am going to try and cook real meals. I figure I need to start somewhere. So I am going to start out simple. We will see what happens. Everything has been going great at Disney so far and I can't wait until I get to explore more. I hope my roommates and I can go out to eat as a group or something soon, we have all been having different days off. The times we hang out most are at 1am when we all get home from work. So we stay up late, sleep late then go to work at night. I only have 1 closing shift next week and the rest are during the day so it will be nice to be able to actually cook a real dinner!!! I hope everyone else out there is having a great experience so far too!

WOW! What a month!!!

I cant believe I have already been down in Florida for a month!! Where did the time go??? I have been working soo much! With only having 1 day off a week I havnt gotten to do too much, but I did get to go see the 4th of July Fireworks on July 3rd! So they were the 3rd of July fireworks? They were amazing with the 360 degree fireworks! I even got to see them on the 4th while I was working. I just happened tobe bussing tables outside so I got to watch! I forget if I ever said where I am working. I am working at Pecos Bills Tale Tale Inn and Cafe! So far it is going great! I am starting to get friendlier with people from work which is nice. I havn't gotten to see my roommates all tha much since we have all been working a lot. Tomorrow is my next day off so I am planning to either go to Epcot or Hollywood Studios. I have yet to see Fantasmic or Illuminations so I want to see one of those tomorrow. Maybe I will park hop so I can see the Frozen event at Hollywood Studios then go to Epcot. We will see! I will try and keep this blog more updated but it is really hard when I am working this much!
