I went to Magic Kingdom...

I went to magic kingdom on my own the other day. I needed some time alone and i was hoping to see wishes with bryant when he got off work... i only made it like 3 hours on my own in magic kingdom before i felt like i was going to die from the heat and sweat. so ill show you the pictures i took in magic kingdom while i was wondering around main street. I got some good ones LET ME JUST SAY! some are sort of repeats but yea. this was my hour or two at magic kingdom. :)

Overtime.

I had my first overtime shift Ever. I know that seems strange but Epcot costuming rarely provided overtime opertunities. Other costuming locations did but i never went to those parks. So today I went into work at 10:00. My shift started at 11:00 but i was there at 10:00. I was nervous when it looked very very scarce cast member wise and i had already decided i wasnt going to put in for the extention but if they wanted me to work i would work. So then about an hour into my shift my manager Robert, who seems very nice, asked if i might be able to say since there were so many call in's and i asked how late he would need me because i was really only interested in extending so late. He was like well is 10 to late and I was just like no 10 is perfectly fine. So i extended until 10. That made my shift a total of 11 hours but with the half hour of lunch i get it really make it 10.5. so in any case i made 2.5 hours of overtime. That is really really exciting considering that i got gypted hours because of random things like my training being screwed up and what not. so now its like it got paid to work hours i didnt work normally. its exciting i must say. :)

Star Wars Weekend

So I have no idea if you are into star wars. I am just a tag along when it comes to knowing about star wars. I know very little and the things i do know are things i picked up from friends over the years who would probably cry if giving the chance to meet George Lucas. So May 20 - June 12 on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays you can go to star wars weekends and do your everyday basic things you would do in studios but there is more involved in the event that that. Obviously with the new revamp of Star Tours it is very very busy there and therefore the store is very very busy. There is special merchandise that disney only puts out of the weekends but more than that people get very excited because the number of limited edition disney and star wars things shoots through the roof. Its so busy with people looking for star wars merchandise that Disney has set up an extra tent.  People are walking around dressed up and there is an extra parade that is just star wars. Its pretty crazy. I have to get ready for work at the muppets shop and a fun filled weekend with star wars fans at work.
