Update On My Life

Hi y'all!

First off, I want to apologize for not being so active on this blog. I promise you I really was going to start posting more! However, fate decided to change its mind when my laptop's screen cracked! Long story short, I had to check my luggage and when I got back to Florida the screen was shattered. However, Delta was awesome and pair for the damage. Now I have a spanking new screen!

Second, I've been home from Florida for almost two months now! I can't believe it's been that long. It seems like just yesterday I was watching the fireworks for the last time at the Magic Kingdom.

I am no longer at St. John's University anymore. A lot happened my sophomore year and I think it was just about time for me to move on. So as of now, I am taking a semester off and hopefully you will be reading this blog by a future Georgia Bulldog (fingers crossed)! I actually just sent in my application today so I really hope everything works out! The University of Georgia has always been a dream school of mine, especially in high school! So the thought of making this dream a reality puts such a smile on my face. I know I said in a previous blog post that I was applying last spring, and actually I ended up getting in! But I also got accepted into the Disney College Program and I just knew I had to grab that opportunity when I had the chance.


Well that's all for now, but I PROMISE my updates will be more frequent!

Um... Hi?

Well hey there... it's been quite a while since I've posted. Last time I posted, I was just accepted into the Disney College Program. And six months later, here I am two months into my program!

Me and the boss himself!

I work in three different stores in Downtown Disney, Once Upon a Toy, Fun Finds, and Mickey's Pantry. Was I disappointed when I found out I wasn't working in one of the four parks? Of course I was at first. But now, I don't regret a single thing. I have made some of the best friends here so far. Work can be very tiring sometimes, but it is so worth when you're making others happy. One of my favorite things to do is when I see a little girl dressed in a princess outfit is to run up to her and ask her for her autograph. They always light up with joy and their parents get so thrilled. 

Some of my coworkers and I in front of one of our stores!

So now that I decided to start blogging again, I can't promise that it will be everyday. However, I wil try my best to blog as often as I can. 

I want to say though that I have never been this happy until I started here in August. I am constantly smiling all the time and having the absolute time of my life. Moral of the story is, make yourself happy and do something for yourself once in a while. It's completely worth it in the end.

Watches galore and a Liebster Award!

On Tuesday I went into the Kate Spade store on 21st with my pledge sister Karen after work so she could go buy a phone case. As she did that I obviously had to go look around. I swear, if money grew off trees, I would buy every single item in that store. There was not one thing that I didn't want. There was one specific thing that caught my eye though: the watches. I was in complete awe by how cute they were! This one especially got my attention:


I just LOVED the bows! I also decided to do some online "window" shopping, and these are some of the watches I have been raving over:





ALSO:

I have been nominated for another Liebster Award from The Pink and Green Prep! Thank you so much for the award!
