Work Hard...Play Hard

Well welcome to July, I literally can't believe I've been here for a month now! It's scary how fast it seems to be going, but then it feels like a very long time until I will be returning home. I know I haven't really talked about the work side  of Disney yet so here it goes. As you all know I am working in Epcot, in Future World, which is the front section of the park. I can work in upto 6 different locations, 4 of which are shops, 1 is stroller rental and the last one which is the glow cart (which I am yet to do). So my main location is stroller rental, which is much funner than I first expected, althought the heat can get a bit too much sometimes. All the people that I work with are really nice, and I finally feel settled in at work now. However people are starting to leave next week and then people are going every week from then till I go home, which sucks as I will be saying bye to people quicker than I said hello. I mostly work in the evenings as they give all the ICP's the night shifts and the full timers the nice shifts! But I'm getting use to it now, just annoying sometimes when I don't get to go out of an evening with everyone else. 

So I had to work 4th July, and I have to say that was an experience in itself. I thought Boots was bad on Boxing Day, well this was a whole other level. They closed Magic Kingdom at around 7:30, which meant that everyone's second location was going to be Epcot, meaning that stroller returns was hideous once the fireworks were over and done with. On the plus side, I was in the perfect location to see all 3 set of 4th July fireworks and it was safe to say Epcot's were pretty amazing!! 

Although I am working pretty rubbish shifts, I am really enjoying it and can't believe that I only have 7 weeks left until I finish. But on the plus side Jo and Hannah arrive in 2 days, which is very exciting :) 

Also an update on the bucket list I have completed 2 things on the list: Watching wishes from the Polynesian Beach

 and Be in a parade (ish) haha! 


Hopefully will cross some more things off next week once the sister arrives on Friday. Think I've sort of covered eveything I wanted too, but tuff anyway as I have to go and get ready for work. 

Bye for now xxx
