Sad News, Magical Days, and Updates!

Hey my lovely readers,
I hope you guys are doing great. I don't update this as often as I would like, but eleven days is better than like once a month, so it is definitely an improvement and hopefully will continue to improve. I don't know where to begin. I guess I'll get the sad news out the way first. Unfortunately, I was not selected to interview to be a Campus Representative. I admit I am kind of sad and was bummed to get that email, but I am a firm believer of things happen for a reason so I guess it just wasn't right. I feel like I am qualified and I worked hard on the application. Maybe they just have enough reps at Oshkosh right now, we'll see. Well that's enough with sad news.
In other news, in my last post I talked about my new friend and how we were going to hang out. We still have yet to do something outside of work, but I'm sure it will happen one of these days. We just met and it feels like we're already drifting, but it's okay we are still quote on quote friends.
Since I last wrote I got to talk to my grandparents and I had not done that in a while. It was nice to hear from them. I have also talked to my parents more often so that's nice as well. I miss them and Loly (my sister) so much. I can't wait to see them.
Well as you guys know the last time I wrote was the last day of peak season so thank God things have slowed down at work. From April 7th to April 27th that is the last day I know of my schedule so far I have worked and will work all night shifts. Which in reality I don't really mind. Especially because lately it has started to get warmer and I cannot imagine working in that heat. This heat made me realize this summer is going to be difficult to get through. I need to prepare for it starting like now. On Monday it was 90 degrees and we're in April. It was surprising, I am definitely not use to this kind of weather especially the humidity. I have to be strong because I will make it through my program. On a positive note it was supposed to rain like almost all last week and it only rained once. Monday was a great day and I will get there in just a second, but this relates to the weather. I really need to stop thinking that I don't burn because I didn't put on sunscreen and well lets just say that was a mistake. I do burn and my face, shoulders, and chest are proof that I need to start wearing sunscreen more often.
On another note, I have been going crazy because I have been craving Mexican and Puerto Rican food. I can't believe I have been here over three months and haven't had Hispanic food since I left. I cannot wait to go home and be able to eat some or hopefully find good places here. I've also wanted to go out to eat, but that probably won't happen for a while. Oh well. Lets see. Random news. From April 7th through the 13th nothing exciting happened that I can remember. Except like three things. I was off on the 8th, but I stayed home all day. At night I hung out with the roomies for a little bit for the first time in a while. I also found out that my ex is married. Once again things happen for a reason. Also, I don't remember what day it was, but Joel bought me pizza and had it delivered to my house it was so adorable. :) Last Friday, he picked up a shift in parking and after we went to McDonald's and got to hang out for a bit before I worked and he took me to work so that was nice. He is such a good friend. I don't know what I would do without him. I'm so glad we're friends. A random fact is we got four new full time transfers and are getting more part time new people, so we're going to have new faces in the parking lot. Well that's basically all my updates from April 7th through April 13th. Now the last three days have had quite some magic and they have been great. I will give you guys an overview of the last three eventful days.
Sunday April 14th. I finally got to hang out with my cp friends/co-workers Zach, Nicole, Leara, and Annie. We went to Hollywood Studios before work and it was so fun. We rode Tower of Terror twice. I have never rode a ride twice especially one I am afraid of, but it was awesome. We rode the Great Movie Ride which I love. We also rode Star Tours. They rode Rockin' Roller Coaster, but I wasn't ready for that yet haha. We walked around. I got some nachos. Before we left I bought my friend Cory and myself some food. Then it was work time. It was a six hour shift, but it was a crazy shift. First, it was the only day it rained all week, like I mentioned before. Then, my friend Leara and I were on a Tram and it went 101 so we had to shut it down. That was the first time I was on a tram that broke down. The reason our tram broke down was because it was low on oil because it was leaking so then the tram lane was full of oil and our tram lane was technically 101 and we had to drive by the planters instead of on the regular tram lane to make sure our guests were safe. Towards the end of my shift, they had said it was not going to rain anymore and then it starts pouring. I was like what is this. It was crazy rain. Lucky for me, I was only out there for a few minutes. Well I had so much fun in the park and work was actually kind of fun with all the craziness. It ended up being a good day.
Monday April 15th. I spent my entire day with Joel and it was just amazing and magical. Yes, I always have fun when I'm with him, but this day was just omgee. It was truly excellent. First, we went to epcot which I love so much. It is my favorite park so I'm always happy when I go there. We walked around and then went through the World Showcase and I did some shopping. I bought candy from around the world instead of drinks haha. We got to ride Soarin' which is my favorite attraction at Disney World and it made me so happy! :D It was his first time and I'm glad we got to ride it. After epcot, we went to the Boardwalk which I have been dying to go to. I was so excited. The Boardwalk is like the cutest place ever. It has my new favorite store even though I don't remember what it's called ha. Literally, it's so adorable and like so romantic and it would be the perfect place for a date. That's definitely something to add to my life bucket list have a date at the Boardwalk haha. It even has a little like beach area with sand, even though you can't swim there it's still cute. Also, I decided I want to stay at the Yacht and Beach Club one day, it's precious. After the boardwalk we went to the magical Taco Bell haha, just kidding, but we went to go eat at Taco Bell and there I found out I looked like a tomato and he didn't tell me haha. It was fun. Then we went to spend the rest of our day at the most magical place on earth Magic Kingdom, not to say that I don't find all of Disney property magical because obviously I do. Magic Kingdom was so fun. We walked around. We went into the Emporium and I found my dad the perfect gift even though I kinda want it for myself. ;) We rode Pirates of the Caribbean, Haunted Mansion, and Peter Pan's Flight. He made my day because he told me he wanted me to watch the Electrical Parade and Wishes because I never have seen Wishes. I know, I know. I will soon. I told him though I didn't want him stuck in that traffic, so that we could do it another day. On the way out the park we found the perfect spot to watch the parade from and we actually watched it and I love that parade. Then we took the ferryboat to the Ticket and Transportation Center and I like riding that boat. As you can tell, it was a very eventful day and I had so much fun and I was so happy. I honestly, could not ask for a more perfect day.
Tuesday April 16th. Yesterday was so fun. It was my first Tuesday off ever. All four of us were off and that never happens so it was awesome. We took advantage of that and we went to a roomie lunch plus Evan at Panera. It was so good. Then we came home and just relaxed and Theresa went to class. Later on, Joel took me to Walmart and I finally got to go grocery shopping yay! I am so excited to have food ha. We had planned last night for a while now. We had a Wreck It Ralph movie night. It was all the roomies, Joel, Evan, and then we invited Marissa we also had unexpected guests for a few minutes. Theresa's friends. We ate chinese food from a place called Citrus Garden and it was good. I don't usually eat Chinese food so it was a nice change. Me and Theresa made Oreo balls, which I'm craving at the moment so I hope there are still some left. We watched Wreck it Ralph and it was the cutest most adorable movie ever. I cried a little. It was such a fun night and with perfect company. I feel so blessed for having them in my life. Well that was basically it.
Today it's back to work for me. It was nice having two days off in a row it had been a while. Next week I'm back to having Monday and Thursday and I'm okay with that. I really need to focus and do school work. I really wanna get an A in the class. I work six hours today so hopefully it's not bad and it goes by fast. I work every day until Monday and probably won't do much before work except hopefully homework and maybe update this. Saturday I might go to Blizzard Beach, but we'll see. I guess that's all I have for now. Sorry if this post is really long. Wonder if anyone will actually read it in it's entirety or at all.
