So things haven't been going as nicely as I had hoped.

I'm ridiculously homesick to the point where I'm throwing up from crying so hard. I already spoke to my parents about coming home early, so it looks like I'll be home sometime early next week. Honestly, I've never been happier about anything ever before. I can't wait to get on that plane and just go back to what I known my whole life. The college program was decent while it lasted, but the cons outweighed the pros. For example:

CONS: I'm depressed being here.

I'm bored beyond belief.

My job isn't something I want to ever do again.

I'm working my ass off for a crappy salary.

I miss my bed, my family, my friends.

I want to go back to school.

I'm living on my own.

PROS: My roommates are awesome.

Everything is a bus ride away.

My apartment is pretty nice.

I'm living on my own.

So yeah...cons outweigh the pros.

Shit...there goes the tears again. It's kind of ridiculous how much I've been crying these past few days. To quote Nikki Snelson..."Does the well ever run dry?"

Guess not.

2008-07-15T14:03:00.000-07:00

1:30 am seemed like the perfect time to caravan over to IHOP with Becky B and a bunch of her co-workers.

The above photo is the result of what happens when you cross a box of three-foot-long Pixie Dus...er, Sticks, a box of miscellaneous hats, and a group of insane college kids.

MY FLORIDA THEATRE DEBUT!

2008-07-09T20:40:00.000-07:00

I knew I'd find a way to continue doing theatre down in Florida.
I'm officially a member of STAGE now, which is the Disney cast member community theater. I'm in 2 of the 3 one acts they are currently doing, lovingly titled Twisted Tales. I'm Petula, one of the stepsisters, in Cybernella and in the ensemble for Belina and the Beast. Yes, you read that right. I'm so excited! If you'll be in Disney World August 1, 2, 8, 9, or 10th, come see the shows at the CIRCLE OF LIFE THEATRE in EPCOT!

A Photo A Day 13: The Astro Orbiter

2008-07-01T12:14:00.000-07:00

A bunch of us went to MK to see the 4th of July preview fireworks. They were amazing, oh my goodness. Then we all decided to ride the Astro Orbiter, where we saw this sign in the elevator. We're so mature.

A Photo A Day 12: "Are y'all sisters?"

2008-06-30T12:10:00.000-07:00

My friend Lara and I in the breakroom at work. This was right after the millionth person that day asked us if we were sisters. We told them all yes, haha.

A Photo A Day 11: WALL-E!

2008-06-29T22:05:00.000-07:00

Molly, Amy, and I took advantage of our cast member discount at AMC and saw Wall-E together! It was Amy's 2nd time since she saw it the day it came out, a few days earlier. Look how excited we are!

A Photo A Day 9: Magic Kingdom PJ Party

2008-06-18T15:57:00.000-07:00

Becky B and I went to Magic Kingdom in our pajamas and had the best time. We were sung to by an auto-anamatronic alien at a diner in Tomorrowland, and we rode Snow White's Scary Adventures (which totally lived up to its name, omg), and watched the SpectroMagic Parade for the millionth time.

A Photo A Day 8: Michele's Birthday!

2008-06-16T15:53:00.000-07:00

Happy Birthday to Michele (one of my roommates!) Michele, Amy, Becky, Stacy, and I went out to House of Blues and basically danced and drank the night away. I wound up wearing the birthday crown at some point.

A Photo A Day 7: I Love My Life!

2008-06-12T15:48:00.000-07:00

I love that I get to watch the "Wishes" Fireworks every night if I want to. I cry every. single. time.

A Photo A Day 6: Goats for Dinner?

2008-06-11T15:45:00.000-07:00

Oh Asia Bagus Sushi Bar...not as good as Engrish, but funny none the less. (For the record, I had sushi with goat cheese.)

A Photo A Day 5: A Little Slice of Home

2008-06-03T15:41:00.000-07:00

My friend Kristy from NYC flew to Florida to be with her mother for a few weeks, so she drove down to Orlando to visit me! She brought Madison, a soon-to-be Cast Member with her, and we hung out with Allie, who works at Magic Kingdom.

A Photo A Day 4: Cast Members R Us!

A Photo A Day 2: Punk Rock 80's Pool Party

2008-05-29T22:31:00.000-07:00

All of us girls from 19101 (plus Lexie and Allegra) get our Cyndi Lauper on at the welcome pool party at Vista Way.

2008-05-28T08:26:00.000-07:00

That's my roommate Molly and I on the line at check-in! She's a character performer and a huge fan of Kristin Chenoweth. I love this girl already.
