I'm finally here!

Alright, so as per my promise, I'm keeping you updated. Monday, the day finally came to move into my apartment. I woke up at an hour that I rarely see (unless I'm still up from the night before..): 4 AM. After meeting up with Julianna, our flight went pretty well. We arrived at about 9:30 to the Orlando airport, caught our Mears bus, and stopped at our final destination: the Vista Way Apartments. There, we went through a couple steps in order to sign in and receive our housing assignment. Julianna and I were placed into a 3-bedroom apartment in Vista Way, with Anilly, Arrielle and Sage. Yes, if you do the math right, we only have 5. That's because our 6th roommate arrived on Monday, and decided to go home that day. It made us sad =(.

Monday night, Julianna and I went to dinner at the Rainforest Cafe in Downtown Disney(DTD for future reference.) After dinner, our plan was to go back to our apartment and nap, but we ended up hanging out with our apartmentmates instead! Together, we swam, met some boys, and then went back to DTD for the remainder of the night. Being pooped (and rightly so) we went to bed shortly after arriving home(!!!) for the night.

Tuesday, I woke up bright and early, although it was a bit later than the day before. This time, I woke up at about 6:30, got dressed, and went to our Housing Meeting. That wasn't really the highlight of my day. You know how it goes. After the meeting we started decorating our apartment. I bought the foam for my bed, my pillow and everything I needed. Now, even though we're still in the process, our home is starting to look a little bit better.

After all the decorating, we went to the pool party in our complex, had free pizza, and danced! We went for a walk in Vista, and then dyed my hair, got ice cream, and swam some more.

Today, I woke up bright and early again, hoping that maybe this concept of "morning" would get a tad bit easier. When my alarm sounded at 5:30, I was not astounded to find out that indeed, morning still sucked. I got dressed up all nice and pretty for Traditions (our "Orientation" day) and went, for my first official time, to the Disney University. It was pretty exciting, honestly. However, I wore the wrong shoes. Apparently, 4-inch heels do NOT like walking on cobblestone. My feet were doing the "Disney Tingle" after a mere 10 minutes.

Just now, I returned home from the Magic Kingdom. I'm so excited to be a part of the magic and the show. There couldn't be a more right place for me to be at this moment in time. I love it here!
