Has anyone ever hung themselves on a palm tree?

Is that even possible?

Oh, and that is a picture of a snake 3 meters from my door.

Is this going to work this time?

Last time blogger droid wouldn't update.

I'm at the Kennedy Space Center. Or space. Depending on who you talk to.

I Don't Know Why I Do What I Do

I work at 5 AM tomorrow and for the rest of the week, so I should use my day off today to get the groceries I desperately need or something, but no, I'm going to EPCOT with Marlon and Betsy. I'm waiting for a bus now to go to Betsy's apartment and she's driving us I guess.

The bus is ridiculously early. I'm on it now.

I also need to go to Target and buy pants. You don't care, long story, but I do. And I'm not. My life as an adult: end up not doing things you need to because Disney.

My lunch today was a Klondike bar, a tortilla and a fun sized snickers from Easter. Yay food.

Children should be seated and supervised when using scissors.

I went to Star Wars Weekend.
 And I'm going again tomorrow, because these pictures are from last weekend. Well, tomorrow as in, today, because it is past midnight, but, yeah. Plus, "am going" is a bit optimistic because i was planning on going today (yesterday) but just sat around and watched movies and wrote Christine a letter that I have yet to mail.

Plus, it's Lisa's wedding day and I love Lisa and I'm super depressed I'm not home now and I can't go to the wedding and ah.



Ok, Star Wars post, here we come.

Went to Anthony Daniels' talk, he plays C3P0

I stood in line for an hour, got a bit bored, and took this picture

Ewoks were all, bowing down to Anthony and he was wearing a gold jacket and was charming

I love R2D2 and him and Anthony were having an argument, in which R2 only beeped insistently

He said, here's a photo opportunity, posed, and then told us to put away our cameras for the talk so we could enjoy it

I got some really awesome pins and they're awesome passports for Han Solo and Obi Wan Kenobi
Skywalker family t-shirt and R2D2 Mickey Ears that are now mine.

No looking cool, guys

Today I was as lost as a panda in a desert.

But don't worry, I survived.

So I woke up semi-early because I wanted to go to Free Comic Book Day which is on the first Saturday of May. Today!
And then I drove there! How self sufficient am I? (answer: super self sufficient)
And while I was there, look!
I got free comics!
And I saw Jack, the guy I worked with one day at Animal Kingdom Lodge who told me about today and said I should come find the store, and then I did, because I am an adult and can do things on my own.

Interrupting picture story time to tell you a story with words. So I used my gps to get to the comic book store by putting the address of the mall that it is across from in there, but then the gps wanted me to drive on a toll road, and I was like, no way silly gps, I'm not driving on no toll road, so I ignored that, and we went a different way after it "recalculated."

Well, after going to the comic book store I was hungry because it was like 1:30 and I hadn't eaten yet, so I thought maybe I'd go to the mall that was supposed to be across the street and find food there, but I didn't see it, and I ended up driving like, a whole bunch, just around, and then on the highway, and then, just, I don't know, like I said earlier, like a panda in the desert. I just headed west, kind of, because I had went east to get to the store. It was an interesting adventure, but now I know where things are, like the Corrections facility, and the Orange County jail, and the Blood Center, and the Holy Land Experience, and Home Depot.

I eventually turned my gps back on, because I decided I was too hungry so I should just go straight home instead of find more creepy alleys to drive down.

Ok, so then I make it back home, and go get the mail, and LOOKIT:
Can you see that? That is from Sarah, it is a letter, and Doctor Who stickers, and a TARDIS pen. The stickers want to be stuck all over everything I own, but at the same time they want to be preserved forever because they are awesome.

Oh, and I bought this at the comic book store.
lil!Robin says hello.

I actually did cool things on my day off today

So I went on a backstage tour of The Great Movie Ride today and it was super awesome.
Our lovely group
 I was on the wait list, but it worked out, and it was funny because I met some people when I was waiting to find out if there was room for me (the guy in the blue next to me and the girl next to him)  and they were super ready to stand up for me to get on the van if people showed up late to take my spot. They were super nice. Apparently everything was super.

So we had two guides, Jon and Thomas, and they were not only nice, but also attractive, which you know, was nice. I don't have any pictures of them in their original clothes, but we'll get to that later. So we walked through the ride and it was amazing.
Singing in the Milk
Mary Poppins is a Timelord
Everyone loves James Cagney
AND THEN, and then, obviously at this point we were in Gangster country, and then SUDDENLY JON SHOWS UP AND IS MOXY AND STEALS THE TOUR GROUP.

Jon made a wonderful Gangster
Jon stole the tour from Thomas and it was lovely
I hope you can tell that Jon was a very handsome Gangster, because he was
And then Jon finished the show and told us all about the scene and stuff, all nonchalant  

So then we moved on, with Jon the Gangster as our guide, and entered the Western section of the ride where we stopped and took pictures and Jon told us about stuff.
I didn't get a picture with Jon in Western town, but my friend John did, so here they are
AND SUDDENLY, THOMAS TAKES OVER THE TOUR FROM JON, AND THEY HAD AN EPIC BATTLE OF EPICNESS. I MEAN, SERIOUSLY, THE BANDIT STOLE THE TOUR GROUP FROM THE GANGSTER AND I DIED OF AWESOME.
Look though, how amazing are they?
Best moment of my life
Previous picture is now my desktop. Cool story bro.

ANYWAY, moving on.
Okay, last one of epic showdown of epicness
BUT WHO GETS THIS PICTURE THOUGH
Previous picture here is of Jon the Gangster, Thomas the Bandit, and the Alien from the movie Alien. I do not like the Alien section of The Great Movie Ride. No I do not. I usually become Cousin It from the Addams Family, where my hair is all covering my face and I don't watch any of it, but we walked through it and they talked about it, and luckily the Aliens were not moving so I could be a little more brave. The ceiling Alien still freaked me out a little, and Jon and Thomas may have laughed at my fear a bit, but WHATEVER.
this is how much I care
 We did go to the Pyramid place where the Gangster or Bandit goes and tries to steal the jewel and then the tour guide comes back, but seeing how both our tour guides were Gangsters and Bandits, they just competed for it.
Thomas "won" and therefore was the one that died, and it was great and can you tell that I really loved this tour?

And then other cool things.
Munchkin in a nest, don't ask questions
This is all of us on the Yellow and Red Brick Roads
But seriously, where does the Red Brick Road go? SEQUEL!

And, after the entire walk through, which doesn't end in Oz, but I don't care because I don't have other interesting pictures of the walk through, we headed to the backstage tunnels where we couldn't take pictures. We saw the tunnel the guides take from the Gangster place and the Bandit place to get to the Pyramid place, and we saw how the door rotates from behind it and they talked about their awesome guns that all the Gangsters and Bandits get. Don't worry, they fire blanks, but they are real guns.

When we walked backstage, at one point I was like, this smells like Alien, and John was like, yep, it's right behind this wall, hear the creepy cat? And I was like, yeah, I never watch it, but I know what it sounds, feels and smells like.

Oh, and I'm facebook friends with John, not Jon the tour guide, but John, the person in that one picture who was going to fight the people to let me go on the tour. I don't know if you can see his pictures, but he has an album of 200 pictures from this tour, some of which I stole and put here in this post.

I bought the movie Tangled, also Tangled action figure things that are adorbs the other day. Also, 12 Klondike bars, only 6 of which are still in existence.

For dinner tonight, before the tour I had 2 Klondike bars, and after the tour I had strawberries, shrimp and popcorn chicken. How classy am I. Answer: super classy. Sarah and I are going to have the most awesomeist kitchen filled with random, classy food next semester and it's going to be so great and I can't even.

Rain makes me go WHYYYYY

It was raining today and I slept till forever but then I had to go to the store and I didn't want to leave the apartment. We did go to the store. I bought Klondike bars and popcorn chicken and animal shaped easy mac and milk and strawberries and frozen pizza and shrimp and shampoo and strawberry applesauce and chips and dulce de leche and tortillas. And ketchup.

I still haven't heard from the people that went to Ireland. They need to tell me everything about the trip and they haven't and rawr. (I mean, yes, I know you're alive, but that TOTES DOESN'T COUNT.)

So, my 21st birthday is the weekend after the first week of school in August, and on that weekend we are having a party folks.

Christine is telling me that I don't get home for 5 months, but here in my apartment we do math differently so we are done here in 4 months. April, May, June, July, and then the first 10 days of August that totes don't count because people usually take off the last week of their program so they can go to the parks.

I haven't been to the parks in ages. So much worrrrrrrrk. Life sucks.

Figment is my Fave

I went to Hollywood Studios with my roommates Crystal and Elisha today.

They don't know where this blog is, perhaps I should tell them. I am so bad at telling people about this. I see Cassie found me (hey Cassie!) and I didn't even tell her. (Cassie's my only official follower actually. The rest of you are just stalkers)

We ate dinner at Kona Cafe at the Polynesian, which is good because I work right by it and had never eaten there.

Australian boy works at Kona, but he works lunch.

Rawr, I'm a dragon!!!

It's cold here. 44 degrees.

I'm going to Animal Kingdom

By my apartment I heard a mockingbird, and I loved it because it was making a whole bunch of different bird sounds and then started in on car alarms. It was adorable.

I'm waiting for a bus to take me to Animal Kingdom, which I have not made it to yet. It closes at 6, so that's depressing, but I'm putting off things til tonight so I can go today.

I'm scared of this bus because I don’t know where it will let me off, and I don't want to us a cast entrance because I look like a child today.

I really need to do laundry.

In which Mary stops hulking and starts sulking

I saw lots of you on the computer today and it was pretty. Someone needs to tell Lisa about this blog. That someone could be me, but you know how prompt I am at things. Like vlogging. I'M WORKING ON IT. Anyway, it was lovely seeing some of you.

So, I didn't work today, so I went shopping and bought things at the cast only places for 75% off, and things that have the Disney College Program on them.

Y'all need to stop bugging me about CJ, we don't like CJ, he was nice and all, but we don't have anything in common. He likes to go clubbing. Come one people, I would much rather actually be friends with Australian boy or the very nice people I met on the bus today that invited me to the Hoop De Doo Revue, but they must not have been able to get reservations because they did not text me saying they did. I have met so many more people than this one person you have latched onto.

I LOVE ARMADILLOS THOUGH. It's so weird, I've never seen an armadillo before, and now I've seen 5, and they all stay in the same areas, so I guess they have like, a territory that they stay in.

I don't know what else I need to tell you.

Christine, that bird really was adorable though.

I've been walking to the bus stop from work at midnight by myself lately, so I've called Christine and my sister once so I don't feel so alone in the dark. Sometimes that leads to rambling.

I need to mail thingssssssss.

Is this moving? It's supposed to move and is awesome.





If you have questions for me, like, what I'm doing, or, how cloudy it is, or anything, you can comment here or ask me or anything, seeing how you can actually call or text me cause it's not like I'm in Ireland or anything.

OH, I haven't addressed the title of this post. I randomly and irrationally got super angry inside while eating dinner at Captain Cooks and starting hulking at Christine and Sarah. Then I turned super sulky because I didn't want to get up and walk to the bus stop because it was far away.

I got a Deadpool comic book collection in the mail to day and it's pretty and I loves it. "I don't know what that is Mary." I hear you saying to me. To that I say, whatever, I don't care, I still loves it. It's comics guys.

In which Mary does what she does best: procrastinate

So here I am, eating pudding, wishing I had got more done, but being all, meh, because I'm not bovvered.

I went to the store, that was good right? But then I forgot to get milk, which apparently we need, so that's fun.

I vlogged some, but it's not done, so have fun waiting for that.

I did not do mail stuff. I wanted to do mail stuff, but did not. It's hard.

The internet buffers video super slowly, so it takes me forever to watch things, for instance, last night's Supernatural that I have been trying to watch all day.

I have to work in the morning, 8:30, so I guess I have to keep normal time tonight with the eating and going to bed and all, but seeing how it's 6:14 and I haven't eaten dinner, but I did have pudding, normal is not exactly what's going to happen.

BTW, you probably don't want to eat a quesadilla while watching a Fringe episode where people's skin melts like cheese. Yeah...

oh dear lord I was almost stranded forever

I decided to ask where the college program buses were at Epcot, turns out I should've just taken the monorail and done stuff like I was used to because this is so scary. So lost, you don't even know.

My head hurts a lot, but it is awkward sitting here, so I'm going to tell you about my day:

I went to Epcot.

I went to Captain EO, Figment's Journey into the Imagination, Test Track, walked around the world, American Adventure, ate dinner in China, went to O Canada, bought some stuff, went on Spaceship Earth, and am now lost completely, but I think where I am is the bus stop.

I SUCCESSFULLY AM ON A BUS AND IT FREAKING BETTER TAKE ME HOME.

Let's try this again

I don't work today, and I fully intend to actually do my plan of shopping, but I'm starting in Hollywood Studios today, a little Tower of Terror and whatnot, shopping, then Magic Kingdom shopping. Perhaps actually going to Epcot for dinner this time. I don't know. I just got groceries yesterday so I could eat at home too.

Don't you guys even get started, I have no news of CJ. He went to Hollywood Studios yesterday, and I don't know what he's doing today.

Went to the Magic Kingdom

Nbd, just went over to the Magic Kingdom with my new friend CJ. He had never been to the park before, so I showed him around. We went on Space Mountain, walked through Toon Town, since it's going to be destroyed in like three days, then we went to PhilharMagic, Small World, Big Thunder Mountain, Pirates of Caribbean, and Jungle Cruise. We then got food and watched the Electrical Street Parade, the Castle projection show thing, and then the fireworks show Wishes.


Ah, I have to work in the morning. Weep.

I need to go to the store and buy food. Weep.

I didn't do any of the shopping I was going to do today at the park. I was going to buy all my stuff now while I still get the holiday discount, and still need to do that because I went on the rides instead today.

So, when I told Christine about my day, this is what she said: "YOU DO REALIZE THIS IS LIKE, A SUPER ADORABLE STORY FULL OF ADORABLENESS AND AWESOME"

I am still a little wary of that definition of my day, but I thought you'd appreciate it.

Oh, I need to mention that I met CJ while on the bus I was taking to go to the Polynesian to get my costumes changed before I took the Monorail to the Magic Kingdom, and that he came to the costuming building with me because we were having a good conversation. I'm sure Christine will tell you more if you ask her. So will I, I guess.


03 February 2011

my first day off

HEY Y'ALL!

So, I don't work today, finally, and am currently on a bus to go to my resort so I can get some new changes of costume, put them in my work locker, and then head to the Magic Kingdom to do some shopping.

Sad news, I tried to send a postcard, I have it right here, but I can't find the mail building, so I'll do that later. Sigh. (Lyndsey, I don't have your address btdubs)

I can't decide what to do for dinner, because I don't think I want any Magic Kingdom food. I might go to Epcot... I know a good Chinese place that has red bean ice cream I really like.

I don't understand Portuguese at all. Tis confusing.

Work yesterday was really pretty good. My managers are really funny. One of them wants there to be a mashed potato and martini bar at her funeral. The more you know...

Today is the Chinese New Year! I really should go to Epcot for dinner! You're not supposed to do a lot of things on the Chinese New Year, like cut things, wash things, break things, no cleaning at all, including hair and the like. Heh, yeah, no.

This guy on the bus yesterday was like, "Hi, I see you have the Droid R2-D2, I'm from Puerto Rico, talking talking talking." He was nice.
