Check-in Day!

I made it through the first day! It has been a long, long process and I am super exhausted.

After a restless night, I finally arrived at Check-in at Vista Way at about 8am. The information says it officially started at 9, but people were checked in way before then, even before 8am! It basically felt like waiting for a ride, except at the end of the line there was a mountain of paperwork. 

I'm living in a 3 bedroom apartment in Patterson! There are currently two vacant beds in the apartment - one in my room and one in another, so fingers crossed the people that move in aren't crazy. The guys who are here seem alright. If you know me in real life you know that I don't do well with the male gender so we'll see how it goes.

We were shipped off to Casting where I had a mini-heart attack when they told me that the birth certificate card I had brought was not a valid document. BUT they double-checked and it worked. Phew. It was only 9:30 in the morning and I was already having heart palpitations! That usually doesn't happen until at least 2pm.

I am working at Hollywood Studios at The Muppet show! At first I wasn't that jazzed about it, but now I'm thinking it's beginning to grow on me. We'll see for sure once I go to Traditions and my training and such.

After Casting Allie moved me into my apartment! I then had my first experience at Cici's. It was awesome - Mac and Cheese pizza!

After lunch there was a housing meeting which was a grueling 2 hours long. They went over basic information like no alcohol in wellness apartments and visitor information and all the things that could get you terminated! I'm determined to not be termed obviously, but I feel like some people are here for the wrong reasons. We're here to work and not just party. I may be a negative nancy about this, but I have heard so many stories of people getting rejected even though they are perfectly good candidates and actually want to work. 

My apartment went out to Wal-mart (ahh!) and dinner at Planet Hollywood for the first time! It was insane - we had a cart overflowing with stuff for the apartment and we seem to be attempting to share food... We'll see how long that lasts. I feel like we're all going to be on different schedules so the food will be all scattered. Planet Hollywood was awesome. Bette Midler was on the wall from when she was in Hocus Pocus!! It was awesome!

Where's Waldo On Crack

Tomorrow I have the day off! I don't really know what I'm going to do... Have I made friends? Kind of. I talked to people in the lines but we didn't really exchange numbers or anything... I have Traditions on Wednesday and I actually don't begin training until Saturday. Still - I have this lovely bedroom and bathroom all to myself until (probably) Wednesday!!

Oh and it's going to take me awhile to get used to military time - I have to subtract 12 hours every time I look at my watch!
