Catch Up!

First of all, I have a humorous story for you. If any of you know my flash player download story; it could be considered very similar. For dinner one evening, I wanted to cook my chicken pot pie. It takes an hour in the oven and only 6 minutes in the microwave oven. I was obviously misinformed about microwaves and microwave ovens, because I thought they were two different things. For microwave oven instructions I was supposed to leave the pie in the box and just open the side. This did not really seem logical when I placed it in our, what I now know as “Toaster Oven,” but I placed it in there and cranked the dial to six minutes. I am intelligent, sometimes, so I made the connection that the cardboard box would not survive the toaster oven. I sat diligently waiting, and sure enough the box began smoking. This is when I decided a microwave and a microwave oven must be the same thing. However, it still amazes me that it only takes six minutes verse an hour in the real oven.

That same night, I went on a Toonie Outing for Micole’s birthday. We gathered at TGI Fridays and enjoyed each other’s company for a while. I think it’s always fun to get together and hang out outside of work.

I realized that I have been here for two months and not really mentioned much about my roommates. Disney’s theme of the CP is Living, Learning, and Earning. Obviously living on your own and with roomies is a big part of the program. Let me give you a short bio of each member of the apartment.

Kaitlyn – is the direct roommate. She sleeps across the carpet from me. She is from Indiana and attends Ball State University where she is an entrepreneur major. You have sorta kind of already heard about her since she was a prearranged roommate. Kaitlyn works at Wilderness Lodge as a bell hop dispatch.

Teresa – is from Indiana as well and attends Indiana University where she majors in astronomy and physics. I believe you have heard tiny pieces about her as she tends to be the one that I go on adventures with. Teresa works in Epcot at Test Track and Mission Space Merchandise.

Erin – is Teresa’s roomie. She is from Wisconsin and happens to be friends with Mickey, Minnie, Lilo, Stich, Donald, Daisy, and so forth. She actually has a degree in mortuary science; she was previously employed by a funeral home.

Betsy – is from Michigan. I believe she majors in Business. Betsy works at the Polynesian Resort as a bell hop dispatch. We have definitely deemed her “best dressed” in our apartment.

Kourtney – is Betsy’s roomie. She is from Las Vegas. Kourtney works in outdoor food and beverage in Hollywood Studios. She is looking to extend her program until August and transfer out to a Florida college and go part time with Disney.

I think we have a very unique mixture of girls in our apartment. I enjoy living with them. We all have our quirks and pet peeves, but life goes on. I’m certainly looking forward to a room to myself again.

Next update much sooner! :)
