On top of my dreams is where I'm found...

That's right on top of all my dreams right now.I can't believe with every day and hour that goes by I get that much closer to living in Orlando and working for Disney. I've started shopping and pricing things. Only thing that rips me back down from my dreams is the fact that I don't have a constant job. It sucks because I want to be able to buy me a camera but my town has horrible economy and I just can't find a job...but this blog is a happy place!

But anyways this was just a little catch up of whats been going on. I'm really excited about meeting all my friends from DIS and all the others I'll meet. See ya soon! :)

SoOoOoO

I thought it would be fun to show you guys my living quarters aka my room! :) *CLICK ON PICS TO VIEW FULL SIZE PLZ*

First off is my "Entertainment Center" as I like to call it. This little section is decked out with a 32 in LCD HD LG TV...a lot of acronyms for one TV isn't it? Icluded with the TV is the ever so popular PlayStation 3 wish doubles as my blu-ray player. Aslo in this pic you can notice my Costas and a few collectibles.

Second on the showing is my dresser...well the top of it anyways this baby is slammed full of Gamecocks collectibles. That I'll miss while I'm in Florida. Just an idea of what's here. I have 2 mini helmets one is stacked full of autographs and one is a rare helmet. The big mug is a victory mug it has LED lights the flash when you turn them on. The vault in the background has every fact about Carolina football ever. I've only read it once lol. The two cups in the background on the right are collectible cups.

Next we're going to look at my first bit of Disney ever. My grandma bought this for me the first time we went to Disney unfortunately I haven't been able to hang it yet. :( (It was up in my room at my grandmas house)

Last but no least is my computer area. This pic is really blurry but in it you can see my laptop, ipod, wallet and keys to my car the stack of papers is my career start folder lol I'm messy. Also I've added a pic of my grandmas old pen (not pin) holder I lost the pen that fits in Mickey's hand but it also has a pen she bought from Disney World. She used to use them all the time.

Can't believe it...

How quickly life can change. I don't mean to sound sappy here and when everyone meets me I'll actually be myself and not so sappy. But I was sitting in the Social Security Office today to get a new card since my old one is half destroyed. When I realized...about a month or 2 ago I was working at Honda of South Carolina and was about to settle with a mediocre life. I was going to just work the rest of my life and go to Disney and stuff when I could. I was going to stay in Florence and just be another person who talked a lot about my supposed great future but not work at it. Fast forward to present day and I'm now counting down the 140 days before I leave Florence for a while. Before my life changes. It's amazing how life works and how things can seem so boring and dull before something amazing happens and makes you realize that you have no control over what happens to you.

More amazing than that is how a single man's vision is going to change so many lives. How Walt Disney even from the grave continues to be an inspiration to so many people and gives so many people jobs and opportunities they never thought they would have. I truly can't wait to get to Disney World because everyday going to work I have a chance to make someone's vacation so special that it will set it apart from anywhere in the world.

But probably the most wonderful thing about all of this is my Grandma Sammie Gardner...unfortunately she isn't alive to be with me in person to witness this amazing time of my life. However I know she is here in spirit watching over me and I know she helped me get this opportunity of a life time. She was like a second mom to me and if it weren't for her I wouldn't love Disney the way that I do. I'm dedicating myself to working as hard as I can in a way that she would be proud of me.

I know this is a little deep but I had to get it off my chest. I'm ready to meet you all this September and I can't wait to have all the new experiences that come along with living at Disney. So as Mickey would say "See ya soon!"
