Where Do They Come From...

Guest: *Stomps up* Where can I go to file a complaint on someone?!

Me: Um, you're gonna wanna head back out to Main Street and do that at the City Hall.

Guest: But if I wanna complain about someone do I have to wait in line?!

Me: Yes, ma'am. There's no fair way to decide who has a more pressing matter.

Guest: That's just ridiculous!

Me: Well I just came from there and there wasn't a line, so maybe it's still fairly empty right now.

Guest: You better watch it, I'm complaining about YOU!

Me:... Pardon me?

Guest: You heard me!

Me: Ma'am I JUST started my shift; may I ask why?

Guest: ... Your name isn't ***?

Me: ... No ma'am, I'm *Baby Rabbit*. *shows nametag*

Guest: ... Sorry then. *walks off*

This *** character must be quite the jerk...

Easiest. Mystery Guest. Ever.

Guest: Hello. I'd like to buy these three bananas, and I'd like to pay with a credit card.

Me: Alright. Bottled water or anything like that for you tonight?

Guest: No, thank you. *hands card* Where are the restrooms?

Me: *swipes* Around the corner on your right hand side.

Guest: Thanks. What time are the fireworks tonight?

Me: 9:15, right after Fantasmic at 9.

Guest: Okay. And how do I get to Small World?

Me: Keep going straight out of Toontown and make your first left.

Guest: Okay. Do you guys have any more apple juice?

Me: We're keeping it in the back right now. Want me to get you some?

Guest: Um, no thanks.

Me: Alright.

Guest: Can I See your nametag?

Me: *shows*

Guest: *scribbles furiously on paper* Okay thank you!

Me: Have a good night.

Bein A Grown-Up

Hey all, long time no talk.

So I've noticed a few things having had moved out.

I imagined myself going to Disneyland before shift, after shift, and all days off. So what am I doing now on these two days I have off?

Last night I went home from DL three hours before closing, and today, if I go at all, it'll be to ride Splash Mountain once or twice and see Fantasmic.

Has DL lost it's appeal? HECK NO!

Has TOONTOWN lost its appeal? A million times YES. All I can think of is work when I get near there. Work isn't UNBEARABLE but it's not a great role either. It's a nice in-between that gets me through my days. My coworkers consider me to be the quiet outcast and I like it that way. Two reasons mainly: one, I'm the 'outcast' because I tend to be all-business at work and because I'm the youngest one by far there, and two because anyone who knows me well knows that a job where I can concentrate on my work independently. I have my own personal ways of coping with undesirable situations, so it gets me through.

I also don't know where I'd be without my friends. My "links to the old world" I call them. I miss them dearly but many of my friends who have gone through this assure me that the sting goes away eventually.

I've noticed that it's not just home I miss, it's being a kid I miss. And I simply can't do that forever. It's that thought that stops me from going back. It's been a roller coaster. I'm happy to be here and then not happy to be here, over and over. I suppose that'll go away soon too.

But anyway, as I was saying, DL has not lost it's appeal at all. On the contrary, I grew up in DL and it is my second home. I've just realized what being an adult is like: my idea of a day off is sitting in the house and doing NOTHING.

I'm enjoying it though. Tomorrow is a 4 hour shift which is especially nice. 

I just went grocery shopping all on my own with my own money and felt REALLY darn cool doing so. I'm sure that'll wash away on it's own as well :P

I'm off to do more laundry, nap, and hopefully get to DL.

Comin Up to the End...

The song "High School Musical" officially makes me sad.

It's extremely relevant to me and my friends about to part ways.

I noticed a few things today.

While writing my letter of resignation for the Laughing Place, I realized I had no idea when my last day was, due to the possums getting out for winter break. December 18th. Woah, WHAT? That's four weeks ahead. Holy HECK. Two more paychecks and I'm gone. Dang...

I also got on the computer to do my homework today and realized I only had two assignments left in each class. Holy heck times two...

I'm excited to go right now, at least. I need some sort of widget that'll tell everyone when I'm happy or sad to go, haha.

Roller Coaster Riiiide...

Yea, I took lyrics from HSM instead today. I went there.

Actually I'm just running out of Song of the South lyrics :O I knew it would happen sooner or later.

So it seems I've fallen into that trap most Disney CPers fall into with these blogs: I stopped posting after I got accepted.

I'll post more lengthy things soon... Right now I'm trying to just sort out my life because I am both excited and terrified to do this. 

More exciting stories to come later I'm sure...

Zipedee Do Da, Zipedee Ay, My Oh My What a Wonderful Day!

I'VE BEEN ACCEPTED TO THE DISNEYLAND COLLEGE PROGRAM!!!

AAAAAHHHHH!!!!

I was a bit disheartened today. The mail was an hour late and I was getting a lil teed. Mama Rabbit told me before my last trip to the mailbox to not be disappointed if I didn't get in because she just read that it was much harder to get into the Disneyland program than the Disney World program.

So I shuffled to the mailbox, now extremely anxious, not even caring what the answer was at this point because the anxiety has allowed me no sleep in two weeks.

And there was the giant white envelope. I pulled it out to make sure it was from Disney, and lo and behold. I was gonna open it when I got inside, but then I realized that wasn't gonna happen and opened it.

And there was that beautiful purple folder!!

I'll be Quick Service Food and Beverage. Not my top choice, but one of my top three's at least, and I hear it's a pretty desirable position; well payed, lots of hours, busy, all that jazz. And I wasn't kidding when I told my recruiter there are no bad jobs at Disney. I hope to get Blue Ribbon Bakery, Pizza Port, or especially the Gibson Girl ice cream parlor!

I'M SO EXCITED!!!

For those of you Laughing Place inhabitants wanting to squee with me about this, I'm off to youth group, but stick around, I'll be back later tonight to squee with you all!

I Zig and I Zag, I To and I Fro, That's What You Ask Me, That's What You Know...

Yes... Zigging and zagging from home to the mailbox... That's what I've been doing with all of my time. I'm so excited about this darn letter! :)

Me and Mama Rabbit are visiting my Sissy and Nephew Rabbit until Monday, so hopefully my mind will be off the letter in due time. I hear letters aren't going out until this weekend, so hopefully monday, tuesday, or wednesday will be the big day.

In the meantime, two of my good friends and Auntie R took the time to write to me today to tell me they're thinking of me and to hang in there. I'm so lucky to have so many people that care! I'm lovin it!

Perfect strangers on message boards are emailing me as well, saying they're crossing their fingers and hope to know soon, it's been awesome! I'm dreaming about working at Disneyland every night, I'm ready for it to be real already.

*crossing fingers*
