Spring Break Trip Reflection

I wanted to post about this sooner, but getting back into the swing of things after break has been a bit difficult. Overall, i had a great trip at WDW, and I also learned a lot of things. Here's what I learned:

• I prefer working in an office than in a store
• Lots of things have changed since I left 7 months ago
• I forgot where the bathrooms were
• I missed Disney ALOT

Yes, of all the things I learned, I learned how much I had missed Disney. I missed the excitement, the magic, and my friends. Seeing all my coordinators again felt almost like I had never left. I watched the 3 o'clock parade like I always did, except this time was the new "Festival of Fantasy", which absolutely BLEW ME AWAY. I will love "Celebrate a Dream Come True" always and forever, but "Festival of Fantasy" is definitely my new favorite.

Besides the fact that my feet hurt A LOT, playing in the parks again was a blast! We went to Magic Kingdom at least once everyday, and had so many fun adventures! From dancing with Mr. Incredible, to eating a special lunch at Be Our Guest, WDW was the best choice for spring break!

I honestly don't know what God has in store for me this summer, or next year after graduation. But being back in Florida honestly felt like home, but I was unsure of where I will end up. I mean, I'm actually open to all kinds of possibilities now, and that will be remembered when I apply for professional internships next year. But for now, from May 20-July 24, I will be back in my Magic Kingdom in the Ye Olde Christmas Shoppe, figuring out exactly when my life will begin.

Adventure is Out There!

So, in about 26 hours, I am heading to Disney with two friends for Spring Break! It's crazy to think that tomorrow will mark seven months since I completed the college program and came back to Liberty. It's been sort of a rough transition, but many opportunities, lessons learned, and friends have come with it.

One of the things I'm most excited about, surprisingly, is working on Monday. I get to work a stock shift back in my Liberty Square home, and will get to share my first time seeing the new parade with some of my favorite cast members. I'm preparing for tears of joy, lots of laughs, and getting covered in glitter from stocking ornaments!

If you asked me seven months ago if I'd be looking forward to going back to Disney for a trip, especially to picking up a shift, I would probably say "I'm not sure." At that time, I just really wanted to be home and get back to "normal." But, coming back made me realize there's no such thing as normal. Normal is just where you feel the most comfortable, and at that time, I felt most comfortable in Virginia. Now, I'd say I am comfortable with both places, but I'll let you know about that when I return.

In just a few hours it'll be time to follow the second star to the right,straight on 'till morning, because adventure is out there!
