FINALLY
After 5 weeks of job hunting and applying for over 25 positions I FINALLY have a job! I am going to be a reaction leader/camp counselor for CampCo Day Camps! Woohoo! I am so relieved to finally have a job and end my awful job hunt! I don't start training until June 15th, so I still have a lot of time to work for my dad or go to the beach but still. I officially have a summer job! anyway, that's all I wanted to share... peace out :)

Downtown Disney...Just Another Reminder of How Much I Love Disney!
Yesterday I got to check another thing off of my summer bucket list because I went to Downtown Disney!!!
I went up there with my friend Mike from high school to have lunch and just walk around. It totally made me miss Disneyland and California Adventure! But unfortunately this was the closest I could get since my pass expired last year...
Besides the fact that the inside of the lego store is super cool, they have cool lego Disney characters outside of the store!
I went up there with my friend Mike from high school to have lunch and just walk around. It totally made me miss Disneyland and California Adventure! But unfortunately this was the closest I could get since my pass expired last year...
Also, I don't like the new entrance to California Adventure. I seriously miss the old one where you could take pictures in front of the letters that spelled out CALIFORNIA. Those were the good ole' days I guess. Since the tram to the parking structure was the only free thing we decided to take a round trip on the tram just for kicks!
I thought it was pretty exciting and it brought back even more memories haha We also stopped at the Lego Store ,which by the way was freaking awesome! They have redone it in the past year and it was legit!
Cardboard Lego Version of the Hulk haha |
Ya that's a wall full of different colored legos! So cool. |
Besides the fact that the inside of the lego store is super cool, they have cool lego Disney characters outside of the store!
The Prince & Dragon From Sleeping Beauty |
Beauty & the Beast (With Cogsworth & Lumiere in the background!) |
The person we had take this picture failed at getting buzz lightyear and woody in the picture, therefore I had to take a picture of the characters with out us in front of it and somehow I managed to get this little kiddo in my picture as well haha
And that sums up my Thursday afternoon at Downtown Disney! peace outt :)
