Hi From Disneyworld!

Today marks my fourth day in Disneyworld and it is HOT! And humid... But I really do love Disney I'm just a kid at heart<3

We spent the first night with my dad, mom, aunt and uncle getting drinks at our resort.  Then the "adults" went to Downtown Disney leaving me with my 14 year old sister and her friend... and also a credit card with unlimited charging possibilities for food and drinks.  You can bet I took advantage of that!  The kids went to the pool using every trick from tween romantic comedies to "attract" boys, while I sat in the hot tub and read a book.  I just finished "The Fault In Our Stars" which was actually a very good read!  It was one of those books that makes you appreciate your life.  Very heartwarming and thought provoking. 

Magic Kingdom is my favorite park just because it is really classic Disney.  There is a whole new part of the park that was just added within the past year, complete with new rides, castles, and eateries.  According to the guy standing outside of the entrance, MK now boasts the best restaurant in America! (questionable)  This is the Be Our Guest restaurant and it "really immerses you in the movie" and if you're lucky you can get a reservation... in the next 8-10 months.

 Hollywood Studios is where my nerdy side comes out because one of the rides I really look forward to is called "The Great Movie Ride".  It takes you through all of these sound stages of classic movies such as "Singing In The Rain", "Gangster's Paradise", and "The Wizard of Oz".  I blame my father for my love of old movies, "Breakfast at Tiffany's" being my favorite one.  He's always watching them after work with a beer or two... Anyways I also love the Little Mermaid show, Ariel's role, in my opinion, being the cushiest Disney performer job.  She does one show every half hour where she sings like one song and gets to sit on a rock in the air conditioning in a purple sparkly bra for the majority of it.  And she even has an awkward semi-kiss with the guy who plays Eric who has it even better because he is literally on stage for 2 whole minutes. 

And then we have Animal Kingdom, definitely the most forgotten of the Disney parks.  While it does boast a legitimate Safari ride and pretty decent roller coaster... that's about all it has.  But those two attractions alone are worth the trek into the wild!

Finally Feeling Like A Floridian!

          Hi! So before I embark on my next Summer adventure in Disneyworld, I just want to conclude my West Palm Beach one. So on my second to last night we went out for drinks and dinner downtown. I actually got a beer!... (Or 1/4 of one haha the bartender mixed 3/4 hard cider and 1/4 vanilla flavored beer for me) Then we went to Rocco's Tacos which is this famous taco place and it was sooo good! I love Mexican food yum

          Then for my last day at work, I stopped at Dunkin' Donuts for some coffee... And apparently in Florida if you order a "large French vanilla coffee" they automatically assume you mean "iced coffee" hahah I mean it makes sense but it just wasn't what I was expecting. Then at the store I managed to sneak a pic of the buttons Victoria's Secret makes that you can wear if you speak Spanish to let the customers know... I don't know why but I find them hilarious! It was sad to leave my new VS friends but they said I'm welcome back anytime! 

          And then for my last West Palm evening, my rockstar cousin and his girlfriend (both vegan mind you) joined my aunt, uncle, and I for dinner. For the occasion, my aunt Patti made a whole entire home-cooked vegan meal from scratch.... And much to my surprise it was actually pretty good! We talked about my cousin's band and their success on iTunes, and the radio. He also showed me a pic of an ad they have playing in Times Square! So cool! But anyways I'm off to the happiest place on Earth! Will update more later!!

Life Post-LSAT & Pre-Paris

So what have I been up to?? 

I know you've all been wondering!

          Well for starters I have been working my butt off at Victoria's Secret!  Knowing my shopping habits, I will need as much extra cash as I can get for Europe.  I'm already expecting my suitcase to be overweight with my shoes alone... Add all the stuff I'm going to buy over there and I am going to have a serious problem!  So the Semi-Annual Sale just started which basically people take to mean as "the two times a year it is acceptable to be an absolutely insane and crazy shopper".  I've been working at least 6 hours a day UGH and let me tell you SAS really brings 'em out. Especially in South Florida where no one seems to "hable Ingles"!    The silver lining is that there is a Chik Fil A in the food court of the mall! Undoubtedly my favorite fast food place, and since I try to avoid fast food this place is a real weakness.

          Don't get me wrong though... I love my job! Did you know that I can tell immediately if someone is wearing the wrong bra size?? Also I can tell what collection and style of bra someone is wearing just by seeing a little bit of the strap.  And I'd say my accuracy for bra measurements is around 97%.  Not even joking!  And this is actually totally normal to me.  Some of my friends think it's weird... but I call it a gift.  I've been extensively trained in bras, literally, I had to take an exam and have lots of extra training sessions and hours.  I even got a certificate! 

Everyone I work with is so nice too. They even invited me to go out with them to Downtown West Palm tonight!  I'm already feeling at home here but I definitely miss all my VS store ladies.  Anyways, I'm off to cool down and relax in the pool after a long day at work!  My cousin is home from touring with his rockstar band so we're going out to dinner later.  No really his band Surferblood had a song on the Vampire Diaries and the band played on the Jimmy Fallon show!  Pretty cool if I do say so myself.  And no they're not taking applications for groupies... I already asked just in case law school doesn't work out haha I'm also catching up on Pretty Little Liars Season 3 (which is now on instant Netflix if you didn't already know!) and Downton Abbey Season 2 because my aunt has it on DVD. 

          And don't even get me started on the Bachelorette!! I am in love with that show and I blame my sorority sisters.  I never used to watch reality TV until I moved into my sorority house.  Now I can't get enough!  My favorite guys by FAR are Brooks and Bryden.  Although Brooks did seem a bit wimpy about his broken finger...  Oh well I'm calling it now Brooks and Bryden in the finale!  And lastly I am absolutely in LOVE with Desiree's car!!  She got a light blue Bentley for going on the show.  If she gets to keep it, having your super dramatic dating life be on national TV is well worth it.

Update: I'm Still Alive! (Barely...)

It's almost 6am and I am getting really tired of studying for this test... Add that to some seriously severe weather, and I am exhausted.  So consider this a much needed mental break!

Sometimes/a lot of the time I get unmotivated and want to give up when something becomes difficult and tedious.  But then I remember the dreams that I have and what I need to do in order to get there. 

Getting what you want isn't easy, but getting what you deserve will happen almost every time.  It's when what you want IS what you deserve that dreams can become reality.  

Tropical Depression

So I've been told that South Florida is experiencing what they call a "Tropical Depression"!  Well I would definitely agree because the past week has just been gloomy and rainy.  Seriously cutting into my tanning... I mean studying... time!  But as far as what a real Tropical Depression is, according to my Weather Channel app it's like a mild hurricane.  Well good thing this storm that's headed for Florida has upgraded from a Tropical Depression to Tropical Storm Andrea!  Which still really means nothing to me, being from Michigan, but again my app says that it's more intense than a Tropical Depression but less than an actual hurricane. 

Well obviously there would be some type of tropical weather emergency while I'm in Florida so to my friends and family, feel free to divide up my things if I don't make it out alive.  If you can find anything of value it's yours to keep!  I guess this is my official tearful goodbye!  But all joking aside, Andrea's not even headed to the east side of Florida so we're just going to get a bunch of rain...  Oh well back to studying!  The LSAT is on Monday so I won't post again until after. Wish me luck!

Rainy Days

Well it has been raining for the past few days here in Florida.  And when it rains it really pours!  The pool is even overflowing.  The good news is that I have been able to avoid the sun so my sunburn could heal but the bad news is that it is getting increasingly hard to study in this gloom. 

To give myself a little inspiration to study I have recently picked up a new addiction and it comes in form of the TV show Scandal.  I normally stay away from shows that are about lawyers because I don't want to give myself unrealistic expectations.  But I watched one episode of Scandal and was immediately hooked!  I watched all of season 1 on Instant Netflix and then got the free week of HuluPlus to watch season 2.  I justify this as my study break instead of being in the pool so it all balances out in the end!

If I can be like Olivia Pope one day then I will definitely make sure to do well on the LSAT hahah maybe this is why I don't watch shows about lawyers...  Oh well I am almost finished with my first LSAT book then I am going to take some practice LSATs.  Its coming up quickly though! I just want to be able to say I did all I could and feel confident about that when I take the actual test.
