The first day of my internship is officially over (finally). This might have been one of the longest days ever. I was up at 5:30 to stand in lines all day to fill out paperwork and be told what we cannot do. I know it will all be worth it in the end though.

My apartment is so nice... a whole lot bigger than I thought it would be. My roommates are nice girls too: Natalia is from Southern Florida, Brittany is from Philadelphia, and Elise is from Manhattan. A lot of different lifestyles combined, but I think it will be alright.

Tonight at the store I went to check-out and I'm wearing a Wisconsin sweatshirt (represent!) and the family behind me was from Wisconsin too! They started talking to me about the program and where I was from. But as I was unloading my groceries, I put a bottle of wine on the counter and they said "well at least you're buying the essentials!" ....awkward. Regardless, it was kind of nice to talk to someone from back home. I met a few girls today too from the Madison area. They weren't very friendly though.

Anyways, I have tomorrow off and then training on Friday and Saturday. Then I find out my training for the rest of next week on Tuesday. Kind of an easy first couple of days I think just to get us settled and then they get to talk at us more.

Can't. Wait.

Oh and ps- I am working in Downtown Disney as a Pin Trader.

That kind of tells you about what I'll be doing. Sounds like I'll get to interact with a ton of people and kids. At first I wasn't too excited, but I really am now. Everyone says it's one of the coolest parts to see. I'm looking forward to learning more about it!

Off to have a glass of that wine :)

peace and love,
