It's Christmas Time...(so here's a little update)

Hey ho!

Soooo other than that video I haven't updated this in a while (I seem to say that quite a lot on here!) so not to bore you, here is a quick summary in the life of Nick for the last month or so:

...

1) Happy Thanksgiving! It was thanksgiving here and we had a turkey dinner at work! Yay! Other than that it was just like any other day...Sorry Americans.

2) The day after Thanksgiving was Black Friday. Me and Monika finished work at 1230 and after a normally 15 minute drive home taking over an hour due to the crazy traffic we decided to go shopping! Black Friday is when all the shops have sales starting from midnight so we eventually got home and went to the outlet mall at 2am...It was the busiest I'd ever seen it although sales weren't as great as I was expecting. Bearing in mind I had to get to work at 8 we managed to get back home by 6am...eek. (the next day was not fun!)

3) Would you believe it I brought a scarf! And actually wore it. In Florida. Here is a picture:

4) We saw the Blue Man Group on Monday...Wow. It was so funny, Karen got chosen to go up on stage and sit next to them. The music was amazing, we didn't stop laughing and we only paid $32! Love it!

5) Work might be getting busier and busier but I'm getting more bored...We find out where we will move to by the 23rd...I can't wait! And some people are extending for another 6 months yay!

6) I got a new nametag! haha Sevenoaks is now spelt correctly!

7) We have decorated our apartment! Wooooo! $100 well spent at, where else, but our friends at Wal-mart!

8) So after earning our 'Ducktorate' last semester I am now the proud owner of a 'Mouseters' degree....hmmm

9) This Monday and Tuesday I'm going to Miami for the night annnnnd guess what, the week after I'm going skydiving Aaaarggghhh! Brace yourself for a video from that!

10) I need another haircut. Hello Wal-mart.

Well I think that's about it! Merry Christmas folks!

Love you

Nick xx

A lil' trip to a lil' ice hockey game...

A Disney Vlog from Disney...What?!

CMU lovelies...

Here we go then, some pictures from the lovely weekend up in Central Michigan (Mount Pleasant to be exact!)...

So there you go a random assortment of piccy wiccys from three fun filled days at Central Michigan University, sorry they are in a kind of crazy order. We all stayed in different halls around the campus and it was definitely different from uni at home. The football game was the main highlight of the trip which involved us basically standing for three hours (we left early in the end!)...we still don't understand that game! We also went rock climbing, spent A LOT of money in the CMU shop and feasted ourselves on the best fast food central Michigan had to offer!It was a lot of fun!

Work an' all...

Ok so first I must apologise for doing a rubbish job on updating this blog. I apologise. Whole-heartedly.

Secondly, I realise I have worked in the All-Star Resorts since I last updated, here are the costumes: (Yellow t-shirt not Disney Look I was just wearing it when I took the pictures and didn't want to take it off!...Lazy!)

It was much busier than other places where I have worked and also very international, thus allowing me to flex my well-toned Japanese and Chinese language muscles...all two words of each. I also spoke a little bit of Spanish...which was quite embarrassing!

Thirdly, I'm listening to Take That while I write this (just to let you know).

I just got back from a long weekend visiting CMU in Michigan so I will do a separate post for that and try to upload the thousands of pictures, it was so much fun and a very welcome break form work... Oh some of us saw Cirque du Soleil at Downtown Disney last night which is crazy but brilliant!

Finally, I want to tell you all a little story about working at Boardwalk one day. Are you sitting comfortably? Good, then I will begin...

A guest who I met at Kidani Village one day told me she was a flight attendant and that she would be coming back in September and that she would come visit me and bring me some English stuff that I missed. So I was working in Boardwalk one day when this lady, who I didn't recognise, came up to me and said, 'Do you remember me...!?'

So I said, 'Errrrrrr yes, of course.....' '.....'

Then she gave me a bag full of 4, that's right FOUR, big bars of Cadburys! Wooooo! Amazing! She said she went to Kidani first but they told her I was working at the Boardwalk so she went all the way there and walked through all of the shops until she eventually found me, in the last shop! My own piece of Disney Magic!

That's all folks!

Speak soon

Nick :) xxx

...Have a little patience...

A little Walky to the Boardwalk(y)

Sorry about crap quality...but enjoy!
