Graduationnnn!! :) ..Disney Style!

So apparently I just graduated. Wohoooooo!

I'm almost certain as well that this will be the only time I will graduate wearing mickey ears, on a beach, in 30C.

Maybe it will be the best graduation ever? Who knows, all I know is that we were warmly greeted by the housing/college program team at Mickey's Retreat, collected our certificates and mickey ears, played a few games, won a few prizes, took some photos with characters, ate some free food, took some more photos, danced to the cupid shuffle and then threw our ears in the air! It was a lot of fun!

I think its a bit soon/I'm not really in the mood to do a whole run down of the program as that could take days and days but all I'm going to say is Best. Year. Ever.

Love you

Nick 'is now a Disney graduate' xx

1 year since the interview!!!

Whoooooaa so I just realised today (30th March 2010) is 1 year since the interview!! How crazy! Anyway just had to say that. I can't believe what an amazing experience this has been, it's felt like I have lived a whole life in one year.

Anyhoo just had to say that and now I'm going to go back to trying to update this darn thing...here are a couple of piccys of costumes I've had to wear. Have a good ol' laugh.

...many photos and memories to come...

Lots of loveee

Skydiving 22 December 2009...Wow

Woooo so we actually did it---Skydived from 15,000 feet!

Here are some pictures and then the video that they gave to us at the end. It was such a thrill, I really can't explain the feeling of when they open the small plastic door and you shift towards it, carefully placing your feet right on the edge of the step ready to jump out. I could only look down at the ground and try to take it all in. The instructor tells you to lean back and forth 3 times then you 'fall' out. My mind just went blank! I was holding onto the side of the door with the wind rushing all around me, then I heard 'go' and the next part I was falling from a plane and heading 126mph towards the ground! I will never forget it and definitely recommend it!

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
