In case I haven't already mentioned it (I don't remember if I did, and I'm feeling lazy and don't want to go look at my last post), CP is a Disney Cast Member who is on the college program.
I'm now half way through my training. I'm fully trained for the Flights Of Wonder show in Disney's Animal Kingdom Asia, Caravan Stage(I help seat people and make sure people sit down through the show so that they don't get hit in the head by a flying bird... things like that).
Update about my costume.... I officially know what it looks like!
It's not very exciting, to be honest. It's basically a patterned skirt and a pink blouse. And a plain looking straw hat with a string that I wear on my back in hopes that it'll make it look like more of a costume than a normal outfit. I don't usually wear the hat like I'm supposed to though, cuz I look like a gardener or something.
I have tomorrow and the next day off, then I begin training on the Maharajah Jungle Trek. I have to know a lot of animal facts for that attraction. I'm memorizing facts about komodo dragons, tigers, malayan flying foxes, rodrigues fruit bats, bantengs, eld's deer, blackbucks, blood pythons, and some of the fifty types of birds on the trek. I've found out a lot of things that I didn't know before. Like why bats hang upside down (they have no ankles and can't turn their feet to stand on them), and that in 1979 Cyclone Cecile nearly took out the rodrigues fruit bat population, leaving only seventy of them after the storm.
I don't know what I'm going to do on my days off. I don't have anyone to go to the parks with, and I don't really want to go alone. That's no fun.
I know I'll sleep in. :3 I've been waking up at five the last couple days.
I went to the Magic Kingdom last week. I was invited by a friend I had just recently met. I was a little nervous about only knowing one person, and barely knowing him. But everyone in the group was really fun and we had a blast. I hung out with most of them (the group was kinda big). One girl had the same name as me! She was tons of fun. We sang Disney songs in the park, and even danced a bit. :3
We teamed up with a guy from the group and sang/danced along with a little band singing their version of happy birthday to a guest. Apparently, one of the guest's relatives was recording the band, but began filming us instead when we started dancing.
We were all happy to be a part of that family's memories. That's what cast members are supposed to do- help guests have fun, magical moments that they'll never forget.
I also got to see Cinderella's Castle close up for the first time. It's beautiful. I still haven't seen the Wishes Nighttime Spectacular though. I hope I get to watch that.
I think my favorite rides/attractions in the Magic Kingdom are (in no particular order) Peter Pan's Flight, "it's a small world," The Haunted Mansion, Pirate's of the Caribbean and Stitch's Great Escape. I haven't been on all the attractions in the Magic Kingdom yet though... maybe I'll find some more I really like. And of course, I have to check out the other parks.
That's all for now. I'll write more if anything exciting happens.
Have a magical day!
