Today, we had our practicum presentation .. It was okay, though I did screw up quite a fair bit.

We didn't have the time to go through our practicum answers as a few groups exceeded the time.

For communications, Wei ling and I were on time; Wan Ping was off time; and Cheryl took too long .. So sianz ..

Cheryl said that Scott noticed that our "twins" had changed their clothes .. Hahaha .. Cute joke, will share in future ..

Chris today presented first, because .. he was to star in the "Night of Stars" ..

It was a cute song that he self composed ..

So much later, after class, we changed and went to ... the Treehouse Villas - ie Wan Ping and Wei Ling's apartment .. Went with Penny and Piriya .. It was Penny's first time there ..

After they changed too, we took a bus to Downtown Disney .. Nearly missed the bus .. Hahaha .. Luckily, the bus driver was kind hearted enough to let us on ..

Hmmm .. After reaching there, Penny decided to accompany Piriya back as they both were too sleepy, especially after doing their powerpoint slides and reheasing for their practicum presentation that morning. It was a real funny scene .. Penny and Piriya said they would be going on; so Wei Ling, Wan Ping and myself waved bye; while Cheryl had got off the bus. Once we met her, she asked where the other two were, we said they went home instead. She was slightly shocked .. Haha ..

I have no idea why but we went to .. Club Motion .. to .. see .. NIGHT OF STARS .. To support Chris .. Cause we didn't know anyone else ..

Personally, I didn't like it, because they increased the volume too tooo high, so whenever the singers hit too high a note, or too many singers through mikes, it was terrible blasting ..

They had a real, really, super cool host .. Quite a old lady whose name was Bambi .. She thoroughly entertained us through the whole session .. She had the funniest comments and was able to transit through the songs without making us feel they were rushing .. For example, she was asked what the Spanish guy was singing, she remarked, oh he was singing, "Bambi, Bambi, I love you .." And she composed the whole love song based on herself .. Hahaha .. She made the crowd cheer by emphasizing on different workplaces or housing ..

The winner wasn't as Cheryl and I expected .. Especially since the top 2 positions were off key; especially the winner .. Really BOOOO !!!

Though the tune deaf crowd cheered .. Sigh ..

Only our Chris was the deserving winner .. He won 3rd place .. Hahaha ..

After the show, we quickily left before getting stampeded on and whatsoever .. We decided to proceed with our initial plan of watching a movie .. So, we went to our 24 AMC Theatres and booked our tickets .. It was to be at 2150; when it was 2100 ..

We went to McDonald's and eat but they provided so lousy service and the food portions were ever so small .. So, I asked them, HOW CAN PEOPLE BE OVERWEIGHT BY EATING SUCH SMALL PORTIONS ?!

It was overpriced and underportions .. Sighh .. The service was bad too ..

Deciding to stick on with the plan, we rushed over to the movies, reaching there barely on time .. Oh, in this theatre, there is no fixed seating, so first come first serve .. Plus the distance between each level was big, and no one tall was in front of me, so I quite liked the theatre .. Normally, in Singapore, I really hope that sitting in front of me is a kid .. Sighh ..

We watched .. Santa Clause 3 ~~ Though I really am forgetting the first two Clauses .. It was quite cute, especially all their NGs!! Hahaha !! It is quite good lah, but if you just need the plot, it won't be worth it .. Oh, because we were cast members, it was $6 for a ticket ..

Oh, before the show, there was a catching line, "Please do not add your own soundtrack to the movie." Isn't that line cute? I remembered to switch off my handphone ..

After the movie, we went into a freezing Virgin store to look at don't-know-what, then we took the W bus and C bus home ..

Surprise, surprise, Penny and the gals might have packed the living room, leaving a trail of hair from the kitchen to the bathroom ..

OHHHHH .. Bad news, the toilet is clogged for the 4/5th time this month .. I did it .. Hahaha .. But the problem is .. I only peed .. But I on-ed the tap when the water level increased .. But it still overflowed .. Oh crap ..

Hidayah isn't that happy about us using her toilet, especially since someone solidified and did not flush it .. I feel she has been giving us a fair bit of attitude problems ..

Last but not least, NO MONEY TO BUY ALP'S PRESENT ~! So, let's hope I'll have money soon .. Hahahaha .. Any special requests? Anything from EPCOT: Japan ?? Hahaha ..

There was a small fire last night in one of the wiring systems. But was spotted by him and James before anything with flames appeared.

Wow again right .. Haha ..

I was breaker, and luckily due to many changes in shifts, I did not have to break the stocker ..

Something crazy came to me when I was going home. I took the guest bus to Downtown Disney instead of my A bus. I then transferred to the F bus to go home. I was earlier and managed to have the time to go to the latrine on time ~!

In short, an okay day ..

Went to Wendy's for lunch with Cheryl.

Saw Je'sus there .. He said he might quit the college program; although I don't know why .. There's like around 5 weeks; 4 weeks more to graduation (for him).

Oh well ~~

So, I complained to Dan over the trip to work; then, reached work; realized I was to start work at 1500 instead .. So, got Darrin to change my time .. I worked as cashier; supposed to be busser .. hahaha .. =)

was spent accompanying Penny to the doctor's ..

It was about a 5 minute drive away; and about a few hours wait.

Somehow, their tests tend to be more thorough,therefore leading to a longer wait for patients and a heftier fee to pay ~~

After Penny returned, she dashed off to work; while I went to have my lunch at 1600
-.- So, I took the 1702 bus to MGM to see the dancing lights .. Will upload pictures one day ~~ Hahaha ..

After about a while, I got tired and bored; so I bade Cheryl goodbye and headed home ..

I came home to find .. Penny !! She said she got sent to Epcot medical to vertify her doctor's note, afterwhich, she was certified not healthy enough to work. So, she got the next few days off without getting any demerit points .. So, she was happy; and finally she gets her rest ..

Not being a motherly figure, she only went to get her medicine at night when Piriya started nagging at her. She had sent her time watching youtube on her laptop since the time she came home .. Hahaha ..

I'm 3/4 awake, surviving on Oxygen shared with my room mate now.

It was an interesting day today.

After work yesterday at 0000, reaching home by 1245, I stayed up all night, and took a bathe at 4AM to go for a 14-hour shopping spree.

Tireded? Indeed, I fell asleep on the benches waiting for the girls (Geraldine, Lee Min and Cheryl) twice. Lee Min fell asleep at the shop itself unknowingly coming to the end of the day ..

We had a super fulfilling shopping trip. Personally, I spent $125; owing Lee Min $50, and Cheryl $24 (See, I put in the money from lunch at AK!!) And using my POSB Mastercard for the jackets, since they cost $70.

I bought: perfume - smells like the girl-girl type, a hat, lip gloss, make up remover, a jacket and a short pants for use when I return home. Da dang ~! Money spent.

We were looking for stuff at 0507 -.- when we arrived with Iris, her friends Alex and Dale. And after combing through the shops that were opened at that time, we slowly started shopping .. Saw the other girls at Apple ..

To cut at 14-hour shopping trip short, we had dinner at 16+- hours enjoying a New Orleans Seafood something with horrible tasting rice (of course, Cheryl and I skipped it), and Chicken something with lots of mashed potato (which I didn't eat much) .. They had salads while I just feasted on the scraps of the entrees ..

Shopping trip description would really be fun. Nothing beats going out with a bunch of crazy girls who feel absolutely comfortable with talking to each other (good or bad), who love each other, and know each other's tastes .. Not including, be willing to spend heaps of money, and help each other carry bags ..

This marked the end of the shopping trip with an estimate of 7 bags from all of us ..

Yeahh .. It wasn't as busy as expected; mainly because Kona was serving authetic turkey, when we only have turkey clubs (ie turkey ham) .. Hahaha .. It's a joke I cracked ok !!

So, luckily for me, I was busser; I just needed to clean tables, sweep floors, talk to guests, clear trash and the weather wasn't as cold ..

There was also free turkey meat since Kona had purchased 2000 turkeys =) More than enough to feed both guests and cast members :)

Today, I felt happy; because I felt my guests snubbed the manager I didn't particularly like .. Why so? Because there was this kid (teenager), who walked into the shop and was looking around, so she said "hi" and suddenly when I appeared he smiled and said "Hi Donna" Hahahahaahaha .. See ~! The impact of me working as cashier for 8 hours ..

I must be so very the chio ~! Hahahaha ..

Ok, updated: I went with Geraldine to try and get lunch this morning, but failed due to the closure of both Wendy's and Chick-Fill-A, no thanks to Thanksgiving .. So, went to Yiwen's house, and really feel like out of place there .. Thanksgiving Day, I am grateful that I'm living with a clean freak who obviously suits my lifestyle alot. She only makes me pack when I am free .. Thanksgiving to a happier day .. Thanksgiving to two days off in a row .. Really thanks to my Abba Father for supporting me all the way ~! And for making me all so the very chio ~!

Thanks to Mike today, for sending me home and for getting me a turkey meal from Kona Cafe ~! Hahaha ..

Much better today, mainly because .. I was cashiering; I did excellent service; I got tipped $5.14; didn't have to suffer ..

Plus, I was working with Iris .. Great fun with her around ..

To all whom are asking me how I am, I am not fine. For the first time, since coming to Orlando, FL, I certainly am not enjoying myself. Yesterday, I had three things to be happy about, but certainly not today. “Today”, I was in pure suffering. The reason why I choose to inform you, regardless of who you are, is because I truly believe that you are concerned over my well being. Whether real action will be taken later, I have no idea. I do hope though that some authority could tell my manager/s to realign my job scope.

Let me start with a bit of history about my job. I work at Captain Cooks. It was under rehab and while it was being decorated, Captain Cooks operated under a location called Tangaroa Terrace. Far away from the main building, we seldom had many guests being able to locate the area. In addition, when I arrived, it was in the months of September, when school had started, and there were certainly much less people. Not forgetting the hot and sunny Florida’s weather beating on everyone, September through October wasn’t that very popular with guests.

Soon, every manager got excited, as the renovations were almost complete. They remarked that it was bigger than the previous Captain Cooks at that location was. But certainly, I realized after being in there that they did not take a few issues into consideration. So, on November 20 2006, Captain Cooks relocated back into the main building. We were badly hit by the sudden rush of guests who had come in for Thanksgiving (the busiest day of the park). We were hit because we are the only quick service food and beverage location in the Polynesian Resort. Hit again because it was a big hoo-ha to all the managers everywhere.

But, is it really such a marvelous and wonderful place? Seriously, I have yet to find one co-worker who loves that place. For all the College Program students, we so love our old Captain Cooks at Tangaroa Terrace. For all the cast members who originally were at the old Captain Cooks at the main building, they love our Tangaroa Terrace too.

According to what I study about how Disney conducts its business, it looks at three factors: Guest Satisfaction, Cast Member Excellence and Business Results before making a decision. Let’s analyze our new Captain Cooks. Indeed, it raises Guest Satisfaction, I never had someone complain about walking more, I never had someone complain about waiting for food, I never had someone complain about not having enough Cast Members to greet them. Business results are evident as the breaker (the person giving the various cast members breaks) earned at least $900 in cash at the end of the day. It is so nice and sweet to our guest and business results. In the contrary, cast member excellence is a zero. Zero means nothing has been going well for most of the cast members working in the location.

Let me elaborate on why I say there has been zero things going well. We stepped into Captain Cooks when it was 90% complete, and we commented lots of things, which could not be helped by that time. All the following are personal feelings, and may differ from person to person.

Firstly, there are too many greeters and not enough people actually running the flow of the business. Picture Mike (the cast member who designed the new Guest Operating Terminals), Ellen (the line manager for food and beverage), Mandy (the executive manager for food and beverage) – at times, three managers, and an official greeter (cast member of Captain Cooks); all saying “aloha” to guests and showing them through the system.

Now see, there are two cashiers. There are at least two ambassadors who clean tables and clear trays. There is one expeditor who arranges the food and hands them to the guest. There is one stocker who stocks the walk-in cooler which is a freezer, and takes the stock far away in the main stockroom, shared by all the food and beverage team. We should have one breaker too. Basically, that should be our cast member line up for the day.

So, after the food has been cooked, the expeditor places chips onto the food, arranges which food goes on which order, pages for the guests to collect their food, hands them their food, and collects the pager that was used to page the guest. Is that a lot of roles? It surely is. And because of some chef telling my manager I was slow, I have been “forbidden” to touch that area again, which I am glad not to expedite food.

The second day of Captain Cooks, I was assigned to stocking our walk-in cooler. That I have lots of complaints on. Firstly, because it is vividly etched into my mind, secondly because I cried over this job scope, thirdly, I kept getting mixed signals throughout my 8 hours of working there.

I would like to begin this topic with a little background about myself and the building itself so that you can fully understand my complaints. I come from a country called Singapore. Singapore is a small island in Southeast Asia whose temperature as of today is highest 87 and lowest 77 degrees F. In Singapore, we normally have a temperature of 80-90 throughout the year and it rarely even dips beyond 85, I feel. I am 4' - 11 1/10" tall, and of small build in the USA. I can barely see beyond the third highest guest shelf. I can barely touch the highest stocking shelf. I am not a strong female by nature, yet I was forced to carry 24 cans of full throttle.

The cooler I am going to elaborate on is as big as the walk-in cooler of the actual guest cooler. Although less than half belongs to the stocking area, as culinary cast members have their own food to stock and it takes up more than half of the area. The cooler’s temperature is constantly 40 or sometimes it dips to 36 degrees F. It is very tall and it is slanted so that the drinks can roll down to the guests. It also is a regulation that we are not allowed to wear our jackets in, because Mandy says that it is an outdoors jacket. However, due to the fact that I am unwilling to head a 30 minute walk to the new Captain Cooks, I have yet to borrow a turtleneck, though I have gloves.

I never had any problems at all stocking in the Tangora location. Why? Because all the stock were in the building itself. It was heavy, and I asked the chefs, I asked anyone around whether they could help me when I could manage the weight. I am unable to carry 24 bottles of 24oz Dasani without help.

Enough of background, let me now elaborate on everything that went wrong. Firstly, there was no stocker on the previous day, it therefore leads to the fact that I or Brennan whom I changed positions with, was the first stocker of the new location. Everything was in a mess, and there was literally no stock. Whatever I could do was to fill the coolers with every resource I had; whatever resource I placed out was grabbed by the guests. I had to go to the main stocking room, with some scrap paper writing of what I needed. I was given a cart that was noisy and hard to move, it was also extremely cold to touch except I had my gloves’ protection.

Literally, I spent my night bringing stuff down and filling up coolers. Due to the fact that I was unable to ascertain how much stock was needed, as I do not have place to fit too much stuff I never brought excess stock. Due to the fact that I am a weak and vertically challenged female, I found it hard to leave things off the tall shelves. Due to the fact that I only knew where the store rooms were and had no idea where the actual products was, I had to do a trip down myself and make lots of mistakes. Due to the fact that the cooler storeroom was so messy and there was no walking space, and every door crashed into me, I suffered much pain. Due to the fact that I still wasn’t fast enough, I had no training in the Captain Cooks here, my manager scolded me. Due to the fact that I knew very well that I was not to leave till 1.30 A.M., I stocked my cooler before doing my order sheet for the night. Due to the fact that I chose to be meticulous to locate items to analyze whether to stock or not, I got scolded by my manager again that most of the items were not short. Due to the fact that I was asked to do an order sheet and not be meticulous about it, I was really upset. At the end of the day, my manager said that I was too short and weak to be stocker, that really dampened my mood. I am not talking about being discriminated. I feel I am too short and weak to be stocker; but the question that kept ringing in my head was, “then why did you ask me to be stocker?”

I was really very angry at the fact that no one recognized that I was afraid of the cold stock room, no one recognized that I had to carry stuff into the cooler that is opened by getting the door open, and being fast enough to carry in.

I was scolded for not stocking fast enough when I had no experience, the worse experience that I broke down in the toilet was due to the fact that my hair was messy, due to my busy nature, I was not allowed to rest. I have no idea whether Ellen knew whether I came from a hot climate and being in that cooler was no joke. I have no idea whether Ellen knows how much Oxygen is being depleted just by staying awake and not fainting inside. I have no idea whether any of the managers actually care.

I repeat, I was and I still am upset. At the end of my stocking session, I was really too tired, especially after completing 11 hour and 10 hour shifts the previous days and only have half an hour shifts given to me. I am paid $6.90 for an hour, so I would be given $10.35 in return for hard, hard work over three days.

At the end of the day, I requested to my manager who was on the floor that I leave at 1.30 A.M. Firstly, because I am only paid till that time, secondly I am tired, thirdly, last night, the long walk, to the Ticketing and Transportation Center where I take a bus A back home, caused me to miss my bus and I reached home thanks to Disney Security.

I had no wish to take a nice break. But suddenly, I miss having a free access to a water supply. Water as in plain, filtered water. Many people feel that having fountain drinks are good for cast members as they can drink many flavors. But seriously, having a drink station outside reach of cast, means that they can only drink water based on managers’ approval. I need a place to rest my feet, and that place unlike the break room behind Tangaroa, has to be reached by walking in the COLD, noting that we are not allowed jackets, through the backstage, into stage to get into our canteen. For every time, we leave our positions, we keep having to endure the COLD. Personally, I find 75 degrees cold already, what more 40 degrees without a jacket to go for break. Another things I am really upset over is the missing of breaks. I do not see any system error following our old system of having an hour to a break. Now with divided breaks, very few people actually are entitled to their second break. I am one of them.

In short, just two days in the new location, I am super upset. I am giving this fresh day a new start. I am working at 2.30 P.M., which means that I should be cashering or greeting people. That is what I really am looking forward to. I spoke to one of my managers before about placing me on register, he was not very interested in understanding why I loved being cashier. The only reason why I love cashiering is: I AM NOT CHALLENGED VERTICALLY OR PHYSICALLY WHEN CASHIERING. That is an extremely important point, especially when you are vertically challenged and weaker than all your colleagues.

I am tired of working. This is my seventh day working in a row. After my ninth day, I shall finally be given an off day. I really hope this letter/email will not extent any longer. I really hope I will love this place, at least for the next 50 days more.

To why Brennan and I changed position with was a real sick joke. Because of whatever the chefs told my manager, she totally decided against ever placing me on the floor of expediting, she wanted our expeditor on the floor to bus tables for the apparent reason that she was more experienced but yet was unwilling to send me to expedite food. Therefore, she took the stocker to expedite food, took the expeditor to bus tables and the ambassador (busser) to be the stocker. Brennan apologized sweetly to me at the end of the day, after I complained to him about my role, which he could not stand after 1.5 hours of which he stood less than half an hour in the cooler.

Let me conclude, I am terribly busy in my current job, out of 7 job roles, I doubt I can take either expediting or stocking. I am seriously upset about returning to work, shortly. I am seriously hoping someone can take action.

With much love,

Donna Lim

is the worst job ever.

Cast members feeling sad ..

Bye bye break room

Bye bye tv

Bye bye crowdless days

Bye bye room service friends

Bye bye free time

Bye bye balloon time

Was expeditor today. Terrible.

Today worked from 1630-0100 .. Brennan sent me home .. Addie fell asleep at the back of the car ..

Today, our bottom two shelves were all empty .. Means no cupcakes, apple pie, brownies and cookies ..

Today was super super busy and AJ worked for 14 hours on the register, I saw Iris having 900 in cash !! After one full long day ..

Talk about tired.

Tired day. Real weary of working.

Can't see my future working .......... for the rest of my life ............

Today we ran out of chocolate cupcakes and brownies .. Hahahaha ..

Today was the longest shifts for most people, I was struck with a 11-hour shift from 1300 to 0000, Brennan had a 16 hour shift; James worked the night before from 2300-1400 .. That sort of thing .. My managers also said that most people are working doubles these few days due to the opening of our new location ..

I was breaker today, and I only had a 30 minute break out of the 11 hours I worked today ..

Lastly, I woke up at 1155, left the house at 1215 and clocked in at 1245 ..

Whahaha .. Why is it that I always remember what bakery item runs out fastest??

Oh well .. I was breaker ..

Being breaker, I had the latest break; and during my break, there was an electrical short circuit .. So, the whole Captain Cooks was in darkness .. It was rather cool to see everyone shocked and worried ..

Hahaha .. That's all ~

I really wanted to wear my Anniversary tag .. Because it looked so cute .. Cheryl got it for me on her birthday .. If only the guy gave us a few more sets for everyone ..

I was breaker, and Iris and I called a few numbers to hear Mickey and Minnie wish me Happy Anniversary .. Too bad, they didn't have nice sounding laughters ..

So, rather happy today .. Plus Ivan has been on MC since Tuesday .. Let's hope he's much okay throughout this weekend ..

Happy Anniversary, Ivan Ee ~

Next Tuesday we don't have class .. The busy thanksgiving week ..

Today class was okay .. The TOT guy, Chris, didn't come to class :(

I think Scott really likes me .. Hahaha .. Especially since his wife and I share the same name ..

Since we were so tired, Cheryl and I had a deep long sleep and I woke up from my beautiful dream from a spasm .. Oh well ..

Went with Cheryl out to eat at Benighams .. Finally .. Hahaha ..

Wasn't a very pleasant evening, but Cheryl made it all right again .. Cheers to her =)

at all

It's Cheryl's birthday ..

We had a little celebration the day before ..

I decorated our room; whereas Geraldine hid her presents ..

Afterwhich, I went to MGM Studios to find her; then we collected badges .. Then, I lost my sunglasses =(

Waited for Hidayah to come before we watched Beauty and the Beast and Fantasmic ..

Then, we headed to Downtown Disney via the French Quarter bus ..

After some window shopping on a cold, cold day, we went into Pleasure Island but the upper floor wasn't opened, so we lost our mood ..

Geraldine was late, so mood lost again ..

Hps' batteries ran dry, moodless ..

But luckily, Geraldine's appearance really made our day .. And so, we took photos at the arcade .. Then, headed home via cab ..

Luckily for us, Cheryl's mood was still perked up by having to locate her five treasures ..

Really, sincerely, wished she had a happy birthday .. And hope to laugh at her next year when she gets flooded with messages, welcoming her to the big "2" ..

Cheryl, if you are reading this, apologies for the white lie about where Geraldine and I were in the morning .. Haha .. And now (so late liao) hope that you will be happy throughout every day of your life .. Stay cute and lovable .. May God bless you with a good man in your life .. Hahahaha .. So many things to talk about you, thanks for being and bearing with me throughout these few months and years if you are talking about our previous relationship of classmates ..

Yeahh .. Today I bought something for Ivan again .. He's so going to love it !! Hahaha .. I bet he will love it alot alot ..

Then, I was sent to Cape May Cafe ..

Donned a "sailor" uniform; however Cheryl slept before I could show it to her ..

Was very boring .. I was a seater, means when they is available seats, to show the guests to their tables .. That's all .. But since it was a table service and it was a buffet, naturally it was a long line and we, the seaters, had nothing to do but to wait ..

I worked 6 hours and did not get my 15 minutes break, I'll claim it from Darrin .. Sadly, I hated my food ..

Okay, the main problems about Yacht and Beach .. The people aren't friendly, out of the 20 over cast members I met, only 1 said "hi" to me. They did not keep any taste panel for me. They did not ask me where I came from, or how long I would be here .. The Cast Members do not really trust their managers, and they get weird shifts .. Basically, not that okay ..

I got back earlier than usual, because after I reached the bus stop, there was a girl who asked the people (3 of us) whether any of us lived at Chatham for she was driving home. Noting that it was a girl, she felt sincere, and that one of my co-workers grabbed the ride without knowing her, I decided to trust my heart and follow along, informing them I actually lived at Vista Way instead ..

So, my heart made me earlier by a little bit, but this really beats the time feeling upset on a bus .. I don't know, I left at 2230, reached home at 2315, even if there was a car ride .. If I took the G bus, I would reach Carribean beach at 2300. Then reach home at 2332 .. Oh well ..

Anyways, now just made myself some herbal tea, which I stole from Cheryl .. I hope I don't fall sick anytime soon .. At least fall sick when I reach home - where my love ones will take care of me ..

Cashiering ..

I'm always glad to be at register ..

We didn't run out of cupcakes .. For we had a whole large tray of them ..

However, I accidentally took too much money from a guest, and made my $400 into $399.50; therefore, I think I screwed up quite a fair bit ..

Finally worked 8.5 hours again .. So happy :D

Today, James was complaining, again, about the bus, so I told him to just use my name and complain, hopefully it would be more effective then ..

Tuesday - class day ..

Showed Corrie our minimal work on SIA .. And submitted my assignment to Scott ..

Today, we (Cheryl, Wei Ling and myself) went to Geraldine's house and took the Chinese food menu with us, which caused some unhappiness in the rest of the house who apparently had no communication access either by handphone (Cheryl, Geraldine), or house phone (Geraldine) .. Then, I heard they got unhappy, that seriously I find unreasonable ..

Okay, for jokes, last night, Brennan and Addie came to collect his PS, and I was in shock as I realised our carpet was "floating" in the air .. Apparently, after sending them off, I realised that someone had used Hidayah's toilet, and after finishing business, the toilet slowly flooded ..

Cheryl description of it is cuter: She/they realised that the kitchen was flooding, so they wiped it dry .. And to their shock, they saw the carpet floating .. That's when they called Price Management: the people in-charge if anything was wrong with our housing experiences .. They quickly off the "tap" to the toilet bowl. So, one person came, looked at the extent of the damage. He radio-ed another, who came, looked, radio-ed .. The third person came with all the equipment, and they were "air-drying" the carpet ..





Hahaha .. Interesting how they "blow" dry our carpet right ..

So, Hidayah had to sleep with Cheryl last night ..

Back to today, after class, it was POURING .. First time in America that it actually rains, it POURS :(

So, we still went over to the Polynesian, Grand Floridian and Contemporary as planned .. They were all very nice .. But I like the Grand Floridian's theme, but the Cast Members there not very friendly ..

But they had this cute Gingerbread house .. The pictures will be uploaded shortly in Grand Floridian Resort ..

We missed the fireworks as we thought it started at 9 as usual, but sadly it was at 8 !!! So we caught the last part only .. Romantic beach walk with two other females .. Oh, crap, forgot to mention that the we includes Cheryl AND her colleague, Xinyi from Beijing, China. Whatever, so three of us with the "beach" and the sand and warm food from Captain Cooks !!

We returned after a long day and Xinyi retrieved her laptop from our room; Cheryl sent her to the bus stop; Cheryl took the garbage out; Geraldine called; they met outside; I washed my socks; she washed her bedroom slippers; she blew dry them; Hidayah came back from her snack trip; they slept while I tried to finish updating my blog.

That's all ..

Refer to topic .. Hahaha .. Today we were out of cupcakes ..

I was off again .. And so was Geraldine .. So, we went shopping at the Premium outlet and I got myself one bra ..

Will try to update more ..

I watched Desperate Housewives at Geraldine's house and caught Brothers and Sisters ..

It's called the mid day shift and it means we have no scheduled job or break time .. Jeff gave Christina ER (early release) and I took over her as busser ..

I only had my break much much later in the day ..

Today, Chad cooked chicken with orange sauce and a lot of crap, broccoli and potatoes .. We had them for taste panel .. Cheryl and I, mostly Cheryl, cooked fried rice today .. I only cut the ham and threw in the broccoli ..

Then, Ivan was talking to me today, I think, hmmm .. I remember showing him my rice .. Means that either today or yesterday that Si Ming and Piriya thought I had a talking computer ..

Then, after my work, I went down to the Yacht and Beach Resort where I was scheduled to work on Thursday .. It was a crazy experience even reaching there ..

I had changed and clocked out by 1930 and left Captain Cooks after saying bye to G-nelly .. Then, I walked to the TTC where I took a monorail to Epcot and was thinking of talking a bus over to the resort .. However, they did not have a bus service and I was asked to take the bus to MGM Studios (where Cheryl works) and ask the driver to drop me off there .. However, the bus driver, stubbornly, did not do so ..

Instead she told me to take a boat, which had left the dock as I was approaching it .. It was to be the last boat -.- So I walked a mile with a couple with 3 kids to the Yacht and Beach Resort ..

I walked around and took many shots .. It was a terror coming home though .. I took a weird small bus with people all complaining about their work and the hours they put in .. I got so tired that when I saw bus E, I boarded it and fell asleep ..

I felt as though God had hinted to me not to wait for Cheryl (who normally takes that bus, and was to end work at 2200; it was 2200 when I boarded the bus .. So, I ignored it .. And, when I reached home, I saw Cheryl looking at me .. So, good .. :D

What a weird experience, will upload photos another day ..

It's called the mid day shift and it means we have no scheduled job or break time .. Jeff gave Christina ER (early release) and I took over her as busser ..

I only had my break much much later in the day ..

Today, Chad cooked chicken with orange sauce and a lot of crap, broccoli and potatoes .. We had them for taste panel .. Cheryl and I, mostly Cheryl, cooked fried rice today .. I only cut the ham and threw in the broccoli ..

Then, Ivan was talking to me today, I think, hmmm .. I remember showing him my rice .. Means that either today or yesterday that Si Ming and Piriya thought I had a talking computer ..

Then, after my work, I went down to the Yacht and Beach Resort where I was scheduled to work on Thursday .. It was a crazy experience even reaching there ..

I had changed and clocked out by 1930 and left Captain Cooks after saying bye to G-nelly .. Then, I walked to the TTC where I took a monorail to Epcot and was thinking of talking a bus over to the resort .. However, they did not have a bus service and I was asked to take the bus to MGM Studios (where Cheryl works) and ask the driver to drop me off there .. However, the bus driver, stubbornly, did not do so ..

Worked as Busser and did my Chef of the Day on an adult. Whitney. She was with her husband though.. Hahaha .. Wonder why I still remember her name ..

Supposedly cultural day as on my organiser .. Weird japanese .. :p

I had changed shifts with James, however, his cell did not receive SMS, so he didn't know about it until the managers called him. So, he started work at 1730 instead .. But we didn't get into trouble.

Bought a lot of things.

So far so good, except that there isn't a bus to Wal Mart today and I'm going to get scolded by Cheryl if I don't start doing my homework. But I wanna pack my room first :D

Meanwhile, please note, NEW PHOTOS UPLOADED !!! Polynesian photos, MK2 photos, Random, Downtown Disney and Epcot ~~ Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween, not yet though .. Sneak preview here ..








Today I went to MGM Studios and wiped a tear while watching Beauty and the Beast .. How I miss my Beast .. Hahaha ..
