time is going by! I have had lots of luck lately. I got to do a partial intubation last week. meaning the doctor had the scope and did all the work but i stuck the tube in! We got very lucky in flights because a few weeks ago the price dropped for 84 each way to 49 I haven't seen a price below 59 in a while so i really jumped on that. Finally, i booked a feb weekend trip Feb 2 thru 5th we will be staying at CSR. while i hope and wish i could have a job in my field by then it may not happen but if it does i am able to cancel up to 5 days before to get my money back!!!!i also planned that weekend in case i happen to get interviews during the week. keeping my fingers crossed.

See an annual pass was suppose to be a good thing to offset cost from 2 trips i have and were taking when in fact the AP added a last minute trip this past august and turned into 2 more trips next year. After i informed my mother of my plan she told me, yes told me, she was coming and asked if she should get an AP too and because she will have paid for it after the next 3 trips it would save her money. I know I am addicted and because i have no Disney loving friends everyone thinks im crazy. so glad i found this place. So we are staying at Coronado springs for the 1st time. Im excited to try my 1st moderate resort. i have only stayed at values and the poly. We are going again in may before my AP expires. That trip is not booked because we are waiting for some AP rates and because i am in the process of graduation and hopefully starting a new job a few months later. I cannot pick any dates.
In other school related news, after my shifts this week we only have four weeks left of free labor Im excited but im trying to get as much info as i can before i go and work on my own. Im really nervous about starting NICU next week but i hope it goes well. Then its study, study, study to pass my boards OK sorry for rambling on but i cannot contain my excitement yet nervousness with everything i got on.

Devon's second birthday party looks awesome! I love how they start to understand the idea of parties and gifts by the second birthday. That slide looks like a lot of fun. My boys would love one of those.

Congratulations on booking another trip! Aren't APs the best? I love knowing that I could go to the parks any time I wanted to. At least, any time I wanted to drive ten hours to go to the parks.

[leshunlenese]

I AM DONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! over 400 hours of free labor is complete and the countdown to graduation begins!!!
28 days till graduation!!!
29 days till i board a plane for one night at all star movies followed by 6 nights at jambo house!

I am so freakin happy, excited, yet nervous all at the same time! I cannot contain myself. I still have 2 more class days where we still practice to take our boards but at least I do not have to get up at 5am 3 days a week to go to clinicals and then go to work and class. Now I have time to get into full plan mode. Everything is done except universal tickets and packing. Last dec i was down at disney when it was freezing cold, im hoping that it will not be that cold this time. Well thats all i have for now guys! talk to you soon!!

 

[annmarieda]

Congrats!!!

 

[khertz]

Congrats!!! Boy do I remember that feeling & it's a great one!!

Congrats!!! Boy do I remember that feeling & it's a great one!!

Thank you both! I am beyond excited yet very nervous at the same time because no more holding your hand like clinicals. I got to know what im doing!

 

[leshunlenese]

can someone say 10/11 days?
Yes! we are getting close to a major accomplishment and celebration!
I am very happy. I really hope i am not pushing myself on this trip. I scheduled an 8 am ADR at MK on our check out day and i am starting to realize that we will have to get up extra early to check bags and checked out before going to MK. our flight is not until 5 and i think it would be too much trouble to go to MK and come n back to check out and then go back to ml till its time for magical express. What was i thinking?
Im also worried about our 1st night and day. we arrive on the 8th at 7 pm and we decided to go over to all star movies that 1st night. I planned for us to check out early and leave our luggage to be transferred to AKV while we are at universal. otherwise we would have to go to akv first to check in to access our meal plan and i do not want to waste park time. We shall see how it goes! BTW I hope everyone had a great thanksgiving!!

 

[leshunlenese]

Its almost 10 pm so i don't have to count today do i? NO!
So much to do! I have 6 days till graduation I still have to type this paper and submit it by Monday. Ill do that in the AM while Devyn's at speech therapy and ooo i need shoes. I got a dress, a sweater dress to be exact for graduation but im not a dressy girl. I mean ill where those summer dresses but i usually just where my converse or flip flops with them so what do i wear in the winter. SHOPPING trip! ill squeeze that in when i have to work next week.
7 DAYS! YES 7 till we go to the world. Can u say excited! I still have to pack. Yesterday the weather looked great all day except arrival day. Low 80's and high 70s which for us in Georgia is still winter clothes but without coats. then of course my mom jinks us and says that can change anytime. So today when i check it is all rain and dreary and low 70's. I guess we have to pack every everything including gloves and hats just in case.
oooooo let me catch my breath!


SO everything is on order let me give you some of our plans.
Dec 8 evening flight. check in to all star movies. Snack. sleep.
wake up early check out of ASMo have luggage stored and transferred while we head over to Universal for the day! Come back and check into Jambo house ready for our first disney park.
10th: we will head over to AK.
Must-dos include: EE, KILO SAFARI, FOTLK, meeting thumper and mrs.bunny. I hope to meet some UP characters as i heard the the DISvine they will start meeting there dec 4th. Lunch at flame tree, dinosaur and i really want to see the parade, i have never seen it but only pieces of it. I also hope too santa goofy. Dinner at cape may and i really want some crab legs!
11th: MK
They open at 8 instead of 9 and i plan to be there as such! I love MK so i cannot pick stuff i just want to get as much as i can do cause i want to do everything but realize it will not happen. I really want to me Rapunzel, Tiana, and Ariel, and my love mickey of course but i will save character meetings till the 14th
12th: HS
Two main things because i have never done them is the animation class and meet Phineas and ferb( this is not just for me but for my nephew as well)
I also want to see this parade because i have never seen the pixar pals only the other one. Lunch will be at pizza planet my, ds, and the nephew have been watching toy story 1 all week and my nephew said i want to go to pizza planet and so do i so we will go. And i cannot forget about Osbourne lights as we have never seen that as well! No fantasmic this trip but im ok with that
13th:EPCOT
This is the one place i love AM EMH. we ride all the headliners with minimal wait and also get some fastpasses for soarin for later. At 9 we go to the things that have less of a weight like nemo, captain eo, and universe of energy. unless we go to character connection we will line up about 845 to get the characters out the way. I also have to try sum of all thrills which will probably be my 9am stop. then we can head over to world showcase at 11 finished with future world. I want to pick a pearl lunch at noon at teppan edo. we will most likely go back and pack up our things to go home the next day. then we will be later for dinner at garden grill. last full day
14th MK
up extra early for RAC. leave carry ons and go to CP for 8am ADR
Im thinking i will not do an earl ADR on depature day next time and just relax at the hotel and do a late breakfast or early lunch before getting magical express but we will see how tired i will get. Hope to finish by 9 and get up front to meet rapunzel and do anything we missed the first MK day. Our plane leaves around 5 so we will leave mk around noon to get ME about 2. i think. then its back to the real world and some hard core studying for my board exams.

So that's about it. Im sorry for typing shorthand, spelling and grammar issues and if some things make no sense it all has to do with excitement, joy, love. all the happy stuff!
