Who Gets To Do This Stuff :)

* My Disney World Adventure... 4 months of everything but work :)

     ...I played in the tunnels underneath Magic Kingdom
     ...and marched in costume in the Mulan parade!
       ...I spent three fun filled hours on the streets of MGM taking pictures of magical moments, and giving them out to families!
     ...I spent an evening volunteering at an Enchanted Village that housed children from Disney's version of "Make A Wish".  That night was filled with so much magic, love, tears, and just the most beautiful memories!
     ...I got to ride on the Tower of Terror in the middle of the night, when all the guests were gone.  We walked through that haunted castle and they offered to let me ride alone in my very own elevator!!!  I passed
     ...Mom, Judy and I stayed at the Disney Institue and they spent their days exploring while I worked.  It was an amazing week filled with breakfast buffets with Mickey and his friends, hotel hopping, lounging in hammocks, late nights on Pleasure Island, .... and ultimately, Judy getting lost on a boat and us missing our flight home!  There was no flight till morning and we were already checked out of the hotel, so we slept on the chairs by the pool!!!  Homeless in Disney World... an amazing adventure!
     ...I signed up for a commercial/marketing campaign for a new ride an Animal Kingdom.  We showed up (about 100 cast members) at 4am and rode the Kali River Rapids ride over and over for about 4 hours while they filmed and photographed us!  It was amazing, and very wet!
    ...I was pulled onstage at a comedy club, and was used as a prop in an improv game.  The scene got a little raunchy, and my face got a little red  :)
    ...At the Adventurer's Club, I was tackled by a French Maid, handcuffed by a sheriff, and completely confused when my barstool kept lowering all by itself!   So much fun  :)
    ...I danced on a revolving floor with cages, strobe lights, and pulsating music.  I watched the people dance the night away at an 80's themed club with old guys constantly trying to pull me onto the dance floor  :)   I made friends at the BET club, and they attempted to prove everyone has rythym.  They were wrong!
    ... Fireworks!!!  On most every night I was in the magical land of Disney, I watched 3 completely amazing firework shows.  If I was working, it all started with my show..Fantasmic!  This beautiful and exciting show culminates with Mickey popping out of a huge mountain, and fireworks lighting up the sky!  It is musical/lightshow that is unmatched!  While the 10,000 plus guests are leaving our show, the Epcot fireworks begin.  I spent each night helping guests find their way out, while listening to them oohh and ahhh and all the bright explosions!  It was amazing!  And on most nights, I left from work and made it to Pleasure Island by 11:30pm.... just in time for the Countdown!  You see, on Pleasure Island, every night is New Year's Eve!  Theirs a 30 minute countdown, where everyone packs the West Side of the Island (imagine NYC crowds where you can't move) and the music blasts out from all around you.  Dancers perform stunts, and blacklight trickery.  They get everyone screaming, and dancing along.  Then, as you reach that final minute, the New Year's countdown explodes!  People scream, fireworks errupt in the sky, and confetti covers the island!!!  It is beautiful, and I got to do this almost every single night!!!
