More Stuff

So Rob and I did the Studios yesterday, and we had a blast. He'd only been there once before, like 12 years ago or something, so it was as good as doing it with someone who'd never been there before. Especially when that someone has never done the Rock 'n' Roller Coaster or Tower of Terror before. Hehehe. THAT was fun. Part of me thinks he only really made it onto Tower of Terror because there was a bouncy little girl in front of us, and he knows I wouldn't let him live it down. But we had a lot of fun wandering the park during the day, and waiting in lines, and laughing at the people who were in line in the rain while we were under the covered part of the queue (not that we didn't get wet at all, it's just that by the time the torrential downpour started we were under cover). And then there was Fantasmic. God, I love that show. I mean, the whole thing is pretty cool, but really I like it when the dragon comes out and the lake is set on fire. We had really good seats, too, considering we got to the amphitheatre at 15 minutes to show time.

Today was yet another day of training, this time right in EPCOT. We did another couple hours of computer training (another set of the most boring videos I've ever seen in my life), and then we got a rundown of some of the stuff more specific to us. The woman who led us through all this was really awesome; she's a permanent server at the pub in the UK Pavilion. Then she grabbed the UK Food&Beverage group and we all had lunch together. ....Oddly enough, the entire set of new arrivals in F&B for the UK are guys. It's really kind of strange to see, especially when our own group is 3 girls and 2 guys. Then we went backstage at the Canada Pavilion to meet one of our managers and go over stuff even MORE specific to us.

Tomorrow is my last day of seminar-type training. We have "Discovery Day," where we tour around the park and stuff, and then we'll get our costumes. After that, we start on-the-job (OTJ) training. Rob and I are starting in the restaurant, while Craig (not Magic Kingdom Craig; arrival group Craig) and Melissa are starting out at the popcorn stand. In about a week and a half, we switch places with them. And I have no idea where Amy's going. Anyway, should be fun. But, I am dead tired, so I think I might go have a nap.
