I bought a Davy Jones pin that says just that.
That's sort of how I view this program. That I'm in too deep to really get out and that quitting will cause more harm than good. Preach it, Davy Jones, you be-tentacled captain, you!
The past two days have been rest and recoup days. My first break day, after another grueling, four hour class with Obi Wan (I think his real name is Scott-- the world will never know!), Megan and a group of us went to Downtown Disney to eat and watch Alice in Wonderland. Her excitement rang true in the memory of that outing-- I'd forgotten what it was like to wear real clothes, to get just a little dolled up to go hang out with friends. I've become so used to my lovely monkey suit, which admittedly, is cute, but... how can a girl forget what it's like to wear jeans and a cute tee? As Megan says, it's heinous. The weight of my massive hoop earrings were especially foreign. My hair down? Preposterous! But it happened.
It was raining, naturally, and the bus was late - again, naturally - but that didn't stop us from having fun. Four of us went to eat at T-rex (which has a ridiculous wait time of nearly 45 minutes), so we blew that popsicle stand and went to Planet Hollywood instead. VIP seating, anyone? It was packed. It honestly felt more like a club than a restaurant, and had the seating been missing, it definitely would have been. We ate faster than fire before zipping out to meet our fifth friend at the movies just across the way.
I did not think I was going to like Alice in Wonderland a bit. Considering my abhorrence for anything Tim Burton touches (okay, not so much abhorrence as my incredible eye-rolling towards his overrated-ness), I went in with low expectations... but this movie wasn't saturated in the depressing overtones that his movies are usually awash in, which was a definite change. A NICE change, in fact. I think this movie had the most light I'd seen since Edward Scissorhands! Anyway, I was won over by the White Rabbit and the Cheshire Cat... of course. The latter bore a remarkable resemblance to my favorite stuffed animal, Shugerpuff. Plus, kitties!
I recommend it-- that it should at least be seen when it comes out on DVD, if not in theatres. It was a lot of fun to watch. Plus, stories that involve going back to where one began are always a favorite for me. They never fail!
Yesterday was a bit of a nightmare. Since Megan and I took the day off our first break day, we had errands galore to get through the next. While she had to run to her costuming building at Animal Kingdom, I had to ready my Wal-Mart list and solve my checking card problems. Our goal was to hit up Casting Connections (which has Disney stuff for cheap and is where I got my Davy Jones pin), the UPS store, and Wally World. Doesn't sound like much, but believe me... we didn't get back 'til maybe 8 or so o'clock. Blame traffic and misdirection. Haroo!
