Top 10s

a week with my sis and a mouse:

for christmas my sister Heather got a certificate saying she gets a week with me and a mouse..Mickey Mouse that is - Heather got to come spend a week with me because my mom and dad went on a Cruise - Heather and i both got year passes to WDW :) so we made the most of our week and spent so much time there!

florida is being very good to me-

things are still going well- Florida is being very good to me-

Trevor and i moved into our 2 bedroom apt nov 1st. and things are going just swimmingly :)

i really enjoy my job at Infusion Tea. i wish i didn't work 6 days a week only 5 hours shifts though... i would really like to combine them so i have more time to do other things. I did get the job at Joes Crab Shack. its a brand new one they are in the process of building- so December is when i can start that job- i am very excited for it!!! my roomie Trevor and our friend Troy also got jobs there- so that could be fun-

so overall my plan of attack for finding a job worked... out of applying to 3 jobs (Joes, Tea place & Disney) in orlando, i got hired at 2 pretty much on the spot-

i have applied at Disney(of course :) ) but have yet to hear anything- which makes me a bit sad--- but i will keep trying- even seasonal there would be nice-

i was able to go to Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party and had a GREAT time!!! i went by myself and wouldnt have had it any other way (well maybe my family, or my disney gang, and becky of couse would have been nice!!!) ! i went a bit early so i could see a few of my favorite resorts! i really do love disney, it was everything that i remembered!!

i have found a carwash, but have yet to use it-

i have found a big.O (tire kingdom), but have yet to use it-

i need to go grocery shopping, but have yet to do it-

we have a PO BOX :) its quite a drive away, but its WAY cheaper than the one close by---

the one we are using is about 15 min away and was 22$ for 6 months... the one thats 3 min away was 26$ per month--- yeah, i think we made the right choice :)

so far i havent got a paycheck yet because of when i started and the times they do checks.. so the past few weeks have been VERY tricky, but i have survived- needless to say, my next paycheck will come in handy!!!

so thats just a random blurb of whats going on-

it has been a bit chilly the past few days, about 50 degrees- (i didnt say freezing, i said chilly) i am hoping for a visit from my family and hopefully some friends!!!

somebody come play

today is the last day of our catering the Handcart pageant. i really enjoy doing this type of work. its somewhat similar to serving people, but different still, a much faster paced job. i am ready for it to be done, yet sad that it prob wont happen again.

overall i have been a bit bummed out lately. but my buddy Tyler came for a quick visit and we had such a good time! we played almost every night! we went camping, a few late night walmart trips... we really all had a good time. tyler is now in Hawaii.. and i miss him...

i have been thinking about Orlando a lot lately, not just visiting either... moving there. working there. living there. i have applied to WDW and i hope i get accepted.

i have chosen Orlando because its far away from a certain boy whose name starts with a B and ends with an Enjamin. (everytime i go to SLC all i worry about is seeing Benjamin and the girl. SLC is their territory.... my stomach just turns and aches!!!)

i also chose Orlando because i have lived there before, i am fairly certain i can get a job at WDW again, and i am ready to live on my own again, and i know i can make a lot of friends there.

its just too lonley and sad in nephi. there are people here that are my age, but they are all marriend and have kids... and the younger ones are all still in HS... i am almost 25... so its a bit awkward.. i feel like the chaperon.

so thats whats been on my mind lately. i really am not too bummed out, just extra lonley...

Somebody come play!!!

!!!WDW.WOW!!!

i was able to spend December 11th - 18th in Florida with my family this year!

we had a really great time, i love being at disney world, and especially with my family! i couldnt have had a better time!

Heather, Celeste and I had a lot of fun 'Pin Trading'! we got new lanyards and everything! the family was really good to me: they let me plan everything out! even though we changed a lot of things, we still used our itinerary like a bible!

my family loves eating good food, and Disney is FULL of good food(hehe)

the family even let me watch the Parades, and sing to Wishes, and Dance with Mickey in Fantasmic....

Disney World really is a perfect vacation for the Mickelson Family!

we had to wake up early a lot of the time, the last day was the worst though.....

• 7:15AM = Plane Departing
  
• 5:15AM = Arrive at Airport
  
• 4:00AM = Wake up/ Breakfast/ Loading Car
  

very early! then put that to UTAH TIME, we had to wake up at 2AM!!! so unfair!!

but it was really worth it--
