It's been over a year since anything has been written in here so once again, I'm gonna have to do some catching up. In November of 2001, I had just finished up my 2nd season at Dorney and was getting ready for my trip back to DisneyWorld along with a Disney Cruise...
Disney Cruise - My grandmother took me, my mom, my cousin Kevin, and his mom (my aunt) down to Florida for 7 nights...3 days at DisneyWorld and 4 on a Disney Cruise. At the beginning of the vacation, there was some sort of mix-up with the tickets/baggage/bus for my mom, aunt, and gram. Apparently, they had somehow gotten different packages than me and my cousin so their bags were being sent to the ship or something...I don't know...it was too long ago. But, it had them trying to figure things out with the hotel and made us miss our scheduled lunch. Other than that, things were fine. We hit Epcot on the 1st night there. The following day, we went to Animal Kingdom for a few hours in the morning, went to Epcot for lunch, and then went to MGM after lunch. Kevin and I went to Pleasure Island later that night. On Saturday, we did Magic Kingdom, and on Sunday, the cruise began. The cruise was pretty cool....soooo much to do on the ship. It was great fun.
Unemployment - I ended up snagging unemployment due to my seasonal employment at Dorney and got 320 bucks every couple weeks. People got mad at me and told me I was lazy and crap...oh well! They were just jealous that I wasn't working and was getting money for nothing.
Dorney Park - I went back for my 3rd Season even though Jen didn't want me to. Again, I could have been a supervisor but I didn't want the hours so I worked at White Water Landing for the 2nd straight year. It was an interesting summer to say the least. I ended up meeting people who I grew to care about a lot more than I ever thought I would. But then again, this is reality, and nothing has a happy ending. So the season ended pretty badly but I got my bonus and it helped pay for yet another trip to Disney!
Jen - We were doing pretty well until June 2002. I met someone at the park that I liked so I broke up with Jen because I felt guilty about liking someone else. Nothing ever happened between me and the other girl but I still felt bad. Well...in the fall, Jen and I got back together I guess even though things seem to be confusing as far as what our status is...LoL.
Megan - This is the girl I met at the park. So much happened with her that it's hard to write it all. Basically, I fell pretty hard for her, gave up Jen in the process, and nothing happened between us anyways. I have a lot of mixed emotions towards her. She blew me off at the end of the summer because of something that someone else did. That damaged our friendship beyond repair I guess. Because I forgave her for it and wrote her an email on Christmas, to which she wrote back apologizing and saying she still wants to be friends. But I haven't heard from her since. I don't know why. I miss her and care about her a lot. But as someone said to me, if she really cared about me and wanted to be in my life, she would call, IM, or email me. So, I guess it's pretty obvious how she feels.
My Dog and Depression - In October, my baby, my honey, my puppy dog, Goldie, was put to sleep. We had her for about 10 years. It was really upsetting. That, along with a bunch of other things (money, problems with Megan, personal things, etc...), got me pretty depressed. But something was coming that would cheer me up!!!
Walt Disney World 2002 - Yup, back to the happiest place on earth! This time Jen and I went down for 12 days and had so much fun! Way too much to write here but let's just say, it was so fun...12 days seemed like 7. I did so much stuff. It rained a few days so we didn't get to see as much as we wanted but we still had a great time.
Fun Stuff - This past summer, I still did some other fun stuff. Jen and I went to the shore yet again. We were only there for less than a day though cuz it was September and a lot of stuff was closed. I went to Great Adventure 2 times and Hershey Park once I think. I ate out with people from Dorney a few times. I also joined a bowling league with Keri, one of the people I worked with, and Jen joined too.
Not much else I can think of at the moment but if something comes up, I'll be sure to add it. In the meantime, check back often...I'll be updating this page on a regular basis.
