Megan's Journal!

Dear Megan,
Congratulations!  You have been selected to participate as a Merchandise Cast Member on the Disney College Program in the Fall 2007 Season.  This is a great opportunity for all students, and we are proud to offer this opportunity to you!  We look forward to the magic you will bring to Walk Disney World Resort and are thrilled about the opportunity we have to include you in our Disney family!  We're sure it is a journey that will change you!
Sincerely,
Jeff Hickman
Walt Disney World College Recruiter


You read correctly folks!  I'm going to be working at DISNEY WORLD in the fall!  I am so so SO incredibly excited.  Being down in Orlando for Reading Week has made me even more (if that's possible) excited for this whole situation.  Talking with Jessie and seeing the areas where I will be working has just pumped me right up.  Now I'm really thankful for this whole opportunity.  Up until this momentI think I have almost dreaded the end of school, leaving friends, graduation, and heading out into the real world.  It almost seems like the end of an era.  But now, I know I have SO much to look forward to.  Things look a lot less scary when you have a plan.

For all those interested here it is for the next year or so... 
*End of April -- School ends, finals done, YESSS.
*Early May -- Subbing and Secretarying it up in B-town.
*Mid-May -- McGillian trip to the Bahamas.  WOOT WOOT!
*May 31st -- GRADUATION
*June, July and August -- Subbing, Secretarying, and possibly another internship at the Farnworth (a work in progress).
*Late August to Early January -- DISNEY WORLD.
*After that -- Who knows.  I'm very much hoping I like Disney (and they like me) enough to stay on with the company, moving up as time goes on.  Only time will tell I guess.

So now... a note to all friends and family:  YOU BETTER COME VISIT ME IN THE FALL!  If you've been there you know what a FANTASTIC place it is... and if you haven't been, take my word for it.  And what a great excuse to take a vacation to DISNEY WORLD!  As a Cast Member of Disney I get LOADS of discounts and will be able to get quite a few people into the parks for free.  So... START PLANNING TRIPS TO ORLANDO NOW!!!!  I've already booked my plane ticket, so can you!

I find it humorous that NONE of my livejournal friends have posted anything all weekend.  IT'S BECAUSE THEY WERE ALL IN MAAAAAAINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This was an utterly BRILLIANT weekend.  I am SOO glad the McGillians were actually able to make it up.  It DEFINITELY would NOT have been anywhere near as fun without them.  Saturday night's party went off with a splash (literally and figuratively).  And unexpected people actually came and STAYED which was pretty awesome.  The night was full of amazing adventures such as jello shots, a water balloon toss/fight, pinata (complete with eye injury and broken bird feeder), jello shots, an extremely short game of night-time volleyball, fun in the pool, jello shots, interesting computer artwork, an un-used 12-person tent, lunch boxes, and more jello shots.

The morning after wasn't as much fun.

Now... there's not really a whole much to look forward to for the rest of the summer.  I think we kind of hit the peak... and it's just downhill from here.  Can you say glass-half-empty?  There are, however, a few upcoming activities which should prove loads o' fun.  I've got a date planned with a TON of the girls (thanks to Aimee) for dinner in Bangor, which should be a glorious time.  Jarrett's going-away party, which should be fuuunnnnn, is also at the end of month.  And then... heading to MONTREAL the first of September!!  YAAYYAYAYAY!!!!  I can't wait to see all my McGillians again.  I just never get sick of you kids!

PARTY THIS WEEKEND!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WHO'S COMING???????????

Current Mood: awake

Am I seriously doing this?  Am I SERIOUSLY updating my livejournal with information actually pertaining to my life?  I think I might be doing just that.  And it scares me a little bit.  But as this is basically the FIRST day in the two months since I've been home that I actually have nothing to do but laze around the house... livejournal is beckoning.

Many exciting things have happened since my arrival in Bucksport at the beginning of April.  MANY things.  Some of the most important include: a delightful family vacation in Bermuda, substitute teaching at the Bucksport High School, fiiiiiiinally finishing my final paper for Research Methods, a trip to Boston to see 'Wicked,' the Shriners Circus (hahaha), a ridiculous surprise anniversary party for Mama and Papa Loz, Aimee's Graduation, numerous graduation parties, a surprise trip to Sudbury for Eliora's bday, and auditioning for 'Oklahoma.'  It's been a pretty busy 8 weeks.  But loads of fun.

The window in my bedroom is currently leaking because of the copious amounts of rain we have gotten the past couple of days.  Not a fan.  At all.  It's also very cold in my room.  Which I'm equally upset with.  Ah well, so goes life.

Also, my dad bought me a package of slim jims the other day... for no apparent reason.  He just thought I would like them.

Now a message for any of those livejournal readers that may have been thinking of visiting Bucksport this summer.  You're all invited and I hope I get LOTS of visitors this summer.  There are a few weekends in particular which should provided added entertainment for all... two of those being the last two weekends in July.  Those two weekends the Bucksport Community Theatre will be putting on it's own rendition of the timeless classic 'Oklahoma.'  Come one, come all and see yours truly on the big stage.  Yaahh... don't get tooooooo excited.  I'm only a supporting cast member.  But it should still be fun, and anyone who wants to come visit either of those two weekends is MORE than welcome to.  We have tons of room in the Murauckas/Chase house.  Also... another weekend (dates yet to be determined) should be entirely exciting.  Aimee and I are hosting an overnight summer party bash... and it will be good times, for sure.  More details on that to come.  Very soon, I hope.

The TV is beckoning... and I now must leave the world of livejournal to pursue the wonders of Animal Planet.

Au revoir, mes amis.
