Lots of people have asked me why I have decided not to live the life culinary. Well lets start with the three new burns I have, three in two days. Not much has happened in the last few weeks, well not anything I want to post here. Not much has happened here, though one of my room mates ahs gone home since his time was up, so I'm short one. Also in two weeks the other two will be going home, so I may have to move to a new apt.
Oh and I bought some new EVAs on Thursday.

Florida Mall
I hate you Florida mall, with your Gamestop, EB, Borders with a Manga section bigger the my living room, Hot topic, and Anime store. I hate you because I spent to much money. I hate you because I will go back to you and spend more. I do however love you for having a pair of shoes in payless in my size. That rocked.
So yeah, I bought 4 mangas, a pair of shoes, a large box of pocky for $2.29 and this really aweome EVA unit 01(see picture link below).
Ok, I'm off to do some laundery then play some computer games. Got another day off tomorrow. Not sure yet what I'm going to do.

Click, Click Click
I have adopted a bunny. You see there is this cute little bunny that lives outside my building and it's always in front of my parking spot when I come home at night, so I have claimed it as my own. MY bunny. MINE.
I tired to go to bed early last night, but my roommate stayed up till 6am messing around on his laptop. All night long: Click. Click. ClickClick. ClickityClick. Click. Click. Click. ClickClick. ClickityClick. Click. I ended up crawling out to the couch and sleeping there form a few hours. Quite comfy that couch.
Nothing interesting has happened in the last few days. I've been getting the hang of my new job and yesterday night I did so well I got entered into some kind of performance contest.
Oh well, I'll be up late tomorrow night, no work monday or tuesday.

Not so Living Seas
Today sucked. Oh yes. I got up at 12pm got ready for work and had some lunch at 1. I got to the Coral Reef Restaurant at 2, where I was told that they do breaks different, you get your whole break at the start of your shift. So, from 1pm to 11pm I didn't eat anything. Quite a few times at that insanely busy place I felt like passing out. Oh well, know better for tomorrow, err, today.
I'd like to take a minute, just sit right there I'll tell how I became the prince of bel-air. No, wait, I'm going to talk about my room mates. yeah that's it. I gotta start writing these before I get punch drunk....
So room mate #1, the one I share a bedroom with, Howard. Howard is a nice guy, drinks a bit much for me but that's his thing. Howard may or may not be gay. I honestly can't tell. It's be years since that has happened. He gives off all the gay vibes, but he dates women. Oh well, not my problem. He is original for Buffalo and went to school in N.C. so half my room is covered in Sabers/Woflpack stuff.
Room mate #2, Richard. Richard is the typical geek. Warhammer, D&D, TCGs, comics, anime. He has done it all. He is a lot shorter then me and about as skinny as me, but studied martial arts and was in the Army, so he's not someone to mess with.
Room mate #3, Greg. Greg confuses me the most. Greg has a lot of women chasing after him (I've heard about 5 so far in the 2 weeks here) and yet he does nothing with them. NOTHING. Not even date. There is one girl in our building that comes over almost every night to see him and every time she starts to show him any affection, he finds a reason to leave. Now this girl doesn't seem to have anything that would make her chase guys off, so I don't really get the whole thing. He chases after a girl till he gets her, then boom she's forgotten. I guess he only likes the chase? Between his strange sleeping habits and the whole thing with women, sometimes the guy really freaks me out.
Anyway, I promised to post pics of my living arrangement 2 days ago, but it's been raining so taking pics has been a bad idea. Hopefully tomorrow it will clear up and I can take some.

Day off #2
Another day off with nothing to do. When I finally dragged myself out of bed, I went to see 300. The movie rocked and it wasn't as bloody or gory as I expected.
I haven't mentioned it yet, but Friday I mentioned my Chefs about my peanut allergy and they didn't know. It seems that the kitchen I was placed in uses peanuts and peanut butter all the time. So I'm getting moved. Found out today I'm being moved to "The Seas", sweet seafood!
It's funny but the two radio stations I've been listening to down here are 101.1 and 97.9(which just so happens to be 98 rock.) The really funny part is that they are far better then the ones back home, they play a better mix of music(it's been two weeks and not a song repeated) and they don't take as many breaks, just lots of music.
I'm thinking of looking to staying here....
As for maggie's comment, I'm pretty much always off by 10:30pm and I'm almost always online. I don't call people because some people never answer the phone(justin) I'm not the biggest fan of talking on the phone and I don't know when I can call people...

Happy Easter
Happy Easter everyone! And wesolego alleluja!
I'm lonely and home sick. Yes I have 3 room mates 2 of whom are geeks. Do I see them? No. They work when I'm home and vice-versa. Some people I haven't talk to since getting here, some in over a week some in days. Lawrence has been the only person I talk to on a regular basis with Jason coming in close behind...
I miss my dog. I miss my house. I miss places I used to go. I do not miss the Aquarium, it can suck my ****. I don't miss the fish either, but I have the Living Seas to see them in.
The last time someone called me that was not my mom or sister was on
3/29. Yes that's March 29th, today is April 9th. I keep thinking of turning off trillian and Gtalk since no one ever IMs me. Now I'm going to go listen to My chemical romance and cut my wrists. Kidding. You know I'd never willing listen to MCR. ;)
I'm happy I'm not in either of the other two apt complexes they have here, the road they are on is more of a parking lot the way traffic is. Tomorrow(today??!?!) I"m going to see to movies. 300 and either TMNT or meet the Robinsons. I will also be posting a Photo tour of where I live.
Now I'm off to kill stuff.

So tired....
So yesterday I worked 1pm to 9:30pm and today I worked 6am to 2:30pm. I managed about 4 hours sleep last night. I came home today and took a 4 hour nap, but I'm still so tired. I wanted to go see a movie tonight, but when I got to the theater, all the ones I was interested in were sold out till 11pm and it was 8pm. I'm going to try again tomorrow maybe see two. I was bored today so I found a site where you can make your own Joke Motivational Posters, so I made 5:

1st real day of work
Today was my first real day of work. My kitchen is huge and has windows!(most kitchens don't.) We had Pirate theme party today. The replica of the Flying Dutchman was awesome. And the center pieces were really cool too. I learned that even though I may like the soundtracks to POTC and POTC 2, I can't hear them more then 3 times in a row without getting sick of it. It rained today and it's a bit cooler here tonight then it's been (61 at night, which is still warmer then home during the day. *blows raspberry*) I'm finally starting to feel home sick as I've now been here a whole week. I miss everyone but some people more then others ;).
Well, Mickey is knocking on the door, It's time for our arse raping, gotta go....

Wedensday.
I have no better name because nothing big happened. I slept late then I went to the Costco down here. Spent $75 and bought enough food for a month. Then I came home and did nothing some more. I ate some of my food and I'm going head down to the Gym for a bit. I'm bored and have nothing better to do right now.
Oh and this is the movie I helped with that my room mate made. Oh and get your mind out of the gutter, it's not that kind of movie.

Discovery Day
Today was my EPCOT Discovery Day, I learned Ray Bradbury named Space Ship Earth(the golf ball). I learned very little else. I was told by four different people all in a row that it was a a slow time and next week it would pick up. I was in a group with lots of people my age, but who do I make friends with? The older retired couple. Yup, that's me...
When I got back, I did nothing for an hour, then went to get dinner. When I got back I found out the building behind mine was on fire. Nothing wrong with mine, so I ate dinner, and did nothing some more. Then one of my roommates can home and decided to make a funny video and asked for my help, so I'll be in a video about toothpaste later.
Day off tomorrow, so maybe some swimming.

Tips on disney
I sent out this as an email to a couple people and one of them said I should post it here, so...
For those of you planning or even thinking of visiting me, I will now give you some tips on Disney. I'm sure my sister will give you more, but remember who gave you tips first!!!
1. If you are flying down and staying on property, make sure you sign up for Mickey's Magical Express. It is a FREE bus service from Orlando airport to whatever Disney hotel you're staying at. It's a real nice tour bus which during the ride they will show you a Disney movie....
2. Disney hotels can turn your room key into a Credit card tied to the room, so you can charge things against the room, this can make quick meals at the hotels even easier.
3. All shops in the parks have the option to have what you buy either shipped to the front of the park, or back to your room so you don't have to carry it around all day.
4. Anytime you have to get in a line(food, rides, shopping) always go to the line farthest left. People in the US(and a lot of the world) are used to walking and driving on the right, so they tend to go to the right line. 8 out of 10 times the Left line will be shorter. (I used that trick this week on Pirates)
5.If you are taking the Monorail to Magic Kingdom, ride the Resort one and not the Express. People think the express will get them there faster and that the resort one will not go to the park. They are soooo wrong. The resort gets to the park only slightly slower and it is always emptier then the express. On crowed days you can get a seat on the resort while on the express you'll be packed in like a sardine.
5. The Fast Pass. It's a wonderful thing and will save you time by keeping you out of lines. But you can only have one at a time, right? Wrong. Sure you can only have one on you admission ticket, but most Fast Pass machines have a little button on the back near the top that if you press, the machine will spit out Fast Pass. Not many people not on cast know about this, so don't go blabbing it, also not all the machines buttons work.
6. It does not matter which hotel you stay at on property, you can go to any of the others and use the pools and other ahemitys at them. This is great as some hotels suck, but have awesome pools.
7. Have one "Big meal" a day. Don't eat a big, expensive breakfast, lunch and dinner. Pick one and eat cheap the rest. Your wallets and stomachs will thank you.
8. Disney mixes their drinks hard and well. One drink here will pack the punch of two most other places but they are mixed so well you won't feel or taste it.
9. Parades are a great time to go on rides. Ride wait times almost always drop during parades. Since everyone is watching the parade, no one is riding rides!
10. Magic Kingdom and Disney MGM studios both have "Main Streets" and on the left side(when entering the park) they both have shops that are connected and run the length on the "Main Street". They all have A/C. But few people seem to realize this, so they make great shortcuts around the crowds. Also, during parades, they are really the only way around.
11. It gets really hot here, far hotter then baltimore. Drink lots of water, wear lose light colored clothes, and try to wear shorts.Even if you don't like them, you'll like passing out less.
12. MAKE RESERVATIONS. When you want to eat somewhere, make reservations. Almost all the sit down resturents will let you make them, and it is really good idea to for a number of reasons, which I'll go it to only at request. Also, I highly recomend going to the Hoop Dee Doo Revue. It's a fun all you can eat show/buffet. The food is really good american style(Fried chicken, ribs, corn on the cob, beans and strawberry shortcake, plus unlimited draft beer, wine, sangria and soft drinks. I love it, the food is good and so is the show, but you have to make reservations well in advance. Like TODAY.
13. Go buy a Birnbaum's book. http://www.amazon.com/Birnbaums-Walt-Disney-World-2006/dp/0786855487 that's the 06 editon, but the 07 should be out. It will make planning a lot easier.
More tips to come as I think of them. All of these my family have been using for years, some we learned from guide books and many Lisa came up with.
A real post will come later.

Adventure last night, Fear tonight
Yesterday I had another boring class, that just repeated stuff I already knew. Afterward I went to church. The church closest to me in Mary, Queen of the Universe. They always say there that it is not a parish churhc and they have no parishioners. I plan to be it's 1st ever parishoner. After church I realized how awesome it is that I'm at the Vista Way apts, because the other two Disney has are on the same street as the church. That street is always like a parking lot. Everyday, all day.
When I was done, I went home had some dinner, then me and one of my roommates went over to Pleasure Island. We went to The Adventures Club and I had half of some crappy drink and a Smirnoff. The jokes were actually pretty good and the actors were pretty quick on their toes. Plus watching the drunks make fools of themselves was fun.
Today I slept till 1 then went off to find Chipotle. It was a bit of a trip and with all the toll roads here it cost me $2.50 to get there, but it was nice to eat like home. After that I made a dry run to where I'll be working, looks like without traffic it would take me about 15 minutes to get there. I came back and took a swim. Now I sit here somewhat scared of tonight. You see, (for those of you that don't know) Tonight is the Ohio state, Florida state game. I'm living in central Florida and a lot of the Kids in my Apt complex are from Ohio State. I'm kinda worried that no matter the out come of the game, things here will be bad. So I ask that those of you that pray, pray for me tonight.
Well, Gotta be up early tomorrow, see ya!
