I give good neck

So I've worked out ONCE since I got here. The heat is disgusting; as is the profuse sweating. I kept saying once I got shorts, I'd work out.
Problem: I kept making excuses for not buying shorts..AND THE OUTLET IS LESS THAN 1.5 MILES AWAY!!!

Well folks, I gave up on the excuses and FINALLY went to the Reebok outlet today! I spent $28 and walked out with new shorts! These shorts make me want to work out. I absolutely LOVE them. I'm sad the pictures don't reflect the true colors because these shorts are superly awesome.

Purple murple. And Pinks.

Oh yeah...and I feel like being real mean to my roommate right now. She left her curling iron on and now my hand is burnt to hell. I had to take a dishrag full of ice to the gym. Boo.
I'm NOT excited...

Roommate Central, USA and silly girl drama.

I have a roommate. I lucked out and made it almost four weeks without one; she arrived this morning. BYU Idaho, married, cute and very nice. She's missing her voice now, but I think it's fun. She's never lived with anyone other than her husband which is also kind of fun and I've never had an actual roommate (other than a sister and the 40 something girls I shared the barracks with) so this should be interesting. I packed WAY too much stuff and we don't have anymore room for food, but once everyone is settled and schedules are adjusted I think everything will be great. Maybe I'll just have to stop buying food and actually save my money. I'll keep you posted on how that's going.

Got screamed at by a co-worker AGAIN yesterday. Pretty bogus, but oh well right? Tis the season for dramatic girls who think they know everything. Apparently change isn't good for all. I just think it's funny that she seriously thinks I'm afraid of her. Girl please. If you threaten me again though...I'm going to the boss and I'll be crossing me fingers that you'll be out of a job. Call me stupid all you want, but threatening me is something I won't put up with.

Nap time.

Typhoon Lagoon sun.



I finally got some sun! I've been here three weeks so far and am just getting some sun. We went to Typhoon Lagoon (a Disney owned water park) and I actually had fun. I HATE water: pools, ocean, bath tubs..pretty much everything, but it was really fun. We stayed for several hours, tried to swim with sharks and sissed out, and ended up with sunburned shoulders. I'm sad the pictures don't show the burn...at least then maybe I'd get some sympathy from the two of you that might actually read this. I have a super awesome bit of pink on my forehead. Half is normal (due to my swoop bangs) and the other slightly pink. It's kind of cute. However...not cute is the gross, once wet, water park hair. Ugh.

Fun filled days off

Worst day ever Tuesday: I strained my ankle..TWICE, got yelled at by a co-worker who thinks he's king, was repeatedly cursed at by some retarded woman, and almost hit several people because they wouldn't get out of the way of my tram. Fairly certain Mr. Universe said, "Hey, Cori has two days off coming up so I think we should pile a whole bunch of crap on her!"
SUPER BOGUS UNIVERSE!

Wednesday was super fun though. I didn't get Korean like I was planning on, and I didn't do any of the shopping that I needed to, but I hung out with some friends pretty much all day. We first hit up Animal Kingdom and Yak & Yeti (super delicious restaurant in Asia), next was Paris, England, Canada and Mexico, and finished the night at Magic Kingdom.
Yesterday was my relaxing and lazy day off. Wednesday was busy and semi productive so I didn't feel so guilty about doing practically nothing. I did feel rather accomplished though; I did my laundry! It's taken three weeks, $7 and two hours, but it's done!

Best part of yesterday had to be the "Disney activities" I was able to participate in. My department held a tour of the Haunted Mansion and I was actually able to go. There were only about 15 of us that could make it..which was perfect. We did a walk thru of the entire ride, saw how everything worked, touched certain things, and then we rode it afterwards. It was super neat. I definitely jumped several times during the walk thru of the graveyard scene. Even with the lights on, things jumping out at you is not awesome.
Also, I think every time Disney gets something new they let the cast preview it. They're bringing back the Electric Parade so last night, at midnight all us cast members lined Main Street and watched the parade. I'm not a huge fan of parades normally, but Disney definitely has it's ways of bringing out that childlike excitement.

I took the cupcake picture for my friend Candice. She's kind of obsessed.



Apparently the "night scene" option on my camera makes everything blurry. I don't love it.

I don't work until 8:45 tonight. That's crazy. I have no idea what I'm going to do, but I definitely need to get out of the house. Hopefully the gym, and then we'll see!

Oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh!

Okay..first of all..can you believe it's June 1st already? June 1st. Time is going by much too quickly.
But...more importantly, I SAW AN ALLIGATOR AT WORK YESTERDAY! And no..I don't work at the Animal Kingdom where sightings are an every day occurrence. Remember..I work in the parking lot. I saw an alligator IN THE PARKING LOT! I was doing re-park (I have a super sweet light stick and point cars down rows with empty spaces), I turned around to face an oncoming car and saw an alligator crossing the street! So great. I'm still ridiculously excited about it. As soon as I got on a tram, I told everyone riding about it. They didn't seem as excited as I was, but I'm from Utah...we don't have alligators just hanging out in our backyards or our THEME PARKS! Can you imagine an alligator strolling around Lagoon?? No, you can not. Pretty awesome.

Almost as exciting as the alligator, me I'm going out for Korean tomorrow! I'm super duper excited. Epcot, then Korean, then hopefully Magic Kingdom...to spend way too much money. Money I don't have, but gifts need to be bought.


Seriously though..I SAW AN ALLIGATOR..just hanging out!!
Thank you nature..and Florida.
