I'm Alive!

Is that you? Ir has been a while since I have updated this for your enjoyment. I read my last post and boy has so much happened since then. With tomorrow being Thanksgiving I am almost to the point where I only have a month left in my internship. These past few months have been absolutely some of the best of my entire life. I have meet some great people had some great times and have grown as a person. I cannot nearly detail everything that has happened in one measly blog post. I will just give you some highlights.

Jumping back to October, from what I can remember, was pretty great. I got a visit from my parents and it was nice to see them and enjoy Disney together for the first time since I was in Middle School. They came at the end of September actually because we attended Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party which was so much fun for the exception it was hot and humid.


Then in the beginning of November I accomplished something that I have always dreamed of doing. I ran a 5K run in 31 minutes and 23 seconds with my roommate. The run was in benefit for Give Kids the World where I have been volunteering since July. It is a 70-acre resort where kids with life threatening illnesses can come and forget about their obstacles and just have fun and families can connect with others going through similar situations. On top of that they get admission into Disney, Universal, SeaWorld, and most other central Florida attractions. I am nearing my 152 hour there and currently am an Volunteer Services Administrative Assistant. This means that I answer the phones, reply to e-mails, and train volunteers on behalf of the village.

I have had much time to think about I was going to do after this internship and the final decision has been made. I will be finishing up at HFCC and then attending Wayne State for Elementary Education. I am also looking into an internship at the Make-A-Wish Internship in the Detroit Office. So who knows where the future will lead me but I am sure it will be great! I will post some pictures below to sum up my experience here! I will also try to update this as much as I can so I don't get yelled at by my grandma!

I guess I had more to share with you than I thought! Well instead of leaving you with a quote I leave you with these photos and HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

Having fun in Epcot!
