Not long to go now. In 5 weeks I'll be flying from Manchester to the sunshine state.
It seems to have gone so quickly, I remember finding out like it was just yesterday and setting my countdown app off.
So far i've met some really nice people and hopefully meet even more out in Florida.
Also can't believe some people are going out there in 1 weeks time. Unreal!
I'm slowly getting what i'm taking put together. Decided to buy a duvet and pillow to take out there. Only cost about a fiver for them both from Ikea.
I also need more shorts, flowery ones hopefully. I love my flowery shorts!
Have a magical day guys, and if I don't blog between now and next week. Good luck to the ICPers going out next Sunday! :)

Update about..
Nothing!
Thats right.. Not much is happening on the ICP front with everything basically sorted bar actually getting to Manchester for my flight.
Cricket season starts this week which means a lot of my time will be spent down at the club playing and coaching, which will hopefully speed up the next 44 days.
As of now I have 3 assignments left and university and then I am free to get even more hyped for Disney :D
However, after these 3 assignments i've officially left university and most likely education forever, which is extremely daunting! But at least I have this summer to look forward to before the job searching begins, and who knows, I may apply for the Cultural Representative Program to go and spend a year working in Disney World.
I'll leave you all with this video of Illuminations from Epcot
Have a magical day guys :)

Starlight Starbright
Words any Disney fan would know!
Also the opening words to Wishes in the Magic Kingdom.
Not much has happened on the ICP front, all my documents are here and all sorted out nicely. Its just a case of waiting till the 4th June to fly out there. Which is now 50 days away. :D
But anyway, one thing I can't wait to do is watch Wishes. It's basically what Disney is all about, and will be such an awesome way to start the program- Standing on Main Street, looking at Cinderellas Castle as the sky lights up.
Only about 53/54 days till I can enjoy that :)
I realise there was no point to this blog post. Just a little bit of random musing. I may start the 30 day challenge that i've seen a few people do.

Serving Ice Cream From Inside a Dinosaur
Yes the title of this post may seem a little strange, but after narrowing a shortlist of where i'd like to work to 5. I realised how awesome that would actually be!
So on Wednesday I emailed Becky at Yummy Jobs with 5 location requests where i'd like to work. To be honest I know i'll be happy anywhere, but these 5 places are probably the top 5 i'd like to work in.
It was hard work narrowing down to 5, and even after requesting I find theres more and more places I would love to work in.
But the 5 I requested were:
Cosmic Ray's Starlight Cafe
One of my favourite places to eat in the Magic Kingdom, and was at one point the largest Fast Food restaurant in the world! It still is the largest in Disney World I believe, which means it will be incredibly busy. But the main "star" of this restaurant is Sonny Eclipse, the loveable alien who sings a medley of songs to entertain the guests.
The Main Street Bakery
Walking up Main Street USA just after the park has opened, taking in the smells of freshly baked goodies as you walk, can only mean one thing... You're walking past The Main Street Bakery. Such a lovely place to sit in and have breakfast or a snack, and the smells are incredible!
The Electric Umbrella Restaurant
I love Epcot, and the music around Innoventions area which just happens to be where this location is. It is a pretty large restaurant, and one of only 2 that I think ICP's can work in in Epcot on QSFB.
Dinosaur Gertie's Ice Cream of Extinction
This is where the title of this blog has come from. At first I never even though about it until one of my friends suggested I put it down. What could be more amazing that coming to work inside a Dinosaur and serving Ice Cream to people, while listening to the showbiz soundtracks of Disney's Hollywood Studios!?
Toy Story Pizza Planet
Combining two of my favourite Disney things. Toy Story and Walt Disney World. Based a little bit on Pizza Planet from the Toy Story film, it even has an arcade on the bottom floor. It's the only one out of the five I requested that i've never actually had a meal in, so working in there could be a new experience for me.
Have a magical day :)

The Postman Brings Nice Things!
Well not really the postman, a lady in a car knocked on the door on Tuesday with a special package for me!
My passport with a US Visa inside!
Basically that's everything sorted now before my arrival in Walt Disney World, just go to sort out my dollar and what i'm taking with me.
Its just over a month will the first group of people go out, which is incredibly excited for them all. It seems to be coming round so fast!
In 59 days i'll be leaving England for a nice long summer in the most Magical Place on Earth.
Have a magical day :)
