Time is flying by in Orlando, I can't believe I've almost been here for two months already! My cousin and her boyfriend from Phoenix came to visit last week, and it was really fun to have some familiar faces around and to show them all around the parks, now that I'm a pro!I love so many things about this internship, but there are others that I could definitely live without. Today we had an inspection of our apartment, and they are notoriously strict on the condition of our apartments and have very clear rules and regulations. I understand why it is necessary with such large numbers of students living in the complexes, but it is also frustrating. As 6 young women living together, all over the age of 21, it is frustrating for us that we have to adhere to rules we haven't since high school! We cannot have visitors past 1 AM, we cannot hang anything on the walls except one bulletin board per tenant, etc.
Work is going well and I was trained on a new position as the front desk runner this week. It is a fun position because you get to be away from the desk and all over property. I mainly put together character cards and amenities for guests with various celebrations, which was really fun knowing I was helping make their time at Disney World a little more special. We are in the middle of a quiet time for the next two weeks, and then spring break hits and it is supposed to be a mad house until the end of the summer! I have a feeling the time is just going to go by even faster once peak season truly hits!

It is true, times go fast and soon we will finish with our internship hopefully. I am glad that you enjoyed doing your internship at the Disney World, congratulation on your path of success to professional. However, it is hard for us to follow certain rules, but we have to obey even if we do not agree because we are learning to be professional. I understand you that sometimes it is very difficult to live alone with out our family. However, I am sure that your internship worth it.
Time is going by extremely fast! I think it is great how comfortable you feel around the parks! I also think it is great that you are making a difference at the resort and learning a lot about the hospitality industry as well! Good luck once the peak season hits! I know my internship will be insane from April-May!
