I Heart LAST WORD in Charlotte

I was super excited that recently I found a local used bookstore. You would think Charlotte, NC would have more of a selection of used books store especially since I am located near The University of North Carolina at Charlotte. The Last Word is the name of the store and their books are a good price.  Today I bought 3 books for $12. Check out their website http://www.thelastwordcharlotte.com/.

The books I bought today.

Art of Animation Resort Open Mouse 2012


At the end of May I was given the opportunity to get a sneak peak of the new Art of Animation Resort since I am Cast Member. Let me just say that this resort is gorgeous! Check out my pictures of the resort. There will be a total of 4 sections of the resort only two are open. The Finding Nemo and Cars section are open to the public they are finishing up the Lion King and The Little Mermaid section.

It was a scavenger hunt/map

Playing Catch Up!!

I have so many pictures that I haven’t posted yet. It seems like I am always working. The heat here is not fun and I hate it especially when I work outside at my attraction. At least I get a break once in a while and I get to work inside at the Animation Academy or performing one of the Drawn to Animation shows with Mushu. Here are some of the pictures I have taken. ENJOY and have a great Monday!!!

Hey Ya’ll,

It has been a while since I have blogged. It seems that I am always working and if I am  not working I’m trying to catch up on sleep or in the parks. I am 2 months into my Disney College Program.(Crazy)  Currently, I am looking around and trying to figure out what I should do with my life. Until, I figure those things out I will keep you on your toes with waiting to find out what I am going to do. But, I do believe everything happens for a reason. Have fun looking at my pictures that I have taken and I will try to keep you updated.

Get those Negative Thoughts out of your head!

One thing in life I haven’t figured out is when you receive a compliment it almost makes you embarassed. The other night I had one of those what the heck am I doing with my life moments. My mother proceeded to say to me “Jennifer you are so strong. You are stronger than you realize. You keep moving forward if you fall down and pick yourself back up.” After she said that I just didn’t know what to say. Then I began to hear that voice that we all here that  says the opposite of what you just heard. It is great to have friends and family that help you get rid of those negative thoughts.
