Never want to grow up...

Today, I was reading and had some self reflection.
How has the Disney College Program changed me?
It has a great impact but what will I take back with me once its all over. I hope to keep my sleep schedule early. I hope to keep my responsibilities. I hope to improve my self worth. I hope to bring smiles to peoples faces. I hope to keep some disney magic.

Coaster Check List

Florida Coaster

ShekiKra - Busch Gardens

Incredible Hulk - Islands of Adventure

Montu - Busch Gardens

Dueling Dragons - Islands of Adventure

Rock n Roller Coaster - Disney's Hollywood Studios
Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit - Universal Studios

Kumba - Busch Gardens

Space Mountain - Magic Kingdom

The granddaddy of the Disney World coasters was born in 1975, making it the oldest coaster in Florida. It continues to please in an almost-quaint Tomorrowland way.<br>
<br>
The darkness enhances most of the thrills. Your party launches single-file into a twisted mass of two strategically lit rails. Other cars swoosh by with glow-in-the-dark accessories against a "starry" roof. It's not that fast, but it's curiously fun. (<b>NOTE:</b> Space Mountain will close April 19 for renovations and reopen later in 2009.)<br>

Expedition Everest - Disney's Animal Kingdom

Revenge of the Mummy - Universal Studios

Gwazi - Busch Gardens

This double-sided ride provides traditional, wooden sound effects, and it looks great, maybe too great. Although it has a high hill -- 90 feet -- it doesn't drop the length of it.<br>
<br>
Of course, it's a rough one. I feared elbow-to-face contact with my co-pilot. But it's hard to beat the thrill of seeing folks on the opposing track speed by in a dueling racket.<br>

Tampa Bay's Scorpion - Busch Gardens

The orange coaster stuck away in Timbuktu strikes me as the forgotten, neglected little brother at the park. It has a dated, 1970s-coaster feel. It also packs a surprise: After the first drop, riders go upside down in a loop without benefit of an over-the-shoulder harness. Only the lap bar and the laws of physics keep folks secure.<br>

Primeval Whirl - Disney's Animal Kingdom

Described as a "spinning coaster," this ride resembles a Tilt-A-Whirl on a rail. Its location in Chester & Hester's Dino-Rama -- sort of the Gatlinburg of Animal Kingdom -- maintains its carnival-ride vibe. The hills aren't substantial, but in conjunction with the round-and-round-and-round rotation of each car, equilibrium becomes tough to maintain. For more fun, lean into the direction of the spinning.<br>

Self Worth

I am sick. I have been sick since October 22nd 2011.

Self Worth.

Self worth is where I hurt myself the most. I give everything I can to one person, because I don't feel I am worth any good so I show them that I can make them happy by helping them, cause that's the only thing they can use me for. I'm an average photographer who's been left behind by the one she gave her heart to.

Universal

Yay! So me and one of my Rama coworkers went to Universal Studios, Orlando yesturday. It was so much fun! Ian works full time at Rama and is super paitent with helping me get the hang of things.

I can now check off...
The Incredible Hulk
Dueling Dragons side Blue
Hollywood Rip Ride Rollercoaster

Hollywood rip ride was one of the best coasters I've been on. Wow whata rush! With a 90 degree lift, it starts off with you looking to the skies rocking out to a song of your choice! I couldn't believe how much fun I had! Me and Ian rocked out and were gonna buy the video it records but the lady said it was to dark ro film!! Dang it!! Oh well, can't wait to go back. I had an awesome time.
