feeling hot hot HOT!!

Flo-ri-da is HAWTTTTTTTT!! ohmigosh it is toasty down here at the moment! Yesterday it was 97degrees but felt more like 108 with the humidity... rather warm!! The past two weeks have been... interesting. I had three days in which I called in sick and beforehand was ROS'd from work twice due to being sick... I had flu with a chest infection and low blood pressure.... never fun. So I had a few days off to rest and recuperate... two of the most boring and long days of my program so far!! Although I needed rest it is never a good thing when you have too much going on in your head!

My days off that week were fun, I had one which was spent at Seaworld (of course) I finally saw the new Shamu show, One Ocean... it was gorgeous! Yet another soundtrack I need to buy!! I spent a fair few hours at manatee rescue just sitting, watching and thinking... definatly my relaxing place here in Orlando!! I got to hang out with Jen which was lovely as we rarely get days off together!!

I also went to see another Ray's game at Tropicana Park... yet again they won, this time against the Boston Red Sox. I had alot of fun and I cannot wait to go to another game!! I love it so so much, the atmosphere, the game itself and the excitement of being at a sporting event... it is definatly a feeling you can't beat!! Hoping to go with my brother when he is here visiting in August!!

I had my lasses t-shirt name given Monday night, lasses is a weekly event taking place on Happy Monday's in which the UK girls get together, play a few games and have a giggle before heading to a venue in Orlando to meet the boys from another country... my shirt name is "Gluten free submarine" because I am gluten free (obvs) and because I love the beatles (lol). It could have been alot worse....
Am having two relaxing days off now consisting of sleeping, shopping, sunbathing and eating... pretty perfect if you ask me!!

we love weekends at Disney

Trying to be more up to date...
These last few days have been AMAZING!! I've hung out with some amazing friends and made some great memories!! Friday I worked (12-6), it was an uneventful day at work and I managed to get an ER for 3.30 which was lush, I had some plans which fell through so ended up hanging out with Leah which I was greatful for as she finishes her program soon :(. Had a lovely girlie night, with a proper homecooked meal, wine, and girlie movies!! Sometime's its a godsend here to have friends you feel totally comfortable with and can just veg out!! After Leah left I was alittle merry, so headed over to see AJ & Euan's new flat, which is lush, and dance around to some Chezza!

Saturday was soooooooo much fun!! Finally AJ & I had a day off together... always promises good things!! The day started with the most amazing care package from home, something which always puts a smile on my face... I have wispas, galaxy's, percy pigs, haribo and morrisons own hard boiled!! I then headed to Epcot to meet the boyo, then to MK for gayday!! We also met up with my friend Ashley from West Palm and Alex from Norway (to celebrate our 6 months). So after splash mountain, thunder mountain, space mountain, meeting the princesses then meeting mickey and minnie we all headed home and had a few cheeky drinks.
Sunday was amazing, not only was it my FRIDAY but my shift was.... sports -> kidcot -> break -> kidcot -> tasking -> home. Monday was Blizzard Beach, and 7 hours spent crisping with Katherine, and putting all our and the worlds problems to rights.... Today I have been to Seaworld, applied for jobs and had a bit of 'me' time drinking wine, eating chocolate and watching girlie films.... all in all an amazing few days... here's hoping the next few are just as much fun :)
