Quick Road Trip Update

We have finally finished day two of our three day road trip to Orlando, Florida. We are now stopped for the night in Mobile, Alabama and will get on the road for our final eight hour drive to Orlando in the morning! From there we'll check into the hotel and tomorrow evening we'll be meeting up with my roommates for dinner (location TBA). 

Overall it has been a long, tiring, exciting trip! I have never been to these states at all and it has been really cool to travel through the south, as well as have some authentic Texan BBQ (nothing like it people!!!). I can't believe the day after tomorrow is already check-in...like I keep telling everyone, it just doesn't feel real.

You'll be hearing from me after check-in and I get all settled into my new apartment and I can't wait to do so! Until then, wish me safe travels on our final day!!!

Day 1 of our travels

My car had a beautiful run in with a pole at the DQ drive through, lost my side view mirror...I've already cried it out people.

Day 2 of our travels!

Louisiana - filled with many, many bridge.

REAL Texan BBQ! $3.75 for that sandwich and it was AMAZINGGGGG!

Alright, I didn't take this picture, but it was dark and I couldn't catch the sign!

Life Updates: 36 Days and Counting

I am a little over a month away until my check-in date in Orlando and, of course, I couldn't be more excited. Just like everything in life, I expect these next five weeks to fly by, here's what I have in store:

Week 1:  Last week of school--two finals left!

Week 2:  Christmas week and leave to visit my dad in Colorado

Week 3:  Finish up vacation in Colorado, New Years Eve celebration, leave for Disneyland

Week 4:  Week in Disneyland!!!

Week 5:  Last week at home, leave for Florida!

To give you some updates on my life, I have actually moved out of my home and into my God-brother's home. Over Thanksgiving my roommates and I had our house broken into, no one was hurt and not too, too much was taken. Two days later, somebody (who I assume to be the same person) tried to break in while we were all home sleeping. Needless to say, it was enough to scare us out of our home as three young women. 

Finals are going pretty well, as you read above, I only have two finals left, and I feel pretty confident about them. I'm excited to pack up all my stuff and head home to begin the holiday festivities! 

As far as Disney College Program news goes, I unfortunately had to miss my We're All Ears Disney College Program meet up for all the Fall/Fall Advantage 2104 DCPer's from my university because that was the day I got broken into again. However, I've been able to correspond with my peers participating via email and Facebook. I'll be excited to meet them when I get down to Florida.

I have sat down and mapped out our route for our road trip to Florida! It's about a 32 hour drive and we're planning on taking three days:

January 16:  Stay the night in Phoenix, AZ before we depart

January 17:  Depart from Phoenix, AZ to San Antonio, TX (~13 hours)

January 18:  Depart from San Antonio, TX to Mobile, AL (~10 hours)

January 19:  Depart from Mobile, AL to Orlando, FL (~8 hours)

Well those are all the updates I have for now. Look forward to more blog posts and more vlogs when I finally get home and don't have to worry about school!
