Just got back from the movies with Patrick. We went and saw War of the Worlds with Tom Cruise. Overall, I thought it was a decent movie. It really kept you on the edge of your seat the entire movie. It’s certainly a movie worth going to see despite a few things that just will make you say “come on, that’s not possible.” Movie was packed too which is a good thing I guess. In other news, while we were at dinner before hand, I ran in to Lova and Heather from Eckerd Campus Activities. It was fun to see them again even though it was brief. Well, off to bed.

Well’ it must be summer in Florida again when it rains everyday around four in the afternoon. I am off today and have just been chilling around the house getting things done. Met up with Patrick yesterday and walked around Epcot and will be heading out in a bit to meet up with him again so we can catch War of the Worlds if it isn’t sold out. Things are going well and my birthday was amazing. Simply put, I had an amazing time with my close friends and it will be a day I will never forget. I was also supposed to be meeting with an Area Manager of Guest Relations today but, I got a phone call this morning informing me of a schedule change and that meet and greet will not be happening today but we will reschedule. Not much else new in my world.

Well folks. Only a couple of days to go till my birthday. Last night I met up with Patrick after he got out of work and we did the Virtual Magick Kingdom Quests in the Magic Kingdom. VMK is a new online experience that is similar to the Sims. Players create a virtual person and can walk around a virtual Disney Theme Park and interact with other guests. Completing the quests earn you items you can use in the game such as trading pins, shirts, hats, and more. Also, when you purchase items in the park, you can get a card to get the same item as a virtual souvenir in the game. Soon, it will tie in to the Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters at Disneyland Resort I am told and guests in VMK can play with guests at Disneyland.

After we did our quests and got our prizes, we went off to Downtown Disney and walked around a bit before getting dinner at Wolfgang Puck’s and then deciding to go see a movie at AMC. We decided see Herbie Fully Loaded due to lack of others that looked interesting. It wasa decent movie and was cute. My only complaint is that they really don’t mention Herbie’s past. They show clips of the older movies and make Herbie look like a race hero but they don’t ever go back to it. Personally, if you find an old car that was a huge race hero wouldn’t you notice? Oh well, it was a fun movie. That’s all for now folks.
