I'm back!

Sorry to everyone out there following that it's been a while since an update. The last two weeks of school were crazy busy with projects, practicals and exams but I made it through and I'm so happy to have my first semester behind me! Now I am on my semester break and got to spend a wonderful Easter Sunday with my family and had some relaxing down time in Florence. But today mama, papa, and I are headed back to Florida because tomorrow we go to DISNEY WORLD!! I'm pretty excited, I'm not gonna lie! However, I am very sad that Rebecca won't get to go with us on this trip. This is the first time I have ever taken a family. Vacation without her and I'm not really sure how to act. She will be greatly missed!

We are staying at a brand new resort for us this time. We will be staying at Bay Lake Towers at the Contemporary. This is also the first time we have stayed in a DVC area of a resort and it will be interesting to see the differences and how we like it. For those who don't know this is the most recently added resort area and it is connected to the contemporary and on the monorail as well as within walking distance from the Magic Kingdom. Don't worry I'm hoping to give a full review when we get back but for now I'll just leave you with this fun fact:
Did you know that the Walt Disney World resort has 11 monorail trains that
average 40 mph but can reach speeds of up to 55 mph, making it one of the
fastest rides at Disney World!

The countdown is on!

9! That's right only 9 more school days left before I have completed my first semester of graduate school. It seems so close and yet so far away! Probably because within those nine school days I will have 3 quizzes, 3 practicals, 2 papers, 1 in class presentation, and 4 finals! My goodness, when you spell it all out like that it sure is a lot and pretty stressful to look at. However, there is light at the end of this tunnel and I only have tok push through these things to get to go home and spend time with my family and then I get to go to Disney World! The promise of Disney magic and pixie dust is what is helping me through. Hope you are all having a wonderful week so far!
