Yeeehaaa!!

Last night a few of us went for a drink to the funnest bar ever!! Cowboys is a bar that plays country music. Pretty cool already?! well it gets cooler, they have a massive dancefloor and everybody line dances all night long!! Quite possibly the best fun in ages! We felt so American it was unreal! The dances are very very hard but you can pick them up. Its so cheesy and they serve free beer!!!!!! We had an absolute ball and they give lessons on Saturdays at 8pm.. My day off!! so i reckons im gonna go get me some line dancing lessons.. ill be a pro in no time! pics: Top 2 are random folks line dancing! Below Kerri and I being true americans by looking all serious with our beer and Kerri stood in front of a fan being a thoughtful cowgirl! Such a good night!!

Merry Christmas

Hey guys just turned christmas over here and ive just left a party!! Hope you are all having a fab christmas.. really cant wait to be reunited with everyone i think this is the hardest thing ever being away from Kate, Kerry and Emma at christmas!! I miss everyone loads though wish i wsh there with the cap bank lot, living with the Boswells, seeing my family and waking up christmas morning and popping over to see Kate and then Emma and Kerry popping over or giving me a call!! Being away from home right now makes me appreciate what ive got in England and i wouldnt give it away again for anything!! Have a fantastic christmas and get very wasted guys!! I plan to!! I miss you all loads and loads.. its not the same without you!!

Christmas Dinner

So christmas day for me was December 23rd although i didnt open my presents coz im a good boy!! Jo and I decided to treat ourselves and some of our friends to Christmas dinner. We headed to Walmart early (you know how competitive it gets) with Deborah and Bettina, jo's roomies. We got sooo much stuff including a big turkey and a duck and loads of booze and other random junk, the bill came to $165! thats for christmas dinner which in the end fed 12 people!!! Sooo freakin cheap!! So we set to work straight away when we got home i was potato monitor while jo looked after the sprouts veg and birds and then we knda just shared it the longer we got into it. Deborah cooked a lovely pasta dish to start and she made cookies which James and i decorated (he did most of em) We ended up with a full on traditional christmas roast.. we were sooo worried it'd be really bad but it was a massive success.. very pleased!! The best part was spending time with the guys from the interviews who i was talking to right up until i came but when i got here didnt really do all that much so it was kinda like a mini reunion!! Hope they all had a good night as it was definatly a good night! Just to prove we actually did it see below for pics!!

hehe!!

haha some bad photos of my buddies!! sorry guys just made me laugh!!! hahaha! i especially like the one on the bottom left look at Nicci's eyes!! teehee im sooo bad!! if you click on the photo grid it goes bigger by the way!!

More christmas stuff!!

So im still without a camera :( however Jo has very kindly used my laptop for her photos because hers is broken o ive decided to steal some of her photos teehee!! Last week Jo and her roomies decided to begin decorating their lovely apartment in time for christmas and they asked me to help (although i just sat there on my laptop making fun of Candices 'snow' scented candle). It made me feel very festive and with christmas just around th corner it made me get a move on with sending cards etc! The tree looks better in real life.. these photos dont do it justice! Its very weird not buying you guys back home some christmas prezzies and arranging meals and nights out. Christmas is gonna be hard for all of us here without our families and friends so please keep in touch guys!!

Christmas at Disney

Christmas is really in the air over here!! Its crazy!! Even now im sooo in the mood for christmas and im not the biggest christmas person usually! Disney just have this way of making everything perfect and magical its sooo weird. You walk around the world showcase and each pavillion has (besides Morocco for religous reasons) has its own version of Santa and they act as a storyteller and tell the story of christmas from their own country the Canadian one is a bit random.. hes a lumberjack (!) but the UK is Father Christmas and hes sooo cool i want to hug him all the time!!
When i walk to and form work everyday all you hear around Epcot is christmas music and then at night theres an archway leading to the World Showcase that lights up and has Dancing lights which dance to the Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy. Its awesome!! Every park has a tree they are all awesome. My favourite park for christmas is Disney MGM. It has a show called the Osbourne lights... Based on a family who years back went all out at christmas when decorating their house and then i dont know the full story but the dancing lights actually send shivers down my spine they are sooo perfect! I wish everyone could see it because you would all be in the most christmassy mood ever!!!
Does make me sad that i ont have people at home who i can share christmas with but my friends here are looking after me. 

Fantasmic

Ok so one of the best Disney shows here is Fantasmic! If your a bit of a Disney geek you will love it! Its awesome and really clever! Its basically the story of mickeys wishes and dreams but then those evil nasty villains turn it into a nightmare... naughty villains!! Theres many Disney songs and practically all the Disney characters are in it.. its a must see for anybody visiting!! So if anybody comes to see me you are going!! Theres a pic of Ariel there for Jo and Emma!! xx
