So a lot has changed since my last blog entry.

I no longer work at the Disney Store. While I was working for the Disney Store it was owned by the same company that owns The Children's Place. Well that company went bankrupt and wanted to sell all the Disney Stores back to the Walt Disney Company. They managed to sell all the stores back, but once we were owned by Disney again, they made the decision to close 101 stores. And mine was one of them. It was horrible when we were in liquidation. It sucked because we were like a family there, and it was forcing us to move on and move away from each other. My store closed June 7th.

After the store closed, I started working full time at Macy's in their Junior's department. I liked it at first, but then everything started to go downhill and fast. I wasn't trained properly and I would get yelled at for things that I never learned or was never told about. I was treated like I didn't matter in the company and like they were more concerned about making money than they were about me.

The first week in July, my entire cast from the Disney Store and I took a vacation to Walt Disney World Resort in Florida. It was great. It was nice to be back together again and it was my first time at Disney, so my fellow cast members made it a vacation to remember for me. I had to amazing magical moments. The first one was after seeing the High School Musical 2: School's Out show at Hollywood Studios. I was so excited that I started crying when the show ended. And the second one was at Magic Kingdom when I got to meet Ariel. She is my favorite Disney Princess, and I was in complete awe.

One the drive to the airport to leave for Florida, one of my lead cast members dared me to call Walt Disney World and set up an interview for while I was on vacation. So I did.

AND NOW I AM WORKING AT THE MAGIC KINGDOM! I WORK AT WALT DISNEY WORLD RESORTS IN FLORIDA! WHOO! I am completely living the dream right now. I moved down to Florida the end of July, with the lead cast member (Samantha) who dared me to call and get an interview. I work on Mainstreet USA in the shop called the Emporium. Sam works in Tomorrowland. We are having the best time ever. I love my job!!

And as for Macy's..I put in my resignation the day I came back from my vacation. And then I told everyone what was on my mind, and how I was so upset over the way I was treated.

The hardest part about moving away from home is that I really miss everyone. Mainly my godchildren. I miss seeing them all the time. And they don't understand why I left, just that Aunt Erica isn't around anymore. And I miss my kitty. I wasn't able to bring her with me, and it hurts to have to live without her.

But for the first time I know I am where I am supposed to be. I love my job and I love the way my life is going right now!

I had this insane urge to update this blog. So much has been going on and I just don't know where to begin. Ok... here I go.

I managed to find a job, even though its only part time and I don't get a lot of hours. But the good thing is that I am in love with this job and it makes me really happy. I find myself actually excited to go to work. I have been there for about a month now. I'm a Cast Member at the Disney Store!

I turned 23 on February 27th. I had a High School Musical themed birthday party. Why you ask? Because no only is High School Musical just about the best movie(s) ever. But Zac Efron is HOTT! And because I thought it would be fun to have a kids themed party. And I had a blast.

I have stopped looking for jobs in NYC for the time being. I figured that since I am working at the Disney Store for now, I should just worry about that and focus on getting my experience that I need. I have also applied for a full time job at Macy's in their Visual Merchandising department, but have yet to hear anything about it.

I challenged myself to read 50 books this year. I am currently four chapters away from finishing my 17th book. God I'm awesome.

GREAT NEWS! I am a god mother again! My godson Trenton was born on March 10th, 2008 at 8:07am. He is the cutest little boy I have ever laid eyes on. Between him and my goddaughter Teala I have been busy. I love spending time with them. The more I am around Teala, I can tell that she knows who I am and that she loves to see me. That makes me feel like a million bucks. I can't wait til Trenton gets older and he starts to do the same thing. I would go to the ends of the world for these two little kids! Everytime I am around them it makes me feel like I am on top of the world that I am able to be in their lives. It definitely puts life into perspective.

The special friend that I mentioned in my last blog that I had been talking to a lot.. well that is pretty much over. Well we are still friends for the most part, but he has been really shady lately so I have been trying to distance myself from him. I don't need anymore drama in my life, especially from a guy.

I'm in the process of planning another trip to NYC with my roommate from college Kady. We are going to the city for one night so that we can see Rent once more before it leaves Broadway on June 1st. I am really looking forward to this trip. I need to get out of small town NY and I need to be in the city for a little bit. It will also be nice to spend some time away from my house and college with Kady. And of course I am glad that I am going to be able to see Rent once more. I was so sad when I found out that it was leaving Broadway.

That is pretty much it for now. I might get the urge to update again soon, can't really promise anything. Hope everyone is doing well!

I haven't been around tv.com much since I left college. And it is not because I am super amazing and have a life or even a job. It is because I'm just plain sick of the site. And I have other more thrilling things to occupy my time. And it all comes back to I am sick of feeling like my opinions are worthless when I post in the boards. I will put my energies to work in places where I will be appreciated thank you.

I met a new friend. And I have been helping him with his Podcast. Which includes me writing lyrics to theme songs, and emailing hundreds of people a day to see if they are interested in listening. Oh and did I mention that I am going to be a guest host next week. I'm hella excited!

I have also been going through yet another battle with my depression. I feel useless because I am no longer a college student. The only thing I have ever known has been taken away from me. I don't want to be an adult. But here I am being forced to get a job and be one.

And speaking of jobs. I can't find one. Well that isn't entirely true. I have an interview tomorrow. But its for a job I am not sure that I even want. But I am getting to the point where I don't want to sit around the house anymore, and the fact that I have no life or no friends is starting to make me even more depressed.

So that is what my life has been like lately. Not really a fun place to be. If I could, I would take a vacation from being me. But sadly that isn't possible.

Can't promise that I will be posting many more blogs. But I just wanted to let everyone know why I haven't been around.
