My Arrival to Florida...
Well...it's official I am in Orlando! I am staying at Orlando Vista for two nights, and then on Tuesday we move in. Today had a crazy beginning, I woke up at 9 hoping to get off by 10 but mom surprised me with breakfast, and I didn't finish that until almost 10. After I finished that I was about to leave then I realized I didn't have the address to the hotel, so I went to pick up the sticky note I had put on the table with the hotel name and it was gone! I looked up several hotels and finally called one that I was pretty sure was correct, but when I called he said I did not have a reservation there. My mom and I continued to look for hotels that looked familiar and then she decided she would give the same hotel a call.....to only be told I didn't have a reservation. At this time I was freaking out ( mom had finally calmed down) and I was running an hour behind when I planned to leave. Finally, Mom found the sticky note and guess which hotel it was? the one we had been calling! So, mom called one more time to tell them we had a reservation number, and at this time the guy decided to tell us that they had changed their system recently and that is why my reservation didn't come up. UGH So, I was finally about to get on the road when I got into my car only to have my cat jump out of my mounds of clothes and knock my computer cord into my tea.....I figured I should just go to bed and start again, but Mr. Thomas dried it off and got it working and I was off! I stopped at the Georgia and Florida rest stops (Had to get that free orange juice), and got food and gas at some town outside of Jacksonville. It took about 7 hours to get here and I arrived to the hotel around 6:30 and checked in nicely. Its nice, other than the fact you have to be in the lobby to get on the internet, and its kinda sucky there anyway. Tomorrow, my roomie, Jordan, and I are suppose to hangout downtown before I pick up my other roomie, Emily, from the airport. Finally, the big day is Tuesday MOVE IN DAY! This is when we will meet our other roomie Laura. Jordan is from Colorado, Emily is from Wisconsin, and Laura is from California so we are from all parts of the US, im excited to see how we all get along! Well, im off to the room to get some shut eye. Night
