Update x2

Hi everyone! It’s been a while since my last post. A lot has happened, all good things I promise. Well, the pumpkin race has passed. It was our most successful one to date! We sold over 600 kits worldwide & a majority of those I shipped! Later that day, I went with my aunt to Douglas, Michigan, for their adult Halloween party. It was excellent & was worth me being tired. I was tired because I worked the pumpkin race from 11 am to 2 pm & earlier that day because I knew it would be a fun & exciting day I woke up early, so I was definitely tired. Some people go all out & do giant, elaborate costumes, crazy makeup & special effects. It was a sight to see. There was a giant pumpkin mascot that moved around. Ten people carried him around. It was so cool to see how it moved & glided so effortlessly around the parade site. After that was Thanksgiving & Christmas. Thanksgiving is not my favorite holiday; way too much food, but spending time with family is worth all the heavy food in the world. For Christmas, my parents gave me a trip to Florida to go to Disney World & Harry Potter World. It was the best gift I could’ve ever received. My aunt took me. It was from February 22- February 25. We had a great time. Visiting Disney makes me feel like a kid again, which is always warranted when visiting a place like Florida. I went to Magic Kingdom & rode on several rides with the help of Disney’s Disability Pass.

We stood in line for 10-15 minutes compared to standing for 30-45 minutes. That alone was well worth it. Some of the rides were over an hour or more long. Did I mention that the disability pass can be used in all 4 Disney parks? How smart & economical is that? In Harry Potter World, the disability pass was a lot more per person & you had to buy two different ones for BOTH parks, which is crazy. We didn’t get the Disability pass at Universal, but I was just there to explore the places that I STILL read about, play all of the video games & finally get to experience it all on my own time. In total, we walked about 30,000 steps in 2 days. Needless to say, when I got back home, I was knocked out for a good three days. My legs felt like they were going to fall off.  The next day that I returned, I went to work & almost collapsed at my desk. I was so tired. It was such an incredible trip & I was lucky enough to be able to go.
