Today marks 9 years since the passing of Aaliyah Dana Haughton, the R&B Singer that people have not yet forgotten. They probably never will. It happens when you were as sweet and loving as she was. She would’ve been 31 this year (Jan. 16, 2010) and many believe Ciara, Keri Hilson, Cassie, etc wouldn’t exist if she was still here, but according to her brother Rashad (@Rad_6) she is “still here”. (www.aaliyah.com). She did all she was sent here to do. God makes no mistakes. She’s where she needs to be.

She will always be missed.

Love always,

I wanted you all to meet my co-worker Stitch! You may know him from the 2002 release of Lilo & Stitch! Well that little blue alien has been working in TOMORROWLAND at Walt Disney World. So if you’ve been dying to meet him you know exactly where to go. He has a habit of scaring us workers while we’re ringing people up. He ducks by our guest’s children and pops up and wiggles his hands at us! He’s a little trouble maker but we love him. In TOMORROWLAND everything is Stitch and Buzzlightyear! So you know we’re all about going to infinity and beyond.
Life here, luckily, has gotten easier quickly. I was good by day 3, and really really good by day 6, and now it’s just the working so hard. But as Tam said “That’s life!”. We work hard for little to no pay! Hahaha, but again the DISNEY COLLEGE PROGRAM is all about the experience not buying a new big screen TV and renewing your website you’ve had for 3 years!

I hope everything is going great with you all!

Now…For those of you following me on twitter and constantly asking about Tyra B…you’re not getting an answer. And please DO NOT SAY ‘WELL SUCH AND SUCH SAID’ whatever…because it didn’t come from me or Tyra so why listen to it? No one has any knowledge of anything except that which you see at www.veronicandavis.com!!!

So let’s just clear it up now…

1.) I am NOT required to inform anyone of anything pertaining to any celebrity I converse with on twitter, including Tyra B. I have gotten many tweets since Tyra B started following the twitter page: http://www.twitter.com/TyraNVero_Fan. And even if I was “with” anyone….you wouldn’t know. Jessica Jones (aka TNV Fan) you’re still a sweetheart though, and I appreciate everything you’ve done to help promote my work and hers. We do appreciate you. Don’t ever think we don’t. It’s all about how you word things though. ♥

2.) @veronicaNNdavis is NOT my account! Team VND was the first to discover this account, and you can tell immediately that it isn’t mine! The custom-made background I have on my account cannot be duplicated! THEREFORE THIS ACCOUNT IS NOT MINE! So if they ever tweet you…please be aware  of the “double N’s” for my name is not VERONICA NICOLE NICOLE DAVIS!!!!

3.) I have to thank Kat Graham and Tyra B for supporting my team! I love Team VND! I think Kat is a sweetie! I think Tyra is an amazing person! But that is not why I’m “showing you guys and gals off”! I am doing this because you’ve made my past few months on twitter an INCREDIBLE few months and I have to thank you for that! (MY LOVELY TEAM:::—–> VNDSupporter, VND4ever, QueenofVampsVND, VNDCBGermany_, TyraNVero_Fan).

So twitter family, thank you! I appreciate every single thing you’ve done for me. To take someone who just wanted to hold her on book in her hand, to making her soar so quickly over 1,000 followers on twitter and 20,000 hits on my official site….Thank you! You’ve really gotten me places I couldn’t have gotten alone. Thank you!!!!!!! You and all you’ve done is TRULY unforgettable!

Love Always,

Yeah if you got a Michael Jackson vibe from the title of this entry then KUDOS TO YOU because I am literally workin’ day and night. Not 9 to 5. More like 6 p.m. to 3 a.m. I’m wondering if this is really going to work or not. But I’m giving it time. Seeing what I’m in for. I’m just going through training right now. It’s done August 22nd at 11pm. I’ll be home by 1:30am. It’s tedious…the heat, the guests, it’s all so….robotic. Like you have to be cheery all the time, which is more than doable. I mean I already like seeing people smile back at me and acknowledge me when I wish them happy birthday and engage in conversation. This being my first time at WDW I have to say…it’s going to be hard to find time to even enjoy the attractions…

I guess that’s all I can say that is okay to say to the general public.

OH WAIT!

I’m keeping an optimistic attitude. I mean I keep saying to myself ‘Heat or snow heat or snow’ because that’s the reality. I go back home and it’s below zero. Plenty of people would want the job I have. Plenty did, and didn’t get it. So I’m like…I know I can do this. I’ve already made some cool friends too. We all try to keep our spirits up. (We’re all from Illinois and Virginia). I know if I just keep myself up and look at the positives it’ll be fine. I just have to get used to it, and I will.

….I also need a TV…but that comes when I’m for sure about staying hahaha.

oh oh oh wait….I also loveeeeeeee all the accents. From Austrilia to England I LOVE IT!!!! OMG! SOOOOO WOOO WOOOO LOL! Accents are just……..well ya’ll know! =D Welp….

Until next time,

V.

P.S Donna it kicks major BUTT that you live so close to here. I already met a few of the u-s.net visitors. It’s coolios. If I’m here in December I’m going to meet some fans from Spain.

P.S.S This post won’t be transfered to WWW.VERONICANDAVIS.COM because I will now be posting separate posts. Anyway, take care everyone…

P.S.S.S i love stitch HE IS EVERYWHERE. HIM AND HIS COUSINS. I love itttt. And Stitch is so cool, he’s always dancing and and and being a creeper lol….Take care everyone.

Missing the Chicago family much and uh…Virginia people…yall deep in Orlando. lol. Enjoy your stay. I’ll see you Thursday.

I am OFFICIALLY a Walt Disney World cast member. Today Mickey Mouse gave me my name tag for work! I go in for training Sunday and then Tuesday I officially start work in the MAGIC KINGDOM at TOMORROW LAND! Now keep in mind that this is my first time at WDW and my first look at it was BEHIND THE SCENES. I am not at liberty to tell you about that, but it’s pretty….cool. But yes, I get a backstage pass, and then I come forward to see a magical paradise. I get to see all these characters from the movies I grew up watching, walking right in front of me. It is as magical as people told me it would be EVEN AT 19 YEARS OLD!

But let me back track to Day 1 - my mom was here which was great. You know I come from a close-knit family so having her here alleviated most of the stress that I was under. You know living in Chicago and then coming to Orlando and having so much on my plate was PAINFUL. But my mom reminded me over and over that it’ll work itself out and it would be okay. Everything will be second nature before I know it. She just really put me at ease, which I appreciated and had to make sure she knew. It was wonderful WONDERFUL WONDERFUL to have her here. It really was. I had to be a big girl and not cry hahaha, especially in her presence. Cuz my mom is one of my best friends so of course saying goodbye isn’t easy. I don’t think I’ll be ready to hear my sister’s voices until a week from now.

Time to change the subject.

Day 2 – My mom departed in the early afternoon because I had a meeting…I was tired from lugging groceries upstairs and truly ready to quit ALREADY. Why? Because I was getting bad news left and right that I won’t discuss because it doesn’t matter anymore. I’m going to work it all out. So no worries. Everyone has their good and bad days here and that’s just something I have to accept. Not all things go our way. But in the long run I’m doing this for a good cause. =D

Day 3 – I WALKED INTO WALT DISNEY WORLD AND BEHOLD! THE BEAUTIFUL CASTLE THAT EVERYONE ADORES! It was the most beautiful building I was able to see in the TEN MINUTES I was there. (We were on a schedule, I’ll have my turn to admire it in a few days and take pictures). I woke up at 6 am for this people. I didn’t get home until 1pm. The meeting was THAT LONG. But it was cool. I learned so much that DISNEY owns that I had no idea they owned. And they are just…phenominal. It makes you feel super special to be a part of something so huge.

Something that’s good to keep in mind through it all is…You’re creating magic for millions of people no matter what your role is. To be a part of that…is extraordinary.

Tomorrow morning I will be on a flight to Orlando, Florida. Why? (Why don’t you know hahaha)….I was accepted into the DISNEY COLLEGE PROGRAM a few months back! I will be going to Disney World for 5 months (August 2010 – January 2011)!!! IT’S MY FIRST TIME EVER!!!!!!!!!! I’m excited, but even with my bags packed I still can’t believe I’m going. I’m blown away. I guess I won’t believe it until I’m there.

This is a wonderful experience and opportunity. So I have a plan. Here’s what is going to happen. I will document via photography and blogs what goes on during my 5 month stay alone in Florida. I will be taking many many many pictures and update as much as I can. It’ll be like you all are right there with me! It’s going to be amazing.

Love Always,

V.

I’m preparing myself to look how DISNEY requires all their workers to look: absolutely clean cut!!! It’s tough. It’s so easy for me because I don’t dress slutty, I believe in cleanliness, and I know how to be classy. (Not to toot my own horn, but YOU KNOW WHAT IT IS)! I’ll be back later to talk more, I have some errands to run!
Love Always,
