    and its just not going very well for me
    and i have some sort of work meeting 2moro

    Anyways
    with our hard earned wages
    whats everyone thinking of spendingaged on..
    i know people have discussed this

    im so so soo thinking of a universal studios annual pass.. but dont wanna get on if no one else is.. Loner :(
    Im also going to buy most my clothes there! :) Some sort of obsession with the stupid factory and A&F :]]
    Also many rounds of mini-golf.. as well as merchendise from the parks..

    Im not bothered about coming home with much money in the end of it all.. im going for the experience.. i'd probably do it for free.. so i dont mind if a blow all my wages away
    as long as i have fun! :)

    What do you all think? :) xxx

    I'm still trying to figure out how much we're likely to make in a year. If you take $7.75 as the wage estimate and base it on 35 hours a week. In a year that works out at just over $14,000 plus once you go into tips service you'll be getting TONS more money dispite the basic wage being about $4. BUT you've then got about $150 a week for food and rent which over a year costs around $7000 :D

    Not bad, but i'd like to come home with a couple of thousand in my pocket too

    In terms of spending money, I'm going to buy an annual Universal pass with money at Home rather than my Disney wage as $200-$270 is a big chunk of money gone. Trips to other parks and Orlando Magic games i'll pay on the day with what money i do have

    drugs. drugs and hookers.









    haha only kidding of course, i bet that makes me sound like a right weirdo!!!
    yeah i'd like to come back with some money, but i suppose as long as i can have fun out there that's the main thing, as i'm not doing this for the money!
    in short, my answer is: other theme park tickets, sports games, and maybe even a few beers ;)

    Annual pass for Universal, Sea World, Aquatica, Busch etc. Any wrestling/MMA shows in the area, a tonne of sneakers, any sports events I can get to (work permitting), partying, car hire & strip clubs! That sounds like a pretty dope year!

    Annual pass for Universal....cool disney stuff that I don't already have....all the disney parties (pirate and princess, June 3rd! Come join me), erm, a bike and roller blades according to Jo, and stuff! Just stuff in general.

    I'm also going to put away $50 a week (in the weeks I can afford to!) to take home.

    I'd also like to go to Disneyland.

    Ooooh and going to see musicals and ballets!

    We're not allowed bikes I think I read in the T&C's on the housing form. Or skateboards which sucks...they are apparently 'weapons'! The only person I've ever injured with my board is myself!

    I don't think we're allowed to ride/use them in the complexes....but if we can't have bikes, I'll go for roller blades instead! Not that I can rollerblade lol. Shall need all the protection as well!

    I have to admit, I really really really want to go to NYC.

    And yes, we need some wheels.

    i love how in the space of two posts we had both "strip clubs" and "musicals and ballets".
    i'd love to go to NYC, but there's also a fair few other places i have not too distant family and need to visit

    Im with you on the mini golf, NYC and original Disneyland ideas - original Disneyland being high up in my priorities!
    Im going to save what i can, but not miss out on things because i 'wont have anything left at the end of it all', as i do that too much here in the uk at the moment, i want to live again! :)

    Depending on costs and how much money i save during the year, I'm already planning to travel after the Disney Program. It's either going to be NYC or where i've always wanted to go.....LAS VEGAS.

    Nothing set in stone and i'm not going to spoil my year in Disney by saving every scrap of change i can throughout the year and cut back on spending. I want to enjoy this experience more than anything and going to make sure that happens firstly.

    Is anyone else planning to order their Universal Annual pass before they fly out to Orlando or are you all just going to buy once you arrive?

    I looked into ordering it online before I go out but you need an address. I do indeed now know the address though so may get it out the way.

    You know how you are all about Disney i.e. for you its the most amazing place ever and its your happy place? Well I haven't been to Disney yet (as you all know) so my current equivalent is NYC. I LOVE it there!!!!!!!!! If I was told I had to work in a shop forever, but that I could do it in NYC..... I'd be gone!! :D So if anyone fancies a trip up there while we're there, money and time permitting...... I'M THERE! ;D

    I don't think it's for posting them. You print off an e-ticket which you then exchange for the pass on your first visit. I would assume your address is on the pass.
