Separated Skippers

The Love Story of two Jungle Cruise Skippers living 500 miles away

Being away from someone you love for long periods of time is hard. Sometimes you wish that life was like Dinosaur in Animal Kingdom. You want to go back in time and grab the most valuable memories and stay with them for ever. But the thing is, they're just that: memories. You can keep them forever and look back on them, but you've got to move on. If all you do is think about the past, you'll miss out on the present. Enjoy the moments you are having now. Even though being away from each other isn't ideal, it makes you cherish that special someone and the moments you do spend with each other even more. Don't focus on the negatives. Stay positive and be strong. Everything will work in the end. -T

Future World is a place where the imagination can soar. It is a place that features an abundance of creative and endless possibilities. A relationship features the same type of possibilities. The feelings vary. Sometimes you feel like puking (Mission Space), Sometimes you feel like life is flying by (Test Track) and sometimes you just like to hang around and enjoy life (Soarin). Whatever the feeling is for the day, it all culminates into one thing: building your future together (Spaceship Earth)

Like a grand and miraculous spaceship…

Occasionally, it takes something as fear-inducing and drastic as a hippo attack to make you realize what the important things are in life. When the dust settles after you've pulled out your pistol, fired it blindly into the air, and screamed hysterically, you'll see exactly how much damage you've done. That's when you realize that the hippos were just trying to kindly warn you about the attacking natives up ahead. Don't immediately go on the defense. Take time to understand the situation before you react and ease your way into it.

Today involved a lot of crying, a lot of laughing and a lot of fighting, but Like I tell my junior skippers who are afraid in the temple. There is always light, and happiness… and elephants at the end of the tunnel.

Sometimes In a long distance relationship it feels like a rhino has been chasing you all day. It is important to keep moving forward and remember. Every conversation has a point...... In the end!

So here's what happened...

Hello tumblr! I'm T and I am a Skipper at the World Famous Jungle Cruise in Walt Disney World. Whilst working at the Jungle Cruise this past year, I found the love of my life. Unfortunately, we both had to move away from Orlando and back to our respective homes. We now live 500 miles away from each other. My boyfriend, A, and I are trying to rock this whole long-distance thing and decided to start blogging together! This is going to be a blog about our tales of living in Disney World and also all of our adventures to come. We look forward to seeing what tumblr has in store for us!

Until next time,

T
