I got accepted!!

Okay, so this is my first time doing a blog in a very long time so it might take me a while to get back in the hang of things. Anywhoo, as my first post I want everyone to know this is completely for Disney purposes, this is where everyone can find me to find out about Disney and it's college program through my eyes!

I applied to DCP in May but did not make it past the web based interview :( so I reapplied in October passed the web based and got my phone interview two days later! A week after my phone interview I got an email telling me that I had been excepted, now I'll be honest, my first reaction was a scream and then I cried. Yes yes, how nerdy of me! But it was such a shock and an honor to be accepted, it actually was a dream come true. I had hoped for Attractions, Vacation Planner, or PhotoPass but my fourth choice was Merchandise and that's what I got! I can't wait to find out which park I have been placed in, I wish there was a way I could suggest an area where I'd like to work. I'd LOVE the France area of Epcot or maybe somewhere in Animal Kingdom. But really, any spot is great. It's DISNEY!

I still have so many questions that will take forever to be answered, especially since most of them I won't find the answers to until I get there on JANUARY 10TH! I applied for just the Spring program, so I'll arrive January 10 and depart May 13th. Being four hours from home will be a very large change for me. I've always been within thirty minutes of home and from my animals. ( I have two Dachshunds, a horse, and two cats.) I think that's what I'm most nervous about, is just leaving them behind and not having them around like I'm used to. But I'm sure since I'm only about four and a half hours from home I'll make time to go see them at least once a month.

I'm on the lookout for a roommate, someone who wants to live in a wellness apartment, doesn't party alot, and doesn't expect to have boys in our room all the time, the only reason I mention this is because I've dealt with that kind before, and my boyfriend doesn't like it ;) and it makes me very uncomfortable.

Well, I think that's all I have to update about right now. If I think of anything else I'll add to it.

Countdown til my arrival: 90 days!
