The Countdown Drags On

Only 30 more days till my mom and I drive down to Florida!
Only 34 days until I check-in at Vista Way for the program!

So as the days drag on classes begin to draw to a close. Last minute assignments become a part of my daily routine. Preparing for finals exams has begun even though they are still about two weeks away. Only three weeks until I take my last exam and begin to pack up my apartment.

I am getting so psyched for Disney but I have told myself I can't start packing yet so that I don't make the wait worse on myself. Once that last exam is taken that's when I can start to pack and freak out as everything comes full circle. And once I get my hair cut on May 20th thats when things will truly become official. From that point on I will be packing up the car and preparing for the 13 hour drive down to Orlando.



BRING IT ON!!!!!!!!!!

A Little More Information

Okay so this is a blog I created so that people can follow my adventures while working at Walt Disney World as part of the Disney College Program. I will try and write at least a little bit everyday. Some days you may get more information than others. Here is a little background of what has happened so far and what is planned.

So I have been planning on doing this for a while so when they opened up the application for Fall I jumped right on it. I watched the e-presentation on January 16th and called to schedule my interview. I had my interview on January 29th after classes. After my interview I waited until February 20th when I received my b-e-a-utiful purple folder in the mail at my apartment. I proceeded to call my family freaking out that I was actually going to Disney.

Job: Lifeguard
Check-In Date: May 27th

The Waiting Game Continues

The semester is beginning to draw to a close. There are only 4 weeks left until the end. It seems as if professors are just realizing how close it is and suddenly they have all these things we need to do. Most days I feel like ripping my hair out but I just think that once it ends I'll only have 1 week left until I leave.

So in 37 days I leave for Florida for 8 months. And 41 days until I check in to the Disney College Program. I will be a lifeguard there and am very excited to see where I will be working.
