Random Personal Post
Two of my 3 roommates are in Long Distance Relationships, and both of them seem to be having problems, most of which stem from all 4 of them (both roommates and their respective boyfriends) having different expectations for their relationship now that they’re apart. One of them seems to be acting as though he doesn’t even have a girlfriend now that she’s in a different state,...

All I have for you today is a List:
Space Mountain Tea Cups Philharmagic It’s a Small World Splash Mountain Pirates of the Caribbean Jungle Cruise Magic Carpets Haunted Mansion Peter Pan’s Flight This has been a list of the rides/attractions my roommates & I went on during our 5 hours at Magic Kingdom yesterday. We never waited more than 15 minutes in line, and only used 1 fastpass. (Some of those ride...

Ears have been earned!
I had my assessment today at work, and then worked my first shift without a trainer…which led to me having a 12 hour work day. That was tons-o-fun. I got to take the red “earning my ears” ribbon off of my nametag though, so that was nice. Also I got a free Mickey bar. That was basically the highlight of my whole day. Since my last update I have…gone to Animal Kingdom...

Everything is Obama's fault (but not really)
Yesterday was he SOPA blackout and the day before I worked till 8 and was tired when I got back. I just wanted naptime. Not a whole ton happened, except that we found out that OBAMA was coming to Magic Kingdom. We were actually kinda upset when we realized that WE couldn’t go to MK on our day off. 2 of my other roommates are off today, too. So we watch it live. We were really cool with his...

So while it looks like I skipped yesterday, I actually didn’t… I wrote up a blog about having started training for the Imagination attraction, and how long of a day it was, and how tired I was when it was over…I worked from 11:15-20:00. It doesn’t sound that bad, but it sucks because when you include all of the bus riding & whatnot you’re gone for nearly 12 hours....

I’m online in the middle of the day for the first time in far too long. I had to be up early again to be at Epcot by 8 am. We took this little tour of the park looking at the places where we’re be working and learning things about the park and whatnot. We also rode Spaceship Earth and took the ferryboat around the world. Where else but Disney do they have you go on a ride in the...

Don't do that; THAT IS A GUN.
So I’ve gotten into this weird schedule where I only get to be online for a few minutes post-shower/pre-bed when I check my email/facebook & write this tumblr. It was another long day of taking lots of pictures which I’m still not sharing. I had Traditions this morning, which technically started at 8. We learned a lot of interesting things & got to go backstage at Magic...

Free day was still busy...
I feel like this blog is so boring right now; just huge blocks of text and no pictures or anything fun. I’ve been taking plenty of ridiculously touristy pictures, as is my wont, but I just haven’t gotten around to uploading any yet. They’ll probably go up the first day I don’t have to be up at the crack of dawn…which is not now. My alarm is currently set for 5:45...

Check-in day: OVER
Another LONG day. Got up early & met my roommates in line. We got a 2-bedroom in Vista Way. All my roommates seem pretty chill, which is so nice. Hopefully we won’t have any problems. Casting took forever, but I get to work in EPCOT (Future World West), which is pretty damn awesome. We had lots of welcome things and got a TON of information thrown at us (I feel like a sponge...

Flew down to Orlando today; Checking in tomorrow...
It’s late and I’m tired and I don’t have much interesting to say, but I feel like I should write something. I finished packing early this morning, and my dad & I were out of the house by 9. The airport wasn’t busy, so we ended up being there way early. Our flight left at 12 and landed here at 2:30. It took us awhile to get the rental car and drive to the hotel &...

I fly to Orlando in a week.
I’ve hit the point where “I’m going to Disney World for 4 months! This is so exciting!” has given way to “I’M MOVING TO FLORIDA FOR FOUR WHOLE MONTHS IN ONE WEEK. THIS IS TERRIFYING.” I hate this point.

Guess who's still looking for DCP Roommates?
I posted a couple of those roommate surveys on facebook, but didn’t get much response, because those groups are so flooded with those things. If any girls arriving on January 11th who are over 21 see this, feel free to send me an ask or something. Can’t hurt…

So I’m really bad at remembering who I’ve told what, between all my groups of friends, and my family, and my various websites, which leads to some groups hearing the same thing 5 times, and another group never hearing it at all. When something is on my mind a lot, I tend to actually talk about it less, because if I were to talk about it as much as I think about it, it would be the...

So Far:
I’ve been planning to apply to the Disney College Program for Spring 2012 for awhile now…probably well over a year. I’ve only been telling people about this for about a semester. So, I was on the email list to get notified as soon as the application went up, and I applied right away. Then I got really busy, and it took me a few days to complete the Web-Based Interview. But...
