Stressful period #1... Applying!!

     Every hour seems to get more excruciating!! For those of you who dont know, I applied for the Disney College Program in Orlando, FL yesterday evening, and still no word! I originally thought you had to attend the recruitment meeting, which is still a week away, so im glad i found out that you dont need to go to that so my app is at least already in progress! For those of you who do not know, the DCP (disney college program, duh) is a program that allows college students to spend either 4 or 6 months in either Walt Disney World or Disney Land, working and attending school at Disney University (yes, disney has its own college). You live only with students in the program in awesome dorms that provide a bus that takes you anywhere you need to go. from the store, to the mall, to you job and back home. they provide everything. You work in the park doing certain jobs based on your skills. It is a difficult application process that can take up to a few months but generally a few weeks. It is a very competitive program that MANY people apply for, but only a few make. I have already applied, now im just awaiting the wonderful email telling me i can continue to my web interview! Then from there, i continue to a phone interview and then they decide from there if i am accepted or not. And for those that dont know, i was ACCEPTED for the program 2 years ago for the Merchandise position, but turned it down due to the fact my advisor said it wasnt wise to attend as a freshman. I am praying like CRAZY that i will be accepted again and that they will remember me and accept me due to the fact im even more awesome now than i was then. haha :)

     So here i am, refreshing my dashboard, just waiting for the invite for the first interview. lol. pathetic. Buttt i can at least entertain myself for now on the College Program facebook page andddd the specific Spring Program 2013 page for those people taking part in the upcoming program! So i have already talked to a few potential roomates and people i will be meeting with! interviews have been going on for 2 weeks already (which i was unaware of otherwise id already be done with everything by now) so Ive seen soooo many acceptances already, it makes me so nervous. Most people say they only had to wait a few HOURS after they applied to get their wbi, so im freaking out. just a bit. But ive been accepted before, so i should be accepted again... right? :) cant wait to get things rolling. im so ready for this!! Getting accepted would be the best bday present. its only 2 weeks away... hopefully i get my answer by then!!  :) SOOOO listed below are my TOP CHOICES for my job while down at disney, starting with my number one!

#1: CHARACTER ATTENDANT

this seems like the most fun job you can get while working at Disney. this means, i would introduce all the lil kiddies to the character and speak on behalf of that character. I would be talking in front of large crowds, and be responsible for protecting that character. lots of interaction with people, lost of moving and lots of time outside! PERFECT!

#2. ATTRACTIONS

This job would also be tons of fun! this would include not only operating the rides, but also being spokesperson. for example, the jungle rides through the Animal Kingdom, you would provide the narration. Or if you are working in the pirate theme of the park, you would dress up as a pirate and pretend to be one. doesnt get much better than that :)

#3. MERCHANDISE

Due to my lengthy experience in retail, i think i would enjoy this position! who doesnt enjoy selling souvenirs to happy little kids!! selling those classic Micky ears that kids keep forever: priceless

#4. FULL SERVICE RESTAURANT

And of course, because of my restaurant experience, this has the potential to be very rewarding!! Being able to work in one of the many restaurants in the park!
