Update

Hey guys,
I know its sort of been a little while since i last updated this blog. I have been slacking on all blogging fronts. I just finished my american government class at school. Thankfully that it over. i have 4 weeks left of my Chemsitry and then i will be once happy girl with 4 weeks of school left. =] Anyways I know you are not at all interested in my school life. So I just see if i can find things to talk about...

oh, i am going to check in to disney on May 18th and Jessica, was going to move into an apartment with me (wellness since I am not 21) decided she didnt want to risk being termed because of someone having alcohol in the apartment and since she is over 21 i totally understand it. I just feel really bad moving into an apartment and then once i turn 21 which is first move it date move on this person. So i dont know what I am going to do about roommates but Im sure ill figure something out. Im not worrying about it. 

Check in  dinner = I was talking to Jessica (yes, same Jessica and her blog is [here]) and the last few seasons people have done there check -ins at T-Rex or a quick service location. I didnt think T-rex was all that good of a restaurant and it is loud and cold (no thankyou when it is HECKA hot in florida) anyways, so i started looking around and thought that ESPN zone would be a nice alternative. Illuminations is at 9 your with-in walking distance from Epcot at Hollywood Studios. You can take transportation from disney resorts if you are staying property. It is a little less convienent with parking but that is manageable and ESPN zone is more of a sports bar so it is easier to socialize that way. Anyways Hopefully the dinner with be there. i think it is. if you need help with getting there contact me on facebook or on here or email me cbatwdw@gmail.com. anyways. IT should be a fun time. That is on the 17th obviously.
Bryant and I havent made our reservations for hotels but im not to worried there re plenty of places to stay on property and now that transportation is clear and we know we willl have all our stuff im not concerned.
Umm yea. I am still working on my bucket list. If you have anything you might like to suggest just leave a comment.
72 days and counting.

I lost....

I dont really know what exactly to write about. I mean currently I feel like I dont have anything to say. I mean if you guys have anything you want to hear about comment on my formspring or PM me on fb or leave a comment here.

I can write about whatever you want as long as i have the knowledge. I feel stuck. So help me get unstuck. If you ve never been to disney and you keep hearing about stuff but never really get an answer let me know. I just honeslty have nothing to share with you so far. Hopefully something will come up.
Pictures with my purple folder should be up soon and so in the mean time.. if you think of anything contact me. :) thanks followers and readers.

I am still compling my bucket list. and my bucket list is not really a wha ti want to do before i kick the bucket it is more of what would i like to get done before my program kicks the bucket. i guess. but in any case. Seriously let me know cause i have no clue what to discuss with anyone currently.

Accepted

So the process is on hold. I am going to disney world. I recieved the purple email. Which i cant actually share with you sadly because I made the mistake of requesting my emails to be in plain text instead of html text. ops. So anyways. I havent picked my arrival date yet because Bryant and I want to do it at the same time. But hopefully we will get May 18th, 2011. Well i guess it is time to tell you my role. I am in Merch. It wasnt in my top 3 but what do i care im going to disney world. Maybe it will give me the oppertunity to network with someone at disney design (cross your fingers). Anywho. so um yeah. When i interviewed i requested Hollywood Studios. I think that is still what i want but im not really sure I didnt prepare to pick my top 3 merch locations. it gets me all conflustered. So i guess what i am going to do is not be to selective since for merch i can pick up shifts basically anywhere. Oh and the one thing i am glad about it that i will be working with more CP's :) that is something i am lad about. So hopefully I will get studios and we will see where this adventure takes me. Now i am starting to work on my bucketlist. so maybe keep an eye out for that.

Phone Interview.

thats right my phone interview was at 5:00 on friday (officially yesterday) and i will let you know how it went when i hear. until then... i am going to go on a blogging hiatus. I dont want to jinx it and i have anything i really want to talk about. I love disney but there is something that makes me say.. now just sit back and focus on something you can control your grades and just think i will still be in the political science class when i hear back.... so its not that long. 3-4 weeks.

Applications and the Web-based interview

If you call Disney they tell you that Applications for Fall 2011/ Fall Advantage go up in February. That is so helpful right. Well everyone who has called was told February. In 2011 Applications came up on 01/19/11 at approx. 12pm. The application requires... all your basic information about your work experience and then you go to the web based interview. Like everyone says it is really easy. Nothing to fret over. The timed sections you have 50 seconds to answer. They have about 10-15 questions. Those 10-15 questions are reworded about 3-5 different ways. Anyways dont worry. The hardest part is trying to stay focused. But as long as you are consistant i dont see it being a problem.
 Now I called the same day i did my application. When i called they said that they would not be schedule phone interviews until tomorrow at 8:30am. When i called again after learning that bryant had his phone interview the next morning i mentioned to randy,the guy who picked up the phone, that i was under the impression that I could schedule my interview. so they scheduled it. YAY! so at 5pm on friday It is not as nerve recking as people expect. I am so excited the process has begun. :)

BACKPACK

So I know people are really into this whole making t-shirts for their college program experience but this is my thing. Shirts can be really a pain in the butt and what for.... to wear a few dozen times if your lucky over the program. Well here is the deal. I know what one thing people always use during their programs are bags. So i made a mock up. The bags would be about 30 dollars after shipping and everything but my feelings are this... I would rather spend 30 bucks on a bag that i could use more often then spend 15 on a t-shirt. Bags can be used to carry things to work. Can be used to get character signatures. It can be used to carry things around the parks. It can be used to hold your pin collection. It can be used for a lot of really useful things. So in my opinion it makes more since to spend twice as much and get twice if not more uses out of it. If people are not interested I am still making one for Bryant because he seemed interested in the idea. So any ways my idea was to iron on the WDWCP11 on the front part that covers the zipper and then on the side to place your personal initials. If you have used a jansport backpack you know they come in a variety of colors and if people are actually interested Ill work on a clearer idea of what colors are available but this was just me playing around. Disney sells patches for your mickey ears but they will just as easily go on your bag. So yeah. I guess if you are interested let me know. I will probably bring it up sometime in the Disney chat. Message me on facebook i guess. I have no idea how this all is going to work so don't start  asking technical questions. I'm just trying to get an idea of how it is received. Alrighty. Oh on another note you can also use this bag full of your carry on items if you are flying. I think thats all for now. :)

30 Days of Walt Disney World

So i was browsing tumblr and found this...a 30 day survey about Disney World. so with 49 days until applications are up i figure this will be an alright filler of time sort of kind of. so to make this last as long as possible i figure i will do one day everyday Monday- Friday. Which would take me all the way until until January 14th but since well some of those days things will be getting hectic i figure YAY!! it takes me all the way until applications come out.  P.S. All of the photos included come from Matt Pasant's Flickr [here]
