The Final Stretch

Well we're getting near the end people! With only a month left we've decided to kick it into high gear and squeeze everything we can out of this last month, which started with a trip to Universal Studios/Islands of Adventure today with some friends! Of course this was lots and lots of fun and because I'm technically a Florida resident I bought the annual pass and have every intention of going back because it pays for itself after about three times!

Work has been FLYING by! I worked 40.6 hours this week, which is the most I've ever gotten scheduled for, which is crazy to me because my Magic Kingdom friends are getting scheduled for like 50+ hours! Nothing too new to report at work! Yesterday I worked a midday shift, which means I got done at 7:30pm when the park closed at 9:00pm. It was strange to me, CP's normally close. So I decided to ride Expedition Everest real quick after work...lots of fun, as expected.

I'm going to Vegas in nine days, which I am so excited for and then my dad will be down a few days before my last official day! It's crazy how fast it's all flown by, but of course it was expected!

Summer Extension

It had been a month since my Character Performer audition when I finally received an email. They said I would hear back between April 2nd and April 7th and I heard back at 10:09am on the 2nd. I opened up the email and saw it:

So here comes the part that you don't want to hear...I have declined the offer. What an amazing opportunity this has been, and I am so honored to receive it. But it's time for this chapter in my life to come to an end. I need to finish up school, school comes first.

By now you probably want to punch me through your computer screen, I know I would've if I was looking at this from six months ago. But I feel confident that I've made the right decision and happy knowing that.

Last Day of Exploring Disney Heritage

Today was the final day of my Exploring Disney Heritage series. We finally got to learn the winner of last week's Hollywood Studios scavenger hunt...the winner was..........MY TEAM! We all won DCP graduation cap pins, which was really neat! Today was also the day we all received our "Mousters Degrees" for completing the course!

Overall, the course was really fun and I look back to when I stayed up until the wee hours of the morning to register for it in the first place...it was all worth it. The class was fun, informative and I learned a lot about this wonderful company! I definitely recommend it to anyone who is on the fence or even thinking about not taking a course at all! It definitely enriched my program. No homework, no tests, and it was free! It's just another added bonus of the Disney College Program, so you might as well take advantage of the opportunities at hand!
