Finally Got My Postcard

To follow the trend of all my other interactions with the Disney College Program, I figured I'd just go check the mail today and low and behold, I got my postcard today! I'm super surprised because some people have been waiting MONTHS to get their's and here I am getting mine in eleven days! Thanks for pulling through Disney!

I'm sure I've said it before, but I'll say it again, it does NOT seem real that I will be moving to Florida in 65 days. I guess this postcard just makes it a little more real.

 

Everything Happens For A Reason

In a previous post I mentioned how I had another offer I would find out about on Sunday (tonight) and I was worried what would happen if I got it and still had not heard back from Disney. Well tonight I found out that I didn't receive that other offer. While I'm sad that I didn't receive the other offer I can't help but hope that it's because somewhere in the near future I will receive an offer from Disney. I am a firm believe in the whole cliche, "everything happens for a reason."

I was really stressed out about who I would have to let down if I received both offers and now I get to focus only on Disney. While I'm nervous that applying so late will hurt my chances, it's nice knowing that I will find out in at least 12 days, if not sooner! I've heard that some people during this application process had to wait seven weeks!!!! I would die if that was the case. Hoping for the best and constantly checking my email!

 

Happy Halloween-Still Waiting

According to the Facebook page, applications closed yesterday, which makes me really happy however it just reminds me how late in the game I applied-not how I pictured my application process going when I saw myself applying!

In my desperate state I figured I'd reach out and get some thoughts from the Facebook page. As each day goes by, I'm trying to learn to calm down about the whole situation and just let what is supposed to happen, happen.

I need to start learning to make myself busy in a productive way, not just scouring Google to see how long others waited to get accepted. Deep breaths.

Reason For Being So Antsy

Two days since my phone interview and like everyone else out there who has been waiting, I'm getting antsy. I shouldn't be complaining. According to the Facebook group, there are people who have been waiting since September, they haven't gotten pended, no updates, they're just waiting.

The reason why I'm getting so antsy is because I have another offer I'll hear about on Sunday and I have to decline or accept it on that day. Granted, I might not even get the other offer, however I would hate to turn it down if I got it and then not get accepted to the Disney College Program as well.

Suddenly I'm feeling not so special. I mean, really, who am I to hear back so soon while others have been waiting weeks? I know I'm being ultra negative right now, but I'm just trying to be realistic about my circumstances.

 

The Waiting Game

It has been 26 hours since my phone interview. I know I'm not going to hear a day later, however I can't help but jump every time my phone vibrates. It makes it really hard to focus on anything else, which of course isn't helpful because I am, first and foremost, a student.
