5 months

Exactly 5 months until I move down to Disney! Last week I spent my Spring Break in Florida, a few days visiting my best friend at UCF, a few days at Disney, and a few days in Daytona. I always loved the state, but the trip made me even more excited to move down there and explore it more.

The days we spent at the parks, at the resorts, and Downtown Disney, everytime I saw someone in merchandising, I would think "that could be me!" There are so many possibilities and I absolutely can't wait to find out where I'll be.

I've also begun thinking about where I want to live. Vista, Chatham, or Patterson. I think I could easily be happy in any of the apartments, but since I do get a choice, I want to consider my options. I heard that Vista is the party complex, Patterson is also becoming a party complex, and Chatham is the quiet one. I also know that Vista is the oldest/cheapest, so Chatham and Patterson are nicer, with Patterson being nicest and most expensive - but the rooms are a little smaller and without a bus stop.

Chatham is the only one I have actually seen, because my sister and friends lived there on their program. Everyone I know who has lived there has loved it. I like to party - but only occassionally, not excessively. I'm 21 so I'd be going out, too, rather than always partying in the apartments. Especially since I'm sure I'll be tired from work, I might want to escape the party scene and have my quiet time at home. I'm leaning towards Chatham but would love other feedback.

Where is everyone thinking of living? What made you decide?
