Blizzard Beach & Typhoon Lagoon

I've been to Disney more times than I can count, but still have yet to go to either of the water parks! Some trips, we didn't have enough time, and others, the weather just wasn't water park weather. I've always wanted to go to both!

This time, now that I'll be living in Disney, I want to go to both Blizzard Beach and Typhoon Lagoon. Some of my friends chose Blizz as their favorite and other chose Typhoon. I guess the only way to pick my favorite is to visit both!

Which one is your favorite???

Give Kids The World

As I mentioned in a previous post, I'm gonna use my blog to post some of the things I want to do most during my time at Disney. One thing at the top of my list is volunteering with Give Kids The World. The purpose of Give Kids The World is to "provide memorable, magical, cost-free experiences to children with life-threatening illnesses and their families."

One of my friends has volunteered with GKTW before and it is truly something I want to be able to volunteer with when I am down there. Disney is a huge part of my life and I have been fortunate enough to have taken many trips down there and now be living and working there. For these children, a trip to Disney is not only just a wish, but possibly one of the last times they will be able to form memorable and enjoyable trips with their families. It is essentially Make A Wish at Disney. I know there are opportunities specifically for CPs to participate and I am hoping to be a part of the Magic!

What am I gonna do now? I'M GOING TO DISNEY WORLD!

I officially graduated college this past Sunday. It's so crazy that this chapter of my life has officially been closed and the next has begun. Although I still have to get through summer, the next big step in my life is the DCP. Of course everybody hopes to get a full time real job when they graduate from college, I am so enthusiastic about being part of this experience. I think participating in the program now is a perfect time and I couldn't be happier that when people ask me what I am going to do now, I can tell them "I'm going to Disney World!!!"

endings & beginnings

I haven't updated this in a while - my apologies! I have been incredibly busy these past few weeks with school work, but now that the sleepless nights have ended I can officially say I'm done with college! I don't graduate until May 16th, but I'm essentially done. It's so crazy to think that I have completed this phase in my life, but I can't wait for what is to come.

It seems as if all the acceptances/rejections have been received. I have gotten to know quite a few people and everyone seems so great & so passionate about working for Disney. Although I am sad that there are a few people I have talked to that were rejected, I am looking forward to enjoying this experience with all of those who have been accepted.

It's not quite complete - I'm sure I'll continue to think of things - but I have begun to make a list of things I have never done and HAVE to do during my time at Disney. The list (or what I have of it so far) will be posted soon - so look out for that!

What is on everyone's list of things they HAVE to do during their time at Disney??
