Nervous!

We saw someone kind of famous today! I don't know her name, but she's on some entertainment show. I think. I'll look into it later.

UPDATE: So I finally looked into it (it's 3/11/11) and her name is Lauren Sánchez. She is a former correspondent from the show "Extra" with Mario Lopez. BAM!

Disney Housing

I must say, the Disney College Program Housing maintenance staff is AMAZING! They have gone above and beyond to make sure every door locks, every window locks, the refrigerator works, and everything else is working the way it should. I am impressed.

UPDATE:

As I began typing the above paragraph, maintenance came knocking at my door to fix a few extra things today. AMAZING!

It's Official!

Today was a pivotal day with the Disney College Program. Everyone woke up early, drove to Team Disney Anaheim, and attended Traditions. Traditions is basically a great "Welcome to the Walt Disney Company! Here is what you need to know." It lasted 8 hours, was completely informative, and at the end, we received our Disney IDs and name tags! I can't describe how awesome it is so see your own face on a Disney ID, and an official Disney name tag with your name and hometown on it. It's like getting your driver's license and realizing, "Hey, I can drive now! Who wants to go on a road trip?!" Definitely a cool feeling.

Of course, the Disney ID has some perks as well. One of which is getting free admission into the parks! My boyfriend, his roommate, and I did not waste time getting some use out of this amazing privilege. I have a feeling this will be a perk I use a LOT.

I'm trying to keep track of the rides I go on during the internship, so here's the list for today!

Disneyland Park:

Space Mountain
Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage
Big Thunder Mountain Railroad

Disney California Adventure Park:

The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror
Soarin' over California
Toy Story Mania

"The time has come!" the Walrus said.

Officially in Anaheim!

Hello Orange County!

I will try very very hard over the next 7 months to regularly update this blog with DCP details. Hopefully it will be a weekly thing, possibly with extra posts here and there.

Time is flying!

I can't believe in less than 2 weeks I will be driving down to Anaheim to start my Disney internship! Time has really flown by... sheesh!

I'm still really excited, but I know that I'm going to miss the comforts of home. I'm going to miss my cozy room, that I have all to myself! I will miss my family too, obviously. It's just going to be a big change!

27 days to go!

So stoked that the Disney College Program starts in only 27 days. I don't really know what to expect, but I am definitely up for the challenge.
