A week ago today

I still can't beleive that a week ago today I was sitting in a hotel conference room hearing a presentation about the ICP program from Jeni, and Shandon. I was sooo nervous and was pretty sure my Disney dreams weren't going to come true.
However, I am constantly having to remind myself that I got the job and in a little under 2 months I'll be working for the mouse!!! I also have to remind myself that school is still going on.
I have soo much work to do I feel like it's never ending- annotated bibliographies, music theory analysis, quizzes, midterms, papers, exams, projects. Sometimes it's gotten to be tooo much and I get super stressed and don't know if I can continue with this school stuff. But I remind myself DISNEY is just around the corner!!! A few more weeks and i'll be in DISNEY!!!

Hope Ya'll are doing well.

Let's go FLY a kite !

So I booked my flight to Disney! I'm so scared and excited all at the same time. I was doubling geussing getting a flight now as I always do because prices of flights rise and fall so much I don't want to wait and pay an arm and a leg but at the same time by not waiting I'm outta luck if there's a cheaper flight later. But I'm going to try not to think about that. I got my ticket and that's all that matters. I leave May 1st at 925 AM! Which means I'll have to leave my house in LaSalle by like 430/5 to make sure I can get my Visa stuff done at the border and what not as well as accounting for bad traffic, airport lines and what have you.

SOOO EXCITING!

However, this excitment is kicking me in the butt, I have so much work to do but all I can think about is Disney.

*Drum Roll Please*

So I definitaly wrote that last post down there V after I knew whether or not I had the job. I just felt it was an integral part of the blog to have that post.

But I GOT THE JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!
Come first week of may I'll be wearing this snazzy outfit








I also found a lovely list circa '98 from this man about why custodial is such a great job- I think I'll share.

10. Sunshine
9. Babe watching
8. You never have a short cash drawer
7. A great tan
6. No need to repeat a script ad nauseum ("Please move all the way to the center of the theater, to allow room for everyone", "Please step away from the monorail door", "Do you want fries and a milkshake with your Pinocchio burger?, "Please do not sit on the lean rails", "Move to the center and remain away from the walls", "Please remember that flash photography is prohibited during the presentation").
5. Guests never ask you to do exchanges.
4. Every time a guest comments about how clean the park is, they are acknowledging your work. 3. You get to see the parade and fireworks whenever you want, even while working.
2. You go to sleep every night knowing you helped the Earth by recycling.
1. You are paid to get a great tan, while smiling, answering guest inquiries, recycling and babe watching.


Sounds perfect!

Face to Face

So I had my face to face on Monday at it was really nerve wracking. What makes me even more nervous are watching these posts on the facebook group. I really want character attendant and tried to convince the person interviewing me (Jeni) of this. But according to the facebook group there is only one character attendant position available.

I was the 3rd person to go, which I thought was very odd as the people from PEI, Manitoba, B.C etc were the ones who were suppose to go first. I got asked mostly about my favourite position ever (like that I've previously held). Why it was my favourite. What would i do if a parent was upset their child couldn't see such and such a character.

I was done by like 11 went to Via hung out with some of the other Westerners, went to Jack Astors, went back and just hung at the hotel we were being interviewed at then Dinner at East Side Marios.

All n all a good experience and I'm glad I had it.
