But is it a bad thing? Nope im rather enjoying it, though im sure my roommates are being driven crazy about my constant talk about Disney and getting really excited every time a Disney commercial comes on.
The other night i had one of those dreams in a dream i dreamed that i missed my flight to Florida but then i "woke up" and noticed it was 11:16 My flight boards at 11:15 and its not like i live right next store to the airport.. When i actually woke up for real i was in a panic until i realized i was still at school and its January...

Transportation update
I am happy to announce that my plane ticket has been bought! i will leave Michigan April 6th! I cannot wait to go
The transportation search adventures
So for awhile i have been trying to think how i am going to make it down to Disney. I live in Michigan so its not a short trip. Originally i was going to take the train down there, better way to see the country and sounds like a fun time. But here is the problem with trains, they are notoriously late so that led to okay so i will leave earlier and maybe find a cheap hotel to stay at that's close to Disney. Seems like a waste of money, so after talking to my mom and having a friend who lives down there and gets to work for Disney (how cool is that?!) offered to pick me up and give me a place to sleep and even a ride to check in. Talk about an awesome friend the air plane won the battle so now here comes the waiting i decided to wait for now to see if the flight gets any cheaper before i go out and buy my ticket.
I have never traveled alone so this should be an adventure in its self I'm nervous but extremely excited to get there. The waiting game continues. A very BIG thank you to Laura (Sparkle) for being so amazing and offering to give me a ride as well as a place to sleep before i check in and get my place! You pick me up and ill buy us some dinner ^_^

Disney College Program Adventure
So around September or August of 2013 i finally decided to go ahead and apply for the DCP. I have been planning on doing this for years. So after talking to my friend who went through the program i went and started the application process. I honestly didn't think i was going to get in but it doesn't hurt to try right? A few days later i get an email that i need to do the survey part of the application. I honestly i thought i wouldn't hear anything from it but surprise! a few days later i get an email to set up my phone interview! I was thrilled! i set up the interview got some great advice from Laura (Sparkle) about how the interview goes and the different types of jobs there are and what i can expect from each job,all about the program and what to expect during the interview. Later i sat down and thought all about what she told me and the questions i wanted to ask. 2 weeks later it was time for the interview i excitedly awaited the call. 2:00 came, no call i began to panic. What if my phone missed the call and didn't ring?! what was i going to do After 15 minutes of panic the phone rings and it was my interviewer. We sat and talked and i asked my many questions. I felt that it went amazingly. Now it was time for the waiting i knew it would take at least 2 weeks if not more but that did not stop me from checking my email. every. day.
It became time for me to move to my new school, that fall was my first term at the new campus Over the summer i had graduated with my Associates and had to change campuses to get my bachelors, but since i was a transfer student i had to go to the Orientation for new students so with help of one of my best friends we packed up her car and started the trek across state to Muskegon but we decided to stop to Grand Rapids to visit an old friend and catch up.
After weeks of nothing it was the weekend my last roommate was moving in i checked my email on my phone before getting out of bed and getting ready for the day. I looked and there was an email from Disney my heart began to race as i clicked it. The very first word was Congratulations! (SQUEEE!) My mouth dropped as i continued reading the email. I had been accepted! i excitedly called Jake (my boyfriend who lives in our hometown, across the state) and told him the news as i read him the email. I couldn't believe it! This dream was coming true this experience i had been dreaming of for 2 years was really happening i was just waiting until i woke up and it was just a dream. but it was real this was really happening! After talking to Jake i called my Mom and told her the news, Called my big brother Chris and sent Mike a text. I could not believe it was happening.
Then i discovered i needed $300.00 within just a few days. I had no source of income. The stress came in i knew my parents could not lend me that much money. Luckily Jake was willing to let me borrow his credit card to pay for it. So thanks Jake! Your the best! Waluigi Loves this!
Finally after days of doing paper work that they sent me i had officially accepted my roll as a lifeguard. Now its time to wait i needed to find a job to pay for my transportation and money to live off of. Thanks to my Chris who had become an ordained Catholic Monk he sent me a very generous check for this trip so now i have the money to pay for it. So Thanks Chris! Your the best
