Congratulations
With the passion you have for all things Disney it would have been criminal if you didn't get in. And in Concierge too - you'll be perfect. Your trip reports have been so educational (and enjoyable of course ) to those of us who can't go so often, and with those resources to be available to guests at Disney, I can't think that anyone would be more suited. Who knows, maybe we will need to call on your services whilst we're there in February.
I hope you have a wonderful time.
Congratulations!!! You're going to be a Great CM!!!
Are you going to start a blog so we can all read about your college program experience? It's like one big trip report.
Looking forward to your October trip report too!
It's too bad that this trip report is almost over.
Congratulations, Jess!! So happy for you and looking forward to hearing all about your DCP experiences. I'm also sad this report is almost over, but it has made me super excited for our trip next month, so thank you!!
Jess -
I am so VERY excited for you. If anyone deserves to work at Disney it would be you. Your passion and enthusiasm is apparent. I can't wait to hear all the new memories and stories that will happen next year. 2013 will be a great year for you. How awesome would it be to make magical moments happen for other guests now? Looking forward to your October report.
Allison
CONGRATULATIONS!!!
(I said it on instagram but this is much better )
This is such an amazing opportunity and it's wonderful that your dream has come true! You're going to do a wonderful job and I can't wait to read all about it! I will be there in May, maybe we will see each other :
I'm sad the report is almost over but I have to say this has been one amazing trip report! Some much fun, beautiful photos and awesome Disney facts! Thank you for letting us all in on it! :
Congrats on the DCP! That is so awesome! I knew that they would choose you, and obviously they KNEW that they were getting a real resource because they said yes so quickly to you! AHH I'm so happy for you!
First of all, even though I already said it on Twitter, CONGRATULATIONS!! You are going to have an amazing time, I just know it!
That park map thing is brilliant! I mean, who else would think of something so awesome as to coat the maps with a plastic that helps you remove gum? Only Disney!
Last nights are so sad! But I can't wait to read about how your October trip went!
Wow, Jess! That is soooo fantastic that you got concierge, congratulations!!!!! When do you find out what resort you will be at? That really is a dream come true, and you deserve it!
Great update!
Congrats on getting onto the DCP!!! So excited to hear about it!!
I also found out yesterday that I got to the final interview for the Summer International College Program!!! I'm going to Disney headquarters in London on the 26th Ocotber to have an interview with Disney representatives Im so excited!!!!
Ahhhhh this is just the greatest thing. Ever. We have already talked about it so much so I will just move onto your update but basically I just have to ask, when you are CEO of Disney World, can I live at the Poly? Hula Timon too? We thank you in advance.
There is a SUBWAY under the Magic Kingdom???? LOL. Oh my God. Why would you eat at Subway when there are so many delicious things at the MK to eat? Really now.
YAY, you got to meet up with Joni! I swear it's so true... I was lost before the DIS. I mean, I knew tons about WDW from my trips and books, but I didn't know that much about the resorts or the restaurants and I had NO Disney World obsessed friends!
AHH your food of the day. I can't believe I will be eating Le Cellier food in 8 days!!! ARE YOU KIDDING ME.
That's sounds like a pretty amazing last night!! So many tidbits of information about Disney! I'm glad to know there's a subway down there haha, I knew there was a "mousketeria" but wasn't sure how much healthy stuff there'd be, and subway counts as healthy, right? Lawl.
I love that cinderella jumper! Super cute!!
Joni seems awesome! I know I've read (at least some) of her TR, glad you guys got to finally meet, disboards are great for that, so is tumblr. I'm definitely one of those people who sometimes likes my internet friends better bahaha!
Again, congrats on the DCP! I'm super excited for ya, and I'll definitely be seeing you in Jan, and maybe Feb/March! Who knows, maybe I'll hear good things and end up being there for a year too!!
Will you do a TR for your time down there/the highlights of it?
Whoooooo, congratulations! Concierge is supposedly a really difficult role to get too, which makes it doubly exciting!
I'm doing Spring Advantage too, and I'm so utterly excited. It's making it hard to focus on classes!
Congratulations on being accepted into the DCP and working in Concierge. You're going to be great and it's going to be amazing experience for you to gain.
Eeek, I am doing a CP starting in January too! I hope I run into you at some point! I commented on one of your TRs a while ago about the CP and that we might end up there the same semester and we will! I can't wait for the adventure to begin!
Congrats for such a great offer and getting to live at WDW!! So can't wait to hear how it is to live out our dream. I bet it's the most amazing experience to live. Makes me wish I was a young lady and had this kind of experience too.
Thank you so much! I have heard that... which makes me even MORE unbelievably excited about the role!
Are you really? What role did you get!? And oh girl, I know. I can't wait to get going!!
Disneyfreak508 said:Ahh congratulations! What role did you get? Haha I think I remember that, actually! Yes, hopefully we will run into each other when we are down there! That would be so cool! I can't wait either!!!
Photopass! I'm a photography major so it's pretty much right up my alley. I love photographing people so much!
Congratulations again. I tried to get in the CP. I forgot I had a 15 yr old daughter in all the excitement. So when they called for my phone interview I had to tell them I couldn't do the CP. I was so sad that day lol. I am going to work there one day I swear. Like I said on twitter, we are going in February so we will have to have a Dismeet
I don't have a lot of time today... I know that I don't post a lot in your TRs, but I do read and follow along... I just wanted to tell you how proud I am of you and how excited I am for you!!! How AMAZING!!!
I wish I could meet up with you while you are a CM, but unfortunately, we are not going until October, so you will be gone by then.
I sure hope you decide to do a blog of your experiences, and again - I am so very happy for you!!!
D~
Congrats again! The frumps will have more of an excuse than ever to get together at WDW.
The info about the Magic Kingdom is so cool. I thought it was hilarious that there's a Subway down below!
CONGRATS!!!!!! I am SO happy for you, Jess!!!
I LOVED all of the MK facts. Those updates were really cool!
I am beyond excited for you having been accepted to DCP!! And I agree with PP, you are probably going to be the #1 DIS meet for all DISers while you're there! haha
I'm doing attractions and arriving January 22nd! I'm only Spring (for right now, I might extend once I'm there!) I'm not sure about Spring Advantage but the only dates in January left when I chose mine about a week ago were the 21st, 22nd, 28th, and 29th. For some reason Concierge and Attractions can only choose certain dates for arrival but I think all of those worked. I noticed that if you chose the 21st, you left a week earlier than the 22nd...so I'll take the extra week please and thank you! Plus it worked out perfectly with January room discounts for staying the night before check in. So that's in 100 days from today, eek! Luckily I have a December WDW trip to tide me over. I'm planning to write a TR for that to handle the excitement in between the trip and checkin haha. I just can't wait to hear where I'll be working! I know it will be a lot of fun, even if it's something super frumpy like Universe of Energy haha.
Yay!! Jess I am so happy for you. You are going to be the best CM ever. I can't wait to find out what resort you will be at. -Amanda
Again, Congratulations Jess! You definitely deserved it. I wish I was going back down in the coming year, but I know for a fact my next trip back won't be until 2014. It also would've given me a reason to visit the Grand Floridian (besides just looking around). I'm hoping I get as much luck as you did with getting into the program on your first try.
Wow, those are a lot of facts Ryan told you about the park. I feel I need to copy these down to bother my family with next time we're in there. Maybe give them a new appreciation for the place like me. That would be fantastic! And that's awesome he's trying to get a Professional Internship at Disney. He seems like he knows Disney pretty well so I wish him good luck with that!
Awwww, that's so awesome you and Joni got to meet up and are meeting up again in March! So jealous, SOOOOO wish I could've been going back this year. I really would love to meet a fellow DISer so I can actually talk about Disney until the sun goes down without being told to shut up. Glad to hear your last night was a great one even if it was the last one!
Can't wait to read more!
Ahh that's perfect! You're going to do great at your job! When's your move in date?
Aw thanks, I feel I will too! And I'm arriving January 7th! The earliest date possible, in other words - it means I have an earlier departure date as well so I can have some time to prepare for my last year of college when I get back
I know I already congratulated you on twitter and instagram, but I just wanted to say again how happy I am for you and how this couldn't have happened to a more perfect person!
I showed my mom a picture of your Halloween costume, and she wanted to know if little kids stopped you in the park... Are you going to try to audition for a character roll at all?
Is there a risk that your advisor would actually say no?
