More Amazing Adventures of the 2012 Disney Mom's Panel

[surfergrl31]

I did get a return email letting me know that they got my information, but I haven't been called to schedule it yet. I'm guessing maybe tomorrow or Monday, it seems a little weird to be contacted on a Sunday. Hey, if it means scheduling my interview it could be at 2 a.m. and I would not mind. This reminds me of going through rush when I was in college.

I didn't get a return e-mail back...sounds like that might have been a hit or miss...

I just wanted to take a moment to send my best wishes to all of you going forward into R3 for phone interviews next week! I've definitely been feeling a little sad these past couple of days... but I'm truly, truly sooo happy for all of you! The next best thing to moving forward in this journey myself is to watch all of you, my new Disney bffs moving on!! I'll be crossing fingers, toes, saying prayers and sending pixie dust to all!! I'm honestly hoping that since the R3 numbers seem so low.... that this phone interview is an informality.... you all deserve to be on the panel in my opinion! I'm on your sideline watching and cheering! xoxo Heidi

Hi everyone! I did not receive a return email and am also not yet scheduled for the phone interview. I feel better knowing there is a group of us . Our house phone (charged) actually died out on me while talking to my sister a little bit ago. It is working now, but it was enough to stress me out a little. I am wishing I gave my cell as my primary contact number. Oh well! What are a few more gray hairs in the whole scheme of things?

Kaylene -Hi! I am sorry. I do not yet have a Twitter account, but I'll get working on one!

I'm ridiculously excited!

 

[abatista08]

Ahhhh!! I got the thank you email...you got the scheduled interview!! I hope they call soon! What's the area code I'm looking for?

Jennifer handled my email, and she did send me a basic "thank you" email. She called me this afternoon from a GA area code.

Good Luck!

Evening DISers,
As I was celebrating my advancement to Round 3, my family and I were informed that my father had passed away today. He was very ill, and sick for almost a year with kidney failure and heart disease.
I am broken hearted but know that he is a better place.

Thank you to my fellow DISers in advance for your prayers and words of comfort. I considered removing myself from the WDW moms panel nominees but my father was so happy that I had made it to round 3, that I've decided to continue in his honor, as I know that is what he would've wanted.

Thank you again and much love.

I am so sorry for your loss. Big Hugs!

I wish you all the best in Round 3!

Hey guys! Just checking in after catching up on so many things I had neglected. After sending in my info this morning I had been computer/phone free all day - then I checked in on FB and saw that "confirmation " emails and interview times had been happening but alas my inbox was empty and my phone showed no missed calls. PANIC struck so by phone I re-sent my info with a "please dont think I'm neurotic note" just to be sure - darn that auto correct - typo was sent along with it oh well - lesson learned!
Hope you all receive your phone calls tomorrow!

Once again - I really feel for you guys without a response -

LaneOT - i want to add an extra hug for you - it seems like way too many of us have too much experience with the loss of parents.

to you all!

Hi Kaylene...I'm malanot on twitter.

Thank u for your sympathy.

Good morning everybody! Just wanted to check in and let everyone know I still haven't received any email about Round 3. I have to admit, emotionally I feel pretty beat up right now. But it helps when I checked FB this morning a friend of a friend that I don't personally know asked me for Disney trip planning advice!

It just really makes me sad to think that maybe my video was never viewed. I did receive a confirmation message once I sent it, but I must admit my faith in Disney's technology is greatly shaken. I put a whole lot of myself into that video and I hate to think it's a lonely orphan in cyberspace!

Like many others, I've been doing some soul searching and evaluating on what I want to do next year. I know there will be a next year for me because I know I won't be able to stay away! I too applied for DVC but haven't used our points outside WDW. That WILL be fixed! I'm also starting a blog-- not so much because I think that makes a difference with the panel, but because writing is a muscle and the more you do it, the stronger it gets. And I know this one may sound a bit psychotic-- but I'm going to lose weight. While I don't believe Disney overlooked me because I'm pooh-sized, I do know that my confidence on the video would have been far better if I had felt better about my appearance. Of course-- that's assuming they even SAW my video!

Congrats to all Round 3 hopefuls. I will be anxiously awaiting new that you've made the panel!

Congratulations to all those who have made it to the finals! I can remember being so nervous before my interview last year. Just remember to be yourself!!

And if you didn't make it to the finals, just remember to keep swimming...always keep swimming!

Hope to see a few of you next month as we welcome new members to our Moms Panel family!!!
