Becoming Obsessive...

[Meg13]

Still going crazy. Oh my goodness. This is sad. All this time is driving me crazy; I've even managed to convince myself that there's no hope, considering my age. Which makes me sad. And then something Disney will come on (random iPod shuffle, Disney commercial...) and I'll get all excited again. Darn.

You're not alone. We can survive together!

Let's just hope they don't wait so long that we all go insane together!

You're absolutely right, Ash. You and my recent grad cousin said the same thing. I'm a bad girl, but I'll try to do better before my grades drop. It's just that when I'm overwhelmed I tend to ignore the problem instead of facing it head on. I'm taking 6 classes, most are easy, except Deep Ecology. Just in this one class I have to read 5 novels plus several thick hand outs given out every week in class, plus I have to write three 7pg papers (or 2 papers and a creative project/presentation). After all these years in college, I've never had a class with so much work.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
So I gave in and called even though the PL said to wait until Dec. 1st. I couldn't help myself! The nice lady on the phone said they're still reviewing my application and it takes longer for DL b/c their process is different...but I will hear "very soon"!

1)I've heard that from EVERYONE this year!!! I especially feel the crunch too! So much work for my last semester! WHY???
And I can only give this advice because I have to give myself this speech every day...often multiple times a day!

2) Nothing wrong with being proactive. Good for you! Here's to hoping!

Double obsessive now...just had my Disneyland interview! Aaah! The funny thing is my interview for DL went way better and I think I have a better chance at DL than WDW, despite that the program is more selective. Go figure!

Are you gonna post a blog entry about it? I'm excited to hear about it!

Ok my obsession is making me even crazier than I thought I could be. If I don't hear back soon, I might...I might...apply to WDW! I really don't want to b/c I've been in a long distance relationship for over 4 years and he lives in CA, that's why I picked DL, you see? I haven't seen him since April when I came to visit him over there. Cali is so cool by the way! But I already knew that when I went when I was 10. Anyway, I'm already dieing without him. It's really really REALLY hard not being able to cuddle with him every night. Anywho, so this Disney thing is making me crazy enough to go another 4 or more months without my prince charming! I can't do it. Don't let me do it! But of course, I'd be able to visit him at least once, but I had my heart set on being with him on a non-LDR way right after graduation, you know? Ugh, this is NOT happening...Disney make your decision b4 I do something I know I'll regret!


I also must do the DLCP so I'll have a job already set b4 I move to Cali. I really hate moving somewhere without a job, like I did when I moved to FL and that was really scary.

I just did WDW is still my 1st choice but I'll take DL too!

 

[vickalamode]

A few days ago I emailed the WDW CP and asked about adding additional roles to my application even though I already interviewed, not expecting them to let me...but apparently today is my lucky day ! Because someone called from the CP to do an unscheduled interview with me about the additional roles I wanted to add. It was short (8 minutes) and the only questions she asked were about the roles I wanted to add...and 1 question for each of them instead of a few questions for the ones I was most interested in.

I added jobs with higher demand like custodial, merchandise, and attractions (As well as FSFB, Recreation, Lifeguard, and housekeeping). The only high-demand job I didn't add was QSFB because that is pretty much the only job I know that I would hate.

I asked what this did to the status of my application and she said it made the pending basically go away and it is like starting over...so I've got more time to wait but hopefully better chances now!

Yup, obsession is reaching even worse heights now. Some of the people in the CS program called, and they sent out letters for all those who've applied on Tuesday. So far, only one person has gotten theirs (an acceptance!), but knowing that the letters are out there and on their way is going to completely drive me even more off my rocker!

well 4 weeks and 6 days later....i got my pending letter today

Thanks a lot for the update. Kingdom Hearts is easing the pain of waiting, but just a little haha. My dad brought the mail home today (we have a PO box because the snowplows keep taking out our mail box... stupid plow) and when he held up a white legal letter envelope my heart skipped a beat thinking it was a rejection letter! Then I realized it was just a letter from a dealership about a repair on my car. I think I just got a very very small taste of what it would feel like to get rejected and I must tell you... I don't think my heart would start again.

Anyway, more good luck to everybody!

sos, it's snowing where you are??

 

[sosmember]

sos, it's snowing where you are??

Haha no I should have been clearer. Every winter we went through 5 or 6 mailboxes and it was getting a little too expensive to replace them so we just went with a PO box year round. I'm from Ohio, about 45min north of Columbus. But now that you mention it, A few towns up by Cleveland just saw their first bit of snow for the year day before yesterday, freak cold front I guess.

Today I went to get the mail at noon hoping that there would be a letter in there for acceptance only to remember I had the interview at 8:15am this morning. I'm already anxious to the letter/email as soon as possible.

 

[captn]

Well, I'm in the same boat as all of you hopefuls out there.

I applied/completed the web interview on Sept. 22nd. I had my phone interview on Sept. 23rd at 10:46 am... I'm 100% obsessed lol. The answer can't come quickly enough.

I know it's still quite early, but now that I have all of this time to think back on my interview.. I keep coming up with things I could/should have added. Bleh.

I know I'll end up waiting weeks to hear anything, but I just want to know! I'd like to be able to focus on something else, like school perhaps

 

[Garovia]

School is going to be interesting the next couple of weeks because I'm going to have this hanging over my head. Hopefully I'll be able to concentrate so that I can get a good GPA this semester.

 

[captn]

Everytime I get on the computer I tend to gravitate towards Disney related sites as opposed to writing a paper lol

It's stressful that I won't potentially know until the first week of November! (she said 4-6 weeks) That just seems like an impossibly long amount of time.

 

[ZoeDisney]

I totally feel your pain about school and waiting, but about 10x worse. It's been a month and 2 days and my status is still "pending".

 

[Meg13]

Yeah, journalism class was fun, because I'd always be here or my e-mail instead of researching my latest article. But, for better or for worse, my wait should be over soon. There have been quite a few more acceptances lately; I'm hoping for a large envelope tomorrow!
