How About Some Introductions?

[Monster_Movie]

I'm Samantha, 20. I currently live in Jackson, MS and I'm majoring in Travel & Tourism Management. I've been to Disney World more times than I can count, and Fall of 2009 will be my second term as a Disney CP. The first time I was in Merch at the Magic Kingdom (Fantasyland). This time I was lucky enough to get Attractions (not that I didn't love Merchandise, but Attr. was my first choice!). I'm so excited to be going back, and I hope that everyone loves it as much as I did/will.

Hey I'm Mike, I'm 20 years old, and am going to the WDW CP in May for Attractions. I'm pretty excited, I've only been to Disneyworld once, but I basically grew up at Disneyland. I couldn't even tell you the amount of times that I have been there, it's well over 80. I go to Hofstra University in New York, about 30 minutes away from Penn Station. I am a Theatre Performance major with three minors (English, Public Relations, and Musical Theatre). I'm bringing my car with me too so that should be fun!

Bringing your car is a good idea. I'm sure someone's posted on here somewhere about how silly the bus systems were at times. They're great if you don't have a car. But since you do, bringing it would be a really good idea.

Hi!! I'm Rebekah I'm 19 and I currently go to Syracuse University! I'm double majoring, for now, in International Relations and Anthropology with an emphasis on the studies of Indigenous people.

I've only been to Walt Disney World twice! Boooo! My first time was when I was 7 and NOBODY was at the parks it was ridiculously magical, I literally went on Splash Mountain at least 5 times!!! July of last year my parents graduation present to me was a one week stay at Port Orleans! I had such a fantastic time!

My brother recently accepted a position to be an Imagineer specifically at MGM STudios, he's only 21! So now my family is pretty much Disney-fied hahahaha and it's my turn to augment this by doing the CP program this Fall. I cannot wait to go and hope to meet all of you guys down there!!!!!

Erm.. program? I don't have to have a specific focus or anything at my school. Technically what I'm doing is a Sociology/Anthropology BS which a concentration in Anthropology. I'm at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga.

hehehehe I meant fall or fall advantage?
But either way that's awesome!!!!

 

[rachaelfig]

Oooooooh. Well in that case, I applied for Fall, but I haven't gotten an answer yet. What about you?

Hey Everyone.
I'm John Tereska, and I'm from Hampton Roads, Virginia! I go to George Mason University in Northern Virginia.

I haven't heard back from the College Program people. They sent me a letter saying they needed more time to decide on my application. I just thought I would get on here and see how other people are holding up in the application process!

Feel free to find me on Facebook or chat me over here!

I'm waiting for Fall too!!!!
I'll be a wreck if I don't get accepted..it was 2 weeks for me yesterday.

 

[rachaelfig]

I know me too! I'm seriously worried I'll start bawling if I see a little white envelope, even if it's just a pending letter. I'm 10 days out from my interview.

 

[JohnTereska08]

I got a white envelope in my mailbox the other day and freaked out. Upon opening the stupid thing, I found out it was the letter saying they needed more time to decide on my application status.

I freaked out. And hope that never happens again. Way to tease people, Walt!

SURPRISE! They're making you head of the Disney Company. They just couldn't tell you in the letter?

I'll keep my fingers crossed, but I'm sure there's no need. What roles did you put down?

Haha. I wish I was being made the head of the company!

I put down a lot. I remember lifeguard, merchandise, character attendant, hospitality, resort something or another, and I said yes to QSFB. My top three are character attendant, lifeguard and then merchandise. But I'm really happy with anything.

Have you been accepted then?

Haha "and I said yes to QSFB." Me too.

I have been. This will be my second time working for the Big Cheese. I got attractions this time, which is what I wanted last time as well. But I, too, would have been happy with anything. It's the experience, yanno.

JohnTereska08, you're from Fairfax? I lived in Herndon for 3 years and my grandparents are in Springfield =]

No. I'm not from Fairfax. I got to school at George Mason, which is right up the road from Springfield! I'm from Hampton Roads, or more specifically, Newport News. I love this area, though. Very nice!
