How About Some Introductions?

[karlijo]

I was accepted in the Vacation Planning role for Spring 2009 also!

My name is Beth, and I am from the Chicago suburbs.

I'm from Dekalb IL. - Northern IL. University. It's about an hour from Chicago. What suburbs do you live in? My boyfriend is from Northbrook.

Hi! I'm Michelle, 24 from Michigan. Did the college program in Fall 2005, worked as a hostess at the Kona Cafe inside the Polynesian Resort. Best time of my life! Since then I'm become addicted to Disney! I've been back about 6 times since my departure in Jan 2006, I can't get enough! To fill my Disney void, I'm now a campus represenative for the Disney College Program for my school where I spread the word about the amazingness of the program!

Hey guys! Time for introductions, I guess! I'm currently a Uni student majoring in English and minoring in Studio Art. I'm kind of an art fanatic, a devourer of literature, and naturally, a nut for fairy tales and Disney.

My names Ashley! - and I've previously worked for Disney, for an entire YEAR. Oh my goodness... they were some good times. I was a Cultural Representative Participant, so I worked in Epcot, in the World Showcase, representing my country, CANADA! It was amazing of course of course, and I miss the people, the energy, the nutty guests, spieling in front of crowds, the heat, the life, and Orlando/Florida in general! The snow this winter is killing me and sending me into dreaming of the college program! I'll be face-to-face interviewing in the next few months and I can't do enough to occupy myself until then!

I have amazing stories about the belonging and the family that forms from living and working down there (loved living in The Commons!).

This time around I'm hoping to get into Entertainment as it's my favourite facet of the company! The cut backs are a little discouraging, but the pixie dust is still strong in this one, even through all this snow and freeeeezing weather!

[aznshents]

Hey everyone!

My name's Yinan and I go to Villanova University. I'm a Finance major, theater minor. I'm hoping to do the Spring 2010 program and hopefully some more after that, this seems like such an exciting concept!

I hope to work in either Character Performance (oh boy auditions), or Attractions.

Anyone in the PA area? Or MA, seeing how I'm originally from Natick, MA?

 

[MandaBelle]

My name is Mandy. I'm a sophomore at Jackson Community College, and in the process of earning my Associate in Arts.

Dance is very important to me. Life without my dance family is something I cannot begin to imagine.

Disney has a special place in my heart. Beauty and the Beast was my introduction to the theatre. My younger brother (who is autistic) loves watching Mickey Mouse. We have vacationed at WDW twice - 1999 and 2008.

Fall 2009 College Program hopeful.

Hey guys, I'm Sarah I am 22 yrs old graduating as a nurse very soon (YAY). I live up in Rhode Island where right now we are having lots of snow which is gross haha...I am a beach girl. I love anything and everything Disney, I've visited the parks 50+ times over the yrs and just returned from my 3rd Disney Cruise last week. Last May I was able to do a trip with Adventures by Disney out to the South West and it was amazing, going with the guides and getting to hike down a part of the Grand Canyon and also getting to see delicate arch out in Moab, Utah...really cool stuff you don't get to see everyday. The guides are great and make alot of things possible for you. I just recently joined up with the DISBoards so this is my first posting. Great to read some of your stories!!

 

[Sehsun]

Sounds awesome!! I too worked for Disney-- in the Summer of 2006 under the Disney College Program! Your apartment was across from mine( I was in Chatham--across from the Commons!) and I worked right next to Canada in Epcot for a good part of my program--in the Outdoor Food --the Refreshment Port! it was awesome!!!

 

[disneyroach33]

Hurray for introductions! I'm pretty excited to be on this board myself...so here we go!

Hi! I'm Michael. I'm currently a freshman at Purdue University in boring old Indiana! I'm a Creative Writing major and totally should have been a music major like my band director wanted, but for some reason was dumb and didn't go to a school that had music degrees (Purdue doesn't). Yep, Creative Writing...if that sounds weird to you, ask me how many people are taken back when I say that as my major lol!

I'm in love with Disney and have been since I was young--there's just something about it that makes me want my childhood back! Going to the parks was the best when I was little--I also went my freshman year in High School (magical) and my spring break last year (magical too)!

Hopefully I'll meet some other awesome college people here to associate with! I love making friends!

BOILER UP!

 

[ckrisie]

Hey all! My name is Laura I am a four year at the University of Cincinnati studying Political Science minoring in History and getting two certificates in Middle Eastern Studies and Arabic Language and Culture.

I am super excited about the CP I applied for spring 09 and got it but couldn't do it because of classes and graduating and stuff which is a bummer. But I am applying again for Fall 09 so keep your fingers crossed.

Also I go to a school that is on quarters which makes me an odd duck I think. Any other quarter schoolers here?
