to Round 3...And Beyond! Moms Panel Hopefuls and Friends

[BethA]

Thank you to everyone here adding prayers for my mom.

I am in Pittsburgh so not worried we will have severe weather like others, but hope everyone else here is not in it's path. Hopefully the storm will be less intense than what they predict.

I often hear from people " how could you go on a Disney cruise again? Didn't you just go to Disney world?". Nice to have others who understand my love for all things Disney.
Came here this morning expecting to hear from those moving on. Maybe later.

I love when people say that to me, it's usually from someone who has never been. My philosophy for that is once you go, then you'll know.

Have a great day everybody! Here's to hoping that today's the day and its filled with pixie dust for all!

I had a strange Disney Dream where I was at the BCV (my favorite resort) and there were snakes everywhere! I am petrified of snakes- not sure what this means but it was a strange one!

Hi everyone! DS12 and I just got back from "running" our YMCA's Pumpkin Roll 5K-- or at least he ran it... crawling would be a better description of my pace. I've only done 4 5K's before this-- and they were all Disney. I couldn't help but wonder where the fireworks and awesome on-course enternament were.

mjaclyn and betha-- prayers are continuing to go up here for your family members in need. all around!

I saw Laura's tweet about cranberry bogging today (is that even a verb???). I. So. Want. Her. Job!

I'm still waking up in the middle of the night mulling over any potential answers for the phone interview! Hope we hear something soon... I need the sleep!

May today be the day!

I am doing the same thing! I have already done a word document with all the questions they might ask (with several that a little bird told me might be among them) and I have figured out what my responses might be.

I have also been re-reading my essays and watching my video over and over. Praying that they found something in me that made them say "wow, we should give her a shot!"

Hey gang! Maybe today will be the day, who knows! I'm going to check in every so often but have a lot of things to do before this storm hits, I am really hoping not to lose power,,how will I talk to you guys?!?? If anyone is is in the path of this storm please, please, please stay safe!! Once again good luck to all and a little more pixie dust for all of us!!!

 

[stnet]

Praying everyone in the path of Sandy stays safe. We have soccer this afternoon and then an engagement party this evening so hopefully my mind won't wonder to much to the mom's panel. Oh who am I kidding better charge my phone so the battery stays alive cause I know I'll be checking it every 5 minutes!!! Good luck to everyone just kinda ready to find out either way!!

Everytime my phone beeps with a new email , my heart stops. This process may or may not be hazardous to my health !!! I know y'all feel the same way!!

 

[snshine123]

So what do you think our Round 3 phone interview questions will be?

 

[TigrLvsPooh]

Everytime my phone beeps with a new email , my heart stops. This process may or may not be hazardous to my health !!! I know y'all feel the same way!!

I subscribe to a few threads here on the DIS, every single time one comes through my email I see the first three letters D..I..S and my heart stops beating!

 

[Skampigirl]

Thinking of everyone and sending and ! Also sending prayers for safety when the storm arrives.

I didn't have time to post yesterday, but the tweets were SO much fun! Oh, and somewhat nerve wracking too. Seeing those binders made me all jittery inside - to think my submission was in there somewhere!! But the journey with all of you has been amazing and it's the journey, as they say, not the destination!! Though the destination would be pretty cool

Have a wonderful Saturday!!

Laura

So what do you think our Round 3 phone interview questions will be?

After PM's with a few "little birdies", I have a decent idea of what they might ask. It won't be Disney trivia or anything like that.

It will be more personal questions about vacation planning, your character traits and personality, personal vacation experiences, stuff like that. Some of the "typical HR" type interview questions too - like "why should we invite you to be on the Panel? or What unique qualities/experience do you have to offer?"

So, now we wait!

I had a weird dream just now, taking a nap! (probably because I have a migraine ) ...

We were at training, having our PJ/wine party, jumping on the beds and they collapsed! So were were sneaking around BC in the middle of the night, like "secret spies" who stop at corners and check for the "all clear", and then we would give the nod for the rest to cross the hallway and turn the corner, but we were on our hands and knees - think of Snoopy when he is "sleuthing" ....and then we all jumped the gate to Stormalong Bay, and went wading in the kiddie area, IN OUR PJ's, while drinking directly from the wine bottles. The End.

Would you be willing to share with the class the "little birdy" questions? If not I understand

I honestly do not think we will hear till next week. I'm thinking tues or weds. That's not based on anything other than a feeling

Hope all of you in the storm's path stay safe

 

[Amy18]

I keep signing on to the MP recruiting page, hoping to see "Congratulations"

Not sure if they will do it this round or not. Just a theory.

We had some pixie dust sprinkled here at our house last night (literally!). My DD lost a tooth so she was visited by the Tooth Fairy who always leaves a trail of pixie dust around her room.

And while I wait for the MP news which I hope will come today, we're off to take the kids to Disney on Ice this afternoon! So, news or no news, we're making it a pixie dusted Disney day no matter what!

Happy Saturday friends!

I just woke up, still feeling lousy, so prob another day in the bed. This happens to me maybe every 3 years. I'm normally well & go, go, go--but this has knocked me for a loop. Thank God, my hubby is happily entertaining the kids or I would feel terribly guilty. The Louisiana State Fair just opened & that's what we originally planned today. My family enters competitive projects each year, this year I entered a Mardi Gras wreath.

Well guys, is today the day, how is everyone feeling, lucky--I hope?

Hey! I compete at our state fair too! I compete in cooking. IN fact, the Iowa State Fair is the largest single site cook competition in the world! A couple years back I won the best overall cake over about 280 other cakes. Hope you feel better soon.

Amy...I noticed you said you watch your video over and over and read your entries over and over...me too I assumed I was the only lunatic doing that. (not that you are a lunatic) I keep watching the other posted ones as well. It would have been nice if someone would have posted a bad one. DARN YOU ALL for being so good at this

Actually, it has been fun hanging out with you all. QUESTION: Has Laura always tweeted before each round is sent out?

[logpey]

I saw all the pixie dust flying around twitter last night so I came in to wish everyone the best of luck xxx

Thank you, just a waiting here.

I have no idea! I thought for sure they would have gone out some time last night. But I was wrong.
I have a ton of stuff to do later today, and tonight we are going to an annual adult Halloween party. We always have an amazing time, so that should get my mind off things for a while. Hubby and I are going as "replacement refs", thought it would be funny in light of all the craziness in football a few weeks back. So I will be on DIS and Twitter here and there to check in and see if we have any news.
Good luck everyone!

Show pics, you better, have fun & stay safe from storm!

I just read a Tweet from Laura that said she got up at the crack of dawn to go bogging with Ocean Spray - I am sure that means she is at Epcot in the bog doing some kind of social media activity. crazy2: duh, that's what she does! I am so not awake yet) I need some

You said crack of Dawn! HAHAHAHHAAH..my name

I'm sorry you feel lousy Dawn I miss having your energy and craziness around here. I feel a bit unlike myself too today. I'm not sick but I'm stressing about all this too much. I haven't really thought about the possibility of doing the phone interview yet and what I would say. I'm more of a "fly by the seat of my pants" kinda gal when it comes to interviews.

I really hope we'll hear something soon.
