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

[Amy18]

Thank you, just a waiting here.


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



You said crack of Dawn! HAHAHAHHAAH..my name

I promise I will post pics tomorrow, if one of you can explain to me how to get them on a public site? Or can I use a URL off one of the pics I post to Facebook?

Dawn - I promise I wasn't referring to your crack.

RNmama- I am happy to share, I did post a list of them several pages back, I think. But here are some: (keep in mind I am WDW specialty)

1. Why should you be chose for the Panel?

2. What personal and professional experiences do you feel would aid in your duties as a Mom's Panel member?

3. What is your strongest area of vacation planning?

4. What vacation planning topic do you spend the most time researching when planning others' vacations?

5. What is your favorite Disney quote and why?

6. What Disney character do you identify most with and why?

7. What are your 3 strongest character traits and why?

8. What is your biggest personality flaw and why?

9. What do you feel would be the most rewarding aspect of being a member of the Moms Panel?

10. What resources do you use most often when planning vacations?

11. What computer experience do you have?

12. How many vacations have you planned for yourself and others
a. this year?
b. in your lifetime?

Those are just a few. DH is an HR Director, so he has been working with me, telling me a lot of the questions that he generally asks during interviews, I have thought about some that I was asked in mine, and then some "little birdies" (credible sources) filled me in as well. There are many other questions I think they may ask, but this is a good start.

Great questions and something to help pass the time! Thanks for sharing with us!

 

[RNMAMA]

Thanks for sharing. I appreciate it. I'm on the fence : do I think about the questions/answers or am I jumping the gun??? Then i remember I never did get a confirmation email for my submission so I could be waiting and speculating for nothing.... I know I'm going crazy
I wonder if the rundisney questions will include vacation planning questions as well (as you mentioned above) or if they will just revolve around the events themselves? Guess we will not know until rd3....

I tweeted Laura. Told her we are all worried about losing power in the hurricane. I asked her for a hint on when we might see a pixie dust alert. She said she's worried about it too. Hopefully that means she and Leanne will push to get the emails out today

Not to be a Dawn Downer, but I thought Amy Mullins (@disneydanserr) actually tweeted:Worried about that too( --maybe she did also...

Stay safe east coasters!
It's a girls weekend for me and DD, with DH off in Vegas. Last night we watched wayyy too much Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and Doc McStuffins while I was all following the action on Twitter. We'll have to get out today, but I have no idea what to do on a cold Saturday with a 3-year-old. Any suggestions?

Maybe Chuck E Cheese or an indoor playground facility.

Ugh...woke up sick and I have no voice!!! I also noticed that DD woke up with two bloodshot eyes and one of them kind of sticky. I'm pretty sure she has pink eye in both eyes so I'm trying to get her in to see the doctor. We also have to get all of our grocery shopping done today before the storm!! Craziness!!

I hope y'all feel better soon & your daughter's pink eye heals quickly.

Good Morning Waiting Room Family! In has been such an amazing journey and I feel so honored and so blessed to be able to take it with each and every one of you incredible moms and dads. May this weekend be magical and full of pixie dust for all of us. Hugs ��

So far it's been a unbelievable ride, thx to all of you!

Thank you to everyone here adding prayers for my mom..

Many prayers for your mom!

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

Anne, That's wonderful, I would LOVE to try one of your cakes in Dec! I entered a X-mas wreath last year, got second place (pic on my blog) I paint, sew & create crafty items, my dad enters photography, my mom crochets', kids enter photo's, drawings & jewelry, my hubby doesn't enter, not real creative in that way.

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.

Thx, I'll get over this soon & be back to my old-self, in no time! Don't stress, its really going to happen when it happens. I think its probably better being "off the cuff" its a real time response...

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.

Great costume idea!!!

Stay safe east coasters!

Any indoor bounce places near you??

Ugh. Sorry to hear. Hope you both feel better quickly.

Good morning! Prayers and pixie dust all around! Busy day of Halloween activities for us here ... including a pet costume contest. I'm dressing a guinea pig as a whoopie cushion, so how can we lose? I'm having the strange Disney dreams now too. Last night in my dreams, we were trying out a brand new Magic Kingdom roller coaster ... made entirely of fruit roll-ups. I need coffee. LOL.

There is sure to be a dachsund in a hot dog bun.

Thank you to everyone here adding prayers for my mom.

Add my thoughts as well.

My philosophy for that is once you go, then you'll know.
[/QUOTE]

Exactly!

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!

Have fun at DOI!!

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?

Sorry you are not feeling well. Feel better soon. Perhaps a little pixie dust will help?

 

[BethA]

Thank you for sharing possible questions. My first instinct was to start work on them but I am not too confident so I will wait.

I will be so jealous of those at training I may have to plan a trip. They should give those not moving on a huge discount because there is nothing like a Disney vacation to lift your spirits.

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

You guys are definitely not the only ones doing that. I have been doing it since I submitted it.

I LOVE yoda!
"If no mistake have you made, yet losing you are....a different game you should play.YODA

Sorry you are not feeling well. Feel better soon. Perhaps a little pixie dust will help?

YES, a little Pixie dusted email would help ALOT!

You're right Dawn, I guess I read that Tweet wrong!

I hope you are feeling better

Leaving for Halloween Party in two hours. PLEASE send me some before then! There's this one "friend" in our group (wife of a friend) who is really rude. At every gathering she spends the entire time on her cell phone either texting her daughter, on Twitter or Facebook. I told DH I am going to "pull a Cathy" and check my phone every 5 minutes for Twitter and my email! I still wouldn't be as rude as she is.

Was hoping today would be day to hear about round 3 but it doesn't look like it. Good luck to everyone who has made it to round 2 and I hope pixie dust finds you in the next few days! I also send my wishes to everyone who is going to deal with Sandy in the next few days. Stay safe!

Wasn't it last year that emails came after 10:00 pm on a Saturday? So plenty of time to have since dinner , watch the Giants win game 3 of the World Series and then THE email that will give you the sweetest of dreams for many nights to come- because I've decided it will say " Congratulations and Welcome to the Disney Mom's Panel" for all of us ! How could it not!!!

 

[mjaclyn]

I wonder if they decided to hold off on the emails until the end of next week because of all this storm craziness. They probably don't want to chance anyone being without power and not being able to receive the email or schedule/have their interview. I think the last time the pink binder photo was tweeted it was another week before we heard anything.

That would be the best gift ever!!!

If so, I will truly lose my mind!

I was also thinking about the fact that someone mentioned the Coyne PR folks participate in the phone interviews. Aren't they in Jersey? They may have to wait to know that the people from Coyne can be at work/have power for phone calls before they can set the interview dates in stone.

 

[Marnm02]

Well, ladies and gents, we spent the day enjoying lunch and playtime at McDonald's. Then we went to Target and got the new Tinkerbell movie along with a Tinkerbell doll. I was thinking I might see an email after all that time away from the computer, but nothing yet, so we will just be hanging out here, watching Tink until bedtime

 

[cbkamommy]

Off to a Halloween Pumpkin Carving party....carving a MICKEY pumpkin in hopes it brings us some pixie dust
If we wait another week at least we are all in it together. Seems like when we have all given up hope we hear something.

 

[logpey]

My family has gone where the fun is, & it ain't here. I'm going to get out of the house tomorrow, whether it kills me or not. Its now dark & I'm still in jammies from last night, YES--gross. I will get a hot bath & then return to my throne (bed) & await my King & our royal prince & princess. They better have sushi upon returning to the Kingdom, because this Queen, is getting her appetite back! WOOT!

 

[snshine123]

I've decided that the longer we wait, the closer we all our to our Pink Training...
