JANUARY 9th is TODAY!!!!!!! Yes I finally checked into the Disney College Program, what a day!
So I'm going to go back to the day I left for Florida and bring up to speed what has been going on, soooo keep your arms, legs, inside at all times and remain seated.
Saturday 1:10-- Arrived at the AutoTrain and waited around till 2:30 when we boarded the train. I was lucky enough to have gotten two seats to myself. The train ride was not terrible, but being on anything for 17hours will take a lot out of you.
Sunday 8:15- Arrived at Sanford Florida and waited only about a half hour for my car, and then went on my way. I typed the hotel address into my GPS but of course I got lost anyway, GO FIGURE! Moving on.. I got to my hotel around 10ish and was able to check in early which was super nice. I got to go to my room, go to the gym, lay out by the pool, shower, and take a nap! So nice! Around 4ish two of my roommates came over, so we got to talk and meet eachother, they're super nice! 6ish we met up with the rest of our roommates at Downtown Disney and met some of their friends. I love my roommates! They're really awesome.
Monday (Today) 5:00am- We woke up, got ready, and checked out of the hotel. We headed over to Vista Way around 6 and there was only like 15people in front of us so we thought we got there at a pretty good time. Anyway we only waited till a little after 8 and they let everyone through the gates. A man led us to the check in desk in which we had to fill the first out of a lot of paper work. We signed housing stuff, and then continued to go through the process. We ended up getting a 3 bedroom apartment in Patterson Court. Not our first choice but its really nice. After we got our housing assignment we got our complex id and filled out paperwork for our cars. We were then rushed over to get a bus over to casting. Casting is where we got our job location along with all our employment documentation. I will be working Magic Kingdom Parking Operations. I'm excited because I did ask for Magic Kingdom so we'll see how these next couple of months go. Through casting there is a lot of waiting and a lot of signing and walking through the entire building. Everything with paperwork and employment is all taken care of here though so once you leave casting, you really don't have to worry about anything else. We got out of casting a little after 11, so again not too terrible on timing. We now went to check out our apartment and start unpacking! Finally! After sweating and loading everything in the apartment, I got some unpacked and then we had a housing meeting at 3. The housing meeting was held at the Commons, in which they tried to keep everyone pumped up but obviously everyone is so tired because we have nonstop moving all day. So after the housing meeting, we came back and finally unpacked everything! Its been such a long day, and finally at like 9pm I can finally relax.
This week has a little on the agenda so far though. Tuesday is an off day for everyone. Wednesday is Traditions which is a class we all have to talk, we get our cast id's along with our name tags (so official). My traditions is at 8:45, so we're trying to go to the park afterwards.Thursday is another off day for me, but some of my roommates start work. Friday is my first day of training at 7:15 am, OH BOY! haha
Anyway there is most likely so much I have left out but I am too tired to even go back and spellcheck and reread it, so enjoy what I've got down so far. I'll be updating more as we go through the week with everything we are doing down here!
I cannot believe I officially am a Disney Cast Member. I couldn't be happier, I already have loved my experience and its the first day, I'm so excited to see what the rest of the program has! Well goodnight <3
OH! BTW: Here is an apartment tour, its short and sweet! Enjoy :D
