Obviously I'm Not Over the Mouse...

Well...I'm going back to the land of Mouse. I just accepted my offer as an Attractions cast member for Fall 2013. And I WILL keep up with my blog this time!! Every time I go back and re-read my blog from my last program I kick myself for not keeping up with it. It's so much fun to go back and reminence.
I've decided to go back becuwse I need the closer. I didn't finish my last program and I regret it. This will also give me time to decided what I want to do with my life now that I'm finally graduating in May. I think it will give me the space I need.
So here's what went down from interview to acceptance letter. So I had my interview on Saturday February 23 (yes my lil' chicken's birthday) with Brandon who I tried extremely hard not laugh at becuase he was EXTREMELY peppy and way too entergetic for me. Just sayin. Anyway he went through the typical questions: why Disney? why again? top roles? why those? roomates? give an example of this and that...blah...blah...blah. Just incase you were wondering my top roles were Photopass (DUH), BBB, and I really can't remember what my third was. I think it was actually attractions or character attendant. But I did try to put A LOT of emphasis on all my photography experience, but apparently working at a portrait studio, doing photogrpahy on the side, and taking photography classes isn't enough for these people. I also did put a lot of emphasis on the fact that I DID NOT want to work at Magic Kingdom again. For crying out loud...if I get put back there it's going to be hard to stick with it. So I told Brandon that I wanted to work at Animal Kingdon. The COMPLETE opposite. (I want decsent hours!) So we'll see.
I'm so nervously excited about this. Excited that I'm going back to Disney. Nervous becuase attractions was not my first pick, having roomates I can't stand (wink wink), and of course being away from my family and boyfriend for 6 months. Plus since this is the fall program I won't be home for Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, or New Years. Not sure how I feel about all that quite yet.
What's life without adventure. I'm ready for this one.
Bring it on Disney :)
