Random Thoughts

What the heck am I thinking. I have been accepted to do a Third Disney College Program. I will be arriving some time in late Aug or begging of September. This time my role is in Operations.
For those who do not know me, let me fill you in on a bit of my back story (and to those same people who don’t know me, welcome to my blog). I have done the Walt Disney World College Program twice before. The first time was in the Spring of 2002 (my freshmen year in college), with a role in Quick Service Food and Beverage. Most of my time spent on this college program was at Disney’s Blizzard Beach water park. However when I first arrived in January the park was closed and I was put at Disney’s All Star Sports Resort doing foods there. Then when the Atlanta Braves Spring Training started, I was moved to Disney’s Wide World of Sports to help out with a few games ushering. Now I am not a big Braves fan, but getting paid to watch baseball and to answer where the bathroom was, I was not going to complain! Finally after working at Blizzard Beach I was able to train and be a lifeguard for a few weeks at the park. Even with all the moving around, I had a wonderful time on my first College Program.
After coming home, I applied to the Disney Store and have worked there since. Also I had became the Campus Rep for my school for the college program. As a campus rep I promoted the College Program on my campus and other schools around me in exchange for goodies and perks from Disney.
Last year, because of a class I needed and being talked into it by a wonderful female I applied and did the program again (after failing to get a Professional Internship). This time I worked at Downtown Disney at the World of Disney, the largest Disney retail location in the whole world. Unlike my first program I stayed at this location for the whole time (with the exception of 3 or 4 days at the Christmas shop in downtown Disney).
I had a wonderful time with both programs. So much so that after this next time, I am hopefully going to stay in Florida and work there Full-time. That’s the reason for my third CP. I can go to Florida knowing that I have a place to live and work for 5 months while I work at getting a full-time role and a place to live.
And if that is not crazy enough, I have a trip planed for my birthday in July with some co-workers from here at home.
So there is my story. Please feel free to ask questions in my comments and I will try to answer them.
