I just remembered by password...

So.....I may have lost my password, and missed 3 months of blogging :/ I am obviously home now at school, but ill reminisce on the program just to kind of conclude my experience. After the first group of CP's left in May I really started hanging out with my own little "family." Dane, Roshni, Brent and I were inseparable! We went on road trips to Miami and Key West, we stayed at resorts and hotels (The Pineapple- which is sadly being reconstructed),we went on a cruise to the Bahamas, we had family dinners and occasional "special guests", and in the time in between we just bummed around together... I guess what I am getting at here is that....I came into the program looking forward to the experience and just being able to say I worked at Disney. I heard that people found their best friends and boyfriends at Disney but I never thought anything of it. But now looking back on all the experiences we shared in work, doing activities, and even just bumming around...I could not have imagined my program being spent with any better people... I also got that "fairy tale" ending...no I didn't get married and move into Cinderella's castle, but I did make some of the best friends I could ever ask for, and also got a cute boyfriend along the way ;) I won't lie and say that when I came back to Clemson that everything was the same, things were hard to get back to normal, because I was changed and no one could quite understand it unless they lived through that with me...and thats why I am still do close with my "Disney Family" almost 4 months after my programs end. I am currently seasonal at the TTC as a greeter, and will find out next week about another CP (fingers crossed). I know I haven't written nearly enough to catch up for the 4 months that I missed, but all you need to know is the amazing impact the program can make on your life. So ill leave you with some helpful hints to make the program as amazing for you as it was for me! 1.) Make friends with people you work with, they can become your best friends 2.) Don't waste away your days in Florida, there is soo soo much to do! 3.) Don't worry about saving the money that you make, I came home with less money then I left with, but so many memories to share 4.) Don't be afraid of change, your in a new place with new people and new experiences...explore new things and enjoy it 5.) Go to work....those points add up quickly and if you want any connection the company in the future, this is very important 6.) Play in the parks...its FREE, why not?...but dont stay in the Disney bubble the whole time..go out and explore, get an Universal Studios annual pass...ITS WORTH IT:) 7.) Finally, dont be close minded to anything...I could never have guessed all the things that would happen to me during my time here...but they did..change is hard but its GOOD! Keep and open mind and you can make your own dreams come true :) Well that's it for now! Ill try to make a VLOG following up on my bucket list!!!
