M-I-C-K-E-

Y? Because I've been accepted into the Walt Disney World College Internship!

In case you haven't been anywhere near myself, a computer or cell phone in the past month, I finally got accepted to the Disney internship that I've always wanted! You've probably already heard seeing as I now walk around saying, "Hi, I move to Disney in August. How are you?" I feel I've earned the right to be bragg-y though.

So, if all goes as planned, I move to sunny Orlando on August 24, 2009 and return to chilly Massachusetts January 8, 2010. Woah. I know. Before all that I graduate in May and hopefully spend the summer working everyday so I won't be poor in Florida. That's one of my many, understandable and expected concerns--being poor. Also on the list: getting a not so fun job with an unflattering costume, being sunburned for all 5 months and being alone/away from family and friends. My family has already planned on visiting for Christmas and my friends say they will visit on winter break.

This internship for me is:

1. An excuse to avoid the real world for a while
2. A new beginning for me

I am so excited to move to a new state and just start fresh. No one down there will know me. No one will have prejudgments. No one will already hate me--they will have at least a little while to get to know me before that happens. I am excited to make friends with someone from Morocco or some place else E.P.C.O.T.-exotic like England. On my most recent visit to the world-of-mouse I tried my best to mingle and be friendly. Not that anyone will remember me come August but it was nice knowing I'd be living with people like that someday soon.

Throughout my Expedition: Disney, I will update this frequently. Maybe with pictures. Maybe with videos. Until then, I will just try and make sure I graduate, get a job and get a head start on my tan.

Ps. I fully intend on meeting Miley/Jonas Bros./every other Disney star I can get my bloggin' hands on!
