So I'm almost one month into my program, and I can honestly say this is probably the best thing I could have done after graduation. The College Program has already opened up so many opportunities for me, none of which I would have been able to take advantage of if I had done the safe thing and stayed home.
Not only do I get to do fun things like go to the parks all the time (the amount of times I've gone in the past couple of days alone would have cost me at least 2 paychecks) and get discounted tickets for things like Mickey's No-So-Scary Halloween Party (which I am SO excited about. And need costume ideas for. Please help), but I have so many awesome potential career opportunities as well.
As of right now, I am officially planning on applying for a Professional Internship in Guest Relations. I was very hesitant about applying at first, because it would mean not going back home for at least another 6 months. But after talking to other program participants and hearing the story of my favorite leader and most valuable resource, Kayla, I decided I would regret it forever if I didn't at least try. Kayla is going to be my best friend through this and I'm already so thankful for what she has done for me to help. She's going to look over my resume (which needs so much help), set up meet and greets with Guest Relations leaders, and set up mock interviews for me to try to help me work towards this internship. I haven't decided if I'm going to apply to any others, but I probably will just to increase my chances of getting one.
Sorry to everyone at home that was hoping I'd come back right away, but this could be awesome for me and I'm really excited about it! If I don't get the internship then you'll probably see my face again sooner than I would like, but it's all in God's hands, so we'll see what He wants to happen!
And just so this isn't all words, here are some pictures from my trip to Magic Kingdom before work yesterday!





Sounds like things are going in the right direction. Keep looking towards Him for His guidance. We are so excited about you wanting to apply for an internship, we will be praying. Love you lots.
