DORMS

As my check in date is exactly two weeks away, my DORMS email arrived right on schedule! For those of you who don't know, DORMS (Disney Onsite Resident Management System) is the program where which you apply for housing, select your apartment complex and room size preferences, and choose roommates. On my last program, I linked with one other girl who I met through the DCP Facebook page. For this program, however, I have decided to be a bit adventurous and leave that up to chance. Fingers crossed for a normal roommate!

I did select my preferences for complex and unit size, though. If any of you are curious about what the individual complexes are like, I wrote all about all four complexes in this post HERE. In my last program, I was in Patterson, which I loved! However, I have put Chatham as my first choice this time around. This is because Chatham hosts all the housing events, and the bus stop is located right outside of the front gates. My second choice was Patterson, and third was the Commons. I noticed that the weekly rent prices, which are deducted automatically out of your weekly paycheck, have gone up a little since my last program, but not by much. Below is a picture of the prices for each type of room offered. Sorry for the bad quality!

Three Weeks To Go!

According to my lovely Up countdown (pictured in a previous post, titled Countdown), we are officially into the teens: 19 days left to be exact. Today is the first day of finals week here at the University of Kentucky, so naturally all I can think about is how bad I want to be in Disney. I have begun planning my drive down to Orlando, which I think has turned from a 12 hour long drive into a three day adventure!

Truly the happiest place on earth!

In an effort to cross another state off my list, we will be traveling through Alabama instead of Georgia to get to Orlando. As I have never been to Alabama, we plan to spend a night in Montgomery - it looks beautiful! Plus, I love cities that have a lot of history behind them. I also plan to stop in Panama City and Cape San Blas in order to get my fair share of beaches in before heading to central Florida. I am so excited! Let's just hope that I can survive the next two days of finals week. Wish me luck!

Acceptance!

Two days ago, I got an email stating that I had been accepted into the DCP Alumni Summer program! I am so excited, and of course I accepted the role immediately! What better way to spend my summer than in the happiest place on earth?

I was offered the same role as last time: quick service food and beverage. This was one of my top choices, as I really enjoyed working QSFB in my last program. Not to mention, this role usually gets paid about $0.50 more an hour than the other roles, which is nice! My arrival date is May 26th, and I depart on August 13th. I can't wait for school to end so I can head to Florida! Eight weeks to go!
