"And maybe Vista Way." Hehe, good stuff. Vista was so handy to live in, though. Wendy's, Walgreens (one of my roommates and I spent ~$500 at the liquor store; you should've seen how many booze bottles were lining our shelves! :)) Chick-Fil-A, and Crossroads were all within walking distance. The bus hub is right there, and the pool was quite relaxing after a long day. But I stayed away from the hot tub; one of the first things we heard about upon arrival was the hot tub.
@Rinny92DANCE It's tough to say. I think since the recession hasn't been easy on anyone, they are hiring less people, and the earlier you apply the better. Also, there are more jobs in merchandise, and food than anything else, so be prepared to do that even if you don't want to. I did merchandise and loved it! Entertainment has separate auditions, but that's all on the website! Good luck!
@Rinny92DANCE It is hard to get into, especially these days, where the competition is much more fierce. Do not be discouraged, though. It wasn't until my 3rd try before I finally got accepted into the Program. I got back from the Program in May, and know a great deal about it. So any questions you may have, you can send my way.
you have so many great pictures Akilah! cab;t wait to take some with you! haha ;] the "disney dreams come true" song: do you still have it? :D - Clara
omg your the bombbb dignity bomb....your pctures ,videos and music is extreamly awesome!!!!!!!!! im coming fall advantage 2010 and now im even more excited.....yes.....
i know this is really random, but where did you get the fantasmic! theme song from? i've been looking all over the place and can't find the "good" version.
this video is so awesome! ive looked through a bunch of dcp videos, but yours is the first one ive watched the whole way through...i LOVE the editing! i seriously called my sister over and was like, "watch this one!!" and we sat there and went, "oh!" and "ah!" haha. this is so great, im about to cry remembering my own program (fall advantage 2009) :( im finishing up my video tomorrow though, i hope its half as good as yours!
Wow, that is a HUGE compliment! Haha! I edited for 10 hours straight (windows moviemaker tends to crap out, so if you use it, save ALL THE TIME). Thank you so much! I'm glad you liked it :]
You'll have a great time, definitely. I learned so much and had a fantastic time! I'm hopefully going to go back and audition to be friends with a princess :]
This is... amazing. I did the program in 2008 and I'm wanting to do a video of all my pictures and videos and what not. There is NO way I can top this!!
I worked in merchandise in Tomorrowland at t he Magic Kingdom. Sometimes I was sent to Main Street because they were understaffed, but 99% was tomorrowland :D
This is a really nice video! I did the fall program back in 2006 and I just applied for fall 2010. I also stayed in Vista I worked merchandise I manily worked at the Wilderness Lodge in the gift shop.
Well, if you want to save money, I say Vista, it's where I stayed. It wasn't a bad apartment, honestly, they just aren't as nice as Chatham and the newest one... But you really want to save money while you're down there, because there are tons of opportunities to go on cruises, or go to universal etc.
also, i had some friends work in quick service, two of my roommates as well. one thing i can say is just have patience. there are going to be super annoying days at any job, but remember, you aren't there for the job, you're there for the experience! I miss it so much everyday.
Fall Advantage 2009! Attractions. I've been busy trying to get everything in order before my flight next week. I think I almost bought the same kind of camera you have 3:20. It looks like you had an amazing time. I hope my experience is just as amazing.
i have been wanting to do the disney college program but their is something i dont understand do you just do the program and go to college somewhere else im confused
like most college internships, you have to be enrolled in college, and then you will just take the time to do the internship, while still receiving credit from your college.
WOW that was great!! good job and i can't wait to go. Can u just tell me what song is playing at around 3 minutes please...? i dont recognize it and its awesome ! -- thanks
thank you! it was so much fun, I miss it so much everyday.
The song at 3 minutes is the "Disney Dreams Come True Parade" theme song. You likely won't be hearing it past this, because it was the day parade for 2008 (they change the theme every year). But yeah, thanks again!
aww, thanks. I'm sure your video is fabulous as well. I kinda wish I had more videos in mine, especially from animal kingdom, but eh, what can you do?
oh, and you found me, so I think you know I worked in tomorrowland. (character performer is so much cooler!)
hey! i did the regular Fall 2008, and my video is 20 minutes long haha probably not as good as yours either.. My name's Clara - what was your role? I read that you miss Disney.. where are you from? I'm from MI, a Character Performer and my Disney CP experience in a slide show is not yet posted.. lol
AH! i'm applying for the Fall Advantage 2009 and I want it more than I've wanted ANYYYYTHING!! i would be so happy working for Disney. My interview is tomorrow! you look like you had a great time!
It was a whole lot of fun. It is really tough at some points, just with long hours, and not enough free time, but sometimes you get lucky to like the people you live/work with (i did). good luck! you'll totally get it!
I am willing to bet my pants that you got it. Not that I know how your interview went, but because they generally accept you if you are friendly and seem competent and outgoing. I'm sure you got it!
I did the program and despised my job more than any job I have ever had hard to believe but true... I couldnt stand to be there I gave away all of my shifts lol.... Anyway ya kick ass job!
okay i watched it on my phone earlier. i LOVE the ending. and the pic of simo.. haha. it makes me think maybei am going to have to do mine by park now.. cause its just so random the way i have it.. 30 minutes on 4 parks, work, and halloween.. plus if i do it your way and steal some from other people... =)
