Countdown: 90 DAYS UNTIL CHECK IN

Not much has happened since receiving and paying for my place in the program. So still in this upward spiral of waiting which isn't too bad anymore since there is some relief there.
Also, the following photo of Rapunzel reflects my emotional state at this very moment with university just overloading me with stress thanks to assignments, tests and the final exams that are just around the corner...

Anyway, I haven't exactly decided on how I would creatively reflect or keep myself busy prior to going to Disney World but once the holidays begin in just over a month, dedication to all things Disney will just explode! Might get back into painting and drawing.. Watch this space!

Step 6: The Email to End all Emails

At 6.40am my Dad woke me up to go to Crossfit so I thought whilst I am awake, I might as well check my emails. THANK YOU DAD FOR WAKING ME UP!
As I stared at that glorious email, the only word I could process was "CONGRATULATIONS!" whilst jumping out of my bed yelling 'oh my god oh my god...' and then jumping into mum's room and attempting to tell her the great news!
So in short, yes I did go to Crossfit at 7am... haha

I never would have thought that an email would affect me as much as that one did! I couldn't wipe the smile off my face or stop jumping with joy! It was just INCREDIBLE! This entire day I have been unable to function as a normal human being... just everything is passing me by whilst my brain is thinking: DISNEY DISNEY DISNEY!!!

So now to what emails you actually receive...

1. Disney International Programs: CONGRATULATIONS!
• Simply has a link so you can either except or define the offer within 14 days. Here you have 2 documents that you will need to save! 
• First Document: Start and finish dates are indicated here and what your 'major responsibilities' are (your role) 
• Second Document: Immigration Information Document
2. Congratulations! Your next step to accept
• Has a link for you to pay some fees that they tell you about at the Presentation/Interview
3. Disney International Programs: Welcome to the Team!
• Picture of Mickey Welcoming you to the Walt Disney World team! 
• Links to the following pages: Pre-Arrival Checklist, Course Registration, The Disney Look, Housing Information and Official Disney Blog.
4. Mandatory Medical Insurance Coverage
• Email explaining that you need to buy health insurance. There are three categories to choose from and it ranges from 79 to 122.95 USD per month.

Now onto DOC, they have added two new attachments: Flight Details and Visa Schedule Date. From my understanding, they send over a welcome package through FedEx about VISA and all the other fancy stuff you get to do over there. I'll let you know once I get more information about this :) 

And that is it. It is very surreal to think that in 111 days, I'll officially be working for the Mouse!! 

Post-Interview Waiting Game

So tomorrow will mark 2 weeks since the interview. A whole month less than our fellow New Zealand Applicants (honestly don't know how they have survived this long!), but the wait is still such a nerve-racking process!!!
We were told we would hear by the end of September, which so happens to be next week, but hopefully we receive emails this week. But I guess we have to just think that at this point in time, no news is good news; right?
Anywho, the rest of this post will be dedicated to Disney CP Waiting for Acceptance Memes... (@dcpmemes)
