If you've ever applied for the Disney College Program, you know the rollercoaster of emotions that comes along with the application process. You feel nervous, excited, happy, discouraged, nervous again; it's really a never-ending cycle until it's over. You convince yourself that you won't check your email one hundred times a day and drive yourself crazy, yet there you are, staring at your email and the Disney jobs dashboard while refreshing the pages every couple of minutes. You're not alone, we all go through it.

Here's my take on the Disney College Program application process as told by our favorite Disney characters!

1. Staring at your computer, waiting for the application to drop.


2. When the application finally drops.

3. How you feel before starting the application vs. how long it actually takes to complete it.

4. When you check your dashboard for the first time and see status: Applied.

5. And the next time.

6. And the next 100 times after that...


7. When you get that "Your Next Step: Web-Based Interview" email.

8. Before starting your WBI.

9. During the WBI.

10. When you see "Congratulations" and get to schedule your phone interview... it's really happening!

11. Preparing for your PI.

12. The day of your interview.


13. While you're on the phone with your recruiter.


14. When you hang up and realize that the only thing left is finding out if you made it!

15. Waiting to hear back from your phone interview.

16. And waiting...

17. Slowly starting to lose your mind, but waiting... it still says "Under Review" so that's good, right?

18. Joining the Facebook group with all the other DCP candidates.

19. Reading everyone's posts and realizing you've found the people that truly understand your Disney obsession.

20. Constantly checking the group, stressing and waiting with all your new found, Disney-loving friends.

21. Stalking the recruiters' twitter pages to find out everything you can about the current status of things.

22. When the first wave of offers starts.

23. The Facebook group during the offer wave.

24. When everyone is posting about their offers, but you still haven't gotten anything yet.

25. The moment you check your email and see the subject line: "Disney College Program: Congratulations!"

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.
