So now that I'm ~back into the fray~...

Oh my gosh I love using these Charlotte gifs because 1) she is an AWESOME character and 2) they match my layout so well, don't you think?! But really she sums up every emotion I've had so far perfectly and WHATEVER JUST ENJOY...


I want to blog so badly right now but of course I don't have much to say. I think I just like posting for the sake of posting GIFs hehehe. Anyway I really would like to have some great interesting Disney-related posts up in this place but I'm in school for another three weeks. Once summer starts you guys (all six of you! Ha!) are gonna be sick of me posting.

Yeah so this is just gonna be my place where I talk about anything Disney-related. My friends from home and from college are sick of hearing about the CP and Disney in general as it is. At least you guys understand~

I see a lot of CP blogs that die right before the blogger usually goes off to FL. Idk if you people aren't as addicted to the internet as I am, aren't devoted, or maybe you're all just busy doing your jobs but it makes me sad because I wanna see some detailed reports, people! I won't let y'all down when (if) I get accepted! At least, I hope not.

I think when I get out of school I will make a great big post of Things I Want To Do During The CP and then I can make it my goal to do that stuff. Of course I'm sure it'll all be stupid like Take 1,234 photos (Honestly, with my track record I could do that in about a week) and Ride Tower of Terror 20 Times in a Row (PLEASEPLEASEPLEASE I'm sure someone will do that with me!) but I wanna do it and that's that!

Umm all I have to say is, if any of you guys are going crazy waiting to apply (or waiting to move down to FL for all y'all who already got accepted, hmph!) honestly just leave me a comment. I'm ALWAYS willing to talk about Disney and I love being able to communicate with you guys.

Also a little disclaimer. I'm not from the South. I don't know why I say y'all but I do and i hope it doesn't offend y'all. (teehee) (Also I hope my overuse of parentheses isn't annoying [just kidding I don't care {are brackets ok?}])

OH P.S. NOT DISNEY RELATED BUT COLLEGE RELATED INDEED! I chose a major! HISTORY! Well, I will apply for the School of Education - Secondary Education with a focus in Social Studies (that's where the Hist degree comes in). Yippeeee! Actually this was a very hard decision as I'm used to a life with my parents' income...I am very fortunate to have two parents who work very hard to make very nice salaries and I just know my mom is crying because I won't go to med school or law school or clown college but I gotta follow my dreams, yo! Even if that means having a tiny salary! Ehhhh.

Phew

this was me up til 2 days ago hehe

Am I overdramatic? Welllll, maybe a little. :P

Nothing is set in stone, but I am still pursuing the 2011 DCP!

My initial plan for college was to try to get my degree in 7 semesters rather than the typical 8, which would give me room to do the CP and still graduate "on time" (aka in 4 years). Unfortunately it took me a while to finally decide on a major which set me back only slightly, and then I found out my education degree requires a ton of classes and "field work" which makes it almost impossible to finish in less than 8 semesters (unless I took a full term of summer classes which I can't do!)

So my dilemma was give up the program entirely, wait til I'd graduated (which means I couldn't do the CP til Fall 2013! And if I didn't get accepted that would be my last chance), or take the semester off to do the CP and graduate a semester later than planned.

It looks like I will graduate a semester late. I thought graduating "on time" was so important that I was ready to give up the CP. But after a lot of thinking I realised I'd be a fool not to jump at this opportunity that I will never get again! So, hopefully, I will still being applying for Fall 2011. :) I wouldn't want it any other way!

Thanks guys so much for all your words of support. I appreciate it more than I can express.

Seeya in Florida. ;P

Oh dear

Remember when my biggest concern was that I might not be able to keep my scholarship if I went to Disney? I would.

Or that I might not stay on my parents' insurance if I was on a leave of absence from school? I would.

Or that I just might not get accepted? Well this is iffy, but I've pretty much assured myself that I have what Disney is looking for and that's what I'm sticking with! I would!

Well, none of that matters now. My academic advisor pretty much told me I can't afford to "waste my time doing ~whatever~ in Florida."

Oh. :(

So yeah. It doesn't look too good. I'm really sad about this, you guys. I was so ready for the CP. I learned so much about the CP, spent hours and hours reading blogs and watching vlogs and combing through the Disboards for as much information as possible and I was really truly excited. And now apparently if I want to graduate, no, I will not get to do the College Program.

I had so many reasons why Fall 2011 was perfect for me... it'd be right after the new Pirates movie came out, I'd be there for my birthday (let alone Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years!), Food and Wine Festival, and the Fortieth Anniversary of WDW. Not to mention all the friends I'd get to make from all over the country. People who share the same love for Disney as I do. My mom is trying to assure me that we can work it out, but I really don't think there's anything we can do at this point, and she didn't really want me to do the CP to begin with.

I just feel so silly for telling all my friends, all my peers, all my relatives how I was totally going to do the CP. I'd been dreaming about it for the last six months. I don't know how I'll be able to enjoy all the holidays in 2011 that I'd been so looking forward to being in WDW for. How can I sit at home on Thanksgiving and not think "I could be in WDW right now."? It breaks my heart.

Anyway... I guess it's better that I know this now, rather than right before it's time to apply. I'm still secretly hoping that, even a month from now, I'll be able to come back on here and post "Nevermind!!! I'm doing the CP!!!" I would love that so much. But it isn't looking good.

So good luck to all you guys who read this blog, even if I can't apply myself, I'll still be rooting for all of you who apply!

Love

Molly
