[Jordan0301]

It will change your life if you let it! :)

College Program is the reason I am who I am.

I started as a CP butler at the Haunted Mansion, then got into Entertainment (check the sig if you're curious), then ended up in Tokyo, then an Equity actor, then a sunt performer, and now a Creative Developer and Show Writer for Universal Studios...and I owe it all to my CP.

Side note, get there super early on check in day to claim the best bed/bedroom in your appartment ;)

What do you want to do in Ent?

[Melanie]

Super congrats! Please do let us know where you'll be. I'll definitely come by and say hi! :mickey:

Oh definitely! I grew up going on this ride (my family would always stop by when we were on vacation). And when I started doing the CP, I would always come back on my own (and request the Westen show- even back then it was my favorite version :blush:). I love seeing other GMR fans :)

I think you are my new best friend! haha i LOVE western! :D i always have to request it!

What do you want to do in Ent?

I think this is so true for me too.....the CP program changed my life. I had always wanted to do this (I chose my college based on whether or not they offered the Disney internship) and every job I got after graduating always hired me because I worked for DISNEY. I brought everything I learned there to every job I had. I was a merchandise hostess in Disney and yet I volunteered at Give Kids the World, I worked in different stations outside of my store in AK doing different things-thanks to my awesome managers who knew I wanted to do more with my time there, sang in the Candlelight Processional etc etc. It is what you put into it.....and will change your life if you let it!!! I highly agree! My family thought I wasn't going to come home and some don't!!! My goal is when my hubby and I are retired I will move there and work there again someday :)
Maybe you will end up staying, maybe you will end up returning every year for a week to keep up your CM CP status, or maybe you will end up getting a FABULOUS job doing what you love back home after graduating because you worked for THE MOUSE :) No matter what....learn as much as you can...(do get there early to get the best room! LOL), make lasting friendships, and have a blast!!!

[Kathy Jetson]

Congrats thats so exciting! My son will be 7 on Sunday and I'm already trying to talk him into doing it:silly::blush:
