The inspiration for this blog comes from a good friend of mine. I met her while participating in the Disney College Program in the Spring of 2007. We quickly hit it off and found out we shared a lot of interests. We're both English majors..enough said!
It has been two years since that warm January morning I arrived for check-in. I arrive to find a never ending sea of students like myself. It was overwhelming to say the least. During the first few weeks of my program, I hated it and wanted to badly to come home. However, I started slowly getting to know people and decided it wouldn't be such a bad thing to finish the program.
At the present time, two years and some change later, life seems to not have that same feeling of greatness. It is because Disney is really a magical place. Sure, it's great when you go to visit. However, working there is a completely different experience. A experience only understood by a fellow cast member. Those who have never worked at Disney could not possibly understand. As cliche as it sounds, it really is a place where dreams come true. I find myself longing for those same experiences I had while I was in Florida.
You might find yourself thinking, "Why can't he just go back?" Well, it isn't that simple. First of all I am currently in school and while I graduate in May, I can't just go back down there. My ultimate fear is that when i go back it won't be the same. Only time will tell what happens.
