Intro...

So I finally caved--every since acceptances started going out, blogs and vlogs are spreading like wild fire around the Disney boards. I used to have one but never had time for it so we'll try this again. First, a little about me.
---I'm 22 years old (soon to be 23!) and still a huge kid at heart
---Little Mermaid is my favorite movie of all time; though people say I'm Belle in looks and personality, Ariel is still my favorite.
---I'm a theatre major and about to graduate in December; I picked my major because I wanted to one day work for Disney. My ultimate goal is to be a princess or a character---but that's a long way off, so I'm happy with where I am
--I have unhealthy obsessions with Disney and Harry Potter. Seriously, I can quote anything and have even done fanfiction of both
---I have one tattoo: a heart with a crown around it and in the heart it says "Dream". Remember the scene in Little Mermaid where Ursula pulls up a heart with a crown around it telling Ariel she has 3 days? That's it! I designed it when I was 8. It was my birthday present for my 20th birthday from my mom
---Speaking of my mom, she is the most amazing person in my life and my best friend. I'm super nervous about moving to Orlando because I have never been away from her for very long
---I got accepted into the Disney College Program as an Attractions cast member. My best friend of 4 years got accepted into Merchandise. We are both going to audition to be character performers. (I'm slowly turning him into a huge Disney nerd and I love it!)
---Despite how terrified I am of the changes and financial struggles I will face in Orlando, I have never been more excited in my life.

....so there you have it! I'm starting a new chapter in my life in January--will say goodbye to Memphis, my hometown for 19 years and saying hello to a brand new place, new job, new home, new people! I am extremely grateful that I will have my best friend by my side to help make the move a little easier...he'll be a little piece of home for me   :-)

I should have started this when I first applied, then you could have seen an email acceptance post, a purple folder post, etc. but alas, I am just starting and catching you all up. Most importantly, I'm excited about all of the friends I have made on the Disney boards...people who are waiting impatiently as I am and people who are going to share the most magical experience of our lives!

 Until next time, faith* trust* and pixie dust!
