Traditions

Today was Traditions. There were two separate sessions. Amy, Elizabeth, Nicole, and Ren had to be at the bus stop by 6:45am! Brittany, Christine, Lene, and I were at the second session so we had to be at the bus by 12:45 (much better lol.) So we got all dressed up in our professional clothes and went to the bus stop. There were so many other people there, We couldn't get on the first bus, luckliy there was a second one right behind it. We pulled up to the Disney University, which is located just past the Magic Kindgom.

Once inside we had to look at the back of our program guide to find our group number. Brittany had a different one so she went to a different group while Christine, Lene, and I got to stay together. We waited in line to get our company ID and then went into a room and chose a table to sit at. We talked about the Disney Company's expectations and standards, as well as guest services. We even played a game and answered questions to win prizes. I won a little pluto statue!

We then got to go over to the Magic Kingdom and walk backstage and through the Ultilidors under the park. We did an activity and then returned the the Disney University. The underground was cool, there were lots of people from all over the park , but it smelled like garbage.

Once back at the classroom there was a knock at the door. IT WAS MICKEY!!!! He had brought us a present! What was it? OUR NAMETAGS!!!!

After Traditions we went outside to board the bus. There were two there but they were filled. The bus driver said another one was supposed to come in a few minutes. We were stranded in the parking lot for like 15 mins before it finally came. The driver said he was only going to Chatham Square, but there were a few kids who needed to get back to Vista Way. He agreed to take them too. Once back at the apartment, Amy wanted us to come meet them at Epcot, but Christine and Lene needed to buy black shoes for tomorrow, so we decided not to meet them. Brittany and I stayed at the apartment.

  1. I think it's so cool that you are blogging about your experience. I've always wondered what it would be like to be a cast member but since I am way past collage age I will have to live it through you.
    Keep up the good work!
