Chapter 2: The Countdown.

"Congratulations! You have been accepted to take part in the Disney College Program! Please complete these 3 steps to accept this offer. If not completed within 10 days, your response will be taken as declined."

The steps were pretty simple and should not take anyone 10 days unless the following are relevant:
1. The person needs time to think about the offer.
2. You are deathly ill in the hospital.
3. You passed out because of dehydration due to excitement and it took you several days to rehydrate and recover.

If the first....WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU? Disney just offered you a position to live on their property, PAY YOU, and let you work at the place where magic happens everyday. Excuse me, but how high is your fever? We should get you to a hospital right away.

If the second or third, I'm sorry about your illness and I hope you recover quickly. I know how intense the happy dance can get. That's serious business.

Today, I completed my 3 steps to magic. I paid my fees, confirmed my arrival date, and filled out the paperwork needed for the program. I am officially in the Disney College Program. I will be arriving to my Vista Way Apartment on May 21.

83 Days from now.

"But Peter, how do we get to Neverland?" I plan on driving my trusty Honda Civic to Florida, but using the wonderful Disney transportation system as much as possible while there.

The excitement of being on my own and living out my dream for 8 months is still unbelievable. As the countdown begins, I realize I have about two and a half months to get my self together and move to a whole other state. A big deal for a girl who is, currently, still living at home. Nervous? A little. Excited? Unimaginably. Ready to go, now? Most definitely.

Let the adventure begin.
