It all started 8Months ago.. it was last October when I first find out about the Disney International College Program. I received an email from the career department at my university. I was so excited to find out that the job opportunities are open to the Aussies and Kiwis!!! THIS WAS SO ME!..* i couldn`t Let go of this idea so ii...*RAN TO MUMMY*
Words of a Wise Mother: ''GO for it DARLING''


Next Step was Information Session. I dragged my Best Friend Tiffany who happends to do the EXACT SAME COURSE as me to it. She wasn't too keen at the time but came with me neway && AT THE END of that session WE were both Over the Moon. During the presentation we watched few of short videos explaining all the key roles, accommodation, and the Disney benefits that we will receive. The presentation made us even more keen to be part of the Disney cast. So guess who were the First people in line at the *SIGN UP HERE * desk.

Very Same Day we got interviewed *together* (inseperable). && two weeks Later:

 I got another email from Ashleigh at STB. This time the email said:
