Closing Time

Even though I am no longer in Orlando, I think this section of my blog deserves a true ending.

I cannot begin to express how much the Disney College program has done for me. I made several new friends, experienced working for the mouse without being "stuck" there, and almost lived completely on my own. I grew so much during this internship. I'm not quite sure it has hit me yet that I will not be back to Walt Disney World until at least the summer, if not sooner.

Clifton and I had a bittersweet goodbye. Since we had a week long relationship and knew going into it that it would be such, it was still very sad to have to leave. I think we actually might have something. But only time will tell. If God wants it to be, He will make it known.

Brother...oh brother. I don't even know what to write about him. I miss him dearly. If anything, I think I miss him the most.

Nikki will always have a special place in my heart. Oh bestie...how I miss you.

My last two nights in Florida were interesting...and by interesting I mean I had little to no sleep. The night I packed Josh and Jason slept over. We definitely had a cuddle night. I love those boys. I never thought I'd be so happy for two boys, but surprisingly I am. Even though my husband (Jason) is cheating on me with my brother (Josh) and Clifton is cheating on Josh (his fauxbo) with me, we all still get along swimmingly :) It really is a shame that both Josh and I found someone we liked too late in the program. Go figure. My last night I slept at Clifton's, since my stuff was at his place and he was taking me to the airport. I got more sleep than I did with Josh and Jason, but not by much. That night, we learned a lot about each other. Clifton is fascinating. Basically, we talked the entire night...with sleep interrupting our conversations at some points, though neither of us really remember falling asleep.

Walt Disney World will always be a special place. My biggest fear was coming here and realizing that I didn't want to work here ever again. This is certainly not true. I'm not sure I could be friends with characters all the time, but I definitely will want to continue my friendship with them when I come back. I think being a manager would be good. All of my friends think I'd be a great manager. I care enough to make things happen the way people want them to, yet I still follow the rules. And I have great people skills. I think, besides owning Disney, a manager is my goal.

I can't wait to go back in February to see all my friends and work again. True it'll only be for a weekend, but I'll get my fill of friends and fun until the summer.

Now it's time to say goodbye to all our company.
M-I-C, see ya real soon
K-E-Y, why? Because we like you
M-O-U-S-E

Just believe and if you imagine, just believe and your dreams will come true.
