There wasn't any doubt I'd sign up for this! I wish I had known about the DCP wayyyyyy back when I was in college. Now I can live vicariously through your experience!
How exciting about doing the college program. Hope it's everything u make it to be.
Im in!
I did the DCP in Fall 2011 and it was the best experience of my life! I want to go back after I graduate next year as well! I believe that any job you have, if you make the best of it you will have the time of your life! Just an FYI, disney gives you a mailbox for your apartment and thats where your letters and stuff go but they will call your apartment once packages arrive and you would have to pick them up at the office!
If you need anything else answered, don't hesitate!
ALICIA I absolutely love this thread I love reading about your experience and seeing how everything turned out for you! You're an inspiration to me, your mini-twin I am so excited to hear about your costuming job... I'm sure it's going to be really cool! And the fact that you make a little extra money is awesome. Enjoy your time there - I will be living vicariously through you! Can't wait for the next update
Congratulations on this new adventure!
I found your YOLO trip report and loved it. I laughed so much and decided to keep reading your other ones. You are just too sweet. We are going to Disney in February and your reports have made me so excited.
I have a 6 year old little girl and because of your reports, I will be buying her a Vinylmation so that she can do some trading.
I can't wait to hear about all the fun things that you do!

Congrats! so excited for you!
you are seriously sooo amazing! so much talent you have!
can't wait to read more!!!!
subbing my stepdaughter starts college this fall and she didnt even know about the DCP! I just told her yesterday and she says "why isnt everyone doing this?!?!"
haha so I'm curious about your adventure for myself and for her!
I'm already prepping my daughters for the experience when they are older (they are 9,8 & 5 and I'm already telling them about it hahahaah
OH my golly, I swear your last post made my heart go all pitter-patter I have been sewing rather simple things for a long time, but just this past year decided that I wanted to really learn how to do garment construction so I could sew for my kiddos and myself. I've had a blast learning, but I am still an amateur at best. The costumes you designed, drafted, and sewed are amazing! I hope that you will LOVE working in the costuming dept.

Congrats on getting into the CP! I have been lurking on your other TR's for a few weeks and I am enjoying them a lot. I have always wanted to do the CP, but I had a friend who did it and really did not like it, so I kind of shyed away from it...Then life became super busy and I kind of missed my calling since I graduated last december. So needless to say, I am very excited to read all about your experience!
You are extremely talented! I loved looking at all the costumes you've made. We're big musical theater and dance fans in my family, so this is right up my alley.
Nothing wrong with some good old Disney bedding. When I was like 20 i had the whole Lion King bedding
I really like the bedding you got she doesnt look scary at all and purple my fav too
Just read all of your updates! I'm so happy that you decided to have this up while you're working at DISNEY!!!
Your costuming skills are so AWESOME! When you mentioned bits and pieces of it in your TR, I just couldn't quite imagine all of it. The pictures are amazing! You're so talented!
Can't wait to read more!
All your costuming/stage make-up experience looks so fun! I only got as far as my own stage makeup and dealing my pointe shoes/tutus before I had to give up dance. I love following stage/costuming blogs so more detail is better. I think being in costuming sounds better than being in attractions or BBB, but working backstage was always my favorite part of performances. There's such a great camaraderie.
I think your bedding is cute, even though I'm partial to Ariel sheets. I had an Ariel set as a kid and it was one of my favorites. Have you checked Amazon? I feel like you can find anything on there!
I am here and loving this!
You do SUCH a good job on all of the costumes!
I am very happy that you get to have this experience. I cannot wait for the day to come when I get to do the DCP. It is like my dream!
I can't wait for more updates!
I'm here, too!
I LOVE your story on how you have gotten to where you are!! I'm so excited for you to experience DCP!!
I am SO impressed with your costuming abilities, that is so awesome! I truly hope you go far in whatever you do!!
I truly hope your DCP experience is a great one, and you want to extend your time there!! Do you think you would want to work there permanantly?
Ben and I went to the drive-in to watch Brave too!! I really enjoyed it, but it wasn't my fave Disney movie.
I just had to laugh at you and your bedding situation! I'm 24 and married and was looking at Disney bedding on the Disney Store website yesterday and was all kinds of upset that they don't make Disney bedding for queen beds!! What is with that?!
ROFL at your new bedding set. I think it's PERFECT for your new endeavor. AND I am the exact same way and I would have opened it to check and make sure that the princess didn't have a creepy/ugly face.
Glad that you had a good time at the movies!

I'm following along!! I'm moving to Kissimmee next month! Can't wait to read more!!
YAY!!! I am so glad to hear that I am not the only one. I am also lucky because any time Andy sees ANYTHING Disney that can go in a bedroom/bathroom/or kitchen he always says "I ca't wait until we get our Disney house!!!" how did I ever luck out with such a guy
I am afraid that they will have me doing laundry forever but there is always room for improvement. Maybe one day someone will lose a button and I'll be able to show off my skills
