One More Day!

Tomorrow is my final day in my college town of Kennesaw. It is very bittersweet. I had to say goodbye to everyone at work today, and that was so hard because they are like a family to me. Luckily lots of my co workers come to Disney frequently so I will be able to catch up with them! I have to say goodbye to my boyfriend tomorrow, that will suck. But on the bright side of things I am heading to ORLANDO!

I got my DORMS check in time (10-11am) so I am going to meet my roomies (they all have the same time) about 30 minutes before we head in. I am finally about 95% packed. I just have to place everything in my backseat, my trunk is loaded. Here is my final packing vlog.



I can't wait to share my journey with everyone!!!
See ya real soon Orlando!

All about DORMS

DORMS is Disney's new (ish) system for housing registration. I have mixed opinions about the new system. I think it makes things 100% easier from Disney's perspective, but I also think it is less fair for residents. When I did my Spring 2012 College Program I lined up at Vista Way at 3am to get first dibs on housing choices. Now everything is done online, and you aren't really given any choices.

I made a vlog to explain the DORMS process.


Here are some helpful tips for the DORMS process:

•Make sure you have your vehicle tag # and drivers license # handy if you are bringing a car
•Select a leader in your group of roomies (this person will log in first)
•Be ready to rank housing options that will fit your group and larger (example: 6 girls don't have to rank 1 and 2 bedrooms)
•Make sure after the leader logs in and ranks the housing options that each roommate logs in one at a time. If you all log in together it will mess things up in the system
•You have the chance to go back and print everything after the fact, so don't freak out if your printer isn't handy when you complete the process.
•I got my email 13 days prior to my program (not 10)
•Keep calm and DORMS on :)
