The Wait

Possibly one of the worst things about the college program comes in the form of the wait. For anyone who’s done the program before, you’ll know exactly what I’m talking about.

After the phone interview, you’ll receive an e-mail giving you a time frame of when you’ll hear back on the decision. In addition to this e-mail, you’re told to check your dashboard to check your potential progress, or lack of progress, in the event an e-mail doesn’t come your way.

After my interview, I was told I would hear back within a week. A week goes by – nothing. Well, in my mind, that was perfectly fine since I knew they were busy.

Another a week goes by, still nothing. Then the acceptances, pending decisions, and the “try again” decisions start rolling in. NOW I start to get nervous.

Just one day before it hit three weeks, just before my Intro to 2D class on September 28^th at 11AM, I checked my e-mail and my heart stopped. In my inbox was an e-mail…an e-mail saying “Congratulations.”

Somehow, against every bit of possibility I thought was possible. I somehow made it. I would be working at Disney.

With that e-mail I’m where I’m at now – two days later and still not believing that I managed to get accepted. With that e-mail, this is where you come in, reading my blog and joining me in my journey. If you have any questions, please feel free to leave a comment on any of these entries and I’ll get back to you.

Thanks for reading so far.

See ya real soon!
