Two Months To Go

October 5th 2008=The day I fly over to Florida and start my internship at Walt Disney World.

And in my mind, it can not come around fast enough!

Where did it all begin? I guess it started last summer, aimlessly trawling the Internet for something interesting to do after university. It was then that I came across the Walt Disney World International Graduate Program. Six months living and working in the most magical place on Earth complete with a graduate programme at the University of Central Florida sounded perfect for me. I wanted to apply there and then, but it took until the following Spring to work up enough courage to even send off the e-mail. It took until June to get down to London for the interview and then one agonising week later to find out I'd got the job. I was ecstatic and accepted straight away (even though I had no clue what the role of "lobby concierge" even entailed...in fact, I still don't two months later).

The only problem with it is the funds. There's the tuition fees, not to mention having to pay for flights and visas and a million other things, so I'm stuck in a crappy soul destroying job in a miserable little call centre until then. I guess a girl's got to finance her dreams somehow.
