AHHHHHHH!

It's really creeping up on me! In 5 weeks and 2 days I check in, that's basically the same time from Halloween until now, and that feels like yesterday. There's a little get together tonight for all the IU CPers going down this spring that I intend to go to to make some friends, ask some questions, and get free pizza x.O

So since I can hardly think about anything else right now, here are some goals and worries and expectations etc. that I have right now about this spring.

Goals:

• I want to eat at all the nice restaurants at all the country show cases in the world pavilion. 
• I'm going to buy a full kitchen set to use someday in my future home so that every time I do something in the kitchen (obviously every day) I will be reminded of the most magical semester of my life.
• I'm going to get super into pin trading. I've never had the time or money in the past on my vacations to try it, but since I'm going to be there and have everything at my disposal from January through May, I am going to become obsessed. I can't wait to get a good collection going on a super cool lanyard and trade with guests :D
• I'm going to get a beautiful huge snow globe to go with the Peter Pan one I got last time. Starting an opulent snow globe collection too to go on my mantle someday.
• I am going to ride EVERY ride and go to EVERY show in EVERY park. Even though I've been 5 or 6 times, I am still no where close lol.
• Find as many hidden Mickey's as possible!
• Meet and befriend the Pocahontas in Fantasmic. That is the most epic moment of any live night snow in Disney.

Worries:

• I'm worried I will be slow to catch on and get in the swing of things at work or have a huge line and mess up ringing something up and have to redo it and all the other various things that randomly happen as a cashier that I am familiar with that weren't a big deal at all at the Zoo or Convention Center, but this is Disney... I feel like I can't mess up at all. 
• The tunnels. I have a good sense of direction, but I've heard they're a real labyrinth. What if I'm running late to work and I loose my way in the tunnels or one is blocked off for maintenance or something! This worry is really about being late as much is it is about getting lost. I will have my car so I don't have to rely on the buses, so that is good. I can at least get to the park on time I guess.
• All I want is to make Magic happen for people. I'm so worried about letting someone down. Everybody makes mistakes, but I don't want to disappoint a guest if I'm having an exceptionally bad day and accidentally let it show through my Disney Smile or if there's something they want and we don't have it.
• I'm also worried about ruining the Magic for myself. I obviously know the characters are in costumes and there are tunnels under the park and big lots in between things hidden by trees yada yada yada, I'm talking about my saint-like perception of Disney as a company. I just hope it lives up to what I've always dreamed of it being. I'm not saying I doubt Disney, otherwise I wouldn't love it so much, I'm just acknowledging that possibility because my expectations are so high.

Misc.:

• Make some lifelong Disney friends who share my passion for Disney and understand 8:D
• Make at least one connection that will help me in the long run.
• No coulda woulda shoulda.
