Hooray!!!!!!!

I GOT IT I GOT IT I GOT IT!!!! I am going to be a character performer in Disney World! Let me just give a run down of what happened when I found out. First of all I had just got off the phone with my mom when I see on my computer that there was a new email in my inbox saying Disney College Program: Character Audition Results. My stomach dropped and I did a little freak out. I turned to my roommate and said, "It's in my inbox!" She was like, what's in your inbox? And I just had a very concerned look on m y face and she knew right away. She kept yelling open it open! And then I clicked over to my email and there it was:

Congratulations! You passed your recent Walt Disney World® Character Audition and will be invited to participate in a Character Performer Role in the Disney College Program!!

I screamed and cried and jumped up and down and my roommate was doing that with me! It was such an amazing moment because I know how hard it is to get character. And 5'2'' (Chipmunk height) is a hard height range to get. I was just so excited and proud of myself and I'm telling you I'm still on a high from yesterday. I still just can't believe it! I won't know exactly what characters I will be until I arrive there. But I know for sure I will be a base character like the chipmunks so I am so excited I love them! Plus it's a possibility that they already have me in mind for something else, or even that they could pull me for something else so I am so excited. I can't wait to go and make the magic happen with all of my new friends!

The funny part of this whole thing is that I thought I had bombed the character audition. Like the lady kept looking at me, but I was like...she's probably just look at me cause I can't dance whatsoever! Haha But apparently they saw what they needed in me! I'm so excited and can't wait to find out more when I get there. My position should be changing soon on the Disney College Program website in a couple of days and I'll let you know when that happens! Well that's it for now. Have a Magical Day!!!
