about me!!

My name is Nora and I am an alumni of the Disney College Program. I worked as a custodian at Disney's Animal Kingdom from January to May 2017! While I obviously love Disney, I love a lot of other things as well! I am huge into Youtube, hanging out with my boyfriend and friends, watching shows on Netflix, eating a lot of sushi, and reminiscing about my time at Disney. I am currently working at Chuy's as a hostess, and while it's no Disney World, it is still super fun. I will be returning to school this fall. I'm excited to write about my adventures working at Disney and Disney in general and I hope that you all will come along with me!

the custodian princess diaries p.1

My first trip to Walt Disney World was when I was nine years old. I have loved Disney as far back as I can remember, but this trip brought out something in me that I had never experienced before, a want to work for a company. But this wasn’t just any company. This was the company that granted happiness to millions and millions of people each year. When we left that magical place and I gazed out the window in the backseat of my parents van at the “See ya real soon” signs, my two immediate questions were, “When can we come back?” and “When can I work here as a princess?” Little did I know, eleven years later I would be applying for my first Disney College Program where I would be working as not a princess, but a custodian. Yes. A custodian. Not a janitor, not some lady who cleans the bathroom, a custodian. A custodian was my first choice when I applied. If you’re stumbling on this blog and have no idea who I am or anything about Disney, you may be wondering why on earth I would want ...

the custodian princess diaries p.2

That first day by myself was really weird. I didn’t really know what to do. I had my pan and broom with me. I remember the first guests I helped out with. As I was walking up to Gorilla Falls, or Pangani, as all of the cast members would call it, I was stopped by this older couple heading towards the main part of Africa. “Where is the train??” They asked me. I stopped and said, “Hmm. I actually don’t know…” I pulled out a park map, and wondered what the heck they were talking about. I said to them, “You know what, why don’t you folks follow me and we’ll find it together?” They had told us in Custodial core that we could do this, so I thought why not? And there it was, two feet away from where we were standing. Rafikis Planet Watch train station. “I believe this is what you all are looking for?” “Oh yes! Thank you so much!” They said, and they smiled and went on their way. I walked away feeling accomplished and happy that I was able to help someone, even in the smallest way possible....

DCP Bucket List-Alumni Spring 2017

Before I did my DCP, I made a bucket list (like most do) and I wanted to see how much I completed from it. I will be highlighting the ones I have done and talk about it. 1.      Ride Every Ride!  (Really wanted this to happen. I was like two rides away from accomplishing this) 2.      See Every show! I am pretty sure I did this. If I didn’t see the whole thing, I think I at least saw ten minutes of every show. The only things I didn’t see were the circleramas in Epcot, but I’m not going to count those. 3.      Ride all three mountains in a row. YASSSSS!!!! Best night EVER. 4.      Meet every character. (This might have been my most unrealistic goal on this list considering a lot of the characters don't meet all the time) 5.      Take roommate photo in front of all icons. (lol not even close) 6.      Go on backstage tours. 7.    ...
