F2F Canada Interviews

hahahaha thats awesome!!

 

haha well it's the truth! Shaking hands seems so foreign to me!

 

shaking hands is for professional meet and greets! Not friend meet and greets!

 

Youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu got it!

Granted, if a Disney rep ever told me face to face "hey, you're hired" - I'd probably be inclined to give them a massive hug! I'm uncontrollable in such situations! So it's a good thing they let you know over the phone, then they won't see my crazy face

 

I have to make sure I don't get hysterical when that moment comes! I cried with Nicola on the phone when she told me I got in ICP in 06! Tried not to let her know though! The hysteria came when I hung out! I just don't want Kristen to think i'm a wacko! lol!

 

Nah, Kristen is awesome - I'm sure she'd understand and be pumped to get that kind of reaction out of people! Means they picked the right ones!

Though I'll definitely have to maintain a level of controlled excitement... and then run out into the street afterward and start my own celebratory Disney parade

 

lol same here! I need to learn control!

 

hahaha you guys are actually hillarious, you're freaking my dog out cause im laughing so hard... actually it's more of a cackle then just a laugh. its embarassing really lol. but we wont seem like such wackos if we all end up reacting the same way, right? the ones who dont hold onto kristen for dear life, thanking her repetedly, tears streaming down and doing happy dances, well then THEY'LL seem like the weird ones! there...now i feel better!

 

exactly ;D

You're not cool unless you react like a crazy psycho! lol!

 

level of craziness is proportional to the level of love for the opportunity!

 

awee well said! I like it!

 

Ker-ay-zee kooky people rock at life! *fist pump*

Having a room full of such fab people at the interview will be awesome! It'll help ease the nerves, that's for sure!

 

welll we can def all relate which makes a huge difference! The fact that we know eachother even just a bit will really help!

 

For sure! I don't think that when I first applied to the ICP in 2006 that I really used this site until after the face to face interview. So it'll be a new experience even for me because it actually won't be a room of strangers!

 

same here

 

Same with me when I did the ICP, I didn't knowa about this site until after the interview. Sure would've been helpful, lol, but it worked out in the end!

I don't see how anyone could not be super excited if they got the news that they were going to Disney World. Plus everyone's a little bit crazy anyway! There's a saying that goes "Normal is only a setting on your dishwasher".

 

oh em gee that is officially my new quote to life!! haha It's going on my facebook quotes! lol I love it! It's so true!!

 

aahahahaha I love it!!!! Makes me feel much better about myself!

 

If I recall, when I get that call from Nicola saying I made it through I couldn't speak and she said "Are you still there?" and then I mustered out how happy I was and I was crying the whole time - noticeably I'm sure lol. I just didn't actually think it would happen... not sure why but this time around I am full of confidence in all of us. We are great people and will represent our country proudly! YAY US!

PS: Matt, that is a great quote - never heard that one.

 

See I was in class when Nicola called me, and she just left a voice mail on my cellie saying I was accepted into the program and to call her back if I was game! I honestly sat in that chair for I don't know how long, just replaying the message over, and over, and over, and over - I was seriously in disbelief! Then I ran into my roomie's room and started screaming that I was a Cast Member, then ran out just as quickly to grab the phone and catch Nicola before she left for work! I just started talking a mile a minute I'm pretty sure, I don't even know how she knew who was speaking. I was just like "HI!!! IT'SSHANANYOUCALLEDMEBUTIWASINCLASSI'MREALLYSORRYBUTYOUSAIDIWASACCEPTEDINTOTHEICPANDI'MREALLYEXCITEDANDJUSTWANTEDTOTELLYOUTHATMYANSWERISYESYESYESYESYES"

...yeah... something to that effect...

Then I shared the news with my mum who was driving at the time, and she got so wrapped up in me flipping off the wall that she ended up getting lost and had to hang up to figure out where the heck she was

Yup, that phone call was definitely one of the best feelings I've ever, ever had
