Only slightly starting to panic

When i did it, it wasnt a gap year, i'd just finished college, and wasnt as uni, and wasnt taking a year out, just wanted to go and work at disney! haha

 

when i did it it was just cos i felt like it lol and this time im applying cos i enjoyed it last time so much

 

Good lord this is the truth...

 

Yeah, i did it straight out of high school. it was scary cause it was my first real experience on my own, but it was great at the same time because now i young enough to do the program again.

 

I will be 30 in the new year...you're never too old to do it I hope anyway!

 

discostu81 - u applying again?

 

I most certainly am...done my six months penance now so gotta hope Yummy give those of us who have done it before a fair crack.

 

nice one

hope you get in along with me

1 because im nice and its nice to think we would all get in

and

2 i wont be the oldest one applying ha ha ha (not at all selfish)

 

Haha!! Don't worry, I was the oldest CRP in the UK last time so I am used to being the grandad of the pavilion!

 

ill not be far behind if i get in, im 26 and will turn 27 over there ha ha

 

That's a perfectly good age to be dude! I started at 27, then turned both 28 and 29 out there!

 

howd you manage to turn 2 ages there, how long where you there for? Im bit concerned everyone else will be younger!

 

I started February '09, turned 28 at the end of April '09, was meant to finish my program at the end of January '10 but got extended 3 months so turned 29 two days before my program finished.

Don't worry about your age dude, I totally expected to be the only person in their mid-late 20's but that's totally not the case. There is plenty of people from 18 right through to my age. I was only the oldest by a couple of months.

 

ah that makes sense, nice one! You must have done well to get kept on? Where abouts in the UK do you come from? Have you got your application all sorted?

 

I did pretty damn well, don't wanna toot my own horn though! I've not done my application yet, I'm gonna work on my cover letter right up until January 5th when it re-opens.

I'm from Telford in Shropshire. What about yourself?

 

im from glasgow up in scotland Ive finished I think, ive been doing it since sept or so

 

Hey discostu you can be the grandad and I'll be the grandma lmao if i get out there ext year i turn 30 in nov

 

I still got you beat by 6/7 months then Grandma! It's a good thing, we can give worldly advice to all the youngsters on how to manage a year without getting termed!!

I had a dude from Glasgow in my start group who I lived with for a bit...homeboy sure knew how to drink!! He only did about 3 months before he found out he had been accepted as a firefighter back in Glasgow so he self-termed. I then lived with a guy from Edinburgh who was also a phenomenal drinker...see a pattern here?

 

well we scots sure know how to drink ha ha ha

im a bit panicy about getting drunk incase i start swearing (in a nice way) like this place is f***ing awesome etc and get caught by security and termed! Of course this is if i get in!

 

Hahaha!! Security are cool as long as you are always polite and courteous with them. I got one housing warning and that was for wearing a mankini when we had a movie themed party...apparently it was considered indecent exposure!! But other than that they were always sound with me. They sometimes had to come round to ask us to keep it down when we got a bit carried away with Rock Band but that was about it.
