ive been thinking and i dont know if im just getting nervous about leaving, but i dont know going this is year is the right decision. at first i was so stoked about taking a year off and going down to orlando but i just dont know anymore. im only 18 and most of my friends are going to school...and now im trying to picture myself in orlando and i dont know if i see it anymore. its a really tough decision and i dont have a lot of time to make it. im basically just ranting because i dont know what to do....
I'm exactally the same, 19 and most of my friends went to Uni... I have no doubt that I'll be going... But I'm absolutly cackin' it!!! : Just think who you're going to work for though... The Walt Disney Company... Imagine being able to say that you've worked for Walt Disney... Or on the same level... MICKEY MOUSE!!! Ha ha. Think of all the good times you'll have too! And all the friend that you will make over there. Im pretty sure it will get tough at times... But I'm sure it will feel better than having a tough day at home... Well it will for me. Honestly I think it's going to be awsome!!! Don't miss it!!! ;D
i agree with disney_geek just realise what a amazing year you will have, thats a year you'll never forget and think about all the different people you will get to know!! i think it is more interesting than uni AND the thing with your friends... i think with 18 ( i am nearly 20 so nearly the same situation) friendships are changing, and dont miss the chance, maybe if you wouldnt do it, in 10 years you say to yourself, how would it have been going there?! why i didnt went to orlando?! i would be happy getting to know you, so just think about it, if you really think it is not that what you want,than dont do it
Your not the only one. I agree with the others. Not much more to add. They said it well. Just think of all the exciting times that lay ahead. I say go for it. Give it a month or so and if you really cant do it you can go home. But my guess is you will love it. I still have so long to go. So I have yet to feel that. Though it is not like I never had some second thoughts over the year of knowing about it. And I am 22 and moved away to college too so moving is not new. One thing I found that really helps bring back the mood is reading Disney Journals of people who have been there or are already there. Talk to people who are already down there, look at pictures and find out what daily life is like for them. Another thing I notice is when friends are in school, life is pretty boring if your not. I was in that position all this year. All I had was work, all my friends who went to school later then me all had school and work. So all I did each night is sit at home and wish I was having fun. With things like MSN and facebook you can keep in touch with them well. And found this post made a while back. Just wanted to show your not the only one. And maybe you can also find advice in there too. I wish you the best of luck though. At least give it a try and if it is not you, you will know that you have tried and did not enjoy it. If you decide not to go you might not get the same chance again and spend the rest of your life wondering what it might have been like. http://www.wdwip.com/smf/index.php?topic=5505.msg177303
nykki is so right by what she is saying, if you try it you can decide if its the right decision and the tip reading and watching blogs/photos is really good, when i do it i am like " i wanna go there, NOW!"
thanks guys...im just sooo confused right now. Its just that i dont want to regret not going but i keep thinking ..why didn't i just wait until after university?? i know that everyone says that you still have fun even if your under 21 but it all jsut seems so crazy right now that its sinking in. thanks a lot for the advice
I did a 2 years and a half in university because "EVERYONE IS GOING YOU HAVE TO GO" and I took a year off and now another for this program. In all fairness your young. Do these things when you CAN! Who cares how old you are when you get your degree!
It's only natural to have emotions when ur about to leave. I've felt the same way, but then I realised that my family is behind me and theres not much difference between going to university with the amount of time you spend at home. So think of all the positives about it and how much you're going to learn and become more outgoing and all tne friends you'll make cos everyone will be in the same boat Thanks for the link too Nykki it was really helpful x
