Hello everyone!
It has been a while since I have posted about Disney. A lot has happened since Halloween season. We are now in full blown Christmas at Disney World. We have had all our Christmas parties and the parks are getting more and more crowded. The opening of New Fantasyland was very successful, with it being the largest expansion in Magic Kingdom history. We have a new restaurant called "Be Our Guest" which is a Beauty and the Beast themed restaurant that is very good.

We have had a few Disney College Program events for the interns to have some fun since I last posted. Below is a picture of me and a few friends meeting Russel from Up. This picture is from our winter formal where we danced, ate great food, and could meet characters from Up, Cinderella, Peter Pan,and Alice and Wonderland. It was definitely a lot of fun. We even caught Russel dancing "Gangnam Style."

It was very rewarding to be given this dance in appreciation for all our hard work. We also had fun dressing up, since we all wear Disney clothes most of the time.

My family also came to visit me in the beginning of December! It was all four of us back together again in Disney after at least 10 years since we'd all been there. We had such a great time and I was able to spend a lot of time with them in the parks. Hanging out together and enjoying Disney was so much fun, especially since Jacob was able to come as well. We hit all four parks, finishing up with Magic Kingdom where we enjoyed New Fantasyland and the Christmas festivities. Here we are in front of the castle all lit up for Christmas.

Since my parents trip, we had a graduation ceremony for the Disney College Program participants leaving in January. There I received my certificate of completion for my program as well as my "Ducktorate" for finishing my class in "Marketing You."

I feel very accomplished that I have made it all the way through, because it has been a lot of hard work and many people did not complete their programs. I have another 10 days of work and then I pack up and go home. I really miss all the family I would have seen this holiday season, but this really has been a once in a lifetime opportunity. Thank you everyone for your support and "see you real soon!"
