Just over a month to go!

I have been terrible with keeping up with my blog! Things have been crazy over the past few weeks//months! Where to begin? So I guess with the fact I have my visa!! The process wasn't as scary as I thought, the worst part was filling in the DS-160 form online. It was the most stressful two hours of my life! I need to apologise to my brother who made the terrible mistake of asking me a question half way through, which nearly resulted in me crying for about half an hour!!

The form itself - well, the main issue is with timing out -- which it did, ALOT! It says that if you are inactive for 20 minutes then this will happen, but that's not so true, more like 5! Luckily you can log back in, but just make sure you save, save, save! There are also some questions which you don't expect, such as when/if have you visited the United States & for how long.... we also worked out that ((at the time that I filled the form)) the school questions only apply to males.... strangely.....

So anyway, once your DS160 is complete, and you have your printout's it is visa time! Now unless you are Nate (ha you got your mention :P) then hopefully you will be in and out quickly, but be advised, get the earliest appointment possible! I was at 8am, and was done by 9am... with alittle bit of chatting with other CRP'ers inbetween! The interview was nice and simple, the interview himself was lovely, nice American twang to get you in the mood for the year away!!

So other than that I've just been working alot, managed to get a temping job! There have been a few Disney meet-ups around visa appointment days which have been lovely! Have met some gorgeous people who I know I'm going to have a blast with!!!


So I guess now I've just got to wait, am still needing to pay my non-refundable fee which seems like it will be around 3 weeks before your departure date, the rest I guess is just nerves/excitement/adrenalin/fear all wrapped up into one!!!!

104 days.....

YEAH!! So I totally have a countdown going on till the day I fly....((Courtesy of facebook countdowns, I salute you...)) It is indeed 104 days until I fly to Orlando, and therefore 107 days till I move into my home for that coming year **come on the commons**...

So where to start? I guess the reason as to why I have created this amazing space for my intellectual and original thoughts(?!?!) mainly, so that my mummy and daddy can keep track on where I am//what I'm doing! Also, I like to jump on bandwagons... :)

Things have been totally crazy since I found out I was going to WDW, I was on the waitlist for a grand total of 145 days before I found out I had a position in Merchandise at the UK Pavilion, and these past three weeks have been crazy!! I have been lucky enough to have the fan-dooby help of the Yummy Job team, and have my flight, insurance, CRB and first nights accomodation in Orlando all booked and paid for!! So now it's time to relax until my Visa forms come through, which should be a while now!!

So anyway, I will update as things happen, but at the moment it's really just me annoying my friends and family till they want to pull out their hair ((and mine)) because... I'M MOVING TO DISNEYWORLD IN 104 DAYSSSS!!!!

Loves <3
