To-do/Top 5 List Update!

(17) Days until check in
(13) Days until I leave for Orlando
(8) Days until Charlie St. Cloud
(0) Days until Ramona & Beezus

1. Buy a car. I'm really close on this one guys. Ruby is being totaled. So I must find something else. The insurance company is only giving my 6,000 so I need something affordable but quality. I've found something I like. I just need to convince my dad to like it too.

2. Find an apartment in Boone for Spring 2011. So far I've had no luck. I've only found two real possibilities and neither one of them got back to me. But I'm going to keep looking until I leave and after I leave (if I haven't found anything by then). (Now to be done in October while I'm in Florida).

3. Finish filling out my W4. This is all I have left of my on boarding paperwork.

4. Find my birth certificate or have a Passport made. This is for check in. I either need a passport or my driver's license and birth certificate.

5. Buy a pair of dress flats for my "Non-costumed" Disney look. I need a pair of black flats to go with my Disney professional clothing. 

 6. Apparently I have to add "Get renter's insurance" to this list. Ugh. (To be done as soon as I move into one of the CP apartments).


Find My Birth Certificate:

So my adventure today was ALL about getting this done. Only Forsyth County's court and government buildings are so spread out that it took us FOREVER to find the Office of Deeds. We walked in the heat (and in circles) for HOURS. I, however, learned that Forsyth County has a "Hall of Justice" which really made the comic book nerd in me happy. But I'm now sunburned from all the outside walking. (And exhausted).

Tomorrow I plan on filming and editing a vlog about the classes I plan on taking, and I'm also going to start filming things for packing vlog. :)

We're into crunch time now, people! I'm so excited!

Next Wednesday will be my last day for my internship, and then next Saturday will be my Send-Off part with my family friends (which I am BEYOND excited for!) My friend Holly is now coming with us to Orlando. She's going to be hanging out with me while I get settled at Disney and then leaving with my parents on the morning of August 11th. She's never been to Disney and I can not wait to get her down there! We're also going to go to Islands of Adventure and pay a visit to Hogsmeade as we're both HUGE Harry Potter fans. (I fully intend on buying a wand).


That's all for now!


Until next time, have a magical day!

Finish filling out my W-4:

DONE! My on boarding paperwork is done! Woooo! One less thing to worry about!

I was going to go to the courthouse today to get a few copies of my birth certificate, but mom told me to wait until July 30th (her day off) so she could go with me. Now I just have to go to the bank tomorrow and nag dad to check on renter's insurance. :)

That's all for today! Until next time, have a magical day!

Top 5 Things I MUST Do Before I Leave for Florida

Today's Top 5 has to do with preparing to leave school and arrive at the CP. These are the top 5 most important things for me to do before I even start to pack.

5. Find 4 apartment-mates so that Michelle and I can get into a 3 Bedroom apartment.

Right now this is at the bottom of my priority list but as I take care of the other four it will work it's way up. Michelle and I want to be in a 3 Bedroom because rent ist cheaper so we need 4 other roomies. We may have two more lined up but we have to see how a few things pan out. So we're still for sure looking for 2 more.

4. Make sure SOMEONE fixes my car.

I need my car. Right now Ruby the Escahpay isn't feeling very well and no one can tell me what's wrong. I wish there was a Dr. House of mechanics that would be awesome. My dad's going to try and find someone to fix it by Spring Break, but we'll see if that happens.

3. Visit my advisors and inform them of why I won't be registering for Fall classes.

I have made advising appointments for the week after Spring Break to inform my advisors where I'll be going and when I'll be contacting them to register for Spring classes. I'm very excited about it, but I'm nervous as well. My Advertising Advisor knows nothing about the program and he didn't seem very thrilled about me applying.

2. Visit Sharon in Career Development to discuss the necessary paperwork

Sharon is the amazing Disney Rep for my school's Career Development Center. She helped me figure out the possible complications like insurance and financial aid before I even applied. She gave me to do lists for after I got in and tips for the phone interview. I'm going to meet with her to discuss the forms I need to fill out before I leave. Some of the questions on them are phrased in a scary way. I don't want them to think I'm dropping out.

1. Call the registrar and schedule my senior audit.

This is my second to last semester and as such I must have the registrar office tell me how close I am to graduating. Some time in the next week I need to call and set up my audit. My very last semester of College will be the semester after I get back from the CP so I need to go ahead and have that done.

Until next time, have a magical day!
