Where do families go when their children are on spring break?-Apparently Disney. By the looks of my schedule, this week is going to be a bit of a challenge. Also, the fact that Daylight Savings Time just happened last night does not help me, or my sleep situation, out too much.
NEWS IN HOUSING
Tomorrow is our apartment’s first cleaning inspection! (They have boards all over Vista when the cleaning inspections are) I was assigned the job to vacuum the apartment before tomorrow. Basically, some members of the housing apartment will come check our apartment and make sure that we have not destroyed it or anything. If the housing team does not approve our apartment as being “clean”, all 6 of us have to pay $25 (yeah, that’s right $25 EACH!!) On the other hand, if our apartment passes with flying colors (which is unlikely), then we would receive the “Clean White Gloves Award” and a box of chocolates.
Remember a couple of blogs ago when I mention that I was unable to participate in Disney's Engineering Professional Development Study since the class was full? Well, here is opportunity number 2.
I am currently filling out the application for it and HOPEFULLY I will be accepted! Disney's Ultimate EnginEARing Exploration is a day-long event held at Epcot open to all Engineering majors who are on the College Program. Here is a quick run-down of what will be happening at the event:
Morning: Engineers from various departments at Disney will guide us through the maintenance areas of three attractions-giving us the insight into the mechanical, electrical/controls, structural/civil/architectural, and industrial engineering involved in creating and maintaining those attractions.
Afternoon: We will work in groups on a new attraction at Epcot and then present the group's design idea to the engineers.
After that, there is the Networking Event (the highlight) where we will have the opportunity to find out what the different types of engineers do on a day-to-day basis and ask them questions that we might have.
Obviously, this will be a HUGE opportunity and I just hope that I will be accepted! Thankfully, Disney has their Disney Career Series classes, which allows participants on the Disney College Program to take a series of courses to help out with this type of an event! (They have 6 courses in total, which include Resume Writing, Acing the Interview, and Networking 101 to name a few).
The deadline for the event is on March 16 so I better get busy with the application! BUT FIRST, it is time to go check out a vacuum for that cleaning inspection.
Have a Magical Day!
AND since I have yet shown what my costume looks like. Here’s a preview: (Believe me, these are not the ugliest costumes in Disney)
