"A Dream is a Wish Your Heart Makes"- Disney

Ok- so today I am going on a tangent about the Disney College Program...

So my goal in life, as we know, is to work in the tourism industry. Well, in two weeks I am catching a plane to Orlando, Fla. I can't believe this is happening. I am taking spring quarter off from ONU and traveling to Disney to participate in their college program for the next four and a half months. During my stay I will be doing attractions and taking a marketing course. As a public relations major I find this program very beneficial. PR professionals have to possess strong communications skills. I also feel that this will create a myriad of networking opportunities.

Downtown Disney

So, I am working attractions. I will be given a specific location when I arrive in Orlando at one of the four Disney parks. I really hope I am at placed in the Magic Kingdom or Disney Hollywood Studios because those (in my opinion) are the two busiest parks. Actually, to be more specific, I hope I get an attraction where I have to act out a part like the Jungle Cruise, The Great Movie Ride or the Hollywood Tower of Terror!

Lastly, I am taking a marketing course while I am participating in the program. I haven't decided whether I want to take Hospitality and Tourism or Corporate Communications.... :/ I think both would be very beneficial to me as a professional so I'll let you know when I decide.
