If you've ever applied for the Disney College Program, you know the rollercoaster of emotions that comes along with the application process. You feel nervous, excited, happy, discouraged, nervous again; it's really a never-ending cycle until it's over. You convince yourself that you won't check your email one hundred times a day and drive yourself crazy, yet there you are, staring at your email and the Disney jobs dashboard while refreshing the pages every couple of minutes. You're not alone, we all go through it.

Here's my take on the Disney College Program application process as told by our favorite Disney characters!

1. Staring at your computer, waiting for the application to drop.


2. When the application finally drops.

3. How you feel before starting the application vs. how long it actually takes to complete it.

4. When you check your dashboard for the first time and see status: Applied.

5. And the next time.

6. And the next 100 times after that...


7. When you get that "Your Next Step: Web-Based Interview" email.

8. Before starting your WBI.

9. During the WBI.

10. When you see "Congratulations" and get to schedule your phone interview... it's really happening!

11. Preparing for your PI.

12. The day of your interview.


13. While you're on the phone with your recruiter.

14. When you hang up and realize that the only thing left is finding out if you made it!

15. Waiting to hear back from your phone interview.

16. And waiting...

17. Slowly starting to lose your mind, but waiting... it still says "Under Review" so that's good, right?

18. Joining the Facebook group with all the other DCP candidates.

19. Reading everyone's posts and realizing you've found the people that truly understand your Disney obsession.

20. Constantly checking the group, stressing and waiting with all your new found, Disney-loving friends.

21. Stalking the recruiters' twitter pages to find out everything you can about the current status of things.

22. When the first wave of offers starts.

23. The Facebook group during the offer wave.

24. When everyone is posting about their offers, but you still haven't gotten anything yet.

25. The moment you check your email and see the subject line: "Disney College Program: Congratulations!"

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
