Thoughts Everyone Has Before Starting the DCP
The Odyssey Online

Not that I'm counting or anything, but my Disney College Program starts in precisely 22 days! It's absolutely crazy. It feels like I just got the acceptance email, and now I'm about to embark on this huge adventure in just a couple of weeks. Now that finals are over and I'm home having a relaxing winter break, it's pretty much all I can think about, and I know all my future friends and coworkers who are starting the program soon probably feel the same way. So in the spirit of it all, here are just a few of the thoughts that have been racing through my head nonstop:

1. I can't believe I actually got accepted.

2. Like is this actually real life?

3. OH MY GOD, IM GOING TO DISNEY WORLD.

4. Are my friends going to miss me?

5. Are they going to hate me for going away?

6. What if they all bond without me, and when I come back there's a bunch of new inside jokes that I don't understand?!

7. Am I going to fall behind in school?

8. I'm not going.

9. It's just not a good idea.

10. Oh wait, yes it is.

11. BECAUSE IM GOING TO DISNEY WORLD.

12. What if I don't make a single friend the entire time I'm there?

13. What if I make too MANY friends, and I can't focus on work?

14. What if they schedule me way too many hours and I'm exhausted?

15. Oh my god, I'm gonna die down there...slaving away in the Florida heat.

16. What if they don't give me enough hours and I'm totally broke?

17. Oh my gosh I need to start my bucket list.

18. This bucket list is WAY too long.

19. I should just wing it and go without a bucket list, live in the moment!

20....Imma still write this list though. Just in case.

21. I can't stop thinking of every cute picture I need to take while I'm down there.

22. I hope I make at least one friend who will follow me around with a camera sometimes.

23. Thinking of cameras, I should totally vlog down there.

24. Nah, never mind, I can't vlog. I don't have the personality for it.

25. Actually, you know what, I'm hilarious. I'm gonna vlog.

26. I'm totally not gonna tie myself down to a relationship while I'm down there. I just wanna be free and have fun!

27. At the same time, I'm gonna be pissed if I don't meet my soulmate.

28. Oh my god, I forgot to tell [insert random friend here] that I'm going.

29. I hate when people ask what the program is.

30. IT'S SO HARD TO DESCRIBE.

31. BUT BASICALLY IM GOING TO DISNEY WORLD.

32. I hate my role.

33. I love my role.

34. I'm gonna hate my roommates.

35. Nah, I'm gonna love my roommates.

36. What if my roommates hate ME?

37. IT'S OKAY CAUSE IM GONNA BE IN DISNEY WORLD.

38. How will I adjust to coming back home after?

39. What if I don't want to come back home after?

40. Is it really going to be the amazing adventure everyone says it's going to be?

41. Of course it is.

42. BECAUSE IM GOING TO DISNEY WORLD!

Taylor Swift's Eras Tour is What I Hope Heaven Feels Like

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.
