Vlogging on the Disney College Program
Missy Hargrove

The Disney College Program is one of the most exciting things to happen in my life. And the memories I make on the program are ones I hold dear to my heart. On this program, you learn a lot about the company and as well as yourself, and sometimes it changes you (for the better). Before I arrived for my first program, I started watching vlogs from current CPs (term for college program participants.) I mostly watched Sarah Bellin’s vlogs, (if you haven’t, check out her vlogs! ) I love her vlogs. And it was then of course I decided that I was going to vlog my program. What started out as just doing what your typical CP does turned into confidence, fun, inspiring, and capturing memories of a lifetime so I can go back and watch whenever I need to.


My first program, I started to vlog but didn’t vlog that well. I only had maybe and vlogs. I gave up in the program and now I just re-watch my three vlogs and my former roommate Alecia’s vlogs, and some of my former roommate Katherine’s vlogs. (AleciaTakesDisney and KatherineDoesDCP). I wish I had vlogged more, but I don’t dwell on that.

Now on my second program, I have been more consistent on my vlogs and better at it but I’m still slacking. It is now April, and my last vlog posted was in February. OOPS. Here’s the thing, on the DCP it is really hard to keep up with vlogging and editing as well. I have a lot of vlogs that just need to be edited and posted. But I have been working so much that I am tired and don’t want to do it. Or caught up in the moment of the program where I blow it off and run to a park or go to Taco Bell at 1 am before work the next morning. Life happens. I forget. This is what I am working on. But I will get to my vlogs when I can, I’m in no rush.

Here’s my advice to any vloggers or future vloggers for the Disney College Program, don’t worry if you get behind. Try to vlog everything. But if you miss something, don’t dwell on it! Try to vlog as much as you can, but do not live through your vlog. Sometimes you have to put the camera down and enjoy the program. I love being able to go back and watch my vlogs and remember but I also like going to the parks and just enjoying it. Vlogging is supposed to be fun, but can become stressful if you begin to live through the vlog and put pressure on yourself with posting your vlogs. I will continue to vlog, and I highly recommend it to DCP participants. You’ll love going back and watching them when your program is over. You will also begin to see how much you have changed. My first vlog, I didn’t know what to say. I was always picky on what I said. How I said it. What I did. Now I sound more confident, I go with the flow. And I let loose and have fun. Vlogging has helped my self-esteem and honestly my speech in general.


Vlog your program and have fun. Don’t stress if you miss something. If you forget to vlog, or if you feel behind on your vlogs. Relax, get to the vlogging when you feel like it. You can take a day off or two of vlogging. Post the next vlog when you can, but don’t stress yourself out. Have fun. Make memories. Enjoy your Disney College Program.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
