Why I didn't extend...

how far you can go, just remember

how far you have come. 

Remember everything you have

faced, all the battles you have won, and all

the fears you have overcome."

Why I didn't extend my Disney College Program....

I decided it was best for me if I just went home. I've been struggling with things for the past few months whether it be: Homesickness, roommates problems, or problems at work. I felt that my choices were, 

A,) Extend and pray that my role gets changed, and I can move apartments. 

B.) Extend and end up feeling the same way and stuck at the same location (I do love All Star, but I don't want to extend into it, I would want to do something different) 

C.) Go home and focus my time and attention on another battle that needs to be won. 

I fought with this choice for a long time, I remember telling my mom "Who knows when I will be home, I already know I am going to extend when its offered." I did not even read the extensions are out email for a week after I received it. 

I think then I knew that I had decided in the back of my mind that my program was ending in January. I am fine with that. Don't get me wrong, I would love to stay had my program been better than it was for me. 

A lot of people are excited about extensions, and I've decided that I am just going to go home and take this next semester off to focus on myself. 

I would recommend this program in a heart beat, it has changed me in so many ways, and I've grown because of it. So Yes, I think it's a program worth doing. 

Let's face it, there are many reasons I don't want to extend and I am not going to make this post a list of all the horrible things that have factored into this choice. I viewed this program as a battle, and by completing the program on January 5th I have won the battle. 

But on a side note, if you are interested in the Disney College Program you can contact we with any questions you may have! If you are interested in applying let me know so that you can list me as referral!
