Today doesn't even feel like one single day! I feel like it's been two days... I'm exhausted to say the least but more excited than ever. My day began at 5 AM... Yep, 5! I arrived at vista way for check-in at about 7:30 to get in line for my arrival time of 8-9. Luckily I was closer to the front of the line! From there they seperate the students in the program and their families. Families go to a pavilion that has all types of cool information while the CP's go on to the maze of lines. Cool little tidbit: parents find out which complex you'll be staying at before we do so keep texting your parents to find out! The maze consists of first finding out your work location (mine is Hollywood Studios Parking, exactly what I wanted!!), then finding out which complex your in and receiving your key, and then verifying direct deposit. Then it's time to jump on your casting bus! Another interesting thing is that the buses that leave for casting don't really leave at your exact time. Your sheet of paper may say that your bus leaves at 8:30 but you might still be in line... No worries! You will get on a bus! Casting is a complete whirlwind... I couldn't even tell you all the documents I filled out and all the fingerprints I did there. The building is really cool though! I was there for about an hour and a half.
After casting you return to vista way from which you run to your apartment to see what it's like!!! I got very lucky, I got exactly the complex I asked for and it looks great inside. And on top of everything else I have fabulous roommates! And aside from a drug and alcohol test the rest of the day was spent moving in and grocery shopping. Check-In day is definitely madness but totally worth it in the end! I can now rest before training starts :) tomorrow's big task is a housing welcome session at 11! Shoutout to my wonderful family for working so hard to get me here and helping me move in today and shoutout to grandma for supporting me and giving me supplies! I'm fully prepared because of you! Love you all!
I'm also in the process of filling in my memory board! :)
