Clare The Square

It's taken a long time for me to accept my nerdiness... Totally worth it in the end.

10 Things You Might Forget (But Shouldn’t)

Your I-9 documentation. Whether it’s your passport, social security card, birth certificate, and your ID, don’t forget them!

Your boarding pass! You have to print out all the paperwork (you can’t just have it on your phone!) with the barcode included after you fill out your housing registration and bring it with you to check-in. 

Renters insurance. Disney recommends that you have insurance (it’s required for the Disneyland program), but it isn’t necessary. Personally I’m not going to have it and I know plenty of others who are in the same boat.

Locks. You’ll have a locker at your apartment and access to one at work so bring two combination locks with you or buy them once you’re down here.

Umbrella! Whether it’s pouring rain or bright and sunny, a small umbrella can come in handy.

Your checkbook. Disney requires you to bring a voided check with you for payroll purposes so don’t leave your checks at home!

Vehicle registration and car insurance. If you’re bringing your car make sure to bring these documents.

Medications. If you’re on any type of medication make sure you get a prescription to bring with you or get a vacation override from your insurance company so you can pick up a few months worth of doses before you leave.

Shoe inserts! There’s a 99% chance you’ll be standing and moving around most of the day and one of the best ways to protect your feet is to invest in some great Dr. Scholls inserts. 

Roommate gifts! This one is totally up to what you and your potential roommates want do, but the gesture is thoughtful and could be a nice way to start out your program!

One of my favorite parts of preparing for the DCP has been making a bucket list for when I get down there. I love to bullet journal, so I bought a brand new notebook for this year and got to work picking out things to do in each of the parks and around the resorts/Orlando. For each park, I made a list of all the shows and rides, plus other experiences I want to make sure to do - such as specific restaurants, tours, etc. - and left some space to add in pictures, Epcot passport stamps, and whatnot.

The gist of it is that I want to meet all the characters, go on every ride, watch every show, and see every animal at Animal Kingdom, plus some more specific experiences only available at Walt Disney World or for members of the College Program.

I’ve seen lots of these lists online, but I wanted to make my own to customize it to my interests. For example, I don’t drink, so drinking around the world at Epcot doesn’t sound very exciting to me. Instead, I’m going to eat around the world at all the snack locations in each country. And I collect Peter Pan books, so one of my bucket list items is to buy a copy of Peter Pan in Orlando and have whatever Peter Pan characters I can meet sign it.

I can’t wait to get to Florida and start crossing things off!

like i have my problems with harry potter and jk rowling but it will never stop meaning something to me that rowling was a depressed 30-year single mother living on welfare when she thought of this story, that she was – in her own words– at rock bottom and she managed to put herself out there, to create this brilliant amazing series that has impacted so many people’s lives. there’s something to be said for hope.

I literally know nothing about this movie. Is it like a modern Who Framed Roger Rabbit?

We’re strangers. We sit next to each in a dark room focusing on a large moving screen in front of us for over an hour. Loud noises make it impossible to hold a conversation. Going to see a movie on a first date seems like a bad idea.
