Disney College Program "Grocery Price is right"

I won I won I won I wonnnnnnnnnnn AGAIN!!!

This time it's not Grocery Bingo. Actually it's has nothing to do with getting the "grocery" price right so DO not visit the Grocery Store to cheat on prices like yours truly..................You will win the same things as Grocery bingo so do not fear if you're not good at this game, there's always luck with grocery bingo next time.

The point of this game is to guessing the price of the whole trip or grocery, so they will start with a few pictures of trips, event,s disney related themes, and sometimes grocery so be careful with this.. it's quite tricky. You will receive a raffle ticket upon entering the room for your seats, If you're very unlucky like me, myself and I your number will be called at the very end when half of the room is gone. BUT HEY at least I got free grocery, patience is the KEY!!

You'll be sitting for a good few hours so hang tight. Here's how you play.. when a raffle number is drawn, you will be going up to the front of the room, where you will compete with 3 other people whose raffle number was also called. This is where it becomes intense, once the picture on the screen is shown you must guess the price of the total. But make sure, you do not go over the price range anything under or close will continue forth to the showdown between you and another person competing against grocery and the same thing happens again, you will be guessing the price of the pictures shown on the screen. Ranging from grocery shopping items, hotel stays, park prices, cruises, etc. KNOW YOUR DISNEY STUFF i'd say. Sometimes I cant figure out how they get the final price but yea.. I hope you're lucky at guessing like me and the audience can help you along with friends.

Here's an example of what they might ask:

You are 3 friends who booked for vip seating for the epcot fireworks, how much is the total?(stuff like that)

I think that's about it.. Enjoy and hope you can win tooo.

Disney College Program Building Inspection.

COOKIES!!!
Your inspection paper results...

It's TRUE!!! You cant just keep your room as dirty and as messy as you want. No.. not Really, You can but Just keep your eyes OPENED for your inspection days that will be posted near the entrance by the security or near bus stops.

Throughout your Disney College Program, your building will be inspected a few times. It seems I get an inspection every 37 days, my first one being February 22 and the upcoming one on April 1st. Since my inspection date is coming soon I thought I would share some detail with you on how to pass. If you do not pass Inspection.. you will be charged extra on your next paycheck, I believe 25 dollars extra taken out of your paycheck so that they can hire people to CLEAN YOUR APARTMENT FOR YOU.

sooooooo,.. I did not get "White glove" and the box of chocolate that comes with it, white glove is only given to rooms that are crystal clean! however I was reward with cookies, not just one but 2 bags of cookies that I was quite pleased with. My errors? well...I forgot to clean the inside of my microwave. I will surely am for it this time. It's much easier to keep a tidy room with just 2 people, imagine having to force all your roommates to clean up for inspection.. there will be alot of drama!!

Let's all try to get the white glove.. or passing with cookies is Okay tooo.

Here's how I do it... before every inspection date, I would arrange a day for me and my roommate to get together to visit the clubhouse, where we can borrow vacuum, mop, broom and other cleaning equipment that you might need. After tidying up the room, we would just vacuum and wash down, usually the day before inspection, HOWEVER, keep in mind that the clubhouse for chatham, patterson and the commons usually close at 5:00pm so if you're working that day and you dont get off till late, I suggest you do your cleaning a day where you can actually borrow the equipment ( I hate how early the clubhouse closes!) Somedays they will be opened later than usual, so just find out the time and set up your schedule to prepare for cleaning.

Make sure to clean your kitchen: the sink, the stove, fridge, microwave, and keep everything looking neat.. i mean EVEN Your fridge, dont think you can get away with just stuffing everything into your cabinets lol

Make sure to make your bed, just fold it nicely, keep it looking neat and clean.

Make sure you clean your bathroom, the floors should be washed, no hair, bathtubs cleaned and toliets... must be in the same condition as when you first arrived.

and lastly, do not forget to vacuum and dust.

After inspection takes place, they will leave you a piece of paper, saying what they have checked and what was wrong.

GOOD LUCK with white glove!

and Have a magical day.

My new View on Vista Way

Duffy and I ( randomness)

Sooooooooo.. it's been a while, Been busy with ALOT OF Class assignments, group work.. online assignments for my advisor back at college and working OF course. I finally found some time to put this wonderful writing together about how things can Change. Well.. Remember my post regarding Vista vs Chatham vs Patterson!

I noticed that I could not just make judgement without looking deeper into it. I absolutely Love the activeness of Vista Way. It's really not like what people say it is, It's not dangerous or wild, well it may be wild but in a good way and I haven't seen nothing but friendly people around there. I must say.. one thing though... WHY IS VISTA WAY THE ONLY HOUSING COMPLEX WITH A HOT TUBS AND A computer LAB with movies to rent/watch and opened till midnight?!?!?! I am soo in love with the hot tub.. People use to say many negatives to me about going to the Hot tub at Vista Way such as getting pregnant, people doing some inappropriate things in there but it's really NOT true, there is nothing going on there but all friendly people trying to get to know more people. Sometimes you get crazy people there but I mean crazy as in crazy happy people. There are two hot tubs located on Vista way. one at the front pool by the bus stop, that one is questionable so if you want to be safe, go to the one in the back. The hot tub closes by midnight, if you are not out by then, the security will kick you back to your apartments. There is a pool and a gym right next to it, NOTHING IS going to happen to you so just sit back relax and enjoy the relaxing bubbles.. HOT TUBS ARE SOO meant for a busy days after work.

Another thing I really love about Vista Way is the Midnight computer labs with fast internet and a large screen TV for DVDs. This is also the only place YOU CAN BORROW movies and books, 2 can be taken out at once with your Disney ID. The clubhouse/front desk for chatham, patterson, commons all close at 5:00 so by the time I get off work, I cant borrow anything like vaccum or sports stuff or even use the computer lab to print hw. I hate how Vista and Chatham are soo far apart, getting there can be a pain, it's annoying if I just want to go over there to borrow a dvd or return dvds, hottub and internet that I actually game with.,, and then having to travel all the way back to Chatham.. If Only i lived at Vista, I mean ALL THE buses take their breaks there so if your working bus takes you home around their breaks hours, like mine, you'll have to wait till they are finished their break to go back to Chatham which is like another 10- 15 longer.. You can take another bus but its common for all the buses to be taking the same breaks at the same time. BUT, If i lived at Vista I would be home earlier like all those people who get off at VISTA, damnit!! Vista is like the bus base and the main base for everything. As much as I am loving stuff about Vista, I alway hear people at vista complaining about their apartments how stuff is so worn out and breaking. I would not like that for living.

Oh yes and I love ALL the active, friendly, nice people I've met at Vista.

Chatham oh Chatham, when will you become the complex that I had hoped for?

ahaha

HAVE A MAGICAL DAY GUYS !

Disney College Program Grocery Bingo!!!

BINGO board.. I am alway soo close to winning!!
FREE LAPTOP BAG if you're good at catching them

My goodies


So as a CP, you know that we have different events almost every week, ranging from pool parties (FREE FOOD) to cool beans cafe ( FREE COFFEE) to... other events but those are the ones i enjoy the most cuz you know... I am a food lover and which College student doesn't like FREE FOOD!

You also do not want to miss out these events because, not only do you get stuff out of them but the assessment fee that you pay before you even start the program ( 105 dollars) is paying for all those events, so if you dont go, you're money is going to waste. SO GO!!!

Now, let's get to the point, GROCERY BINGO has got to be the funniest event!! I love itttttttttttt, not only because you can get a chance to WIN 3 bags of goodies but it's fun and the people who host those events are good entertainers. I never get bored there... well maybe sometimes I get mad when I am sooo close to winning and they make us "clear our boards"

So here's how it works for those of you interested.

First rule!! Makes sure you arrive early, the first grocery bingo hosted at Vista was super packed, if they dont have room for you then sorry you will be able to participate, so try to arrive there earlyy, so you can stay on line with the rest of the free food craving people. I was there 3o minutes and the line was already warpped around the building, however, they try to stuff as many people in as possible.

Next, you will receive your bingo board upon entering, take a seat and get ready to SCREAM BINGO if you win!!

Dont worry if you haven't ever played bingo before, they will explain as well as show pictures to you. It's fun and easy!

You'll be able to play different types of bingo from: regular bingo, stinko bingo(the person who won this last time also got a free ipod shuffle), t bingo, + bingo, box bingo, etc ( i really have no idea what they are called so yea.. you get the point)

so yea.. the more people there playing with you, the less chance you get to win. Like the grocery bingo they had at the common, not many showed up, there were still seats available and guess who came home with bags of free stuff!!! =============>ME<==============lol

Here's another thing when there are too many bingo winners, they will make you have a dance off but they are always fun to watch but NOT to do.....!! lol

That's all i can think of now.. been so busy and tired HAVE A MAGICAL DAY!!
