OK- had to share with you all....

Chase called last night from school to let me know that after waiting on pins and needles for months he got an intern position at Disney World (in Florida). He will have to take a semester off from UNT to go. He will be gone for 4 months and will work there part time and take college classes at Disney. He's not sure what they offer, marketing is a for sure, but otherwise he's not 100%. He is working towards a film major with a marketing minor at UNT so this fits right into his degree plan. He will work part time and make a little bit of money. They furnish the dorm and the food. He also gets free tickets for family members (go mamma!!- lol) He won't be able to come home during the four months so his mom will just have to go visit him. (it will be a "sigh" sacrifice!) Nonetheless what an amazing opportunity!!!

Way to go Chase!  Look at the positives about going to Florida to see him other than the obvious.  He can't bring his laundry home!

Never, and I mean NEVER, trust a fart!!

 Congrats to Chase !!!!  Tracey that sounds like a opportunity of a lifetime.   I know he will not only get much needed education from this experience but have lots of fun in the process.     Sigh....know it will be a BIG SACRIFICE going to Disney World to see him though.     We are ALL proud of him !!!

Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

  • Pease check out Dr. Connie Stapleton's Website. A lot of good information on there for all WLS patients regardless of the surgery you chose.  Good luck to all and I'm here for you if you want to send me an email.  I'll answer it as soon as possible.

He has like 77 hours from the jr college he went to. I was saying that he would be the only person ever to get a master's degree from a two year university. He finally transferred to UNT in the fall. So he's a jr, but about to be a sr. I'm not sure the amount of hours he's completed at UNT, but he's in line for being a senior. He was going to talk with the counselor today about making sure the Disney U hours are transferrable to UNT. From my understanding they are. With those hours and the ones he completes in the spring 2013 semester back at UNT, he'll be done with his BA degree.  

He wants to get a master's though, so the college days aren't soon to be over any time quickly.

Congrats to him Tracey. I know a girl that was Belle at WDW in that program and she loved it. It's been several years.
