DCP – Day 24 – September 6, 2012

DCP applications for the spring semester became available today which made me thing about when I put in my application.  I did it spur of the moment.  All I knew was that I needed a break from school.  And I had nothing to lose by applying so I figured, what the heck?  And then I got in.  And it’s been a great journey ever since then.

But I can’t get Nashville off my mind.  That’s where I want to work.  That’s where my heart lies.  In the streets of downtown and in the old Ryman Auditorium.  Even since I went to the CMA Awards last year, it’s like I’ve been bitten by the Nashville bug.  Country music has always been an integral part of my life and I know that I want to work in that area one day.  Whether it’s in journalism or in tour managing.  I don’t care.  I just feel like that’s what I ultimately want and need to do.

But as for right now, I’m called to be here, in this town at this place, for a reason.  I don’t really know what the reason is yet but it seems every day I’m finding a new reason why I’m here.  The people I’ve met and the friendships I’ve made will be ones that will last forever.  And I’ve learned a lot about myself as well.  Like that I shouldn’t buy bread because I don’t eat it and let it go bad but I should buy a gallon of chocolate milk because it goes too fast. 

And that I need a new umbrella because neither of mine can stand afternoon Florida storms.  Like the one today that started right when I parked my car.

Tonight I worked at Toy Story again with an awesome fellow CP named Taylor.  This is my second time working with her and I feel like I’ve known her forever.  She is awesome.  What is not awesome is my bow tie I have to wear now since it’s after Labor Day.  But hey.  I'm working in Disney World.
