Scars & the Disney Look

I have a bunch of old SH scars on my lower arms and legs. They are fully healed and not visible from a distance but definitely are up close, and when I've worked with children in the past they would sometimes ask me about them.

Could this be a problem? I know people with large tattoos sometimes have to wear sleeves, would that be required of me? I am fine either way, mostly just curious what to expect.

Enrollment

Hi all,

Long story short I graduated with my Bachelors in May but I’m taking prerequisites for my Masters in a completely different field. I was accepted into the Spring Program just last week. I just need to take one more class which can be completed completely online which I intend on doing. Obviously I cannot take an in person class, but am I allowed to take one online class during my program? I think it would be allowed, but I was not sure. Thank you!

common asked question i have ‘is it worth it?’

I got accepted but i currently live in NYC with my mom, the living situation isn’t ideal but it’s my home. While I have family in florida I can stay with while doing the dcp which eliminates the roommate stress… there comes new stress with staying with my family in florida.

sooo ive been debating on accepting the offer for a few reasons:

  1. i don’t know what i want to do with my life and college (ive been in college for 5 years now and still don’t know plus mental health issues have stunted that part of my life) so im worried this might push me back even more (itll take me 2 more years extra to graduate with just an associates if i accept the offer)

  2. a silly reason but im also visually alternative looking.. i know i need to give it up because dyed hair, a bunch of facial piercings and stretched septum’s is not the disney look. (i would repierce once its over)

  3. is it even worth it? will the experience outweigh the idea of having to give up my life in nyc for a few months? like it wont impact my resume in some amazing way if i dont have a career path? will i make friends and new experiences? or is this just going to be a headache.

i honestly just signed up because my family kept pressuring me into doing it and i had zero faith in getting accepted because im not the most outgoing or bubblyish person but they accept everyone it seems. i dont know if this is something that’ll help me grow or if the program will do the opposite. which is the last thing i need from this experience.

DCP water bottle rules?

I was told that our water bottles that we can take to work during the dcp has to be all black but i was going to buy one of these Darth Vader Owalas

Does anyone know if either of these still work or if they’re going to care about the small bits of color on the lid?

Recently got accepted and I have no idea what to do

First off, I am going to apologize for the long post. I feel like to get proper advice I have to spill everything. So this also might be a little jumbled. I have 5 more days to give a yes or no. I hate that they only give a week to decide.

I moved from my home town a year ago and I love where I live now. If I go to the DCP, I will be moving back to my home town once I finish the program. Every time I am in my hometown I feel trapped. But it is the only place that offers the program I want to do (like college career program).

Now that that's out of the way, let's get to why this is hard. One of my friends has some pets that I have grown close with. The thought of saying goodbye to them and saying goodbye to my friends makes me want to vomit. I have cried so many times at the thought. I also have so many photography opportunities coming up and I enjoy my current job (the job and the photography go hand in hand). I also have many people asking me to do their graduation photos. And if I go, I'll leave in march which is before graduation.

But I also don't have many friends other than the ones who have the pets. I live in a college town and go to some events on campus and me and this boy go to the same actives. We talked for a little bit, but decided we were better off as friends. But now he has randomly unadded me, unfollowed me and I have no idea why. We saw each other on Tuesday and it was all normal. Planned to go fishing Monday, chatted like normal yesterday and then today I woke up and saw he unadded me and such. I truly have no idea since everything was fine yesterday.

Pros if I leave: meet new people, new opportunities, get to work at disney, get to leave all this boy trouble behind (but with this generation, the boy trouble will be over in like two weeks because everyone will move on).

Cons if I leave: Saying goodbye to the pets, friends, possibly losing photography opportunities, moving 11+ hours from home, and unable to see my therapist (I've gone to her for 4+ years), leave my job, leave the events on campus, and we don't know what position we will have till four weeks before we leave.

Pros if I stay: I get to see the pets, keep my current job and the photography stuff, see my friends, stay at my current place that I enjoy, keep going to on campus events.

Cons if I stay: boy problems, maybe feeling stuck.

I feel like if I knew what position I would be in, I wouldn't feel so scared.

Let me know if you have any questions and all advice is welcome!
