Housing Meeting/Traditions

So you just moved in to your apartment. You met all your roommates in person, and maybe you all did a roommate gift exchange. Maybe you all have plans to do the Kitchen Sink at Beaches and Cream or some other roommate bonding. Also depending on when you have casting, you finished casting. What happens next?

Depending on your itinerary, you may have a day or two free. The next big thing that happens is the housing meeting.

Housing meeting?

Yes, housing meeting. In the housing meeting, you go over the rules and guidelines about housing. They go over what you can and cannot do, what can/cannot have in your apartment, and safety things. It takes about one hour, one and a half hour tops. If you have any questions about not sure what can go up on the walls or things like that, this is the time to ask them. It is boring, don’t get me wrong. But they do try to make it fun.

Next major thing to happen next is Traditions!

Sarah, you kept hinting about Traditions is your other posts. What is Traditions? What goes on during Traditions?

Traditions is your first major work orientation. You learn about the Walt Disney Company, Walt himself, things like that. There are a lot of surprises and other things I can’t talk about because I don’t want to ruin the magic of it. You’ll laugh. You’ll cry. It will move you.

I wish I can tell you what goes on but alas, you’ll just have to wait. But I can tell you this next part.

You do get to walk through Magic Kingdom. You’ll get to walk through Main Street USA through the eyes of a cast member. You’ll get to learn about things about the parks. But that’s all I can say about that. You’ll just have to wait until the real thing to find out what you do.

Before you go to Traditions, make sure you get enough rest! Traditions takes up a good part of your day. Some of you might gave the morning session, meaning you might have to get up at 6 or 7 am in order to get ready. There is a bus that takes you to Traditions. Be sure to be there on time. This bus will take you directly there, so if you miss it, you have to find your own way there.

Also, make sure you’re dressed in Disney Look!

Disney Look?? This again?

Yes, this again. Your leaders will be checking to make sure you are dressing in Disney look. They will look you up and down. They will ask you if you have tattoos and how you covered them up. If you don’t, the leaders will call you out on it! If you are not dressed in Disney Look, they will turn you away and make you go changed.

I made a post about the Disney Look (named “The Disney Look”) you should check it out in the little sidebar. Read it to save a life.

Sorry for a shorter post. There’s not a whole lot I can say without giving things away (that I can say online). But I hope answers the general on goings of the Housing Meeting and Traditions.
