Well you asked for a comment to help out and I can give you my two cents if you want. As far as Sanderson goes, start with Mistborn. Tress is wonderful (then again I think it’s all wonderful since The Cosmere is my favorite Series overall) but definitely start with Mistborn’s first book titled The Final Empire. After the first 3 Mistborn books (Brandon and fans refer to each Mistborn sub-series as Eras) you can find several reading orders online put forth by people who tailored it to their reading experiences. I personally prefer the Optimized Order from the Raven’s Rants channel (adding in The Lost Metal, the 3 Cosmere Secret Projects, and Wind and Truth after Rhythm of War (which was the most recent book at the time of the video’s release)). How to read Cassandra Clare? Well the Shadowhunter Chronicles is similar to Robin Hobb’s Realm of the Elderlings in that it has several Sub-Series within its larger Universe. Most of the Sub-Series are Trilogies with one (Mortal Instruments) being 6 books set up in 2 separate Trilogies. Chronologically In-World the Series go: The Infernal Devices The Last Hours The Mortal Instruments The Dark Artifices The Wicked Powers (yet to be released but will happen soon). There’s also a 3 book Anthology Series that follows one of the Side Character from The Mortal Instruments where he is the Main Character called The Eldest Curses. The first book takes place between the 2 Mortal Instruments Trilogies, the second between the Mortal Instruments and the Dark Artifices, and the third one will take place in between the Dark Artifices and the Wicked Powers once it’s released. Honestly you can read this Series however you want to read this Series lol. I enjoyed it the way I have read it which is MI 1, ID, MI 2, DA, LH but if you want to read Publication Order or Chronological Order instead have fun. It’s a Series worth reading. Not the best but certainly better than a lot of stuff that gets released. Now for my last bit of word vomit here lol here’s my 3 recommendations for you to add to your list of Series to Read in 2025: The Dresden Files- my second favorite Series after the Cosmere. The first 2 books are kind of rough (even the Author acknowledges this lol) but they are pretty short to start with and get MUCH better from book 3 on. Book 12 in this Series, titled Changes, is my Favorite Book of All-Time and that’s saying something. Not just that but Harry Dresden is my favorite Protagonist of All-Time. There’s no one else I’d rather have at my back on my worst day, in my worst hour than Harry Blackstone Copperfield Dresden. James Marsters (Spike from Buffy the Vampire Slayer) does the Audiobooks for them and just IS Harry. Book 18 of this Series, titled Twelve Months, is releasing in 2025. The Mercy Thompson and Alpha and Omega Series by Patricia Briggs. Set in the same World they are 2 pretty great Urban Fantasy Series. Mercy Thompson is set mostly in Eastern Washington (the State) lol and Alpha and Omega is kind of all over the Map but they are both set in what I like to call a Mash-Up Fantasy World because it has everything. Fae? They got it. Werewolves and Skinwalkers? Yup. Vampires? Sure do. Witches? You betcha. With the Series you’ve listed here this should be right up your alley. Last but not least the Lorien Legacies. A YA Sci-Fi and Superpower story (from what you’ve put here this is an out of your comfort zone pick) about a group of Aliens hiding on Earth from another, hostile, group of Aliens who end up coming together to save Earth over the course of the seven books in this Series. Oh yea there’s a sequel Series here… I DNF’d it it was pretty bad lol. The Original Series though is fantastic. Anyway that’s my two cents so I hope you have fun reading and have a good 2025!
WOW! This is absolutely incredible. Thank you SO much for this information and the lovely recommendations!! I saved this and will definitely be coming back to it when I start these series. The Mercy Thompson and Alpha and Omega Series sounds right up my alley, and The Dresden Files and Lorien Legacies sound like incredible adventures! Thank you again for taking the time to write all of this out 💓💓
@ no problem lol. No one’s ever been able to accuse me of not being thorough enough when it comes to things I enjoy lol. Happy Reading!

Hello! I know it’s been a little while since this was posted (and from a peek at your channel it looks like you graduated from your DCP- congrats!🥲🎉), but I just wanted to say that your vlogs have been so delightful. Out of hundreds of DCP videos, yours stand out as so lovely, unhurried, and honest. Thank you for sharing your program experiences! Looking forward to applying soon~ 🐭✨
Wow, thank you so much! This is the sweetest comment 🥹🫶🏼✨ best of luck!! 💕💕
I’ve got accepted 💕 Graduate May 11th for Bachelors and still have to go to college to finish my Masters degree. I had to organize my schedule with my advisor to do all online classes while doing DCP but they said dedicated time off isn’t guaranteed….. how do I request time off?
Hmmm so unless you’re in the program where you are scheduled specific days/times for school, there isn’t a way to guarantee time off for classes. You can put in requests off once you start at your location, but most times CPs don’t get their requests. Just depends on your location and leaders!
s disney flexible for school schedules? I am doing dcp pretty soon! and I want to do my college classes over zoom, can disney not schedule me on that specific day I have school? like that whole day? I applied as part-time student.
Hi! I believe they have a program where you are guaranteed specific days or times off based on your classes, but I didn’t participate in it. I would definitely reach out to your rep! They can help set this up for you so you can schedule your classes accordingly 😊
Happy you posted!
I’m so happy you watched! 💓
So fun! Loved Fourth Wing and Iron Flame <3
We had so much fun! Thanks for watching!💓💓💓
So do u take classes from ur actual college? Or does the Disney program have classes like math, science, already there that u can take?
I did online classes from my college! They had taken the Disney ones away after COVID, I’m not sure if they have brought them back!
ROLL TIDE!
Heyy, are there any nail or beauty salons close to flamingo?
Honestly I went to one about 10 minutes away, I’m sure there is one closer now though!
Thank you for showing the dishes and pots/pans that come with the unit.
No problem! I wondered what came with it when I was packing too.
BTW, I know a guy who installed the original tree at Animal Kingdom. It was a real unique tree that looked very similar to the present fake one but when they were craning it in, it broke apart so they went with a fake one modeled almost identically to the broken real one. It would be almost impossible to find a real tree like that again.
Thanks! Interesting to see the last day. I wonder about the post Disney “depression” that guests and DCPers talk about.
I personally did not experience it - I was so excited to get back to school and my friends here! I miss Disney, but cannot really speak to “post-Disney depression” like some can☺️
I am so scared for that. I will be arriving in August and leaving in January. I'll be coming back to the start of the worse of winter and have to experience it for at least another three months, and then also have nothing to do because I live in a small town, and then go back to school. It's like a completely opposite lifestyle that I am scared I'm gonna feel that.
@@gabriellechouinard3738 I think it has to do with dopamine (stimulation) in the brain, and happens in many situations, both work and vacationers. As long as you know it is normal and goes away, maybe you can view it as a harmless side effect. I suspect anybody who experiences sustained excitement can have it (I did so in a similar manner after working on an Alaskan fishing boat) so Disney guests on TH-cam who are only there for a week or two also say they experience it. Think about the amount of information and stimulation your body experiences then switches to a relative calm and lack of that stimulation. I know all of the TH-cam CRPers who say they experienced it, which is almost all the YT CRPers, later look back on their Disney experience as something they wouldn’t trade so apparently the “post Disney depression” doesn’t affect long term memories of the experience.
@@bobdobb9017 thank you! Ya, I also experience it everytime I go on vacation in the winter. I always think about the next exciting things coming my way.
i just got my location for my program and i’m gonna be in pandora merchandise so this video made me so so excited!!! :)
Yay!! I hope you love it - I enjoyed the location so much 🥰
Is this stuff with the room or is it personal?
All decor is my own but furniture came with the room!
Rent?
It has changed since I lived there - I would look on the website or ask in a Facebook group!
This was a nice way to finish your dcp. Hope you are doing well. Can't wait to see what you are doing currently.
Thank you! Hoping to update soon!!
I'm so sad that your CP vlogs are over! I really enjoyed following along - thanks for sharing! :)
Thank you! Glad you like them!
24:48 what kind of dog is she?😍
She is a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel!! 🐶🫶🏼
This made me so sad I move in aug. And I love your DCP videos
Thank you so much! I’m going to miss editing them but can’t wait to watch them all and relive my memories 🥲 enjoy your time there!!
@@simplysarahkate thank you for the reply I would love a video talking about the things you wish you knew/ or bought before the dcp. Or even the process of getting to pick up so many different shifts. I have a good feeling I’m going to get retail and if so I would love to shift hop when possible.
I move in august also!!!! August Allies!!!!
You have so many costumes. Do they charge you if you don’t return them? Also, if you loose your name tags. Do they charge you for a replacement?
Yes and yes! When you leave the company you need to make sure your costume check out is cleared so you don’t get charged for something you accidentally kept! You can check with costuming on that. And I think it’s $5 for a new name tag - I got a new one bc I wanted my university written differently. You can get extras or order new ones whenever at costuming!
Im going to miss these Disney videos !!🥺 would you consider moving back to work at Disney part time or full time?
Me too! I won’t go back for at least a year - I accepted a post-grad job in Nashville, TN! But I would consider going back in a leadership or corporate position 🫶🏼🫶🏼
Are you still going to do vlogs ?
I don’t live near Disney anymore, but I thought about making some videos about books/reading since that’s a big passion of mine as well🥰
omg this was the most magical day😭😭
It really was so fun 😭🫶🏼
Hey. I Subscribe Your TH-cam Channel. 🤗🤗🤗🤗
I love your vlogs! Do you think you'll do another program?
I’m not currently planning on it! I actually accepted a job in Nashville post-grad, but I would be willing to work for Disney again! Just not on a DCP 🥰🥰
Wow your mom is absolutely beautiful ❤like mother like daughter.im binging your videos they are sooo good
aww your roomates are the best❤
How good are they with days off? I only have two chances to make it in, so I applied for fall 2023 and I have my phone interview for Tuesday. The only problem I have for fall is my sister's wedding, where I am the maid of honor. I am definitely not missing it, and was wondering how good they would be with taking five days off. She lives in Minneapolis, so I would need two days already just for travelling back and forth.
So jealous that y'all can have nail polish with real colors now! It was always so hard to find neutrals that actually looked decent.
I know! I was so grateful when I learned that I could have mine done! They do have to be one solid color and the same color on all nails, but I usually don’t get designs anyways haha.
