Hey guys! sooo sorry I've been MIA lately - I've just been so super busy and despite thinking "Oh I need to blog" about a hundred times, I never quite managed to actually write the post! And this one is going to be just a quick update sadly, because I'm in the process of moving out of my apartment but I have plans to do lots of blogging and vlogging in a few weeks once things have settled down.
So the three big things going on with me at the moment in regards to the program are:
1. Visa: I have my American J1 Visa! Yay!!!! It was quite the stressful experience, but I'm relieved it's over and done with now and I'm all good to go work in the USA. It took close to two weeks from receiving the forms in the mail to recieving my actual visa, but that was because I had to travel to Melbourne for my visa appointment. If you live in the same city as he US Consulate it can take less than that. I won't go into any great detail here and now because I plan to write a detailed post in the DICP Guide so keep an eye out for that! I also vlogged some of my trip to Melbourne so I'll post that video as soon as I get a chance to edit it.
2. Roomies: So I've got my Roommates sorted for Disney, which is super exciting. There are 6 of us in total and I'm already having so much fun getting to know them. Some of them are from Melbourne too so I got to catch up with them when I went over to do my visa. Finding great Roomies was something I was really worried about so I feel really calm now that I have that sorted. I'm sure you will see/hear more of them as time goes on :)
3. Packing: No I haven't started packing for Disney 2 months early - I'm moving out of my apartment this week so I'm packing up all my worldly possessions and discovering how much crap I actually own! I'm staying with family for the rest of my time in Australia so that will be interesting, but a good chance to spend time with my loved ones before I head off to the states.
So, that's a really quick update on me for the time being - I promise I will post more once I've got some spare time and I've finished packing and moving!
