Hey Everyone

[Meg4theMouse]

Hey, I'm Meg and I am 18 years old. I love Disney and have been to WDW four times in my life. I am soon to be a High School Graduate and well it has been kinda messed upped because of this Covid-19 virus, I guess I am trying to make the most of it. It has been hard realizing all the hard work I am my classmates have put in and now we have lost our class trip, Senior Prom, Graduation(or what it really was suppose to be), and most likely the chance of any Senior week. Also the fact of losing my chance for Spring Cheer(my last season) as well as my classmates and their sports that they play. It is also not being around my friends everyday, so here I am hoping that Disney will cheer me up. I hope to not only meet people here who also love Disney like I do, but also learn things about Disney as well.

Hi Meg welcome to the boards! I can definitely feel your pain about School, I'm in the same boat regarding College. This thread is a great place and I hope we can help boost spirits up and make you feel happy here.

Thanks so much. Disney certainly can boost spirits so I really think I am in the right place.

There can be some really cool stuff to learn on here. I highly recommend you follow marni1971. He is an insider and will talk about upcoming projects and other very interesting stuff regarding the parks. It's fun to interact with a great community here and to help escape the madness of the real world sometimes besides doing school work and exercise. That's all you can do during the shutdowns.

Thanks for the info. Yeah, all I have been doing is school work as that is coming to an end and watching movies and binge watching shows. I miss hanging out with my friends. I can't believe I am actually saying this. but I actually miss going to school. Right now the teachers and administration are working on a virtual type of graduation. It will be very different, but at least it will be something.

Yeah I feel the same way. It really stinks not being able to see your friends. I agree too I miss School as well. Which is a funny thing to say . That's really good you teachers and administration are working on that. Were you able to have a prom? It's crazy how all of this online stuff will be the new normal for a while.

Prom ha been cancelled. For me I had 3 online classes(English, Pre- Calculus, and Chemistry). My other 3 classes were all choir classes which unfortunately are over. I get a Pass/Fail grade with all the work I turn in now so that part is a lot easier.

Dan that really stinks. I'm sorry it was canceled. That's good you only have 3. I'm stuck with 6 . That's good it's pass/fail, it seems like most Schools are doing that. My School isn't for some odd reason. But good thing is only a few weeks left till School is over. Then it's going to be interesting finding a place to work at.

Yeah it really does suck. Other than Graduation itself my Senior Prom is what I was looking forward to the most of all this school year. Yeah I only have a few more weeks and pretty much I am just preparing for whatever graduation will be. As for a job this Summer before I head off to college in the Fall(or at least I hope so) since I was 14 I volunteered at my Dad's Doctors office doing filing and stuff like that. He would pay me weekly on the side so I would have some fun money for the Summer. This year since his office staff is primarily working from home I have no idea what I am going to do. I might just chill this last Summer and hopefully be able to go to beach at some point.

Yeah I feel awful that you cant go to Senior prom. In all honesty after Prom is more fun, Senior Prom is only fun if you have a date to go with. That's really good you only have a few weeks left. That's really cool you help your Dad out. I agree I cannot wait to go to the beach. Gotta keep getting back into beach body shape. It's hard finding a job this year because I've been a Summer Camp counselor and there may not be any camps this summer. I might do volunteer work at the Hospital or try to get a job at my local YMCA.

It is really hard. I have been dating the same guy since my Sophomore year so we had this whole thing planned out for after the Prom and everything. We still probably will do something hopefully before we both head off to college if this virus allows us. I live just over 30 minutes from the beach so it drives me crazy that when the weather gets warmer I might not be able to go.

Yeah it can be hard, especially when you planned stuff. Is he going to the same college or a different college? My ex and I went to different schools and it got hard because we barely saw each other. But my best friend and his girlfriend go to different schools and were able to make it work. It's crazy because nobody knows how this will go and if Colleges will allow everyone to go back on campus or keep doing online classes. Yeah it's got be crazy being so close and not being able to go . It's been cold and rainy where I live and the beach is about 45 minutes away and I cannot wait to go back. It all depends on how the lock-downs go. NY is being hit the hardest and we may not be lifted till May 15 or later.
EDIT: Sorry if I was asking too personal of a question. I tend to talk a lot

No, he is not going to the same college as I, in fact he will be quite a distance away studying Business Administration and playing football in the North West while I will be on pretty much the opposite side of the country in the South Eastern part of the United States studying Nursing. I fully understand as I am going crazy just since this whole pandemic thing has started and I have not been able to see him other than talk to him. I am going stir crazy. The weather here has been rainy the past few days and in the upper 50's and low 60's. I am looking forward to the warmer weather and the sunshine to return.

Dang that's going to be tough. That's awesome you are studying Nursing. My Cousin and Grandparents are Nurses. My Grandpa was a Doctor during Vietnam. What type of Nursing are you thinking of doing? Yeah I agree it feels like somedays you are trapped at home. Yeah I'm not a fan of cold weather, I love the warm weather.
