Day 8: Saddest moment.

Mary Poppins "Toppins a Bag" is such a sad moment for me. Every time I see it it just makes me want to cry. She looks so lonely, just sitting there, with no one to talk to except for the birds. Sometimes it remindes me of myself, and I wish that it didnt make me feel so sad. But, it does and it deserves a place on my list.

Days 5, 6, and 7

It's been pretty busy these last few days. But I didnt forget about all of you! lol So now I present day 5 of the 30 day challenge: Favorite kiss.

So this took some thought. I wanted to think of a moment that I really remembered, that really stood out to me.

lol I enjoy it because there is absolutely nothing really romantic about it to me.

It was a manipulative move. And it just really was fantastic :)

So I have been sick all weekend so I will catch up, So number 6 is the prettiest princess. And the Winner is....

Princess Aurora! I can't really explain it. I mean, what is considered pretty? Is it her hair, eyes, smile? Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. But in my opinion, she has the nicest hair, prettiest eyes, and softest smile.

And now number 7: Favorite Castle...And it is Cinderella's castle! I love this castle, this is the first thing I think of when someone says Disney World. It has become the symbol of fantasy and dreams. And that is what Walt wanted. He created this place for dreams to come true and spend time with your family doing something that you couldn't do everyday. And I think that this is wonderful and this castle really represents that.

Day 4!

Disney 30 Day challenge: Day 4, favorite Disney Song

lol A toughie. I'm actually not really in to all of the Disney music...um, but there are a few that I do like.

But my favorite Disney song is from Mary Poppins.

Chim-Chimeree.

I love the song because it is so catchy! I like to hum it when I think no one can hear me. It's just a fantastic song. And I love the movie. I donno, the movie is just classic Disney. I like that. It's just a simply wonderful movie that only Disney can pull off.

Ok, so yeah kinda lame, but like I said, I'm not much of a song person. And now I must go and think of an answer for the next challenge: Favorite Kiss...

Numbah 3!

Day 3 of the Disney Challenge! Favorite Prince!
Ok, this is kinda tough....I was really torn between a couple of them...but once I sat down and really thought about it, one really stood out to me.

Prince Phillip from Sleeping Beauty. I like him because he was willing to defy his father to be with Briar Rose. He had no idea that she was a princess, and when he found out, it didn't change anything for him. He went through so much to be with her. I mean, c'mon, he faught a dragon! lol

So, when I think of a prince. I think of the guy that will do anything for me, no matter how impossible it may seem.

Alright! Day 2!

Disney 30 Day challenge: Day 2! Favorite Disney Princess!

Ok, this one is easy. My favorite Disney Princess is Belle from Beauty and the Beast. I can relate to her the most. She is kind of a bookworm, very smart. She doesnt like Beast at first. She is frightened of him. I love how Beast must change for her, instead of the other way around. She is caring, and nurtuing, even to those who arent very nice to her.

So, Belle wins for this challenge :) Hands down.

30 Day Challenge: Day 1

So Haley found this amazing 30 day challenge on tumblr, and I just HAVE to do it!
 
So today is day 1...My favorite Disney Movie!
 

Ok, on this I am so torn! I have two favorites! lol
 
Beauty and the Beast is one of them. I absolutely LOVE Belle! She is so headstrong, and stubborn lol kinda like me. I also love the songs too. I swear, I could sing them all day long! And the story itself is amazing. It is about the Beast, and his imperfections. About trust, and finding out what is important in life.
 

Toy Story Is the other movie. The first one. It is just so fantastic! I have always wondered what happens to the toys when you leave the room. lol And Toy Story is very special to me because it is a movie that grew as I grew. Andy is the same age as me. He is going to college, like I am. And so this is a bit of noglastica for me, going back and seeing him when he was five. I felt like I myself was five again.
 
So stay tuned for the next challenge!

Pop Century: The "Forgotten" Years

So I should be making the reservations soon. lol
Pop Century is one of my favorite hotels not only for the price, but of the controversy surrounding its other half.
Pop Century was originally supposed to be opened at the end of 2001, but then the tragic event of September 11, 2001 and Florida's slow economy prevented this from happening.
But, half of Pop Century did eventually open in 2003. Pop Century Classic years, featuring the decades from the 1950s, 60s, 70s, 80s, and 90s are all up and running, but there is a dark cloud just across the hourglass lake: The unfinished half of the Pop Century Legendary Years.

The Legendary Years were supposed to feature the decades of the 1900s, 10s, 20s, 30s, and 40s. Compared to the bright colors and elaborate decorations of the Classic Years. The unfinished part of the Legendary Years look dark and haunting, not necessarily like a typical Disney Resort.

Many people don't like how this resort is not finished and they consider it an eyesore to look at. I personally find it completely fascinating. It's like the black sheep of Disney World. You know it's there, but no one really talks about it.

Or so I thought.

I was looking for a little more information on this matter and so I googled it. Well It took me to a lot of websites talking about River Country or Discovery Island. No one was really talking about Pop. Until I found a thread on the DIS Boards

Wow, many people wondered about this place too! I know the thread is a bit old, but it is a very good read.

So Jess, Caitie, Taylor when we stay at Pop we are definitely going to have to check this place out!

Graduation!

Well, I did it. I have graduated from high school. It is all oficially over. Now it doesnt matter what I got on my finals, or if I forgot to turn something in. It's all  over.

Saturday was such a hectic day. My stomach was in knots and me knees were shaking. I just wanted to hurry up and get it over with. So after about a million pictures, we are ready to head up to the community college audotorium. (Which was recently redone and looked amazing! lol) So, we get there and I see my best friend heading up to the building. So my mom stops her and we take a million more pictures! lol

So we get to the building and it was so hectic! lol But somehow, some way, we all line up and get ready to walk down the aisle and onto the stage.

It felt like we were on that stage for HOURS! It was so hot! lol But then, it was all over and we were tossing out hats up in the air! And then....it rained! lol So everyone was waiting in the covered area for someone to bring their cars around. While we were waiting I got some more pictures with my family. :)

Me, My mom and my Dad :)

So now, school is officially over!! lol And the countdown begins! :) I am super excited and I think that this summer will pass by very very quickly!
