Disney 2014: Days 6-7

It is officially one month until I leave for Disney!  So in honor of that I thought I would do as I did in my original Disney Announcement and give you a sneak peek into my trip from last year in preparation for this one!

Disney 2014: Day 6
9:15 a.m.
Magic Kingdom is hard to get into... so we just now got in.  You have to take a tram from the parking lot, a boat from the ticket center, and then go through the bag check! It is a solid 30 minute process!
This morning for breakfast I has one Hot Fudge Sundae pop-tart, and one Strawberry (me and Elijah traded!)
Today I am wearing pink mesh Danskin shorts with a black Mickey Mouse tank-top, sequin Minnie Mouse ears, Tiva sandals, and my Magic band, with a Tinker Bell bun!

10:50 a.m.
This morning so far we have ridden Space Mountain, Goofy's Barnstormer, Dumbo...

 and The Little Mermaid!


Now we are in Gaston's Tavern!

 We decided to have a La Fous Brew, which is basically overprice apple juice, but I think it's worth it! 
It is apple juice and toasted marshmallow flavor that is an icee consistency, with Mango Passionfruit foam!


They had this humongous oversized chair that our whole family could have fit in if we wanted to!  But you know Gaston, he must overcompensate! 

It was amazing... 
We tried to ride Winnie the Pooh earlier, but it broke down... so they gave us free fastpasses! Not even mad!

12:16 p.m.
Just got off Pooh!

Now we are headed to the Mad Tea Party!

1:12 p.m.
Lunch at the Grand Floridian Cafe!
I had a Rustic Chicken Sandwich with fries, and today was my "birthday" so they gave us a huge cupcake! At Disney they say Birthdays can be celebrated 365 days before or after the actual date, so needless to say we have eaten a lot of cake...
I apologize for my disgusting appearance...

Look at the tiles on the floor in the Grand Floridian!
Everything there is just perfect...


3:40 p.m.
Mickey's Philharmagic! After lunch we rode the monorail back to the Magic Kingdom and did Enchanted Tales with Bell.
It was a really 


5:22 p.m.
"It's a small world after all..."

8:41 p.m.
Since It's a Small World we have ridden The Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, and 
Now we are in line for our spot at the Dessert Party on the Tomorrowland Terrace! The dessert party is a special event where they feed you crazy amounts of sweets, while you watch the Wishes Fireworks from a perfect spot with a completely unobstructed view!

This was my first plate of dessert... Yes, I said first

And the colorful castle right before the fireworks!


10:45 p.m.
Just finished the Dessert Party! Time for some more rides!

12:45 a.m.
We JUST NOW got on the boat to leave the Magic Kingdom... After the party we rode Pirates of the Caribbean with a fastpass, and The Jungle Cruise and Aladdin's Magic Carpets with no wait! We rode Space Mountain, but it had a slightly longer wait.

2:30 a.m.
Sleep... it's a good thing 


Disney 2014: Day 7
9:30 a.m.
So... the parks opened an hour and a half or more ago, but we decided that after last night we couldn't handle another full day AND night like that! So we slept in a little.

11:19 a.m.
We are now on the monorail to the Magic Kingdom! After yesterday our thoughts on the whole ferry boat were "piss on that" to quote my father, Ha!
Today my family decided to wear our red matching t-shirts and tank-tops with pirate Mickey heads on the front! They are custom made by my Mom's friend. I am also wearing my black Danskin shorts, with my Tivas, Magic Band, and a pony tail with and accent braid.

11:45 a.m.
We just sat down for lunch at Beast's Castle at Be Our Guest!  I had wanted to eat here so badly, but the reservations were all taken!  Mom and dad worked their tales off, and didn't tell me when they finally made a reservation. They did this as a surprise for me, and told me this morning!
It is insane what you have to go through to get in here! We had reservations (and also had to pre-order), so we just had to wait in a little line.
 It is like a ride! There is a fastpass and standby line! 

For lunch we all split a turkey and a ham sandwich (which weren't just ordinary sandwiches, they were amazing!) and four orders of fries. 

But dessert was the awesome part! We had a triple chocolate cupcake, and two cupcakes with "the grey stuff", and it really was delicious!

The chandeliers and ceiling of the restaurant 

The windows were so cool! It looked like it was dark and snowing outside!

And of course, Beauty and the Beast!


2:19 p.m.
We are waiting for our Peter Pan fastpass while Elijah is playing Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom!
Its a card game where you find different animated portals around the Magic Kingdom and fight Disney villains!

Since lunch we have ridden The Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, Splash Mountain...
(Look at mom trying to hide!)

 and Peter Pan all with a Fastpass, and then the Philharmagic with no wait!

4:22 p.m.
Waiting in line for the Haunted Mansion! We made an extra fastpass, but it still has been a longer than expected wait!

5:25 p.m.
Dinner at Ohana's! 
It is an all you can eat set up where they bring you steak, pork, and shrimp on skewers, a plate of honey BBQ chicken and pork potstickers, a plate of lo mien noodles and cooked vegetables, and lettuce wraps. 


For dessert we had some kind of banana bread with ice cream. 

It was all amazing!

7:00 p.m.
We literally have eaten so much that we didn't possibly think we could survive walking around in a hot park... so we came back to the room for a little nap, and then back at it!

9:25 p.m.
On the monorail in route back to the Magic Kingdom! They had a surprise announcement earlier today to say they would be staying open an extra hour! So now we can ride until 1 a.m.!!

9:50 p.m.
In line to see Tinker Bell!
I know it is a little kid-ish kind of thing to wait in line to have your picture taken with characters, but I love her! And I had a Peter Pan book that I wanted her to sign to give to my little girl one day :)


11:16 p.m.
We have ridden Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin and The Little Mermaid with a fastpass, Goofy's Barnstormer with no wait, and are now in line for Pooh!

2:13 a.m.
On our way back to the hotel... after Pooh we rode Big Thunder Mountain TWICE, Splash Mountain, Pirates of the Caribbean, and Aladdin's Magic Carpets! Now, we are just about killed!

3:29 a.m.
Goodnight all :)

My Everyday/Travel Makeup Bag

So as I was putting together the list for makeup bag that I will have with me in the car when I go on my trip to the beach this summer, I decided that you might want to know exactly what's in there and why I bring them :) The first thing I going to show you is this awesome pallet I found in a discount makeup store: It is a "Sweet by Day, Sexy by Night" pallet. On one side it has a dark brown and a champagne shade eye shadow, a light and a dark shade of bronzer, a light and dark brown shade of lipgloss, and two small applicators. On the other it has a light shade of pink and an almost purple eye shadow, a light and dark shade of blush, a light and dark shade of pink lipgloss, and two small applicators. You can buy it at www.amazon.com/day-to-night for $5. I thought this was the most simple way to pack all that i would need! Next I'm going to show you the face products I am bringing: They are: The Rimmel London Stay Matte Powder The ELF Aloe Infus...

Winter As a College Student

Let me just tell you, there isn't a thing in the world fun about a dorm room in the winter!  On the happen chance that yours is as old as mine (pre-1960s, thank you very much) you probably have radiators too, which personally, I have very little control over.  Even on the off setting they exude so much heat that the room is stifling!  And then you open the window and snow starts blowing in... Yay Appalachian Mountains! Let's just all agree that is quite a process.  So what is one to do to combat these cold (and getting colder!) temperatures? First, I've got two B's for you (mostly because I couldn't come up with a third...)  Blankets and Bedwarmers! Let's face it, dorm rooms are tiny and your bed is the focus of the majority of decor, as well as where you will be spending a large portion of your time (yay Netflix binges!) so you need to make sure it is super cozy! Personally, I have my sheets and comforter that I sleep under every night.  ...

VoxBox: Tressemé Beauty-Full Volume

I know I don't usually post at 9 o'clock on Monday nights, but I wanted to go ahead and get this out to you all while I had time, because... I got another VoxBox! This one was the Tresemmé Reverse Your Routine box with a full sized shampoo and conditioner. This is a Volumizing system, and is reffered to as "Reverse Your Routine" because you conditioner before you shampoo... Weird right?  I have to say I was a little confused and skeptical at first. The concept is that when you put conditioner in your hair and rinse then residue is left on weighing down your hair.  My thoughts were that the residue left were the moisturizing properties and that you wouldn't want to rid yourself of all of them... It just seemed a little pointless. I have been using this combination periodically for a few weeks now, and surprisingly I actually really like it!  When I get out of the shower my hair does feel much lighter than usual.  Though it is hard to tell if I have...
