Disney 2016: Day 4

6:10 a.m.
We are officially on Disney time... And today we are going to Hollywood studios! They open at 8:45, and we are going to be standing at the gates! We didn't get back until late last night, and then after packing park bags and showers... It was late. So I forgot to say goodnight, and I apologize!

Today I am wearing a Tinkerbell tank top from the Disney outlet a few years ago, Old Navy athletic shorts, Teva sandals, Glitter Minnie Ears from Jane/Etsy, my magic band and FitBit, and my hair just scrunched like any other day.

10:25 a.m.
We just sat down to watch Voyage of The Little Mermaid! We got in a few minutes early this morning, and have since rode Rock n' Roller coaster and Star Tours.

Since Star Wars is so popular right now it has became Hollywood Studios main focus.  They built the "Launch Bay" with memorabilia, and character meet and greets.  They organized a fireworks show (aside from Fantasmic, Star Wars replaced the Frozen craze), and have hourly shows in the middle of the park.  After the shows end the characters go back to their doors to go backstage scattered around the park, so you see character waling around all the time!  We saw a whole line of Stormtroopers...

R2D2, who moves on his own I might add...

and Darth Maul!  He was cool looking and a bit scary!

11:31
Frozen Sing Along time!
My preteen brother was toooootally too cool to be there, but I was loving it!

2:50 p.m.
We had ate a late lunch at Mama Melrose! 

We had calamari and caesar salad as an appetizer, and then I steak with macaroni (best steak ever) for my meal. 

We shared two dessert platters that had an orange sponge cake, tiramisu, and passion fruit cheesecake.

We always choose Mama Melrose because we can do the Fantasmic Dinner package.  You pay a set price for the meal and get an appetizer, salad, dinner, and dessert, and tickets to the show!

After watching the Frozen Sing Along earlier we had a bit of a rest, and then went to watch the Muppets show.  It is by far one of our favorites in this park!

They have the cutest fountain outside of the muppets theatre!

5:00 p.m.
Just sat down to watch Beauty and the Beast!

It is the cutest show and we always love it, but they need to add a few more fans to this 90 degree outdoor theatre!

6:00 p.m.
We finally got to watch Indiana Jones! As many times as we've been to Disney now it has always been too crowded or shut down for weather or something that prevents us from riding it!

And after we used a fastpass for the Tower of Terror!  It is by far one of our favorites!

9:00 p.m.
After Indiana Jones we saw Olaf!

He didn't even have that long of a wait, I was shocked!  And he was soooo cute!  So many warm hugs!

And then we used a fast pass for the Great Movie ride!

We skipped it the first couple of times we came, but after we finally gave it a shot I was really impressed!  It takes you through scenes of different iconic movies (not just Disney!) with a tour guide!  It is also interactive, because either a gangster or cowboy take over your tour and interact with different scenes!

We also rode Toy Story Mania, which is one of our favorites, and after getting out we got to see the Green Army Men!  That was a first!

I just love this whole area, it makes you feel like a toy!

And the signs are super cute.

Though they don't sign autographs, you can have your picture taken with no wait, and then after playing some games with us they marched away!

 Now we are about to watch Hollywood Studio's fireworks show, Fantasmic!  But before we go, how about a Mickey pretzel??

The ending of Fantasmic is my favorite, I love seeing them all on the boat with Steamboat Mickey!


12:00 a.m.
It's been a long day and Fantasmic was fantastic... But now time for bed, see you all tomorrow!



Thank you all so much for reading! I thought it would be fun to have a little summer Disney sun to brighten up snowy winter days!  If you missed yesterday you can see Day 3 here, or go to the Disney 2016 tag to see the full series!

Homemade Beauty: Ice Facial

It may not sound very pleasant, but running an ice cube over your face has a ton of benefits for your skin! They will help to smooth your complexion by combating fat cells, easing wrinkles, fighting acne, and promoting blood circulation that will help heal past blemishes!  Be sure to  wrap the cubes  in a paper towel, or a baggie  because applying them directly to your skin can cause delicate blood vessels to break For an added  benefits to this  treatment, try freezing your cubes with watermelon, lemon, or rose!

Let's Talk...

I feel so bad, I have been such a flake with posting recently and the past month is when I should have been really focused on getting out content, because.... My summer classes started this week. And they are intense. Like, more so than I expected and I'm only a week in. Also, I just got my Summer schedule for the daycare I work at, and instead of my normal 9:30-5:30, I was switched to  6:00-12:30 ...  That is a huge difference, I've never gotten up that early in my life!  It is a lot better in some ways because I now have my full days free, but it's a difficult sleep schedule to get used to.   As a result, I've been spending my mornings at work, and my evenings doing homework, or attempting to have a social life...  This is my last Summer before college after all, so I want to have fun!  But it just makes things more difficult when I need to be in bed early for work, balance homework, and then there is this blog. I love having this...

What I Did This Month... November

This has been a month of quite a few firsts... I got my first job!! I am working at a daycare with kids ages 2-12 in the afternoons after school. I am really liking it, and I don't have to work weekends or Holidays so is is great! And then I got my second job... Back in the Summer I asked my cousin about having a job in his clothing store, and he told me that I could be a gift-wrapper closer to the Holidays. So I am doing that on Saturdays! I mean, I'm not complaining (much), I am making good money! But oh my gosh... I have been so tired! I started out the month making Triple Salted Caramel Cupcakes for my Mommy's birthday! The next semi-interesting thing I did this month was go to my neighbor/sister(sort of) wedding! I was a Guest Book Person/Dress Fluffer and Holder/Unofficial Bridesmaid... In all reality I have absolutely no idea what I was! But it was a pretty wedding, and we had fun :) This was her getting her hair done... Her and her (now) husband dec...
