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!

Nadine West: Fourth Shipment

So this wasn't the most successful shipment ever, but I still got one nice piece out of it!  And they left me a sweet surprise which I'll tell you about at the end, so I wasn't upset at all! This is actually two items from my shipment!  This outfit contains both the shirt and leggings from this month, and they kind of go together!   Though I really liked the pattern of the leggings, they are much more like tights.  They were totally see through, which made me pretty sad.  If they were marketed as tights then I wouldn't be too disappointed, but these were called Leggings.  They retailed for $14.49, and I didn't keep them. The shirt fit very well and was extremely comfy.  I have been looking for a shirt this color, so I was pretty excited to see it in my bag, even though it is pretty basic.  This shirt also retailed for $14.49, and I did elect to keep it! These are the "Beauty Within" earrings, and I'm actually pretty sure I rece...

College Countdown: Basic College Packing List

In this list I'm not going to go over every single thing.  Throughout this week I will do separate posts on Clothing and Makeup etc.  On Saturday of this week I will post a concise version of this including everything mentioned.  For now I would just like to go over basics such as kitchen items, "school supplies" and other items you may not have thought of! Kitchen These are basics that you might need if you are in a dorm and do not necessarily have a kitchen.  I will have a sink, so it will be doable for me to wash dishes as needed.  If you do not have a sink you might consider buying disposable silverware and dishes so you won't have to wash them in the bathroom. Plastic Bowls Plastic Cups Tumblers or Reusable Water Bottles - I recommend this regardless of if you have a sink. Brita Pitcher - The water will probably be different from what you are used to, and this will make the transition easier Ice Cube Trays Plastic Ice Cubes - If the water is jus...
