Hello fellow Disney lovers!

My name is Dréa (dray-uh)! I was born and raised in southern California and am an annual pass holder to Disneyland. I'm at the sweet, young age of 19 (that's sweet enough, right? :laughing:). I graduated a year early from high school ('09, woo!) and had also finished college by then majoring in theater. I then enlisted into the Air Force, but unfortunately was separated last August. A couple months later I worked at UCLA full time as an electronics technician and archivist of the Herb Alpert School of Music. I then enrolled back into school at Bryan College here in LA studying court reporting.

As for Disney.. oh my goodness. My very first trip ever was when I was about two years old to Florida to venture to Walt Disney World and the Caribbean onboard the Big Red Boat (anybody here remember that?! Haha!). My entire family is made up of Disney fanatics. We have been pass holders since before I can remember, and I've been to Disneyland more times in my 19 years of living than most will probably ever go in a lifetime. I absolutely love Walt Disney World and have a condo out in Orlando close by WDW. I'm also a pass holder there. One of my heavy interests is pin trading.. so if you have any pins you're looking to trade, feel free to message me ;)

Anywho, just joined the boards, although I've seen many of you around through frequent visits throughout the months. My membership here is long overdue. Please feel free to drop me a line! I'm always down to make good friends who share the same passion for Disney as I do.

No no, I went to school in Santa Clarita, Texas, and now Los Angeles. I have been super busy! Surprised I'm not already growing some grays, haha! Nah, I've enjoyed every minute of everything I've done. It's been quite a ride!

And thank you, Metro West!

I guess instead of being depressed I can call it IMpressive! Haha but that's seriously awesome that you have 2 degrees already! How'd you get them so quickly though if you don't mind me asking?

Thank you, thank you!! My first degree (theater) was earned because I attended high and college simultaneously. My second degree (airborne operations) was earned in the Air Force, and working on my third one now :)

Haha possibly! Which ones are you looking for? If I don't have them, I'm going to Disneyland for pintrading on Thursday, so I'll be on the lookout for you!

(Do you have any Alice, Aladdin, or Tangled? Haha!)

Unfortunately I'm just an amateur pin collector so I just have some basic ones. I started when I was doing the college program! I do have some pretty sweet buzz lightyear pins though! Haha I appreciate you checking for me! It must be nice having Disney in your backyard! Haha :)

Pin trading is the BEST! Which Buzz pins do you have? Shoot me some pictures of the Star Wars ones you're looking for and I'll keep an eye out tomorrow. :)
