Lesson learned. Need more days in Disney!!! Aug 2010 (NEW 1/20-COMPLETE)

[YukiPhnx]

I'm thinking the multi-eye is the way to go.

Yesssss!!!

You read my mind!

Very cool...I've never seen this.

I should've taken more pictures! Pirate's League isn't covered enough on the DIS.

Awesome! I'm surprised you went with the whole beard and everything. You must have gotten a few looks throughout the day.

Well, I wanted what I paid for! Which included the beard. Ohhhh, I got a LOT of attention during the day. Which is what I like anyways. More on the next update.

Exactly what I would've done.

Are you calling yourself lame too?

That sounds like a riot!

I wish I could show everybody the video of that part. Andrew was like, "I can't believe you can't remember all that!"

I love the look on the lady behind you in this picture!

I think the theme of my photos are, spot the odd looking bystander! But wow, I've never noticed that!

You have more balls than I ever would have! You look amazing, how fun!! I love the pic of both of you in the pirate garb, too funny!

Haha, I have a LOT of balls. Andrew keeps saying it looks like I fell asleep drunk and someone drew on my face. I think he's just jealous that I'm a pirate and he's not.

Yeah, I love that picture of us together too! The sun was just shining beautifully that day.

 

[Dina Monster]

awesome! I think that is so cool you got to be a Pirate was everyone starting at you in the park? I know I get stares with my Stitch ears.

I didn't dress up at all, because I was not on the down low for current anime. I just took pictures. I was dressed nicely though hhaha. I think I will dress up in a Yukata for the next con because it's the biggest in Tucson and the theme this year is the Matsuri, so I think it will be apporiate and since I'll be the volunteer coordinator it will be easy to find me. I think I see less and less people each year wearing them. I love them!

Here is a picture of me in it. If you scroll down to till you find the picture with the caption: "Yukata for Halloween? I was passing out candy this past year for Halloween and I seriously didn't have anything else to wear so I grabbed my yukata and stuck an robe under it to keep me warm. Believe it or not it gets cold in Arizona!
Dina / Tucson, AZ U.S.A" That is me in the Yukata I plan to wear for the Con.

Happy Valentine's Day everybody!!!!!

 

[dizneeat]

Happy Valentine's Day, Yuki!

 

[MAGICFOR2]

Hope you had a great Valentine's Day, Yuki! I thought I posted before, but I don't see it, so I guess not. I know I read. What a cute little Pirate you are!!! How fun that your pack 0' loot helped both of you to get in to character!

 

[ZeroToHero]

Aww, I love those pins! Haha. Happy (Belated) Valentine's Day! Did you guys go out to dinner or anything?

 

[jenbear123]

Hey Yuki! Happy belated Valentine's Day!!! You made one awesome pirate! I would've totally chosen the most obscure make up to put on my face. I can see why it'd be so popular during MNSSHP if you're dressed up as a pirate. I'm glad you were able to get the black and red bandana too. I don't understand why these places always automatically assume a girl will want the pink, frilly things. I know this is an entirely different species but just as an example, my dog. I take her to the groomers and they always put bows on her ears. I think it looks dumb and always take them out right away. The boy dogs always get a bandana. Now if you were a dog, which would you rather have? A cool bandana or girly pink bows tied to your ears?

Thanks Tammie! I loved how well my ears and the bandana worked together. I thought the fake teeth was really gross, but Andrew really liked it!

Aww, I love those pins! Haha. Happy (Belated) Valentine's Day! Did you guys go out to dinner or anything?

I wish I could have those pins, they're so cuute!

Well actually, we didn't spend it together. His parents are in the country for the week and knowing his dad's opinion of me...we just decided to forego Valentine's day this year. He bought me a Magic Bullet set though! With the blender, too!

Hey Jen! I hope you had a nice weekend with your boyfriend!

The cursed pirate looked really cool, but I'm very glad I didn't do that one. The make-up came off WAY too easily.

If I were a dog, I'd totally go for the cool bandana. I mean, who wants their ears to be tied up in ribbons anyway?

And yeah. I was pretty disappointed that they really didn't have that many options for girls at pirate's league, but then the same could be said about BBB. The girl also usually gets the pink eye patch, but I definitely wanted the black one.

I think I remember seeing one little girl with the Captain Hook make-up. It was adorable

 

[YukiPhnx]

Hey everybody, I just had something pretty scary happen over the weekend. I was physically assaulted by another member of a club I'm part of on campus. It was due to me blocking her on msn because she was a very unpleasant person to talk to. She confronted me about it and then slapped me across my face and hit my head a couple of times.

I was at a club meeting and nobody expected her to get that violent. My friends told me to report her to Campus Police, which is what I did last night.

It was a pretty scary thing...My glasses got bent so I had to blindly find my way home.

I just thought I should tell you guys this because I've been meaning to catch up with everybody this weekend, but then this thing happened. I hope everybody else had a much better (and maybe even a romantic) weekend!

 

[Lifelong_Dreamer]

Oh my gosh Yuki, you did the right thing in reporting it. If the behaviour continues you should also file a report with the police.

 

[heathsf]

Oh wow how awful! Good thing you reported it and I'm glad you're okay. Always do whatever you have to to protect yourself!

 

[englishrose47]

How awful Yuki !! Hope she gets her just desserts for that!!!I had a pretty wild Valentines day at second job !! One consumer got bent outta shape at us and that started it another whacked her and the ran away !!It was like a Domino effect then they all satrted acting up !! All we could really do is keep thenm seperate until they calmed which they did and at least No Knifes or bricks this time

Judy has car woes apparently her emergency brake is not working and a friend said it didn't seem like it was even hooked up , she called the dealership and told them and they said well it must have been it passed last year she said YES YOu passed it before I bought it and YOU are fixing it !!!!So we will see tomorrow !!!

 

[jenbear123]

Oh my gosh Yuki! I hope you are okay. That was quite the immature thing for her to do. I mean, you can talk these things over without resorting to violence. Wow... some people.... Anyways, good on you for reporting her. I hope she gets what's coming to her!

 

[Dina Monster]

Oh no Yuki I hope you are okay! I can't believe that happened to you! I hope your road to recovery physically and emotionally is a swift one! I will keep you in my thoughts!

 

[kristina87]

Wow Yuki that is crazy! I'm glad you are okay other than probably being shaken up. What a crazy biatch! I can see why you decided to block her, yeesh! I hope the campus police take you seriously and she doesn't get away with it, how immature! Big hugs from Saint Louis!

 

[Flossbolna]

Yuki, what a horrible experience! I hope you are all right.

It seems like she was not only unpleasant to talk to online, but also in real life. She appears to be in need of learning how to deal with aggression... I think reporting the incident was exactly the right thing to do. Hitting someone on the head is actually a very dangerous thing to do, I am happy that nothing too bad happened to you. But when I worked as a public prosecutor I saw enough cases of people being severely injured (broken jaw bones etc.) from a plain hit on the head!

 

[glennbo123]

I'm sorry to read that Yuki. I hope you're okay.

 

[PennyLane1084]

Yay! A Yuki Update!!!!!

Rope Drop!! I want to do Rope Drop at MK when I go so bad, but I don't know how Steve would feel about getting up that early.
Ok, so growing up I had this Disney Sing-Along tape that was shot at Magic Kingdom. The first song was "Whistle While We Work" and all the characters were tidying up the park and getting it ready for the opening. Then they showed the Rope Drop. I didn't know until I came on the DIS, that this whole ceremony actually existed. I always thought it was just on the sing-along tape. It would be a dream since I was little to go to rope drop.

Chapter 16. Day 4 pt.1- My oh my, what a wonderful day!Even thought I didn’t see much of it (partly due to my height, and partly due to where I was standing), it was still SUCH A JOY to hear that Welcome song, and the mayor, and Mickey’s voice. I love countdowns. Of any kind. New years, release of Harry Potter books, park openings, love them all! So I was very excited to finally get into the Magic Kingdom.

Yuki, I love that you used Harry Potter book releases as an example of a countdown. You are too adorable.

Ok, I just need to interrupt this TR to let y’all know that the Welcome song is stuck in my head right now. All because of the cds Jen gave me. It’s SUCH a catchy song! And so is the medley of trolley songs. “I’m going right down the middle of Main street, USA...” Ok...now THAT’S stuck in my head. We now return to the regular programming.

Back to that Sing-Along tape I told you about earlier. This song was in the video. My mom loved this song and would always sign it whenever she thought about MK, especially the morning we were going there while getting ready. No one else ever heard this song, they'd always be like "What Disney Movie is that from?" and I'd say "Um, it's not from a movie, I think it's from the Magic Kingdom." and nobody ever understood what I meant. You are the first person I've ever known how knows this song. Well you and now Jen. As soon as I read the lyrics I started bouncing around and singing the song at my computer. lol.

What are these songs on this CD that Jen made for you and where can I get them???

Next on my list was Buzz, but on our way there, I met my favourite Disney furry creature of all, STITCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! There was NO LINE. I was so LUCKY!!!! So, of course, I RAN towards him, being the giddy little 6-yr old that I am.

OH MY GAWD, I love Stitch soooo much. I told him that I loved him and he hugged me again. Then I showed him my Stitch keychain on my bag, and he acted all happy and blew me a kiss!!!! Oh my gosh, I love him so much. Look how HAPPY I am.

I guess the early bird get the STITCH!!! this part literally made my heart burst with Joy!!! I was so excited that you met Stitch!! And you do look SO happy.

Andrew did so much better than me. I think about...80 000 points BUT, he wasn’t able to get a picture of his score in time and got this.

It’s over 9 thousand!!!!! (Well of course it is, but I’m referencing something. Kristin and Dina will get it)

OVER 9 THOUSAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here’s our redneck photo of the ride.

Andrew thinks I look really cute in this one. I actually knew when the picture was being taken, so I posed for this one. The unposed version would definitely not be as cute.

I love that you posed for this photo.

Your Pirate-y outfit is super cute Yuki! I think I might have to join the Pirate League when I go. Pirates are so awesome.

Haunted Mansion is one of my favorite rides of all time. I haven't been on it since the Rehab a few years ago.

 

[PennyLane1084]

BEST. PICTURE. EVER.

That is all.

 

[vamassey1]

Sorry to read about your horrible confortation. You did the right thing by reporting it. I hope things have calmed down for you and gotten better.
