Shopaholics first solo Disney trip! A May 2012 PTR! 9/18 Dorm Room Pics!

[hollisterluva92]

I almost missed your post before I signed off. I like the way your PTR is set up, it catches my interest. Oh goodness, a cruise, that sounds like fun, I have never been on one but my older brother said it was pretty much non stop eating. I am not sure if that was just him though, lol.

I think you should be a Disney trip planner! You really seem to know your stuff in great detail and perhaps that job comes with some great employee discounts Some of the food you listed sounds divine. My mouth watered when I read butterfinger cheesecake. I don't have any nannying advice. But joining a church is a great way to get some baby sitting jobs. I'm trying to get some baby sitting jobs in my area as well.

Well good thing you caught it! Thanks, I try to make it so that people will read and respond! My grandpa and Uncle went on a cruise two years ago and they loved it! Keep reading! I have another new update coming in a little while with tons of shopping pics!!!!!

Shopping Update!!!​

Welcome! Foolish Mortals, to the Haunted Mansion, I am your host, your ghost host. Hmmmm. Our tour begins here, in this gallery. Here where you see paintings of some of our guests, as they appeared in their corruptible, mortal state. Kindly step all the way in please, and make room for everyone. There's no turning back now...(room is now stretching) Your cadaverous palour, betrays an aura of foreboding, almost as though you sense a disquieting metamorphosis. Is this Haunted room actually stretching? Or is it your imagination, hhmm? And consider this dismaying observation, this chamber has no windows, and no doors. Which offers you this chilling challenge, to find a way out! Of course, there's always my way...


Anyways, back to our regularly scheduled programming!!! Sorry I haven't updated in a few days! Yesterday I helped my Grandma put away all of the ornaments from our 12 Christmas trees (yes, I said 12! And each one has a different theme!) (Oh! And she has 18 total, we just didn't put all of them up!). I also went to Sams Club and did some grocery shopping and then spent the evening playing canasta with my grandparents and watching tv! This morning I woke up with a migrane and I had it all day But i'm feeling better now! Tomorrow We're supposed to get 8+ inches of snow which is more than we've had total this year so I will be stuck inside which means I will be able to do a huge photo update since i'll be emptying my camera's memory card! I wanted to show you guys some of the things i'm planning on buying in the next few months for my trip!

I have the small version of this bag, and I have the shirt, ears, and Hoodie, but I am also planning on getting the shorts and the other bag!

I will leave you all with some pictures I played around with today on Picnik and some previous trip pics!!! See ya'll tomorrow!!!

That purse is so cute! Your gonna be stylish on your upcoming trip. 8 different themed trees?! Do you have any pictures of them by chance? My family doesn't celebrate Xmas, but I love love love looking at the trees and lights. What kinda themes do you guys have up?

Oh how was Tangled? I haven't seen it yet. I think I am going to have to wait until it is available to rent to watch it. Haven't been having any luck with the boys, so no theater dates. Still working on it .

Bags and Shoes!​

BLUE FAIRY - When stars are born, they possess a gift or two.
One of those is, they have the power to make a wish come true.

Star light, star bright,
first star I see tonight.
I wish I may, I wish I might,
have the wish, I wish tonight.
We'll make a wish, and do as dreamers do,
and all our wishes (all our wishes),
will come true.

When you wish, upon a star
Makes no difference who you are
Anything your heart desires will come...to...you.

Good morning everyone! Yesterday I started working on my trip binder! I printed out a ton of info, and i'm going to keep working today and take pics! I need to go out this weekend and buy a 3-hole punch and some dividers, but other than that, everything is turning out great! Now for the main stuff....SHOES AND BAGS!!! Most Women's two favorite things (besides Disney, of course )

Shoes​

For my trip, I'm going to buy some new shoes! I only have one pair of good Disney Tennis Shoes and I'm wanting at least another pair! So! Here are the contenders:
I have two options for Tennis Shoes, tell me which ones you like more!

And these, I won't buy them because they're velcro, but I wish they had ones with laces!

I'm also buying these crocs!

And these pairs of flip flops!
These are for the pool

Tevas!

Lastly are the Havaianas! I'm probably going to buy two pairs of these, just not sure which ones!

Bags!!!​

As for bags! I'll start with my luggage! Right now I don't have a luggage set...I have a small pink suitcase, but that's the size of a carry-on, and my big suitcase is green tweed so I need a new set! Here's the ones I love!

As for my Carry-On, I have my Purse, a coach poppy tote:

And I'm also going to buy a duffel bag, like one of these:

And then for my Park bag I'm going to get one of these:

And a small hipster, like this one!

I hope everyone's enjoying their day! I'm eating yummy parmesan crusted halibut, and it is SO GOOD! I'm still working on my trip binder, and I'm printing more stuff out as we speak!

I'll be back in a little bit once I finish my binder with pictures! Oh! Journey into Imagination just came on!!!!

I have to say I love your new carry-on bag! I'm not usually a Coach person but that one is really cute. Maybe it's because it's my favorite color. hehe Looking forward to more of your plans!

Hi, I was just reading through my pre trip report and saw that you had a new link!

a solo trip or a family cruise, both sound very exciting...and I love all the aeropostale purchases, and the Coach bag is lovely. Wat do you think of the Dooney & Bourke Disney Bags?

Yay! You finally found it! I LOVE the D&B Disney bag! I already have the pink wristlet, and I put the regular white one on my Christmas list but I didn't get it I'll definitely be putting it on my next birthday list, or just buy it if I ever have enough money!

Moving To Florida???​

Yes, you all heard it right..........I might be moving to Orlando This all started technically about two years ago when I started applying for college. I've always wanted to move to Orlando and do the Disney College Program! Well, I was looking into it and they didn't have anything really that applied to my major: nursing. So! I talked to my mom about just applying at a college down there and seeing what happened! Fast Forward to 3 months later, when I got my acceptance letter to the college, but....I didn't get enough of a scholarship to be able to go. Fast Forward again to about 3 weeks ago. I've since moved to Missouri last June, I'm living with my Grandparents and I'm going to community college. I found out that after this semester I will be able to apply for the nursing program where I currently go to school. I talked to my mom and Grandparents about possibly moving to Orlando and going to the University of Central Florida, and they all said I should apply! So! As soon as I can, i'm applying, and either this fall or next spring, I should be moving to Orlando! I am so beyond excited because more than anything I want to be able to live on my own. I'll have to start out living in a Dorm since I will only be a Sophmore, but after that i'll be able to live on my own, and I am thrilled! So! Depending on when I move down there, I will buy my annual pass to DW and I'll also be able to go to Disney whenever! Which is the biggest thrill of all to me!

Back to right now! I don't start my new semester until next Wed. so I am still technically on vacation! I just got down cleaning a ton and finally got the chance to relax! Now! I'm not sure how many of you have heard of "mama cloth" but if you haven't, google it! It is cloth menstrual pads! I just recently found my mom's sewing machine that she bought my Grandma a few years back, and it is still basically brand new! I got the bright idea to start sewing my own mama cloth so now I have been fabric shopping all morning and I'm going to Joann's tomorrow to buy some more. If anyone who is reading this is interested in buying some from me, my facebook is www.facebook.com/pink1234star I will be opening up my own facebook page, Etsy shop, and Hyena Cart shop as soon as I get everything up and running! Also, if anyone has any ideas for fabrics they would like, let me know so I can pick some up! Trip related! Not much on that front, but I am still working on my new trip binder! Here's some previous trip pictures from last April to round out the post! Have a great Friday!

Forget the stupid time stamp...I didn't have it set on my camera lol!

These are all from 1996, 1997, and 2004

Oh wow so many updates. Florida wow that sounds like it will be awesome, I hope the works out well for you. Maybe you can get a part time job with Disney if you won't be too busy with school of course. Before you know it you will be able to live out on your own, how exciting is that?! I'm working towards that as well.

 

[arielrebornxoxo]

I can't get the link to your facebook to work, I wanted to see the mamacloth you are talking about. Do I have to make a facebook too in order to see it?
