2 months, 1 week, 17 hours, 13 mins, 35, 34, 33, 32,....
Who the hell convinced me to put one of those TimeLeft softwares in my work's computer. I swear it stopped working last month....Oh!, Hi! Didn't notice you there. So glad you stop by my First Attempt to make a pre-trip...Since you are here...let me introduce our cast!
DB: aka Pirate Stitch. 25. Computer Engineering Student, Lovely geek, love video games, learning, photography and travel (and me , of course), 4th Trip to Disney, but first on-site.
Me aka Pirate Tink.27. Computer Engineer but starting a MFA in Photography. Geek. Felt in love with Disney on my first (and only) trip. Compulsive planner. Scrapbooker. Moving to Atlanta Soon...(Woohoo, 6 hours from FL
)
Now, that we've been properly introduced, lets give u a little Background:
While growing-up, my parents never were to thrilled about going to Disney (yes, I know, but I promise they are GOOD parents). So, we never went and our love for Disney were only for the movies. But, my luck changed when in 2005, I won a 4 days/3 nights in a Days Inn in Kissimmee. "Yes, a chance to go th Florida and swim with the dolphins" I thought. So, like a good planner compulsive I am, I started planning...Added 2 days to our stay, reserved Discovery Cove which gave us a Sea World Pass, then a good real deal to Universal and Islands of adventure...Umm, I have one and a half day left to do something...Going to FL and not going to Disney is like not going at all. So, a Disney 2-day was added...Little did I know that those two days were the begin of a Disney addiction...
This is us, back then...when I wasn't a Disney addict...
We had a blast on that trip...but when I saw the photos...I KNEW that I need to loose some weight...so, I did!
July 2006....While working on the Trip Scrapbook...(Yeap, a Year later...)
Me: "Umm, I don't like how I look on these pics"
DB: "Well, you are 45lbs less, babe"
Me: "I need to have better pics"
DB: "Uh? What you mean?"
Me: "WE NEED TO GO BACK, to take better pics, I mean...I NEED IT!"
DB: " I don't like that look on your face..."
Me: "What you are doing from July 8-19?"
DB: "What?!?!?"
Me: "I booked a 8 days/7 nights to AKL and 5 days/4 nights to HRH @ Universal...Don't Worry...I'll pay for it. I'm the worker here...hehe"
DB: "
"
And that's how this adventure begins...
NEXT: How to start planning a Disney vacation...Planner Freak Style!

I was wondering where you were. I almost PM you to let you know about my tripie! So glad you found it!! Thanks!! I love that t-shirt and it's going with me in this trip!!!! BTW, Is that Reboot in your sig??? OMG, I loved that show! Hexadecimal, Megabyte, Enzo, the Mainframe...it was so COOL! 
"I HAVE TO WAIT!"
...Thank GOD that it was near Xmas and the Holiday Spirit made me forgot for a little while about it. 
" or the day I almost lost my job.
I love ReBoot! There is a new Art of ReBoot book coming out, and that inspired me to put the pic in my signature. It was a great show!
...and moving there in August), when I came back, I was received by the awful new that my company were making cuts.
...And a loud crack !...my heart started to fall into pieces...
"Let's try to sell somethings, cut my "diversion" money...Umm I think I could make it"...So I took another risk...continuing with the plans. And It turned out to be the best. 2 months later, we were back to normal...WITH FULL CHECK and Everything....so, I feel more relief now
...I WANT AN ALBUM for the Next TRIP with me THINNER
