I Bought a Nikon D40 DSLR. I'll be starting my Masters in Photography this fall so I needed a good Camera. It's very good camera a little complicated at first but it's pretty easy to get used to.


OMG OMG OMG!!!!

JUST 30 DAYS TO GO!!!!!

Nice camera. Do you what kind of photography you want to do after you finish school?

So, do you have shirts for every day of your trip now?

Almost, let me see, I'll be there 8 days and I have a t-shirt for: 1st day, AK, hotel day, Lilo&Stitch, Princess Breakfast. I'll already bought a Jack Sparrow T-shirt and a Think t-shirt...so yeap pretty much I have a t-shirt for every day.

Nice camera. Do you what kind of photography you want to do after you finish school?

Thanks. Well, I want to teach for a while. I also like Wedding photography, I want to have a Wedding planner business eventually. But, I'm pretty much open for any oportunity...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yes, I'm sorry...I haven't post any more photo but I promise they'll come as soon as my DB returned my SD card to my camera

Meanwhile...

25 DAYS!!!

See ya soon!

 

[silverangel879]

Hello Everyone!!!

I know I posted the remaining time already...but I like to see it....So here it goes again...

25 DAYS TO GO!!!

YEAY!!! Less than a month....Uh Oh...I should start packing! Oh, Wait! I already did...
Yeap, as a good DISer as I think I am, I started packing at the beginning of June. I bought some new shorts and finished another t-shirt...and started packing. I'm traveling with one luggage, a bag (for carry on) with some necessities and the Camera backpack...Wanna see??

This is my luggage. You can see that Jedi Mickey is more anxious than me. He's already in!!

This is my carry-on. This will contains things that we could need right on. Since We'll be using Magic Express I want to be prepared and not depend on my luggage. Things like Mickey ears, sun block, bathing suit (in case we want to get in before Downtown Disney), first day cloth, and some change cloth.

I'm working in the logistic of the weekend. We leave Sunday, July 8th. But, We are attending a Friend's Wedding on Saturday, 7th. The Wedding is an Hour from my home. But, since I'm the maid of honor hug, I need to be @ her House early that day. So, the car need to be packed on Friday July 6th. The Wedding is @4:30pm. After the Wedding (around 11:30pm) I or DB have to drive 2 hours to DB's parents house (they live 20 min from the airport, so they are taking us and taking care of my car!). Try to sleep a little bit and wake-up @ 5:30am to be at the Airport at 6:30am (2 hours before our flight as recommended). The plane leaves @ 8:30am.

To give you a better Idea of the distance from one point to another, here is a Puerto Rico Map. From my home to the bride's house is 1 hour, and from the wedding to DB's parents is 2 hours.

So it's going to be intense! That's why the first day of my day @ Disney it's shopping! I'll need a rest!!!

I'm also working in finding my tiara for the Arkensus Princess Breakfast. I don't know what is gotten into me. But every since I see the t-shirt for the breakfast, I just want a tiara.

The t-shirt:

And some tiaras I'm looking:

or maybe a simple one:

What you think?

I did this Countdown and put it in the fridge...

I crossed the first day, and it felt soooo good.

So, as you can see, I'm on my way...I have two more t-shirts to make and finish packing...OMG OMG...Less than a month, PEOPLE!!!!

MICKEY, JACK , Tink, Stitch....here we come!

 

[silverangel879]

24 DAYS!!!

Umm, I wonder when my AAA Disney package will arrive...I need to call my AAA TA to check with her...In the meanwhile, MORE PACKING!!

See you soon with more photos!

THANKS FOR READING!

 

[silverangel879]

oh! Do I see a 20 on my ticker???
Woohoo!!! It is 20!!!!

20 days to go!!!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

A short update: I emailed my TA @ AAA and she told me that my package arrived but I have to pick it up at the office . I already knew that...the bad thing? They are open only M-F from 9am to 5:30pm (my hours office too ). Their office is 2 hours from my office so it's not going to be easy to get it. So, I emailed her back asking if they can make a little exception and send it to me via FedEx. I'm waiting for her answer...OMG! My things are 2 hours from me... Maybe I could make a little exception myself and take half day from the office to get it ! ...NOT! I can't

I Guess now I have to wait for her answer!!!!

Stay tuned...

19 DAYS

Just 19 days left!!...OMG...19 days! I have too much to do!!! I need to speed up a little. I have to finish the packing for Disney AND the moving. You see, I rented my house (since I'm moving to Atlanta) and I need to empty it by June 30. A great friend of mine lend me a room at her house for the 6 weeks left that I have in PR. So, I'm double packing. A little bit crazy, I know! But as you remember, I planned this trip a year ago and the study opportunity just came in april...But I'm so excited for everything . It's like being @ Rock-n-Roller Coaster. Just as intense as that... I'm testing my Master Planner abilities for sure!!!
**Note to self: Don't move and travel at the same time !

My TA called me today! She is sending me the papers via mail!!!! No 2-hour trip!!!! Now the wait...Oh, the wait!!!!! I can't wait to have does papers and tickets, and luggage tags, and everything in my hands...

See ya soon!!!

 

[silverangel879]

Hello everyone!!!!

Oh, My sweet counter...

16 DAYS to go!

A little update, My TA called to tell me that she sent my package. I should me receiving it Monday or Tuesday. I can't wait! This weekend I'll be a little of the boards, since I'm having a weekend with some friends. We are planning to visit the Museo de Arte de Puerto Rico (Puerto Rico Art Museum) and tomorrow night is "La Noche de San Juan" (St. John Night). It's a traditional night in which everybody goes to the beach or pools and have a great Party or BBQ. When the clock marks the 12 (midnight) everybody has to enter the water backwards (to get rid of bad luck). I know it's kind of dumb but it a good excuse to take some friends, pack somethings and hit the besutiful Puerto Rican Beaches at night...

Enjoy your weekend everybody!!!!

See you later!

Are you still staying at the AKL?

 

[silverangel879]

Are you still staying at the AKL?

Yes, I haven't received any notification of any change. I have a pool view so I guess the construction should not bother. why?

 

[erin.w]

Yes, I haven't received any notification of any change. I have a pool view so I guess the construction should not bother. why?

I got the call last Thursday. We had pool view reserved as well. Were going the same days you are. Maybe you should call? I didn't know if they called and you decided not to move. We won't be able to look for your mickey faces at akl anymore.

 

[silverangel879]

Did they gave you the option to move? Or they just called you and tell you that you have to move?

 

[erin.w]

They suggested that we move. I said "well what if I decide not to" and she said then we will put that on your reservation and you will not move.

The biggest thing was getting there and then having to move (due to noise, etc.). And the $1,100 refund, and upgrade to SSR 1-bedroom villa. This trip will now be cheaper than our last years trip staying at POP.

We decided we will just stay at AKL next year, or the following year.

 

[silverangel879]

Oh okay...But they haven't called us yet. So I think I'll give them a couple of days and then call them! When did you do your ressies?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
OMG, I'm approaching to single DIGITS!!!!

13 DAYS to GO!!

More updates coming, Tickets and the searching for the perfect Tiara!

 

[mlill]

WoooHooo! Less than 2 weeks to go! It'll be here before you know it! I love your countdown calendar. Great job!
