I did a guest post! :D I'd love for you all to read and comment! ;)
I did the post at my good friend Endor's blog. :D Love you Endor....you let me get away with waiting forever to do this post. XD
Guess what I pre-ordered and got a day before it was even released in stores?????
:D Choices of One is a GREAT book! I'm only on Chapter 4 and I already LOVE LOVE LOVE it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D I'm glad it's worth it, I mean....it's my allowance for the next two months. XD That book was $30. :P
Another reason to celebrate......
Guess where I'm going to be in exactly one week???
:D :D :D I'm so excited. SO SO SO excited. XD I do believe that I will be doing a post every day until I go to Disney World, because I will have NO WI-FI the entire time I'm on vacation. I WILL be able to check my emails from my phone, so if you need me, try there. ;)
I have more reasons to celebrate. xD
I've gotten 35 reviews so far on my fanfic, Reaching for the Stars. :D I'm so excited about that too!!!!!! Reviews are like comments, they make me SMILE. :D Inksaber, or StarWarsArtist from The Lakehouse Forums always leaves funny/long(ish) comments, and I love the way she writes reviews. :) Ley also writes nice reviews. xD *hugs reviewers* Reaching for the Stars << That's chapter 1. If you care to read it. ;) I've written the ENTIRE thing, but I've only gotten about 16 chapters up. I'm updating every day.
CeLeBrAtE rEaSoN nUmBeR fOuR:
This is my song. :) I love it.
Now, until next time, God Bless, May the Force be with you, and have a Disney Day!!!!!
Don't you laugh. This is going to be a very good post. (hopefully.....)
You see, I love mangoes. They are my favorite fruit. (next to the pineapple). Mangoes are interesting though, because they are.....well......abundant in our house around this time of the year.
My family has a very large and fruit-filled mango tree in our backyard. It produces HUNDREDS of mangoes each summer. This summer, it seems our crop has been extra plentiful.
See:
That table is FILLED, COVERED, with Mangoes. And that is just SOME of our crop. :P
Here is our tree:
Now, you must understand, I am so SICK of mangoes. A few weeks ago, I went on vacation with my family for like, a week and a half. xD We ate mangoes with EVERY SINGLE MEAL. Literally.
We had.....
Mangoes in our ice cream.
Mangoes in our cereal.
Mango smoothies
Mango slushies.
Mango rice
Mango chicken
Mango cookies (mangoes on our cookies)
Mango sandwiches (mangoes with our sandwiches/on them)
Mangoes with our pizza
Mangoes with EVERY SINGLE MEAL.
By the time our trip was nearly done, my grandma was at the point where she could give us a mango on our plate for our next meal and we'd be good. :P
Anyway, here are some Mango pictures for you.
All our crop. Plus more, since we're giving them away/trying to get rid of them left and right. XD
Oh, and my Daddy up in our tree, trying to get the Mangoes down.....
Ahh....and that was just yesterday. XDDD We've got more......and I am not ready for them. :P
Enough on my Mango post. I shall write a continuation of my Disney post (possibly) later. ;) I will also do a Star Wars post soon, I promise. :)
Disney. That word alone creates excitement in me. xD
Ever been to Disney World (or Land)?
Ever seen a Disney movie?
Ever watched a Disney Channel show?
Ever sung a Disney song?
I'm sure you have. For me, Disney isn't just a....theme park, or a movie company. Disney is my LIFE. I love Disney, Disney World, Disney Merchandise, Disney Movies, Disney Songs, almost as much as I love Star Wars.
*gasp*
Is that even possible??
Yes, yes it is. (see, Disney quote right there.)
I have Disney memorabilia all over my bedroom. Stickers, posters, napkins, toys, pins, books, pictures, ornaments, figurines, etc. etc. etc.
I have this picture (in it's original form) ung in my bedroom, all framed and pretty-like.
I wanted to do a post, on all the Disney things that I have (or most/some of them) and how Disney, both Walt Disney and the 'World of Disney' have impacted my life.
Being a Florida native, I have been to Disney World Resort over 1,000 times at least. I know the parks Epcot, Magic Kingdom and Hollywood Studios like the back of my hand. I am probably the only teenager I know who can navigate Epcot all by themselves without getting lost or asking for directions. (for those who don't know, Epcot is WDW's largest theme park, not counting Animal Kingdom's savannas.). The only place I haven't been is the Water Parks, because whenever we go, it's either too hot, too crowded, or off season. :P
I've visited (if not stayed) at all the hotels, and eaten at most restaurants. I know trivia not many others would know, and I do my best to learn more.
Even when I was young, I loved Disney. My first trip to Disney World was when I was 7 months old. I've not stopped going, nor have gotten bored with it yet!
When I was in third grade (i think) I did a report on Walt Disney. I LOVED doing that report. Walt Disney is such an interesting person!!!! He created Disneyland as a place where he and his little girls could go to have fun on Daddy-Daughter days.
His Animation was his pride and joy. Walt would draw on the side of the family barn when he was a young child, and when he was old enough, he became a full time animator.
Disney Animation Studios is still going strong, with Tangled being their 50th Film. :)
Then you have Pixar Animation Studios, which has CHANGED the way we look at Animated films!!!
Cars, The Incredibles, Finding Nemo, Up, Wall-E, Toy Story, etc. These films are to die for. They are heartfelt, sweet, and just all around great movies.
Now, Mickey Mouse has been a dear friend to me and my family since I was an infant. My mom grew up loving Disney. When she was old enough, she worked there on a College Internship Program (which I can't wait to do someday.).
She worked at 'Mickey's Pantry' in Downtown Disney. She sold pastries. ;)
My family frequents Disney World Resort at least twice a year. Sometimes once depending on times and money. ;P
Our latest trip is coming up in exactly two weeks from yesterday. So....in 13 days, I will be writing y'all from Disney World.
I am going to go ahead and give you a list of my Disney Favorites, because I am SOOO in the mood for Disney things!!!!!! :)
Favorite Character: Tinkerbell. Tinkerbell has been my favorite character for as long as I can remember. ;) She's so pretty and just a fun fairy character! I'm wearing a Tinkerbell shirt now! Haha!! Close in second is Lewis or Wilbur from Meet the Robinsons, Rapunzel from Tangled, Ariel from the Little Mermaid and Chip and Dale. :)
Favorite Movie: Very hard question. I have a list. Right now, at the top, is: Meet the Robinsons Tangled Aladdin Johnny Tremain The Parent Trap (remake, since I haven't seen the original) Tinkerbell (the movie) Peter Pan Mary Poppins Cinderella Pirates of the Caribbean (the first two) Cars (1 and 2) Finding Nemo Fun and Fancy Free (haha....<3) Fantasia (better than you'd think.) Lilo and Stitch High School Musical The Little Mermaid.
This list is very long. It would be safe to say that just about every Disney movie is a favorite of mine. With the exception of The Nightmare Before Christmas and several Disney Channel movies. :P
Favorite Song: Just as hard to answer as movies. :P Listing time.... Correction. If it's on the Music of Disney a Legacy in Song albums, then it's my favorite.
There are three CD's.
My personal favorite is Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah, The Electrical Parade song, and Golden Dream from Epcot's American Adventure. :) I love a billion more too. Like from the animated films....Princess and the Frog has some awesome music, Meet the Robinsons has some of my favorite songs on their album, Tangled has the best songs ever, and there are even more I love. ;) Brother Bear! I love that one too! And Piglet's Big Movie! XD I could go on and on.....:P
Favorite Disney Short (cartoon): I love anything with Chip and Dale, especially the ones where they drive Donald Duck out of his mind. I love the Clock Tower short, the Mickey and the Seal short, Donald Daddy Duck, Donald Applecore, Lambert the Sheepish Lion, and a TON more. ;) They have this station at most Disney World hotels that plays a loop of a bunch of old-timey cartoons. It's great!!!!
Favorite Pixar Movie: So hard. Cars. Cars one and two. They both are amazing. ;) I also love Finding Nemo. :) Toy Story (especially the third one) makes me cry. xD But they're great too.
Favorite Live Action Movie: Johnny Tremain. It's as simple as that. Nothing can compare......XD
Favorite Disney Channel Show (or Toon Disney): Phineas and Ferb. I love that show. It's the only really good thing left on TV anymore....besides Clone Wars that is..... I loved a ton of the old shows, that are now cancelled of course....like Kim Possible, That's So Raven, Phil of the Future, Winnie the Pooh (don't you dare laugh), and Lilo and Stich. ;)
Favorite (if any) Disney Channel Original Movie: Actually, some of the older movies are good. I loved the Zenon movies (starting my love of sci-fi when I was little apparently), and I also really love High School Musical, Den Mother (a very cute movie actually. I loved it.), Lemonade Mouth, and a few others too. ;)
Favorite Disney Princess: Jasmine, Tiana, Rapunzel, Ariel, Sleeping Beauty, and Cinderella. :3
Favorite 'Original Gang' (Mickey and Friends) Character: Mickey naturally. Closely followed by Donald and Minnie. ;)
Favorite Park (in WDW): Epcot. But I really love Magic Kingdom too. Epcot has always been my personal favorite. It combines the future and the past, and cultures and just everything. I love it so much. :) Plus, the 'Big Golf Ball' is epic. xD
Favorite Hotel (WDW): Oooh I know this one! xD Port Orleans Riverside Resort. It's my favorite one. :)
I love a bunch of others, but I really like this one best. ;) Saratoga Springs, Coronado Springs and Fort Wilderness (cabins and resort) also come in as favorites. ;)
Favorite Restaurant (WDW): Oh oh oh!!! Oooohhhhh!!!!! I know this! xDD I love the Liberty Tree Tavern in Magic Kingdom, Pecos Bill's in Magic Kingdom, and a few other places around the 'world'. Especially T-Rex in Downtown Disney, and the Sci-Fi Drive in theatre in Hollywood Studios!
Favorite Ride/Attraction (WDW): So hard. xD Star Tours is (of course) my favorite, but I love just about all the others, with the exclusion of Space Mountain, Mission Space, the Haunted Mansion, Tower of Terror, Rockin' Roller coaster and Mount Everest. :P I haven't been on the majority of those on that list. Except The Haunted Mansion. I just REALLY hate that ride. xDD
Favorite Collectible (that i own): I love my Vinylmations. I have five. Two of the five are Chasers (special collectible ones), and one of the two is a Star Wars one. ;) I also love my pins. And I love this Mickey figurine that my momma gave me. She got it when working in the Disney Store, and I love it. It has sorcerer Mickey standing on a pretty looking quartz rock, waving his wand. ;) <33
Favorite Memory: Well, since I have two memory slots, I'll just give one for now. xD My favorite Disney memory is of our 'girls trip' where my mom took me, my sister and my cousin to Disney for a weekend, just the four of us. We didn't rush to go anywhere, or do anything, we just relaxed and had a blast. We spent one day at Magic Kingdom, and went to lunch at the nearby Contemporary resort. ;) My cousin, sister and I went to the arcade, and I won 1000 tickets!!! We stayed at the hotel pictured above, (we call it Dixie Landings, since that's it's old name) and my mom let me and my cousin go downstairs and shopping by ourselves for the first time ever. We brought back lunch and got to trade pins with the cast members downstairs. ;) By the end of our trip, the ladies who worked in the gift shop knew us by name and gave us hugs before we went home. xDD
Another Favorite Memory (because I have oh-so-many): Another one of my favorite memories is when my mom and dad surprised me and my sister and cousin with a trip to Disney for their fifteenth wedding anniversary. ;) We got picked up early from school that day (we went to the same school then) and the minute we got to the car my cousin and I looked at each other and we said, "WE'RE GOING TO DISNEY!!!!" we just knew. XDD It was an awesome trip though. We got our famed 'Adventure Packs' that trip, Tinkerbell backpacks that we have used ever since, and I even made a scrapbook of that trip. ;) In fact, I still have that scrap book. We stayed at Animal Kingdom Lodge, went to Animal Kingdom, and the three kids were 'Adventurers' that trip, and we slept on the floor by the window so we could use our binoculars to look at the animals outside. :) It was a great trip. :)
And..........
Suggestion to Disney (if you could give them an idea, what would it be??): I would suggest for the Disney people to stop playing STUPID things like 'My Babysitter's A Vampire' on Disney Channel and start playing the original short cartoons and episodes. Also to stop telling people what to do, how to think, and to 'go green' and get back to the imagination concept of Disney. (sorry if i offended anyone with that suggestion(s). xD I'm strongly opinionated.)
I decided to go ahead and make this a tag! I know I've got friends/followers who are/have been/go to Disney World, or Disneyland. If you frequent Disneyland, go ahead and change the "WDW" parts to Disneyland and have fun!!!!!
I tag.....EVERYONE!!!! All my followers! I especially want to see Cad Bane's Chick's answers, Leia's, Endor's and Queen~Karina's. ;) Only because I know they all like Disney. Even if you haven't been to Disney World or Land, you can still answer them!!!!! :D
Thanks everyone for reading! Here is my collection:
Those are some of my collectible Star Wars Vinylmation Pins!
There ya go! That's the majority of my Disney Stuff, all in one little space. I've got tons more, but they're either in boxes, hiding, or on higher shelves. ;P LOL!
Thank you everyone! God Bless, May the Force be with you, and Have A Disney Day!!!!
Well, as most of my Internet friends know, I've been on vacation the past few days. :)

Cons: It had some language......and my sister was in the room for parts of that.......xDDD And a lot of blood. :P
Favorite Song:
(ooh, shocker) But seriously, I love that song. When I run around the house singing: "DUH DUH DUH DAAAAA DUN DUN DUNNNNNN!!!!!! DUH DUH DUH DAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!! DUN DA DA DA DUNN!!!!!" It's borderline obsession. XD When I go to Disney World in a few weeks, I'm buying a Indiana Jones Hat. I swear.

Pros: It was downright hilarious. You can't go wrong with Yogi Bear. XD That movie was so beyond funny. :P And I loved the bit of romance between Rachel and Ranger Smith. XD And how Politicians always ruin everything. XDD
Cons: It was pretty 'lame' if you can call it that, and the humor was the 'stupid funny' type. But it was SUPER funny. Not many cons. :P
Favorite song: Okay, since I couldn't find any 'songs' for the movie, I'll give a few quotes. ;)
Booboo: Go back in Mr. Turtle!
.
Yogi: But we've got a big finish! And I jump over Booboo at the end!
Booboo: No you don't.

Toy Story 3:
I give it: 10/10 stars. This. Movie. Is. Incredible.

Cons: The ending made me sob. A lot. XD And there were some pretty intense scenes. AKA the incinerator. :P
Favorite song:
Who DOESN'T love this song??? xD

.
My cousin and I have spent most of the night crying. Stupid Disney movies........Never mind, I love them too much. ;)
Well folks, that's it for tonight! I'm off to watch another movie! ;)
But before we go....
Okay, so I haven't posted in a while. :P But I'm planning on fixing that REALLY soon!!!!!!!
First of all, Thank You to my 48 followers. I'm honored to see that 4 next to that 8 on my follower sign. :) You guys rock. ;)
Today's Beautiful People post is going to be about my Star Wars OC (actually, my Original Character AND my Role Play Character...you get a bonus). And I love this character so much. xD She's super fun, and my 'alter ego' in many situations. Here ya go......FALLON SUNSTAR!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D
What kind of music does she like?
Well, Fallon is a Jedi Padawan.....and I'm not sure what music or if they are even ALLOWED to have music on their datapads, but I would imagine that Fallon would like jazzy type songs, country songs and most of the clean and good songs on the Galactic Charts. :)
Does she like to go outside?
Yes!!!! Fallon loves the outdoors. She and her friends (the other Padawans) are always at the park, in the gardens, or playing with their pets outdoors.
Is she naturally curious?
Haha!!! This question is hilarious. Curious and Fallon are almost ALWAYS in the same sentence. xD Fallon and her friends are CONSTANTLY getting into trouble for their curiosity. They are always in other people's business.
Right Handed or Left Handed?
Right Handed.
Favorite Color?
Blue-green, blue, or purple.
Where is she from?
Dantooine! She's from Dantooine. ;)
Any enemies?
She's a Jedi. All Jedi have enemies. Aka, the Sith. BUT....Fallon's number one enemy isn't a Sith. It's......
.
.
.
MACE WINDU!!!!!!!!!!!!
DUN DUN DUNNNNNNNN.
What are her quirks?
Quirks.....she has many......
Fallon prides herself in knowing EVERYTHING about EVERYTHING.....well, at least she thinks she does. She's definitely smart. And she's strong in the Force. She gets into trouble a LOT, and is often in detention. Her Jedi Master is her older sister, causing some problems....mainly lack of respect. Fallon often talks before thinking, and she hates Mathematics. If she stares at a math problem for too long, her brain implodes. She also hangs around with a girl with a frying pan, a girl who is obsessed with laundry and a few girls with pet wolves. And she has a pet Emperor. Yes, you heard me, a pet Emperor. His name is Palpypie and he gets straight D-'s in obedience class. Here is what he looks like......
What kind of things get on her nerves?
Fallon literally has nerves of steel...it's probably from being a Jedi...but Mace Windu gets on her un-steeled nerves quite a bit. She doesn't like being told what to do....though she knows when to follow direction. Also, when someone messes with her friends, it gets on all her nerves. A lot. XD
Is she independent or does she need others to help her out?
Padawan Fallon is definitely an independent soul. She rather do what she wants than do what she's told, but she knows to be good. She is the kind of person who helps others out. (hence the Jedi part...) She and her friends are very independent, usually getting into all sorts of trouble without their Master's knowing. ;)
Well, that's all about Fallon!!!!!! Fallon is featured in my Trapped in the Star Wars Universe story (where she's me in disguise) and also in my Day in the Life of a Jedi story on The Lakehouse Forum. I role play Fallon in StarWarsLife on TLF as well. She's a character very dear to me, and I can't help but use her in my stories! :D
Thanks everyone for reading! Tons of Love!!
Fallon.....oops, I mean....
P.S. I'm thinking about changing my name to Fallon on Blogger, since that's what most of my friends call me now....and I'm also in the process of making a new blog design. ;)
