DISNEYLAND, Here I Come!!!

sleaapingbeautycastle


I LOVE LOVE LOVE Disney, and everything that comes with it!

Tomorrow morning at 2 am, I will be making the trek down to Anaheim!

I'm so excited!

Last year I went to Disneyland for my birthday with my three best girlfriends. I tend to get a little over excited on my birthdays (I just want them to be perfect), and they were a little afraid of the emergence of "birthdayzilla!"

They were wrong, Disneyland is my happy place. A place where a kid can be a kid and an adult can also be a kid.

It's a place where I can eat warm yummy churros and cool pineapple whips! (I'm mostly excited for the churros)

I am also very excited because I will be starting my 365 photo project on Tuesday, June 1...

side note: I had to re-buy my digital camera, because it was in my stolen purse. I have also already received my replacement credit and debit cards as well as my drivers license. The silver lining of my stolen purse is that I had to retake my drivers license picture, something I was oh so happy to do.

I will be in Ventura on Tuesday at Magic Mountain, those roller coasters are wild!

I CANNOT WAIT!!!

Mickey Mouse and co, get ready cause here I come!!

PS: sorry about all the exclamation points! I'm just so excited!!

What possess people to take things that don't belong to them!!!

I am so upset!

Last night I was out with my girlfriends in the city. We had an awesome dinner at a small Mexican restaurant called "The Velvet Cantina." I had the shrimp enchiladas and there were only men that worked there, and they were some good-looking men! (YUM!)

but I digress...

then we went to a bar (yes, on a Tuesday night) and were having a great time. This great time was ruined by someone. When we went to leave I could not find my black clutch,

CUE ME FLIPPING OUT!!!
(actually, apparently I was very calm about it)

We asked the bartenders to look out for it, but we literally looked everywhere! Even in the men's bathroom.

Basically, it was stolen. Inside of it was my digital camera, my wallet with some cash, my driver's liscense, and my debit and credit cards. I also had some MAC makeup and MOST IMPORTANTLY...

THE KEYS TO MY HOUSE AND MY CAR!!!!!!

Luckily, my cell phone was in my pocket, because if I had lost my iPhone, I would be a mess right now. I'm so attached to it!

It really annoys me that I even had my keys because I live with one of my friends and I usually leave my keys at home when we go out, cause there really is no reason for us both to have keys to the house.

I also lost my new birthday presents for myself, a coach wallet and keychain. :(

I'm really sad, but I am hoping that my purse shows up at the bar, but I doubt it :( :( I called to cancel my credit and debit cards and there were no charges on either of them so maybe! I also called the bar and left a message on their voicemail. I will call again after they open.

All I want is my stuff back! Otherwise I will not have a camera for my trip down to Disneyland and LA in a few weeks... and I DO NOT want to make a trip down to the DMV for a new liscense (unless they let me take a new picture!)

to Kindle or not to Kindle....

I have been wanting a Kindle for the past few months, probably since before Christmas. It was just my birthday and I got a little money so I'm am now wondering if I should sink that money in the a Kindle.

Photobucket

I actually read a lot and am constantly purchasing books from Amazon. I'm a sucker for the recommendations page, of course they know what I love, they track what I buy! Anyway, I'm getting to the point that I just don't have enough space to keep all the books I read. So I'm toying with the idea of going for it, but I am having difficulties.

I want to actually hold and play with it before I spend $250 plus about $40 for a case, on my new toy. I also want to make sure that I will actually use it. I wish Amazon would put it in a store like best buy or something so I can actually see and touch it.

Recently I have seen a few around and have asked those random strangers how they like it. One loved it while another said she got it for a gift and probably would not have bought it for herself. It has amazing reviews on Amazon, but sometimes those can be pretty one-sided (anyone hear about the yelp controversy?)

So I'm sending it out to you... does anyone who is reading this actually have a Kindle? How do you like it, do you actually use it. Do you feel like you're actually saving money and space with the downloadable books? Do you know anyone with a Kindle? Do they like it?

hmmmmm.... decisions, decisions!

Miley dirty dancing?

I recently saw this video of Miley Cyrus dirty dancing on some guy. Apparently this video was taken when she was 16. I don't actually think it is a problem. Miley is almost an adult and I was 16 not to long ago and I was dancing the exact same way. Granted I was not in a club, but I was at school dances. I was still "dirty dancing," I may have even been dirty dancing before high school.

My mom teaches high school and she told me that when she chaperoned prom they used to have a "dirty dancing room" where students would basically be put on time out if they were caught dirty dancing. That is just ridiculous.

I understand that dancing may lead to other bad things, but for the most part dancing is harmless. I think that people overreact way too much, especially when it comes to our teen starlets. People grow up people, even young celebrity teens. Please let them grow up, because teenagers are going to grow up anyway.

I'm baaaaaaaaaack!

Hey, I don't actually think anyone reads my blog, but I'm baaaack!

I was feeling very boring and could not imagine finding stuff to blog about. I was also very busy with two job and graduate school. Today is my last day in retail and I will be back down to one job and school. Hopefully, this will create more time for me to do this! I am also hoping to use this blog to keep track of my 101 in 1001 and 365 photo project.

Hope anyone who reads this enjoys me blog! :)
