CrAzY!!!

Wow I don't even know where to begin. These last few days have been nothing but a whirlwind and my mind is still trying to catch up with it all! I guess I will start from the beginning, which would be about 4 am Saturday morning haha
   4 am Saturday Morning - January 29, 2011
So my alarm goes off at 4 in the morning, might I add I had only gotten 2 hours of sleep! I get ready, finish some last minute packing and then begin my goodbyes to my puppies :( Yes, I did cry saying goodbye to them! Haha they mean everything to me and it was so hard saying goodbye to them!!! 


So 5:30 rolls around and we have to be out the door, so out the door we go! Boy was I already exhausted but I couldn't believe I was actually on my way! This day that I had been counting down to for weeks was finally right at my fingertips and I honestly wished to have a few days more. Driving away with my mom, my brother and his girlfriend in front of us and my boyfriend and I following them in his truck we were on our way to my never never land :) but hold up, nothing goes that smoothly in my life! 15 minutes into our journey my brother pulls to the side of the road - uh oh, my mom left her license at home! So on their way back to the house they go and on our way to the airport me and my boyfriend go. We get to the airport, my family gets to the airport, we check my bags, we get in line for security and everywhere I look there was Disney stuff, its like it was taunting me! haha so all that good stuff happens and we board the plane. Smooth flight, nothing out of the ordinary. I had my iPod, boyfriend, disney coloring books, food and a book to read - I was set! 


Two hour flight, not too bad and before I knew it I was hoppin off the plane!!! "I hopped off the plane at LAX MCO with a dream and a cardigan. Welcome to the land of Fame excess Mickey Mouse, woah, am I gunna fit in?!" Yupp, thats my new creation of Party in the USA :) haha n-e-wayz so we landed, got off the plane and I was surrounded by Disney gift shops, sunshine, and palm trees - I loved it! We get our bags, get our rental car, yadda yadda yadda and we are on our way. First stop? Get our tickets for Disney World and Universal studios! Second stop? Cici's pizza where I so kindly got my CP discount! Third stop? Most amazing hotel ever - absolutely gorgeous! We get settled, do a little relaxing, take a walmart trip while my brother goes to Best Buy (or so we think) to get a wireless router and a bigger memory card for my camera and we all come back to the hotel to relax a little more.
SURPRISE!!! My sister flew down from Seattle to surprise us! I was in complete shocked and so excited that she was there! So we continue on with our exciting day with a short relaxation time, some dinner and then we head down to down town disney! While my brother, his girlfriend, my sister and mom went to go see Circue Due Solei, Alex and I went to Disney Quest - definitely a lot of fun! That was day 1 of my Orlando adventure and boy was I wiped!


Day 2 - DISNEY WORLD!

   My goodness was I excited for this day! I was finally getting to go to Magic Kingdom and I was just too excited I couldn't contain myself. We woke up, got ready, left the hotel and we were on our way. We got there, Parked in Pluto row 19, got on the tram, got on the metro and finally, we were there. First stop? dun dun dunnn, first aid station. Yupp, thats right! I got stepped on and was gushing blood everywhere!!! Not really, but it was pretty gross haha but finally, I was on my way to Cinderellas castle! I had the biggest grin on my face, I just couldn't believe I was actually there! We took a bunch of pictures, watched a show and then hit TomorrowLand! First ride was Space Mountain with a 10 minute wait! JACKPOT! Needless to say, there were no lines all day and it was amazing! So we hit up tomorrowland, met Stitch and Buzz, then moved on to main street where there was a parade going on! Score! Best part of the day - I got to dance in the parade and had the time of my life! Seriously, it was so much fun! Moving on, we went to a bunch of different places and I couldn't keep the grin off of my face. Throughout the day we met Mickey and Minnie Mouse, Stich, Buzz Lightyear, Cinderella, Aurora and Belle! We rode a bunch of rides and had the time of our lives! I would go into more detail but I don't want to bore you guys to death and make this any longer than it is going to be. Finally it was Wishes time! 
   Wishes was absolutely amazing and I had chills through the whole entire thing! I can't believe that I can see it as much as I want this semester! (that is, if I am not working!) Long day shortened to a really long paragraph, I had the best day ever in Disney World! 


Day 3 - the Wizarding World of Harry Potter!
Yesterday was a great day too, I finally got to go to Hogwarts!!! I had so much fun wandering around Hogsmeade and the rest of Islands of Adventure but to be truthfully honest I think I would have had so much more fun had I not have had to say goodbye to my boyfriend and brother and his girlfriend later that day. Yeah, thats right - I had a meltdown in Universal Studios saying goodbye to them! haha can you say AQWARDD! But anyways, I am not going to go into full detail but I will definitely be back because it really was fun. We even got my mom to ride a few rollercoasters which was a first since her surgery so that was quite exciting! Especially the Hulk ride she rode ;] haha so pretty good day on Monday, despite the goodbyes! 
Oh and we can't forget how my mom so kindly told me at the end of the day while we were getting dinner that I looked "incredibly exhausted, wiped out, sad, and had one eye that had a bigger bag under it than the other!" gee thanks mom! haha it was pretty funny actually lol


Day 4 - Downtown Disney and Grocery shopping
Well, my sister left early this morning leaving it to me and my mom now! She let me sleep in today which was so nice but once I woke up we were up and at 'em. I couldn't help but laugh at the fact that back home in Dallas it is 12 degrees and I was chillin in 75 degree weather today - amazingness <3 Our day consisted of doing some dry good grocery shopping, Denny's for lunch, going to the other side of DTD that we didn't go to (which might I add is so cool!) We went to find the BBB location down there located in a World of Disney and it was so cool! Everyone there seems so nice and it definitely seems like a great environment! My mom was so embarassing and made me go and take a picture inside - very embarassing haha but I will survive! We continued our stroll through DTD ending with some ice cream and another trip to the grocery store.



  We are currently cleaning up the hotel room and getting ready for check in tomorrow and check out from the hotel. Well, she is getting ready - I am updating this thing! haha 
On that note, I am going to go finish cleaning and hit the hay. Meeting Brooke tomorrow at 6 am for breakfast with our mommies before we head over to Vista way for the big day! Wish me luck, I am extremely nervous but extremely excited! I promise I will try to stay up on my updating but if this semester is anything like this weekend it is going to be pretty hard! haha


Hope everyone is doing well! :)
