Hello all!!!

well this will be my first PTR and im very excited!!! I'm where's_my_prince aka Jasmine i'm 18 and for this trip i will be going to disney with my younger sister! We have been around disney are whole lives living in southern california but we always make each trip like we live 3,000 miles away!

Here we are with our coordinating DL backpacks:

We are only going for one day so we are jam packing it with tons of fun. Buying and trading vinylmation, riding toy story mania non stop, goofys kitchen, and trick or treating!


We are playing to go on a day that has Mickey's Halloween Party so we can go that and do some trick or treating

The date we plan on going is October 15th which is a Friday
this is date we want to go because
1) its the day of Mickeys Halloween Party
2) Duffy the Disney Bear will be released the day before in DCA
3)Toy Story Mania will be back
4) Tangled Meet n greets will start that very day!

The days before the trip i will post random disneyland photos to keep the excitement going so stay tuned!

i dont know if you've heard of this guy but man i'm so incredibly excited for him to be released!! he will be my disneyland companion and ill probably buy all the merchandise associated with him

hopefully this little outfit will be out in time for Halloween!

it shocks me sometimes how amazingly corny i am

VINYLMATION
me and my sister LOVE LOVE LOVE vinylmation so we'll be buying plenty throughout the trip, I LOVE nightmare before Xmas so I'll def be picking up a few of these up!

Your PTR has gotten me in a premature super Halloweeny mood! Love it! I'll do my best to stay away from Duffy- that's just the thing that I would immediately become terribly obsessed with! And also, so excited that the Halloween party will be in DL this year!

Making Plans
all of my planning goes into this amazing planner that DL use to sell that i bought about 4 years ago. its the cutest thing! its called "my disney dream book"

its a little binder that has tabs for all sorts of thing like reservations, shopping, attractions, shows, restaurants and the paper is super cute!

they even have a spot for photos and character signatures, and slots for tickets, a slot for your pressed pennies, and a felt page to put your trading pins!


anyways
we only have one reservation for this trip and its for Breakfast at Goofy's Kitchen!!! yummm gotta love mickey waffles

I was originally planning to eat Lunch at Hungry Bear but now since all the festive treats are out i'm considering making reservations for Cafe Orleans, or just go to Plaza Inn and skip the gingerbread beignets

 

[PrincessMaleficent]

We are doing goofy's as well. I am so excited. I like your book. I have my own way of planning. I have a lot of spreadsheets and what have you. I can not wait for you to get back so I can see more pics.

 

[where's_my_prince]

hey guys just got back from my job interview and it went very very very well!!!
Based on my personality they are putting me in the spot as a restaurant hostess which is exactly the job i wanted, now though all the positions are open so i have to wait til around mid October for them to call me so i can start working! so excited though because that means as soon as the spots available i'm going to be a Disneyland cast member!!

My job interviewer said the interview is 75% based on your personality and i passed with flying colors so i was excited to hear i had the disney mind set


so i have that to look forward to after this trip!!
it pained me though to be so close to Disneyland today and not being able to go
but ill be there in a few weeks!

 

[PrincessMaleficent]

That is great news. Hopefully you will be there when I go. Congrats on the interview and job!

I'm kind of really jealous you're going at Halloween time. What can I say, I want to go to the Halloween party now that it's at Disneyland! I can't wait to hear all about that!

Congratulations on the job! That's great.

[SIZE="6[COLOR="hotpink"][/COLOR]"]Souvenirs from last 2 trips[/SIZE]

when i went to DL at the end of July i kept purchases at a minimum which i was proud of

STORY: everytime im in line for toy story mania i always see guys walking around with 2 or 3 dumbo stuffed animals, and the dumbo's are SOOOOO cute , i found out they were winning them from the midway games they have right by toy story mania! so i decided to try my luck . i lost the second time but won the next!!! so it cost me 5 dollars total this totally cute Dumbo that i was so proud of winning!

and the other souvenir was an AP World of Color shirt which i wear all the time now

and when i went to DL for the half marathon last month and got lotso!

as you can tell i LOVE plushies
