I don't know what else to say...sorry...lol *lost for words* For a girl who's always 'chatty-talkative', I'm at a loss for words right now. (honest) *lol* Oh god...what do I even write here... ????????
heeeellllllllp...tasuketteeeeee!!!!
erm...this is bad... -_- lol :P Now I'll have to 'find' something to write/post here...
Well, this Saturday, we're going to a child's birthday party. She's in the same class as my daughter. It will be at a park, which totally now doesn't sound good because where I live, over the weekend, there'll be a high heatwave running through San Diego. Yeah...can you picture having a birthday party, in a high weather-heatwave, with cake & 'ice cream, full of children and parents, at a public park?? O.O I'm looking forward to the party. Just not looking forward to the heatwave. ~_~
This happened to my daughter's party last year in August. We went through the same thing with hers (had it at a public park and it was a heatwave) and boy, did we MELT; no doubt. I think even our clothes were stuck on our bodies...it was THAT bad. lolol -_- This year, I learned my lesson and decided NOT to have it outside this time, but rather, have it indoors somewhere. Too bad our apartment is too small...no room for a large amount of people. But, I was thinking of having it at either a) San Diego Zoo or b) PlayTown (a child's playplace). At Playtown, it's easy because 1) it's right down the street from us, 2) it's fully air conditioned, and 3) you can rent the place for children's birthday parties, including bringing your own food and drinks. Whatever you want, they'll accommodate for you. And, the children get to play in the play area, indoors. It's so cool too because not only there's a crawl-type gym (ones you see at McDonald's or whatevers), but they also have one of those blowup jumps for kids. That's why I love this place; so kid-friendly. And I think it's fairly reasonably priced too.
So now, I'm at a loss as to 'where' to have it. (undecided) I'm debating still as to 'what to do' yet.
Then, we get the bomb of all things. She tells us she wants to have her bday party at Disneyland. Aya! -_- No monies. But, we told her we couldn't because it'll be too expensive, and we just took her in April with grandma/grandpa. She knows we'll probably go again next year...or very soon. My in-laws wanna take her again next year (they're already saving up money to go from now...lol). They had so much fun with us in April, that they want to go and take us again next year.
Wow! What news of a lifetime. Now to save up some spending money...ugggh~ How can I do this with all this T&T stuff happening. lol :P Well, T&T...sorry but, family comes first with me. If the time comes when we're ready to go to Disneyland and there'll be more T&T stuff comin' out then, I'll probably have to forgo buyin' them cuz, with me, it's the Disney trip first with my daughter. I certainly don't want to deny the trip from her, you know? The good part about it all, is it's practically 'free'. All we pay is the admission tickets (which his parents pay their son back anyway) and bring spending money; that's it. They pay everything else (i.e. hotel lodging, food, etc.). So, that's why I really want to save up spending money again to go next year. Shouldn't be too hard to do. ^_^
Oh gosh...that reminds me. I still have yet to post the Disneyland photos I said I was going to ne. *gomen* (bows) Sorry I still haven't done that yet. (been quite busy) In fact, I think I might have some of them with me. I brought along my digital camera to upld the pics. I just hope I know how to resize them all down since they're going to be HELLA HUGE. (pixel-wise...lol) I tried doing this before using MS Paint and it's not the same. -_- *thinking* I'm sure I can find something on the college comps here...hehe~ :P
Ok...*bingo*...found them all on the digital camera. *whew* ^_^ Resized them all down too with a different program on here. So now...here's some of my Disneyland photos from our trip in April. Enjoy~ (and tell me what you think)
**Hear yee, hear yee! Calling all Princesses of the Land...** (Day 1)
(finding a princess hat for my daughter. She wanted the more exp. one...the one that lit up with lights using a battery. Not the one I have on her head in this photo. lol)
(here's mah fairy 'lil princess and the hat she chose. Love how she wanted the Snow White dress for some reason. lol I tried getting her to buy a different one but, oh well...that's what she wanted. And it turned out to be cute too becuz we DID meet Snow White. She got her autograph and we had a professional photographer from the park take photos of her with Snow White, while they interacted w/one another. So cute. Snow White said to her: "Oh, it's my little sister!" kawaiiiii~)
(Disney Princess Fantasy Faire section of the park; new area. This is where everyone can get to meet/greet with the Princesses, including having their autograph signatures, as well as taking photos with them. They're only allowed 2 families at a time to interact with three, randomly picked Princesses per day. That's why we waited for about 45 min. in line (which seemed like hours! -_-) but, it was worth it. ^_~
(entrance sign to the place...lol I know, I'm weird taking pics of signs but, since one of my other hobbies is doing scrapbooking, I had to take a pic of it. When you're doing a layout page in scrapbooking, it helps when you've taken photos of signs for the title to your pages. lolol *so I'm lazy*)
(after waiting in line for about 45min., which seemed like forever, she finally met her first princess of the day, Mulan. I was so thrilled she met her because...well, hey. Mulan's asian ok? lol :P (sorry I'm biased here) But, I was hoping we'd get to meet her, and I finally did. Aawwww~ she was so pretty too in person...hehe...not to mention, she was so slim...~_~ *jealous* She was one princess that really interacted well with her, aside from Jasmine.)
(Here's Princess Jasmine, our second princess after Mulan. She was pretty too...hehe. She was one of the other main princesses that really interacted well with the girls. Hey, at least you can say they enjoy their jobs, right? lol :P)
(Squire guy & 'lil princess Snow White. Sorry I dun know what to call him since I didn't get his name. lol :P Gosh, it would be cute tho if he were Takki. HAHA...squire-Takki...okaaay. Still. Dressed like that, bending down to take a photo with my daughter, and if it was Takki, daaaang... I WANT in the photo too! lolol ^_~)
But see, she's always apprehensive when it comes to 'men'. I wonder, then, how she'd react if she'd meet/see Takki in person. I hope she won't want to 'hide' or be shy around him. lolol Well, I guess that's good in a way, because that just means she doesn't trust men much. :P
(there was a play going on while the families were meeting the princesses. Families got to interact with the princesses/prince's. It was a neat experience and it was all for the kids, really. ^_^ But, it seemed that even the adults enjoyed and had fun too...hehe~ 'like me'. They even taught the girls how to 'curtsy'. Aawww~ Btw, in this photo though, we had to pull strings, and eventually, there was candy that fell and everyone got to take some.)
What was funny was, during this time, after my hubby watched this play 3 times in a row while waiting for us (we met more princesses), there was this prince that came on stage. While everyone was dancing and stuff, he once said to the audience, "C'mon, men. How come the guys aren't dancing?" My hubby wanted to tell him, "Dance? Hell, I wanna sack this place already." bwuaahahaha...omg, my hubby's too funny. *covers mouth*
(Princesses on stage, dancing after the interaction with the ribbons. *photo above this one* How sweet~)
(Princesses Snow White & Aurora (or Sleeping Beauty); here's the lucky gals who got to meet 'randomly' after the show ended. Yeah, there was this photographer lady who walked around, randomly choosing girls who were dressed in costume. If you're one of the lucky ones chosen, you get to meet several more princesses in person inside another special room. I wanted to take that opportunity so, heck...why not. The lady got us mixed up with another family and thought we were with her party (her children). I said, it's ok and she was ok with it too. So, we had a designated time slot. I couldn't miss out on another picture of a lifetime.) ^_^
(meeting Snow White, her 'older' sister...hehe~)
And, for now...I shall end Day 1 of my Disneyland trip. ^_^ Hope you all enjoyed, for now. I want to do Day 2 on here but, I'm so tired. (plus, my cold...uggh) Have been chatting all day on the comps with my girls so...hehe~ I'm pretty much *pooped out*. lolol (esp. since...well...
nevermind...*sigh*melts* My 'dream-stories'...*melts*) Makes me wanna RAWWRRRR Takki right now...hehe. ^_~ (sorry, mybad) :P NOT...HAHA
*REIKO*
