If you follow me on any form of social media, I would first like to thank you for putting up with my constant posting and ranting. Second, you would know I went to Disneyland for two days! I have a season pass so this may not be surprising but I usually go with my best friend who also has a pass, but this time I went with my mom! She got the two days- 1 park per day pass, which we assumed meant we had to go to both parks. FALSE. We could have done Disneyland both days. But that's besides the point. This trip just reassured me that I really don't like CA Adventure and I really love Disneyland.

We didn't get there until like noon which was fine because we slept in, drove down, got a hotel, and ate breakfast. Totally fine with me seeing as there are only like two rides in CA Adventure that I actually like. 

I don't like CA Adventure because it's super split up, there aren't any lands, and to be honest, it isn't magical. There is something about Disneyland that just makes me smile. (I will get more into this in my post about Disneyland) Whatever it is, CA Adventure doesn't have it.

I do love CarsLand though...

And I also love the Starbucks in CA Adventure, although Disneyland now has one too!

I am also a huge fan of the Toy Story Mania game, but only because I've gotten really good at it.

FACT: I always win at Astro Blasters at Disneyland.

I win!

Monday night we got dinner in downtown Disney and OMG it was delicious.

Disneyland itself has the greatest food for theme parks/just really good food in general, but I don't like any of the places I've tried at CA Adventure. Mind you, I haven't gone to Ariel's Grotto, so I can't say that I have tried everything.

FUN STORY TIME! (That you already know if you follow me on Twitter) While we were at dinner, a woman was making balloon animals. The table next to us had two kids. One boy and one girl. The boy got a sword, and I didn't hear what the girl asked for. She started making it upside down and I thought it was a palm tree. Next thing I know the palm tree has red hair and was Ariel from The Little Mermaid. MIND BLOWN. I want to learn how to make balloon animals. Let me know if you know someone who can teach me.

After dinner, we headed back to the park for World of Color, but decided to go back to CarsLand... again. Because it is one of the few fun things in CA Adventure.

And then we saw World of Color.

And it was magical.

And we ate churros.

Moral of the story is: CA Adventure is not Disneyland. It's just another theme park. I'm sorry. Yes, it is ranked above several other theme parks in my book, but if I don't have to go back to CA Adventure for awhile, I'll be happy. It isn't magical, it has a weird vibe, and I just don't know how I feel about it. I also don't like wearing my ears there. So that's saying something

(Mickey Mouse ears... that is)

Stay tuned for my post about the magical land of Disney!

"So LA"

Hello and happy spring break! Officially. ALSO, some super exciting news, I got accepted (offered?) to the Her Campus site meaning Her Campus will be starting a chapter at my school! YAY! I will probably do a post all about that, but let's talk about my kick off to spring break this weekend, shall we?
Alright, so here is my warning- this post is kind of, sort of, very Los Angels-y. Meaning, I went to an award show and got all fancy, and walked on a red carpet, and hung out with fabulous people. But don't worry, this wasn't the Oscars. One day, it will be... one day.

My flight got in Friday night after having the girl next to me stare at me the entire time, and having to deal with the weird, annoying, guys on the other side of me. It's fine I listened to my podcasts and Beyonce and it was fine. I came home to an unexpected text from Mr. Snapchat which was interesting to say the least. But this post isn't about him. At all.

Saturday morning, my mom and I woke up to go to brunch and get our nails done. MAGICAL. I got the French Toast. Surprise, surprise, surprise. Also, there were some comments on my picture saying that I should start a brunch blog. How do we feel about this? I would just make a separate tag... Let me know, because I would actually love to do this!

Okay, so back to the fun stuff. I went to Starbucks and they messed up my drink, so they gave me my drink, in a trenta. A TRENTA. I finished it. Over like an hour and a half, but Oh My Goodness it was obscene. Like no drink should be that size.

After nails we went to the mall and ran some errands, and then came home to start getting ready. The doors opened at 4:30 and we got there around 5. Let's just say there was a red carpet and I was ALL for it. We got our pictures taken (now I need to go find who took them and where they will be posted) but we weren't interviewed. Guess we aren't that cool.... yet.

 Then we headed inside to two different types of bars: the open bar and the mashed potato bar. I thoroughly enjoyed both. Also, I had no service there so tweeting wasn't a thing and all of my texts went through even though I thought they didn't so that was kind of embarrassing.. But not as embarrassing as these bathroom pictures I took...

The award show itself was long but entertaining, and I had this guy (aka the world's largest glass of wine) to accompany me. 

As I was walking out of the show, there was a photographer who stopped me and asked if he could take my photo. I said yes... of course, because uhm, what? And so as I was walking out I looked back and had my photo taken like a real A-lister. I am actually cracking up right now. Welcome to LA.

Post award show included cookies, cream puffs, and coffee. I can deal. We then went to the after party because, Los Angeles and spring break. The party was at the top floor of a hotel and they had SUCH GOOD FOOD. They were lacking in the open bar department though. Oh well. These ladies were "sober" and she proceeded to tell me why I shouldn't go into entertainment PR. Okay, lady. My mom also showed her the picture I took of her taking a selfie prompting her drunk convo with us, but she kept calling me pretty, so OKAY.

TRUFFLE MAC N CHEESE NEED I SAY MORE? I had like three of these.

Also, tuna cracker things. YUM.

This morning we lost an hour and made up for it by sleeping in. We went to the Farmer's Market, Trader Joes, and Gelsons and then TARGET. My favorite things.

Tonight I went to dinner with my friend, Rachel and saw the most gorgeous sunset!

Also, on the way home, I finally found the Teen Vogue issue with Lea Michele on the cover, so I picked that up.

And now to pack and sleep for tomorrow aka DISNEYLANDDDD. I'm going for two days with my mom, so I won't be posting until Wednesday. And that post will probably be about Disneyland. And it's going to be magical. So prepare for your Twitter and Instagram feeds to be filled with Disney. YAY! 

Hope you all had a fantastic weekend!

My Spring Break Plans

T minus 6 hours until I am boarding my flight home and I could not be happier. It has been two months too long, and this past week of midterms and essays galore has taken a toll on on mind life. So here are some of my hopes to do over break because clearly I really like making lists of things to do because I like checking them off the list. It makes me feel productive. This is also why I write to do lists and also put them in my phone. I'm an oddball, it's okay, I know.

*UPDATE ON YESTERDAY'S POST: I got a response, but it was very anticlimactic and didn't go anywhere. About 6 texts were exchanged. Whomp whomp whomppp...

1. TACOS
2. Disneyland
3. Tan
4. Blog/YouTube catchup
5. Homework catchup meaning do homework that is due later on in the semester
6. Netflix (I get to watch two movies on Netflix for homework *smirking emoji*)
7. Watch Dallas Buyer's Club, 12 Years A Slave, and The Lego Movie

What else should I do over break?

Facebook vs. Text

The internal debate. I know we all do it. I probably just over think it more than the average girl person.
It is his or her birthday. You haven't talked in amount of day months, and possibly years. If it is years, I say lean more towards the Facebook post which will result in a like, and not a "so what have you been doing since I talked to you last in 8th grade?"
Let's do this.

1. I would post on Facebook, but I don't want to get caught up between 30 or 40 more notifications and then they never see it.

2. What if I just get a "like" and not even a comment back saying "thanks" does that mean they don't care anymore? Or what if they do comment and then we have this whole conversation for all of Facebook to see?

3. I haven't talked to them in awhile though, what if they changed their number?

4. And they might be getting a ton of texts too and not even bother responding to me!

5. But at least for their text messages I know they will check it, like they might not even check Facebook.

6. Okay, they'll probably check Facebook, this is 2014, but still.

7. Do I add a smiley face? Do I use an emoji?

8.  How many "y"s do I put at the end of "birthday"? How many exclamation points starts to seem desperate? 

9. Do I ask a question like "how is school going?" or assume it is going fine and say "hope school is going well!"

10. But then I have like 3 exclamation points in ten words. I can't seem to excited, it might come off as desperate.

In case you were wondering, I sent a text. Two exclamation points and a "Hope school is going well"
All that worry for nothing everything.

Wish List Wednesday

In lieu of current events, aka my bank account decreasing at a rapid speed as a result to my brunch obsession, I have decided to make a wish list. Not only of things, but of places, and food, well, just tacos. Also, I apologize for the randomness of posts this week. It's midterms week and I can't seem to wrap my head around more than listicles and random thoughts.

-Tacos. I've been craving them for like two weeks now.
Side Note: When I am home in LA next week I really want to find some good tacos, so let me know if you have any recommendations!

-New York, it's always the answer.

-Vineyard Vines

-Puffer Vest

 -Nars Ita Brush and Sheer Glow Foundation

-New Phone

-New Clarisonic Brush Heads

-Contacts

-Kate Spade Book Clutch

-Southern Shirt Company Shirt (seeing as my Theta one got weird in the wash, ugh)

-White converse, but can I get ones that will like, never get dirty? I don't think I can handle the stress of white converse.

If you've read this far, cross your fingers and toes because maybe next week I will have an update on my love life. WHAT? I know.
