The Agony

So I'm sitting here in the airport and I just watched my little brother board a plane for Florida. He's going to visit some family (not going to Disney, I checked!) and so I'm left here to my thoughts of what it would be like to hop a plane to Orlando and spend the week at Disney.

Then I remember that Prince Charming's bonus check comes in soon-ish and we were going to use that specifically for a Disney trip for just the two of us.

Then I got real excited and now IT'S AGONY TO WAIT. Ughhhh. I just want Disney. Guess its time to pop in the headphones and chill out to some park music.

Have a Magical Day!

My Top 7 Old Disney Channel Movies + Where to Watch Them


   Well, hello! 

   I was talking to a friend of mine and we were discussing about how Disney Channel used to have really great old shows. Remember Lizzie McGuire, That's So Raven, or Even Stevens? Gahh! Those were the days, right? 
   Well, do you remember the old movies they had? I do! Here are my list of favorites (#1 being the most favorite) and where you can find them to watch them! If I don't have your favorite on here, comment, and I'll see if I can find where you can watch it!


#7 Cadet Kelly (2002)


This was a movie starring Lizzie McGuire's Hillary Duff and Even Steven's Christy Carlson Romano! Airing in 2002, it's about Kelly (Hillary Duff, er, Lizzie) basically having to go to Military School since her mom married an Army captain. She butts heads with Cadet Captain Stone (Chirsty, or Ren Stevens) and finds out they have some things in common. At the end, everyone's happy-go-lucky and all is well. And, as promised, HERE! is where you can watch it.

#6 Zenon: Girl of the 21st Century (1999)


Starring Kirsten Storms (Maxie Jones in General Hospital) and Raven Symone (That's So Raven) its about a girl in the future who is punished to earth for crossing the Commander of an orbiting space station. When she finds there's a computer failure that's going to hurt the space station her friends and family is on, the Commander thinks it's just her imagination. Zoom, zoom, zoom! You make my heart go boom boom, you supernova girl (you know you just sang that instead of reading that!) HERE! is where you can watch it! 

#5 Smart House (1999)


With teenage hunk Ryan Mirriam (Pretty Little Liars' Ian Thomas) as Ben Cooper, his family wins a house that can take care of itself. PAT (the crazy mom-like person) begins to spiral out of control into this controlling and crazy computer thing and tries to take over their life. What starts as something great for the Cooper family, soon turns into a disaster. Jump, jump, the house is jumpin! Yeah, you know what song I'm talking about. HERE! is where you can catch it!

#4 Don't Look Under the Bed (1999)


Disney took an unexpected twist they released Don't Look Under the Bed, Scarring kids for life with this thriller, Frances McClausland, a normal (but way smart) teenager realizes some weird occurrences are happening in her small town of Middleberg. She calls in reinforcements, her brother's imaginary friend to help her fight off the Boogeyman who has been the culprit to everything happening in Middleberg. HERE! is where you can watch the horror unfold!

#3 Wish Upon a Star (1996)


Starring a young Katherine Heigl (Knocked Up) as Alexia Wheaton, she's everything her younger sister, Hayley, wishes she could be. Alexia is popular, pretty, and has a boyfriend. When Hayley wishes upon a star to be like her older sister, it comes true! They find out what it's like to walk in each other's shoes and settle their differences. HERE! is where you can watch it!

#2 Life Size (2000)


Featuring a pre-disappointing Lindsay Lohan as Casey Stuart, Casey steals a spell book to try and resurrect her mom, she accidentally makes her Eve doll (Tyra Banks...what?!) come alive instead. This makes for an adventure that makes you wish YOU had a life size doll to have fun with. Shine bright, shine far, don't be shy, be a STAARRR! Ahhh...bliss to my childlike ears. HERE! is where you can watch the magic unfold!

#1 Tower of Terror (1997)


Yeah, you know, the ride at Disney?! It's a freakin' movie! And it's my #1! Starring a young Kristen Dunst, it's about a reporter who investigates an old, run-down luxury hotel where five people mysteriously disappeared (sound familiar, Disney Addicts?). If you plan on going to Disney some time soon and haven't watched this movie before the ride, I encourage you to do so. It's AWESOME! HERE! is where you can watch it!

   

   Like I said above, if I missed one of your favorites, let me know and I'll see if I can find a link for you to watch them online! I love blasts from the past. Especially when it has anything to do with Disney!

Have a Magical Day!

5 Stages of Finding Out You're Going to Disney World



   Not many people really appreciate a good vacation. They kind of just plan it and "look forward to it." But as you know, it's not a vacation if you're not going to Disney World. And as Disney Addicts, we don't just "look forward to it," no, we OBSESS over it. Here are a few things that go through my mind when  someone has the audacity to tell me we're going to Disney. I hope you enjoy and feel the same way.

1. "I'm Gonna Pass Out"
No. Really. Did you say "we're going to Disney?" That's, like, the best effing place on earth, and my favoritest place on earth. Omg. This is happening. Are the walls closing in on me? Is it getting hot in here? I think I need to sit down. 

2. "I Need to Make Sure."
Are we? Really? When? Are you sure? Like, soon? Stop kidding. It's not funny. Wait, really? Like, REALLY really?

3."I Need to Obsess Real Quick."
Omg. Disney. Like. DISNEY. I can't. I'm gonna throw up with excitement. This is going to be the best trip EVER. Who even cares if I've been a gazllion times?!

4. "Denial."
No. This can't be. I can't truly be going again. This is too good to be true. Right? They're playing a sick joke, right? I'm not prepared for this much awesomeness. 

5. "I Accept."
I accept the fact that this trip is going to be awesome. I accept the fact that I can not over plan or be a control freak. And I also accept the fact that I'm going to drive everyone nuts. Oh. And sleep? I accept the fact that it's not going to happen pre-trip. 


Have a Magical Day!
