MORE PICCIES WOO!

Even more piccies of the trip! In my own defense, if you are sick of them, I took WAY less than Courtney.

The hotel we just stayed in overnight in... Georgia? Kentucky? Don't remember. Definitely not four stars, but it worked for just one night.

Look! It's Goofy! Omigod, he's coming this way! He's going to run me over! Move- augh!

Erin's idol. Stitch is rather large in real life, huh? From the movies, you would think he was such a little thing! Amazing what filming does to a person's height...

:3 I think this is my favorite group piccy I took. James is falling over! It's great.

Guess what these stained glass windows are based off of? Go ahead, guess. You'll never get it.

In Epcot, they have the World Showcase, right? Where you get to go to a bunch of different countries! I tried to get a bunch of piccies of Japan, but by then it was dark, and few turned out. The second one was from a middle eastern country... can't remember if it was India or not. *shrugs* Pretty mosaics!

OMG THE MASKS. In Italy, they had a mask shop! If there is one thing I wish I could have gotten on this trip, it is one of those AMAZING masks. Of course, they were ridiculously expensive. BUT SO PRETTY. I was very impressed! They're all handmade!!

I would like to entitle the next set of pictures "THE BEST DAY OF ERIN'S LIFE." You guys think I fan girl over Tinkerbell? I think Erin would have killed someone to get a picture with Spiderman, if she had to. Fortunately, she only had to wait in a line.

The handsome fellow there is Wolverine. I know, he looked less like a dork in the movies, right? Well, that didn't stop Erin and James. Ah, spandex.

Those two lovely ladies in costume are Rogue and Storm, if you, once again, couldn't tell. Amazing!!

Remember Erin's plastic arsenal? Maybe not. But in one of the Marvel gift shops Erin bought a pair of plastic Wolverine claws, which we PROBABLY shouldn't have allowed her to do. But since when were we smart? Erin and James were barred from the Shrek area of Universal Studios by one of the wandering village girls. She looked absolutely petrified by their fighting.

:D You'll think this is funny, but after these pictures we had a few more days of parks to do! But my camera was out of memory, so I didn't take too many more. Oh well! You guys understand, right?

I actually did take a picture of the Disney's Magical Kingdom light parade. It took place at about midnight on our last day there. :D What were we doing at Magical Kingdom, you ask? Riding the Dumbo Ride. Amazing. And Space Mountain! MORE amazing. Courtney wasn't happy about it, but it was perfectly safe and dark and fast and fun! :3 I was very happy with it.

That's about all I need to say... I think...

Ivy, out.

More on the trip~

Installment two involves more piccies. Woo!

Oh, the shrubbery! Be impressed. I was. Amazingly so.

In case you can't see it, Stitch is sitting in the life guard chair up there, looking adorable. Over the trip, everyone learned that Erin is totally in love with Stitch. She bought a plushie of him, and he became her firstborn. It was an funny joke, that was surprisingly long-lived. I don't think it's died yet.

At MGM. The Holleywood division of Disney World- for those of you who aren't nerds, that giant robot would be from Star Wars. VERY big. VERY impressive.

And it's totally about to crush James. Too bad!!

((Fun fact: James totally beat me up over the trip. I was bleeding. From my HEAD. Someone stole his hat (MIGHT have been me. I don't remember), and I got caught with it. So he whacked me over the head with it (wouldn't you have?), and it turns out my head is just super sensitive to being hit. I had a bump about the size of a quarter, but the excessive amounts of blood running down my face came from a prick the size of a needle point. I thought it was more funny than anything- didn't feel a thing. James felt bad, and everyone else freaked. *shrugs*))

They had a Beauty and the Beast Musical! I ADORED it. And sang along to all the songs. The actually managed to get most of the plotline and all of the songs into about thirty-three minutes. And I took about one picture a minute, by those reconnings. If you want to see them all, contact me, but for now, you can just see the finale~

Animal Kingdom! Disney World's zoo.

Tree of Life. VERY HUGE. VERY COOL. This is about as close to it as you can get. Which was disappointing.

Lions, tigers, and... flamingos? Oh my.

The lion and tiger were rare sightings, apparently- actually, only the lion was. Supposedly, they are rarely seen on the safari, because they sleep most of the day. It was cool. With the tiger, you could see about five of them at any given time, but we're the only people I know that the tiger deemed cool enough to come and inspect through a window. :D We were taking piccies like crazy. Court, Ashey, and Erin got some really good ones, too.

I haven't posted half the pictures that I want to- but I feel this blog is already too long. And, as blogger isn't really equipped to post a lot of pictures in one post, I'm getting annoyed with it. I'll post the rest of them later, I promise!

Ivy, out.

BACK FROM OBSENELY LONG TRIP

Okay. *deep breath* I am NOT writing about the whole trip here. But I have some piccies that will help sum up.

The bus ride on the first (second?) day got a little loopy. They earned those rabbit ears!

I love the scenery in Disney- everywhere. Theme parks pay so much attention to detail. Oh, the shrubbery!

I'll post more tomorrow. Blogger hates me, and doesn't want to upload more piccies. Not to mention, I am dog tired.

The trip home was a bit frustrating... Bus 1 (we were on Bus 2) had trouble. So we had to stop to get it fixed. They ended up dropping us at a mall in VALDOSTA (yes, you must say the name with an accent), Georgia. THe mall was relatively small (one bathroom in the whole place small), but it had a book store, which had FURUBA! So I was content. We were all going a little stir crazy, though. I think in the end we were pushed back, what? Five hours? Eight? Something like that.

More rant to come later. Unpacking!!

DEAR BEENISH,

because the rest of the people who read my blog will be in other parts of the country, and thus don't matter.

The thing is, I thought, "Wow! I'm gonna be gone all break." That means all the comics I WOULD be doing then, wouldn't get done. So I did the unthinkable for my small readership.

In the past six days, I did five comics.

I KNOW. It's amazing. Not only that!! But they are not part of the current plotline! It is RE-INTRODUCTIONS. Because the first chapter I ever did sucked, so now I can have new people reading my comic with the NEW introduction, and I won't be embarrassed by my poor drawing skills of yesteryear. It's amusing, I think. YOu must comment!!

Also, YOU, BEENISH, must TRY to relax during break. T.T This is my offering for you. So PLEASE, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, at LEAST sleep in for me.

So...

Appreciate my improved drawing skills! I drew us in our old costumes, so you can ALSO appreciate how much of a better character designer I am nowadays as opposed to way back when. Drawing everyone with the old hair cuts was weird as well. :D

Lightning outside! Yay!!

Um... I think that is all... Going on a trip tomorrow morning! w00t!!

Ivy, out.



((Psst... I'll have another suprise for everyone not going on the trip come school in a week and a half... izza surprise...))

Okay....

... I KNOW what you are thinking. But I can explain!

It was the homework. It kept me from drawing. It isn't my fault!! I promise!!

Anyway, I had less homework tonight. Amazing! So I doodled. I know, I know, I should draw a comic. T.T Unfortunately, those take hours, so I doodled with a pretty new lavender pen I have, and then fiddled with the image on my computer! So, a doodle of a lavender elf. :D Be appreciative!

I WILL try to do another comic soon. I swear. Once I decide what I want to do next. ((I wasn't joking before- I really HAD been building up to the last comic for... ages, and didn't really consider where I wanted to go afterwards. :D I know, I'm amazing.))

Trip to Florida in a week!! So excited, in a I-would-really-rather-skip-the-two-full-days-of-riding-in-a-bus way!!!

Umm... that's all!!

Ivy, out.
