My Bucket List in Pictures

Okay so maybe this is a little sad, but with only 26 days to go, my excitement drove me to do this.
My Bucket list page can be seen at the top of this page in one of the tabs, but i just made 'My Bucket List in Pictures' woop. Obviously i don't know any of these people as they are all from the lovely town of googleimagia - but they served the purpose.

Anyways here it is! :)

Everything i plan to do - you can click on it to see it bigger =)


Have a Magical Day!

Embassy Appointment and London Meet-up.

Hellooooo,

it's been a while since my last post but not a lot of Disney stuff has happened lately until this week.
So on the 19th April i had my visa appointment at the US Embassy in London. i won't post a list of things you need as this has been pretty well covered by Suzie and various other bloggers. My appointment was at 11am and i was out of the embassy by 2:30, it was not too bad a wait and most of the people working there were pretty friendly and happy to help.

Also, don't be terrified about making mistakes on your application, yes - try to get it right but its not the end of the world if you make a small error. A friend of mine had his appointment on the same day - different job but the same kind of visa and he actually applied for the wrong type of visa entirely, put the wrong category and applied for B something instead of a J-1. They just told him to go to the internet cafe in Goulds Pharmacy (the place where you leave your bag) and change it and he came back half an hour later and continued with the appointment. So don't stress!

The next day was the Disney London Meet-up, it was a relatively small turnout but a really wonderful day! The weather was absolutely scorching, we sat in Regents park for a while and eventually went to Nando's for a really yummy lunch. Then frappe's in Starbucks and eventually a wander round Madame Tussauds (thank you to Julia who got us in for free!)





So thank you to everyone who came - it was so lovely to meet you and i'll be seeing you very soon in Florida!

Have a magical Day!

iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

Yeah... i suck.

So loading up the pics of the Food Challenge didn’t happen. So i’ll put them all up on one go in the next post. Sorry.. :/

i still have not booked my visa appointment yet as i am totally broke. But will hopefully be able to phone and book it early next week. Hope this will be alright. This is not going to be a long post as the keyboard on my laptop is currently broken and every time i want to type the letter ‘i’ i have to copy and paste it from somewhere else... not ideal. it’s a really long story which i won’t type now but maybe put in a vlog later. it may have to be vlogs for a while as the apple store said it would be £160 to fix :(. Not great as i have a 3000 word assignment due in a couple of days which has not been started... on Apple ironically lol.
Anyways there will be a vlog and several food pictures going up soon, once i have struggled through this assignment... urgh.

Have a magical day......?

It's Finally Here!!

Okay, so my new camera cable has arrived! And i can start uploading the food pictures today :)  So Day 1 of my one week Disney Food Challenge I had a mickey shaped bbq chicken pizza and it was yyyyyummy! 


You can get these basic pizzas in Tesco and I just fried up some chicken in bbq sauce and then smothered it in the stuff.
Something a little more exciting than pizza...
I GOT MY DISNEY PACK TODAY! :D
It was smooshed through the letter box by the post man this morning.
Unfortunately I had already given in and read the pdf version of the pack a few weeks ago so it was not much of a surprise but its still great to have it and make it feel that much closer.  Here are some pics for those of you that haven’t got yours yet:





So now just have to book my visa appointment, you are meant to do it immediately but I am totally broke right now so will have to wait till i get paid on Thursday :/ .
Also, looking forward to the Manchester meet next weekend, can’t wait to meet you all!  Thanks to Sarah Ward for organizing it all.  
Also, I saw a feature on Bethan John’s blog which I think is a fantastic idea and that is her ICP Bucket List, so I have decided to do the same (sorry Beth).  A lot of the things on my list are probably similar to everyone else’s ‘To Do List’... so we can do them together :D
I’ll put a link to my list at the top of this page.

I can't believe it's only 64 days to go!  And it will go by so fast! Between meet ups, visa appointments and uni stuff the time will fly by.  Will update again tomorrow with Day 2 of the Disney Food Challenge =)

Have a Magical Day!

Rabbit Chews Camera Cable - Food Pictures coming

So unfortunately, my camera cable has been chewed right through by my rabbit, Sophie and so I can't upload any pictures of the week food challenge that I did, but they are sitting on my camera and I'll put them up as soon as I get my new cable.  So this is really just an update on that to let you all know, I haven't forgotten and they are coming!
