The “We're big girls now!" "No seriously does ANYONE have a bobby pin?!” June 2012 Trip Report

Jaamboo everyone and welcome to my very first ever trip report!

This trip took place from Monday, June 18th-Saturday, June 23rd. I did write a PTR which you can read here if you really want.. http://forums.wdwmagic.com/threads/senior-trip-2012-2-years-in-the-making-ptr.831186/

This trip was a high school graduation celebration that we thought of when we were only sophomores in high school. We never actually thought we’d follow through with the plans or that it would ever happen, but look at that.. 3 years have come and gone and we’re already back from our vacation.. I guess that’s good because it shows that we’ve stayed close friends
Here’s (from left to right) the cast of this trip. Jill, Myself (Rachel), Jamie, and Annie.

(While we were waiting for a Hollywood Studios bus on our first night there. Sorry we had to represent our favorite Blackhawks! )

Now, like I said, this is the first trip report that I’ve written so please excuse my newbie storytelling/pictures and sorry in advance for any spelling/grammatical errors..
With that being said I really hope you all enjoy my trip report and have as much fun reading about our trip as I will reminiscing about it!

So are you guys ready?! Then ON WITH THE SHOW! Oo and don’t forget.. Para su seguridad, permanezca sentado con las manos, brazos, pies, y piernas dentro el barco, ¡gracias!

I did see that in your PTR! YUMMY! You're going to LOOVVE it! Glad you told me Haha! Is this your first time going there?

yes its my first time I can't wait!! I love mushrooms and the cream cheese potatoes sounds amazing! Its soo hard to pick the right side to get!

So I am jealous because you have the iPhone and I really want the case you have, I can't get it because I have my samsung galaxy nexus which I love but Disney needs to make some cases for android phones!

I love how in the one picture it looks like your friend has the minnie ears- I am totally debating with myself if I want to get them or not

And I love your Disney bag! Where'd you get it?

Close-up time! Ok I know this picture is terrible, but can’t you just imagine the taste?! Is your mouth watering yet....

Dangit girl, now I'm all hungry!

My mouth's watering so much I had to go fetch a bucket.

This was Jill and Annie’s dessert. I can’t remember the name and can’t find it on AllEars which is where I usually look at the menus. If anyone knows please help me out! I had a bite of Jill’s and it was delicious! If they still have this next time I go I’m definitely getting it!

Is that white chocolate cheesecake?

 

[The Empress Lilly]

So we arrived at Hollywood Studios and what’s the first thing I do? I hugged a palm tree.

Would it be awful if I guess from this picture that you are a single girl?

Great stuff so far! Missed you girls by one day, the family and I left WDW on the 17th. We were there for a week at Kidani...I hope the weather was as awesome as it was when we were there. No humidity and hardly any rain. Think it came down one day/night...Buses kinda stunk that week too, some days pretty frustrating, but pretty typical..... Die hard Hawks fan here too! Did Bickell ever tweet you back?

 

[ShookieJones]

First of all "congratulations" i know it's not written on white chocolate or anything but hey...
Second I have to say I'm super impressed that you girls decided on this when you were sophomores and followed through all those years later. It shows major commitment.
My daughter is 16, a WDW lover and a great kid, but I can't picture her deciding to do this now with her friends and make it all happen a few years later.
Lastly - GREAT trip report!

OMG! You are going to LOVE it! You definitely will not be disappointed. Can't wait to hear about your experience once you get back from your trip. Haha! I would definitely go with the cream cheese potatoes since it's your first time.
I know I used to have a Droid and would always cry when I walked past all the iPhone cases.. Haha! I actually got a new one on the trip!

Yeah we were totally debating whether or not to get a pair because they have a lot of cute ears out there now. We wanted to get the Mickey ears with graduation hats on top, but they were "all out"....

Thank you! I actually got it from Disney World many years ago in Magic Kingdom!

 

[tiaragirl]

Rachel! Yeee I forgot that you would be posting this so soon!

Lack of bobby pins in the humidity might be the worst thing ever - luckily they arrived before RNRC, or might have gotten REAL!

The Brave stuff looks cute, and your trip is making me think of my trip with the girls after second year! Hopefully you guys end up like Lauren and I, traveling and living the Disney dream for lots of years!

Also, total rip off of no prom/grad pictures with the four of you all dolled up.

GET ON THE TOWER.

Hahaha! SORRY! I don't think it was a cheesecake? But I have no clue what it could've been so maybe it was!

 

[LeCellier.Lover]

Would it be awful if I guess from this picture that you are a single girl?

HAHAHAHAHA! I actually laughed out loud when I read this! No sadly your guess is correct.... Even though with the way the boys are in my town, I'm better off with a palm tree! Haha!

 

[tehSAC]

Woo Hoo I've been looking forward to this TR. Funny though I've seen some of these photos already.

Thank you! Darnit! Did you guys have a good time? I love AKL it's so pretty there! The weather was beautiful even though at least 2 of the days we had heavy humidity.. but it didn't slow us down. Haha! We got very lucky with the rain situation though! It only rained for a short period of time on Friday, but the day after we left was when hurricane Debby rolled thru.
No way?! AWESOME! Yeah we got many "Go Hawks!" cheers as we walked thru HS on Monday night. No sadly he did not.. He has tweeted me back before though so I guess I was just unlucky this time or he's sick of me bugging him.. Haha!
