I had the two characters from Zootapia will debut in WDW for the Christmas Day Parade this year. They will start doing meet and greets sometime in late January 2016 and early February 2016
Hopefully they will last more than Iroh and Baymax at DHS.

but then.. animal lovers and furries will flock to them in masse.

I would love to meet the rabbit from the film. I forgot her name, but it was revealed during D23.

design wise.. they remind me a lot of the "Pink Berets" from the Universal movie " HOP " .

So he wouldn't let his kids keep their participant trophies.

Can you imagine if Run Disney only awarded metals to the winners??? That would likely be the end of Run Disney.

I came home to find out that my boys received two trophies for nothing, participation trophies! While I am very proud of my boys for everything they do and will encourage them till the day I die, these trophies will be given back until they EARN a real trophy. I'm sorry I'm not sorry for believing that everything in life should be earned and I'm not about to raise to boys to be men by making them believe that they are entitled to something just because they tried their best...cause sometimes your best is not enough, and that should drive you to want to do better...not cry and whine until somebody gives you something to shut u up and keep you happy.‪#‎harrisonfamilyvalues‬
I don't get it. They're little! They are learning to work together and good sportsmanship, they earned a trophy. Now I could see if they were older and really understood what was going on

As a kid growing up, my two brothers participated in various sports. They never got participation trophies or certificates. The winning teams got the trophies, and the other teams were thanked for their hard work and a pep talk about maybe next year, their team might be on top. I think both of my brothers were fine with this, and one of them did get a trophy for his team--once. My impression was that they knew that winning was a goal that not everyone would achieve, but that trying your best, always made them a winner in my parents' minds.

Glad to heae that you're not taking too many APs. I think the single mistake students tend to make is that they take too many APs and don't do well in them. And then the actual college courses for those classes turn out to be a lot easier and take up way less time. Three should be the maximum IMO for AP classes. Especially in your senior year. Like it or not, you will get senioritis the second half of the year. It will happen. You swear it won't but it will. There's a reason when I took AP economics I got a 5 on Micro but a 4 on Macro... Micro came first.

It's really not that bad as long as you come up with a schedule and stick to it. If you haven't done so already, pick at least three colleges that you want to apply to (first choice, second choice, safety). Do not apply to just one; look at a few of them. You never know when one will come through with a free ride or an excellent merit-based scholarship (which you sound like you qualify for). Your safety school should be one that you know you can afford and get into. For the other two (or more) don't worry too much about the price tag; apply and see what they offer you. Then when decision time comes, pick the one that fits your budget but also fits your needs.

Make sure you check out if your schools use the Common Application. It saves time.
DS is going for the 3. In the process of figuring out which 3. And, yes, 3 ap classes is about the limit. I wish the school would put a hard limit of 3 on it. Anymore than that, and I am not sure when the poor kid sleeps.
