Oh hi.

So I guess now that I am slightly more known on the internet (Not too known...but still slightly known) I should put this to use. So yeah, I'm gonna post random thoughts here now. Kay? Kay.

A year in review...

  • Jan. 7th, 2009 at 10:23 AM
myalice

I posted this on MiceChat, and that thread kind of died...and I don't want to lose it so I'll put it here.

My favorite trips from 2008. (This is cut and paste from MiceChat so I'm not using the nicknames we have for all the Hatters and Alices.)

1) February 15. I went with a few friends and this was the first time I got to see the Mad Hatter. What's funny is I don't remember much of the things I did with my friends, but I remember everything that had to do with Hatter. Not to mention he was a total camera hog during the parade and was very pose-y for me.

(he is doing Thriller, yes)

 

2) March 30th. This was the day I met the girl who I can now call my best friend, Leanne. I also saw my favorite Alice for the first time, the man who got me to love Hatter in the first place for the first time, and my favorite Hatter (pictured above)

 

(And he continued to pose for my camera.)

 

3) May 18th. This day was so chaotic. This was the second day I saw my favorite parade Hatter out doing walk-around. This was the day he tried to pull me up for the castle show. I also got to meet another girl who I can now call my best friend, Lizzi. We also had a strange moment with Aladdin and Jasmine when they walked past us several times going from backstage area to backstage area. This was also the day that Leanne and I decided to do something we had wanted to do for awhile. Ask Merlin why he wears a purple dress.

 4) July 2. This day was CHAOS. I would go into why, but it wouldn't really make sense. I can tell you that I spent it with Leanne and her friend Rachel and we spent a lot of time at Jedi Training Academy seeing a friend of ours. Besides that nothing would make sense, but it is why we laugh everytime we walk past Tomorrowland Terrace, make jokes about a man named Brian, and say "I need you to keep your parents behind this blue line at all times!" 

I don't have many good pictures from this day since most of it was spent at JTA. Almost all pictures have the back of Brian's head in it like this:

 

5) July 27th. I got to give Hatter a little present this day, which was the first of MANY presents he got from us wonderful people he sees every Sunday. Everytime I would watch a meet and greet, someone would have no idea who he was. And everytime after they left he would look at me and shrug. So I decided to make him a nametag. What was originally going to be "Hello my name is the Mad Hatter" became names like "Tea Man" "Guy in the hat" "Alice in Wonderland's friend" and "Crazy Person.". Most of them were names I had heard him refered to as before. This was also the day I became better friends with Lizzi because of the four words "What Would Jonas Do?"

 

6) August 3rd. Two of our amazing Disneyland jokes were created this day. "THAT'S A LADEH!" and "Good job Brian!"

Ladeh: So we were watching Hatter and Alice's meet and greet when someone, no one really remembers who, pointed out a Peter Pan "imposter" (AKA someone wearing the Peter Pan hat) When Leanne turned to see, she thought whoever it was was refering to some woman walking past. So, the wonderful Leanne, YELLS "THAT'S A LADEH!" causing everyone, especially Lizzi, to collapse on the ground laughing.

Brian: Later that night it was just Leanne and I. We decided to go on Thunder Mountain (which claimed to have a 1 minute wait but actually had a 10 minute wait) While waiting in line we're talking innocently, then hear one of the ride attendants say "Good job, Brian!" Of course we automatically thought of July 2nd Brian and we could not stop laughing. Later while we were eating one would look at the other and say "Good job, Brian!" causing the other to choke on their food.

(outcome of the LADEH incident)

 

7) October 10th. Leanne, Lizzi, and I (AKA SC...don't ask) got to go to the Halloween party this day. It was just beyond amazing. Leanne was Merlin, Lizzi was Lillian Gracey, and I was the Mad Hatter. Most of the night was spent dancing, watching Peter Pan (who would look up and wave at us every 5 minutes), and being crazy. It was such a fun night and we can't wait to return next year to do it all again!

 

Me with Littlecricket because she's awesome!

Three strange people...

 

8) November 9th. This was, least I believe it was, the day that most of the Sunday Group formed. The Sunday Group is made up of people who are Micechatters and Hatter fans. Lizzi (SkeletonStockings), Leanne (DisneyGirl52), Me, Troy (Hilsbro), Blake (lovedisney33), and Erica (Mowgli) were the main group members who joined this day. There were more people, but we don't see them every Sunday. Also the day the famous Interuppting Platypus joke was made. If you ever see Blake, ask him what it is.

 

9) NOVEMBER 26TH PROBABLY THE BEST TRIP OF THE YEAR. We got to see Merlin at Goofy's Kitchen this day. It was Leanne, Lizzi, Lizzi's boyfriend Ray, Leanne's friend Rachel, a new friend Heather (SonicHearts), and me. We spent 3 hours at Goofy's Kitchen and got to spend quite some time with our great friend Merlin. He is such a crazy wizard and we love him for it. Oh we also met Tony Baxter this day. He's awesome.

We all look like idiots, but that is entirely Merlin's fault. He YELLED something that won't make sense to people here and we all started laughing when this picture was taken. Oh and Merlin is a Doctor Who fan. Fear it.

 

10) December 14th. This day was very very sad, but also so much fun. We, mainly me because most of the main members saw her again, had to say goodbye to our favorite Alice this day. She left to go on and do bigger and better things, and she gave us a warning in advance about it. We were planning on giving Hatter and Alice presents this day, but knowing she was leaving made her presents a bit more special. Everyone wrote them little notes which were put in decorated boxes (done by Lizzi and Erica) and we presented them to the two before they went backstage at one of their later sets. I would go more into detail about this day, but it's one of those days that is hard to think about without getting emotional. We all loved her so much and we were all very sad to see her go. I know some people here aren't big character fans, but she was very very special to us. She wasn't really a character, more of a friend.

He isn't looking at the camera in this one, but he is in another one so it's ok.

My two favorite people in the world

Alice with the presents I gave her

SC in front of the doors they will one day walk behind

 

If anyone read all that, good job. It was a lot. But this year was the best year of my life and I owe it to all the friends I made during it. I'll never be able to thank them enough for all of it.

The JULIO trip report, ahbviously. (Nov 26)

  • Nov. 30th, 2008 at 2:23 PM
myalice

November 26th.

Lizzi and I took the train together to the park, laughing about lakes on the way. We got to the park at about 8:30 We did nothing for awhile, but then went to Haunted Mansion. It was a walk on! So Lizzi and I were dawdling through the portrait hall. Lizzi started dancing around when...

Voice over speaker: Please continue through the portait hall.

So we started walking and then a moment later...

Voice: Nice dance.

It was brilliant. Then the cast member at the end of the loading hall tried to scare me...but I saw it coming. HAHA HE FAILS. I'm always prepared for it since the "Have fun!" incident.

After we got off I reminded her that the castle was reopening that day, so we went to the walkthrough door to see if it was open. We were informed that it would be opening at 5. So we started walking back to Main Street, then decided to see the wait for Alice in Wonderland. On the way we got distracted by Pixie Hollow and peaked in to see who was there. Nothing interesting in there, so we turn to leave and what do we see...

OMGPRINCEFREAKINPHILLIP.

PRINCE PHILLIP AND AURORA WERE OUT. *spaz*

So we followed them over to where they were taking pictures and got pictures with them (I totally did not trip while walking over to them, Lizzi lies.) Then stayed and took pictures of them. It started to rain so they went into the tunnel. Phillip noticed that we were taking pictures of them, so we got a mini photoshoot.

 

They're so cute.

So we watched them, and followed them when they left. He was humming as they walked away, it was cute. We ran into Erin after this and I got to read a fanfic she had. We then went to Fantasyland and "said hi" to Brianna. We just kinda stared at her as she went past us working storybook. Then after watching her go past three times, we watched Captain Hook for awhile. After he left we went by where Hatter and Alice come out. While there Aladdin came sprinting past us, and went backstage. It was odd...

Then Leanne and Rachel showed up and we went and sat by Pixie Hollow. While there we saw Brianna and hung out with her. I informed her that Nathan Fillion was there Sunday.

Her: O_______O

Well we continued talking to her, then she had to leave to talk to her lead or somethin...then Hatter and Alice came out, so we hung out with them of course. Hatter was pretty surprised to see us even if we had told him we were going to try to be there....eh whatever. We did the usual with them, then when they left Phillip and Aurora came back out. So we watched them, and guess what. IT STARTED TO RAIN! So they moved to the Plaza Gardens and had their meet and greet there.

Stuff I remember:

Leanne wanted to get a picture of them with Merlin. Phillip was very entertained by Merlin.

Phillip: MERLIN! YOU SHRUNK! So that's why he hasn't had his ceremonies...

A kid walked past with his face painted like Darth Maul.

Phillip: DARTH MAUL. *does 'I'm watching you' sign*

Then Erica came, and she happened to be wearing a shirt with Maleficent on it. So we made her take off her sweatshirt and go up to them.

Aurora: *sees 'Sleeping Beauty'* Oh I love you shir- Oh dear!

Phillip: *jumps in front of Aurora* Where did you get that shirt?!

Erica: ....The mall?

Phillip: The mall...what is this mall?

Erica: A place with stores?

Phillip: Mall...Maul? DARTH MAUL?

Hatter and Alice crashed their meet and greet and snuck up on them. They didn't go unnoticed though because when they were behind them...

Phillip: AURORA DON'T MOVE!

So they talked for awhile, then Alice invited them to come to Musical Chairs. They went and helped set up, but then they had to leave :( Twas sad.

I don't remember musical chairs that well...all I remember was Lizzi running away to take a phone call...and lots of dancing.

After musical chairs we had two people added to our group. Heather and Kevin. After Hatter and Alice left, Kevin had to do something in Critter Country. So we walked with him there...and somehow ended up going on Winnie the Pooh...NINE PEOPLE. WE HAD NINE PEOPLE ON THAT RIDE.

Lizzi pointed out a County Bear Jamboree refrence...freaked me out. Those things haunt my dreams...Everyone was fairly amused by my terror. I wasn't however. I was terrified.

So he had to leave, so we let him go. But before he left he told us that Merlin was going to be at Goofy's Kitchen We then went back to Fantasyland and waited for the castle to open. It opened at about 5:30. When we got to the door, who did we see standing there? TONY BAXTER. (if you have no idea who that is, get out. You don't belong here.) We got to talk to him before going in. He allowed us in after telling us that we were seeing a preview and it wasn't done yet.

I honestly have NO idea what isn't done. It's amazing and perfect and I don't see anything wrong with it. I can't even think of anything to say about it it was that awesome. Afterwards we got to talk to other people that were involved in it. They were all really nice.

Ray showed up right after we finished talking to them and we decided to go see if Kevin told us the truth about Merlin and Goofy's Kitchen. In the process we lost Erica and Erin. Oh well, their loss. Then we went to Goofy's Kitchen.

Remember what I said in the beginning about nothing after 6 making sense? Well we're at that point.

So yes, Merlin was there. But we ended up sitting in a place that he wasn't going to be at for awhile. So we all got our food (Goofy's Kitchen has really good mac and cheese btw. I highly recommend it.) and ate. By the time we were done, still no Merlin. But while waiting Chip, Dale, Minnie, and Snow White all came to our table. We think Minnie has a thing for Merlin. She loved Mini Merlin... So Lizzi and I went to do get desert and Merlin saw us.

Merlin: YOU MADE IT!

I guess Kevin warned him we'd be there...so Merlin started yelling at Ray...really loudly...because Ray was far away. Then Merlin said he would be to our table soon. So we eagerly awaited Merlin's arrival. After quite some time he finally came over...then informed us he had been working for two hours and all he wanted to do was take a break. But would we let him? ...Eh no. Somehow we got him to stay with us...no idea how. So we talked to him for quite some time. We told him about how Minnie had a little thing for Mini Merlin.

Merlin: I think that's because Minnie has a little thing for big Merlin.

Me: I'm sure that doesn't make your boss very happy.

Merlin: MY BOSS? Do you think I work for Arthur? *goes on a rant about how he does NOT work for Arthur*

Lizzi: YOUR BOSS IS THE MOUSE.

Merlin: I do not work for a mouse! Do you know how big mice are?

Lizzi: Mickey is 5'2! He's the same height as I am!

Merlin: *Turns to cast member next to him* Julio, I'm afraid these girls don't know how big a mouse is.

So we talked to Merlin and he got at Lizzi for how little she sleeps and how he got less sleep than her but is better put together than she is. Also we had seen him take off his hat several times and we asked him why. He informed us that his hat was too small. It didn't fit his big head. And somehow our friend Sam got brought up...no idea how...but we were comparing him to Sam.

Merlin: Well did Sam learn your names the first time he saw you? No! I'm not Sam!

Me: Obviously.

Merlin: MADAME. GO WET YOUR HAIR.

Everyone: XD

He says 'Madame' = we all start cracking up. Always.

Other stuff was talked about, but most people wouldn't understand so I'll just leave that out...

So we let Merlin go and take a break. Then after he came back from his break he went to other tables. So what do I do? I write a song about him!

To the tune of the Johnny and the Sprites theme [Found here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S_TiZcn5QnE]:

Merlin and the Squirrels:

I came to live in this tree in the woods

To work on my magic on my own

But some how I feel its a...magical place?

And somehow I feel I'm not alone.

I was just Merlin till I dove through that hole

But I'm not just Merlin anymore!

I'm Merlin

AND THE SQUIRRELS!

Did you see one?

Merlin

AND THE SQUIRRELS!

Could you be one?

Meeeeeeeeerliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin

AND THE SQUIRRELS!

Nobody else sees us its true

There's only Merlin and now there's you!

So if you should roll to our squrrely home

Come join in the song you can sing it too

With you know who!

Merlin

AND THE SQUIRRELS

Sing along now

Merlin

AND THE SQUIRRELS

That's our song now

MEEEEEEEEERLIIIIIIN

AND THE SQUIRRELS.

Mock me if you will, but that song will be famous, I promise you.

So Merlin came back to our table and...forget it, I'm just sending you to the video. Watch this before continuing.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=sTErhJhRjns

You watch it? You sure? Kay good. That explains it better than I ever could. JULIO! And yes. Merlin is a Doctor Who fan. FEAR IT!

Not long after the dancing, 9:00 came around and we had to leave (not until we had far too much fun drawing on the table though!). So we left and waited for Merlin to be done talking to some kids. When he was done he came over and said goodbye to us.

Him: *turns to me* And Brooke, I'm sorry for mistaking you for Jenny. Usually my glasses are a bit stronger.

Lizzi: Oh yes they are. [or somethin like that]

Him: *glares at Lizzi*

Lizzi: :D

So we left (after Lizzi hugged him so hard his hat fell off XD she loves Merlin obviously). Everyone but Heather and I left. So Heather and I watched the fireworks, then went to watch Fantasmic, and met up with Erica and her brother. Oh, and the monkeys love us. We were in our spot where we see everything get switched out and the monkeys come out.

Green monkey: *waves at us*

Us: *wave back*

Green monkey: *Starts waving with two arms (not hands. ARMS)*

Us: ...*waves back with two arms*

Green monkey: *Starts jumping up and down while waving with both arms*

Us: *do the same*

Green monkey: *slowly stops*

Us: *slowly stop*

IT WAS FUN!

So we finished watching Fantasmic from our spot, then I left.

This trip was so much fun XD

The Weird Stuff Trip Report! November 23rd

  • Nov. 27th, 2008 at 11:12 AM
myalice

Captain Hammer's here, hair blowing in the breeze...

November 23rd.

Kay I'm posting this Thanksgiving morning. And plus I'm really tired from last night. So I don't feel like putting pictures in here. They're all on my photobucket though. You'll see them soon

This day's trip started off with meeting Erica at the train station. She brought a little purple squirrel with her, so we had fun with that. After the train to the shuttle and the shuttle to places that weren't Disneyland, we were FINALLY at Disneyland! While on the shuttle I looked at Erica, and got a glimpse out the window. What do I see? RACHEL AND LEANNE! So I called Leanne and got her to look over and started waving. The seven of us (Leanne, Rachel, Erica, Me, Merlin, Gepetto, and Mr. Purple Squirrel) walked in the park together...and got attacked by Lizzi, Jenni, Destini, and "youtube girl". I ran away ><

We watched the entrance show. Lizzi, Destini, Jenni, and Miss Youtube Girl (she has a name, I'm just calling her that) got pulled up to dance (which is in my videos on youtube), more dancing was done, and stuff like that. Lizzi gave Alice a drawing she did for her, which Alice loved (but criticised her for erasing 'every' and rewriting it) Not long later they left, and we went to wait for the castle show. Alice and Hatter just kinda stared at us from inside the castle at first...then Alice started dancing and Hatter just kinda...glared at her. He later told us that he was trying to get her to stay as still as she could, but it obviously didn't work. After the castle show we said goodbye and went off and did our own thing.

Somehow we lost Rachel and Leanne...so we went and watched Mary, Bert, and Britt at the Plaza Pavilion. Here's how we ended up watching Britt...

Erica: *five minutes after everyone saw Britt* Woah Camera Man.

Me: Yes...Camera Man...he is a ninja...

So I did commentary on everything he did and made it ninja like. Oh, and he killed Chuck Norris. He wears his boots.

*ahem*

I hate Lizzi. I really do. She's evil with her drawing skills. She's just pure evil. She's all like "RAWR I CAN DRAW FEAR ME."

...I love you Lizzi?

But yes, she drew Mary Poppins. Mary and Bert were impressed by it. They left and we went to the bakery and got some food, then went to the mice chat meet. We hung out with Blake, Hilsbro (AKA Troy), and his friend who I wasn't familiar with, Liz (I'm pretty sure that was her name, but I'm not 100% positive). Then our hero came with COOKIES! And chocolate covered cherries and strawberries! Yuuummm....So we hung out at the meet. Oh and Leanne had a gingerbread man, and was eating his arms then got lectured by another micechatter (dustysage) for not breaking his spinal cord and putting him out of his pain, so I broke off the head and gave it to her. Fun times.

They all went to lunch not long later and Alice and Hatter hadn't come out for their set, so we decided to wait at the hub. While there we got dreamed by an awesome dream squad member named Rich. We got pins and Wall-E tattoos. We talked to him for a bit, but then he left. Then we decided to wait by their backstage door. Leanne tried pretending to be Robert to see if they'd come, but it didn't work. Eventually we all started humming other stuff, and started to sing the Mysterious Ticking Noise.

Someone: *says something including the words 'Mysterious Ticking Noise'*

Then out of no where we hear:

Alice: MYSTERIOUS TICKING NOISE!

Us: AHH!

Hatter: AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! *runs*

Me: *throws Merlin at him*

Then Alice gave Lizzi a folded paper that had Peter Pan on it. But when she opened it...there was a colored picture of Alice! It was pretty.

Kay so here's the thing now...I have to write the next few hours of the day, having gone once again. So It's gonna be rushed.

I walked with Hatter (I think Erica was with me too) because Alice was walking too fast. We got to hear and see his shocked reaction to the huuuuuuge line at small world. We then played charades, which was mainly just the fangirls playing. Then we hung out with them and did pretty much nothing the entire time. We also got a new friend, Erin! After they left we went to Coke Corner and hung out with micechatters again. It was the same big group of micechatters as a few weeks earlier, - Dan + Liz. Musical Chairs was fun. I loved having Alice back. Blake told another interupting joke, once again caught on video.

After the game Alice ran ahead of Hatter, and was about to go backstage and I hadn't gotten the chance to say bye to her.

Me: No wait...ALICE!

Alice: *comes back out* WHAT!?

Me: O___________________O

It was scary.

Then we all got hugs from Hatter, and then went to get spots for the parade. We talked to Brianna and she said that we could go with her on Storybook after the parade. So we waited by where you get in line, and our group of 13 was first in line! So we got Brianna's boat and it just turned out as a tribute to Hatter and Alice.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5PSgem6N4wE

We were probably the loudest boat ever (that didn't have Hatter in it)

Afterwards Brianna got a purple squirell from Erica. She LOVED it.

Then I think we were going to go on Pinocchio but it broke. But while there Lizzi got a phone call and she had no idea who from...so we were kinda freaked out. We later found out it was Jenni...eh. Well we got out of line, and we somehow ended up by Villiage Haus.

Lizzi: Hey he looks like someo-OH MY GOSH BROOKE. Captain. Hammer.

Me: WHAT?!

CAPTAIN HAMMER WAS AT DISNEYLAND.

(If you don't know who Captain Hammer is: he is a character played by Nathan Fillion in Dr Horrible's Sing Along Blog. Watch this, you'll see his awesome: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NN3eBvZvUXk )

So yes, Nathan Fillion was at Disneyland. Lizzi and I were just a little star struck. We were singing Dr Horrible for the rest of the day.

After this we all got spots for the parade. We got to play in snow before it, and watch small world relight a couple times. In the parade we saw quite a few familiar people, one of which saw us and waved at us. After the parade we went and got spoits for Fantasmic, Ray came, I abused Merlin, I ate Erica's food, and then watched Fantasmic! Oh and Mickey's glove caught on fire...After the sparks shot out of his hands, there was a little smoke coming off of his hand, and a little orange dot on them. He put his hand behind his back and I'm guessing and hoping put it out.

After Fantasmic we watched the fireworks and got to play in the snow again. Then Lizzi and Ray left. It was down to Erica, Leanne, Rachel, and me. We watched the prep stuff for Fantasmic, like the rafts changing and the monkeys getting on and off and the princesses getting on and off. After Fantasmic we left. It was a fun day!

November 9th

So I was without Bri this week. Erica was supposed to be there about when I got there...but she was late. So I was alone for like...eh an hour or somethin? Well the past few times I've gone, Hatter hasn't been out in the morning. So instead of sitting on Main Street and waiting for him to not show up, I went over and took a peak in Pixie Hollow, and was manly and looked at the fairy stuff (if you didn't read the November 2nd TR you won't get this). Then when I got tired of this, I decided to head to Main Street to wait for Erica. So I'm all strolling along, la de da de da. Then there's this HUUUUUUUUUUUGE HAT in the distance.

Me: ....Eh wha?! He hasn't been out in the morning in quite awhile! *walks faster*

I noticed that Alice wasn't with him once again, which made me nervous. But the Queen of Hearts was with him! It amused me. So I stood back and watched them for...eh....5-10 minutes. I got to see him take some little girl who had "fur" on her coat to Cruella (who was across from him). Cruella later came over..

Cruella: Mr Hatter, where's that little annoying blonde girl today?
Him: I'm really not sure...
Cruella: Oh well I founnd her rabbit! *gestures to coat*
Him: NOT THE WHITE RABBIT!
Cruella: Oh yes.
Him: Did you shave him for the trim?
Cruella: Nah, I just grabbed him and SKINNED him! WHACK,
Me: O_____________O
Him; Oh no!
Cruella: Oh yes *leave*
It was a life scarring experience.

A little girl dressed as Alice was also brought to them, and Hatter asked where she had been, if she had just been dawdling (Daaaawdling and daaaawdling and daaawdling and daaaawdling. Why wasn't she doodling?!) then "Alice" was afraid of the Queen. Who was earlier called the Queen of Tarts.
Lady: Go get a picture with the Queen of Tarts.
Queen of Tarts: *stomp*
Hatter: It's the Queen of HEARTS.
Queen of HEARTS: *throws a fit*
It amused me

Well not that long later he noticed that I was there (I don't run up to him and talk to him when he's with guests, I stand back and wait)

Him: Are you alone today?
Me: No Erica, Lizzi, and Leanne will be here soon.
Him: But you're alone now...
Me: ....I guess so. But I'm with you, so its fine.

So I watched for awhile longer, the Queen left at some point but Hatter stayed, then not long later Hatter started doing his thing where he gets further and further away from his spot. So I started walking with him, and his crowd left. So we started walking, and he noticed my bag (it was for my Hatter costume, it says "I Throw Wild Tea Parties" on it, and it had and "I <3 Edward" [twilight] pin).

Him: Oh you throw wild tea parties eh? ...Who's Edward?
Me: ...Doesn't matter
I was not going to explain to him that he was a totally awesome (fictional) vampire...

Me: So where's Alice today?
Him: I don't know...she hasn't liked me the past two weeks I guess.
Me: Aww we miss her.
Him: I do too.

Then he noticed I was wearing a hat (same hat as the week before, its my awesome white fedora), so he took it.

Him: Ooh what a lovely hat. *steals* Lets go put it on the horse! *starts walking towards the horse drawn carriage
Me: The real horse or the fake horse? (There was one of those fake horse things by us)
Him: Lets try it on the fake one.
We decided it didn't look good enough on him, so he gave me my hat back and said it looked better on me anyway. I feel so loved ><

I mentioned how I was surprised when I saw him out that morning, and he said he liked it better because it was cooler, but then we both remembered that its November, so its not hot in the afternoons.

Me: Woah its already November
Him: Yes which means it's almost December, which means it's almost time for you to get me on your Christmas party invitations!
We (usual Hatter girls) are really tempted to have a Christmas party and invite him. ><
Oh also he was on the sidewalk, and I stepped back when a guest came up to him, and almost fell off the curb

Hatter: *talking to guest* Well I'm a great way to start your day, watch the curb dear.
Me: Oh ha ha, thanks.

So we continued walking, then people actually started coming up to him. So he started walking backwards to the magical doors while signing.

Him: I really must be going though, so this will be the last, I have a tea party to get to.
Me: You have to have tea every five minutes don't you?
Him: I like tea.

So he went backstage saying he'd see me later, then I went to meet up with Erica. We watched the band, and Hatter pulled Erica and her brother up to dance. Oh and the Queen was with them again, and she sat down and her dress was just a BUBBLE. It slowly deflated though. During the show Hatter and the Queen walked to the side to take pictures, so we watched them over there, then the Queen left, and we stayed. We walked with Hatter

Me: We don't really know where Lizzi is right now. I guess you ate her.
Him: I ate Lizzi? Why do you say that?
Me: Because she's not here.
Him: So when someone doesn't show up, you blame me?
Me: Yes. If Leanne takes a long time to get online we say you ate her. You've eaten quite a lot of people.
Him: So are you calling me fat?
Me: WHAT? Nooooo.
Him: But I eat all these people!
Me: You just have a high metabolism thing.
Him: That would work.
Erica: Or it all just goes to the hat. We need to make a new list
Him: But now I already know something on the list.\
Me: So?
Him: No idea.

I don't understand how he could think I was calling him fat. Dude, he's smaller than | that line!

Then he went backstage, and we went to the castle to wait for the castle show. We were where we were [woah that sounds cool] the week before, where we could see them inside the castle. Lizzi came, and we told her what happened so far. OH AND THEY WERE PLAYING MIKA! There was a dance thing going on at the Plaza Gardens. So I'm listening to the music, trying to figure out what it was. IT WAS MIKA! (Don't know who he is? Look him up, he's wonderful) So I ran over and watched them, then came back. Then we got to watch Hatter be strange while waiting for his cue to come, doing such absurd things as climbing the chain in the castle. Crazy man.

So usual stuff happened, blah blah blah, went backstage, blah blah blah. So we hung around doing...I dunno. I think we got Splash Mountain fastpasses at this point, then decided to go to the MiceChat meet. While there I stole Erica's joke book. Then our friend Blake came so I told him jokes. He did something mean (I think it was yelling "HATTER" and pointing when he knew we were looking for him) so I kept trying to snap the cord on his Mickey ears. I got the chance to when he was talking to another Micechatter. It made me happy. Then we decided to leave and see if Hatter was out. Blake followed us. On the way we saw Brianna! We got distracted by her. We found out that it was Alice's birthday the week before so she wasn't there, and then this week she was on a birthday vacation. Hopefully she's back the next trip. So we hung out with Brianna, Blake left and told me to call him if Hatter showed, and then we continued waiting. Oh and we saw Leanne, Jenni, and Destini. So here's the current group:

Me
Erica
Lizzi
Ray
Erica's brother
Jenni
Destini
Leanne
Merlin (doll)
Brianna

Well after awhile of waiting, Everyone in the group (but Brianna) got hungry so went to get food. Well Leanne left to stay and wait for Hatter. Well before getting our food, Leanne called me to inform me that Hatter showed. So we went back to see him, once again with the Queen. We watched him for a bit (for future notice, the Queen always left before him) then walked with him. Before going backstage he asked if we wanted to play charades. We all agreed that we did. He went backstage, and we sat on ground and waited for him. When he came out and saw us just sitting there waiting for him he was like "...You guys really just camped out here and waited?"

So charades was played. I have it on video and it will be uploaded at some point, so I won't bother going over highlights. So same thing as usual. We went to get a spot for musical chairs after Hatter left. We saw a girl who knew us from youtube. She was siting with Bert (no Mary), who no one was coming up to. There also were more people here, so this was the group:

Me
Erica
Lizzi
Ray
Erica's brother (who we lost not long later)
Jenni
Destini
Leanne
Merlin
Brianna
Youtube girl
Youtube girl's friend (whoI don't thinksaid a single word the entire time...)
Blake
then some more Micechatters:
Lightmouse
Hilsbro
and then a friend of Hilsbro's

16 PEOPLE. welloneisadollbutthatisnotthepoint

So we got to hang out with Bert. He said something about how he didn't dress up for Bat's Day, so Blake but his NBC Mickey ears on his hat.



Bert looked through Lizzi's sketchbook and drew something in Blake's. He left during musical chairs though.

Loudest game of musical chairs EVER.

One of the best ever moments:

Blake: *gets out*
Hatter: Do you have a joke?
Blake: Yes I do. Knock knock.
Hatter: Who's there?
Blake: *pause*
Hatter: Usually its good to think about these first.
Blake: Alright. Interupting platypus
Everyone watching starts cracking up. Hatter's reaction was great. For nearly a minute everyone was just laughing, and Hatter was standing there with a "Should I answer?" look.
Hatter: I'm a little afraid...

I can't really describe the punchline to the joke...theres a video of it on my photobucket, you can watch it.

Oh and if Hatter could have one wish from a genie, it would be that Robert was the piano player all the time. Everyone agreed.

We got to help with the final round again, and during the huddle I got distracted by Robert's ring...it was shiney! Hatter had to push me off the stage XD He does whatever he wants with us since he knows we love him too much to care XD After the game, we hung out with him. Oh yes, youtube girl (I don't care if you have a name, your name is youtube girl) drew pictures based off things I made up! One of Hatter with his Cher CD collection, the other of him wearing the nametags we made him. It made me happy. Anyway afterwards he had to leave and all of us walked with him (I thought some of them would stay behind ><) He asked if it was group hug time, and of course ended up getting a hug from practically everyone. I stood behind him with my hands on his back pushing him up so he wouldn't fall XD. I got my own hug too which made me happy. Then he left, and Brianna taunted us by going "Hey look what I can do!" then went backstage. She came back though.

So most of the group went to the PoD spot. Brianna, Destini, Lightmouse, and I somehow got split from the group, and ended up just standing around and talking. Something happeed, and Brianna once again taunted us.

Her: Well know what I can do? I can call up Hatter and ask if he wants to hang out. Cause I have his number and you don't, so ha!
LM (who has a name, I just like calling him lightmouse...its funny sounding): What, is he named Hatter in there?
Her: No he's under his real name.
Me: Alright here's what we do. We steal the phone, then go through her contacts and figure out which name he'd have.

Would he have this one? Nah. How bout this one? He might. Oh ha haha NO. THIS ONE! HE'D HAVE THIS ONE!

What...it would work. So we split apart from Brianna, then got to the PoD spot. I got to see this one guy on the Beauty and the Beast float who's totally awesome. I hadn't seen him the week before, so I was hpapy when he was there. We watched the Alice showstop, cheered for the pink flower (dude...he's awesome. Totally awesome. Without a doubt the awesomest parade performer ever). Lizzi had a teapot that she wanted to show Hatter, so we got their attention and showed it to them.



They had imaginary tea with it.



And here's a picture of the pink flower. Cause he's awesome.



After the parade, our group just hung out for awhile. Someone ran up and hugged Hilsbro's friend, and turns out they knew Lizzi from Devart! *sings* It's a small world after all. So after awhile the group split up. Lizzi had to leave, so we escorted her to the gate, said bye, stole her fastpass for Splash, then she left. So we did nothing for awhile, then went on Splash Mountain. Jenni got the extra fastpass, which left Erica out. She got in without a fastpass though.

So the whole reason we were going on was because a friend of mine was at WDW, and she was going to do a heart on a ride for the picture. So I wanted to do the same, this is how mine turned out.

 

Turns out the picture for her's didn't work, so I never got one, but I know she did it, so it's all good (still love you Sarah <3)

Then we went on again, and POINTED TO THE TOP OF THE MATTAHORN! (no picture of that one)

Then went on again and amazed the camera with our MAGIC FINGAHS!

I dunno what's better. Leanne's face, or the fact that Destini is SO doing the Hitler salute in the back. (Still love you Destini)

After that ride I said no more. Good too, since those three trips caused me to get a cold. We then went to the Winnie the Pooh sweet shop (whatever its called). I got two s'mores, and DUDE. THE GUY WHO HELPED ME SOUNDED EXACTLY LIKE DICK VAN DYKE. IT WAS FREAKIN AMAZING. Like seriously. EXACTLY like him. After we got our sugar, we went on the teacups, then got a spot for PoD. Leanne and Jenni got a turkey leg, and we devoured it in like...5 minutes. It was yummy.

KAY. POD. MOST AMAZING THING EVER.

So we decided we would cheer for the pink flower again, since ya know he's awesome. So Alice float comes, and he has his back to us. He turns around and we all start cheering. He gets this super excited face and runs over to us.

Us: WHOOO PINK FLOWER!!!
Him: I DON'T KNOW YOU, BUT I LOVE YOU GUYS! *FLOWERGLOMP*

Oh yah. We totally got hugged by a flower! He was AMAZING. Officially my favorite parade performer. He's seriously awesome. I'm gonna miss him.

Besides the pink flower thing, we also waved to Ariel until she disappeared. We waved to her, looked away, then looked back and she was turned around STARING at us. So we waved, she waved back, and we looked away. Looked back, she's still looking at us. So we waved at her, she waved back, and this kept going until she went backstage.

So after the parade we hung out talking about the awesomeness of the pink flower, then decided to go see if we could find Maynard. We did, he was doing the game squad thing on main street. Youtube girl was there too. So they were playing a golf like thing. Merlin got to play :D He did the best out of everyone!

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHmar (don't ask)

Afterwards I had to leave. It was a great day. This was the last time I'll see PoD until it comes back (in February I believe?). I'm gonna miss that parade while it's gone.

Totally Freakin Magical Trip Report - Nov 2

  • Nov. 11th, 2008 at 9:31 PM

November 2

Alright so I've gotten lazy with these lately. Though I have been going, if you look through my photobucket you can see that. Also this might be strangly formated since I wrote it in wordpad, but I dunno

So Bri and I went Sunday, what else is new. I found out that Bri lost her pass, so as punishment I made her wait in line while getting her pass while I went in the park. So I sat at city hall while she got her pass. After she got it we waited around for a bit. My feet started to fall asleep, so I decided to walk to Pixie Hollow and look in. After a brief look, I started to walk back. A bit down Main Street Lizzi called me and told me she was at Pixie Hollow. So I walked back and met up with her, then walked back to Main Street and back to where I was before. Then Erica came, so now we had a group of four.

The entrance show didn't happen because it was pretty wet due to previous rain. So we started walking somewhere, and ran into Dan who we had hung out with a few weeks earlier. So we talked to him while waiting for the entrance show, and I messed with his Stitch plushie. Then the castle show started. We were to the side, so we could see Hatter inside the castle. He was messing with us.

After the castle show we walked with the car like usual. Hatter blamed me for something that I don't remember now. Alice wasn't with him though. We asked what he did to her, and he told us he scared her off, and she probably wouldn't be there for the rest of the day. We missed her :( . After all the characters got out Hatter stayed and talked to us for quite some time. He read a bit of Lizzi's copy of Alice in Wonderland, talked to us a bit, ran off when he saw Leanne, talked to us a bit more, then left.

After the castle show it was Leanne, Dan, Lizzi, Rachel, Bri, and me. We watched Harry Potter Day participants for awhile, then left Leanne and Rachel (who were participating) to go to the mice chat meet. We weren't there for long though (like...5 seconds really), because we saw Hatter. So we waved bye to Dan, then ran off with Hatter.

Kay in all honesty, I'm having issues remembering what happened this trip. I went to the park thinking "Kay I should write a trip report this week." then something happened (its coming up soon), and I forgot a good portion of the day. I can't remember hardly anything Hatter said. So I'm just gonna do highlights till the bit I remember.

- Watched Hatter for a bit, not many people were coming up to him.

- Had Storytime when more of Alice in Wonderland was read

- Asked Hatter what he was for Halloween
Hatter: I was the scariest thing you could possibly imagine!
Either me or lizzi: Leanne?

He never did tell us...

- He made a Kristen Chenoweth in Wicked refrence. Well a refrence in response to a refrence. Bri was doing the Galinda hair toss, and he saw, smiled, and said 'No hands!'. If you don't know Wicked, you won't get it, and its not really worth explaining

- I got ice cream on my hat and had to run to the bathroom to clean it off (not a great moment...but I remembered it.)

- Leanne and Rachel showed up

- Escorted Hatter to the magical doors

- Decided to go to Pixie Hollow

- Leanne and Rachel left us while in line

- Got my picture with Fawn, Silvermist, and Tinkerbell...need to retake the one with tinkerbell.

- Left Pixie Hollow

Alright NOW I remember what happened. So Erica, Lizzi, Bri, and I walk out of Pixie Hollow all innocently. Leanne and Rachel are there, and they're just laughing. Pointing at us and laughing.

Us: ...What?
Them: BWHAHAHAHAHA
Us: Why are you laughing at us?
Rachel: Not at you guys.
Leanne: You will never guess who's here.
Us: ...Who?
Leanne: SAM.
Us: OH MY GOD.

Now, Sam may not be a known name to some of you. He's better known as Psycho Hatter. I haven't seen him since July 2nd when I saw him at Jedi Training Academy (well not counting the day I swear I walked past him, which I believe was July 7th). I missed his last day, and was afraid I'd never get the chance to see him again. So to find out that he was there when I was? Yeah I kinda stopped breathing for a second. So we were on Main Street trying to find him. Thank goodness he stands out in a crowd. So we saw him, and he was heading down Main Street. So we followed him and just kinda watched him for awhile. We were trying to get Leanne to go talk to him, but she didn't want to. Finally she did...and had a bag on her foot XD.

Her: Oh hai Sam.
Sam: Hi.
Us: Leaaaaaaaaaaanne....your fooooooot.
Her: EH? So anyway.
Us: LEANNE. FOOT.
Her: EH?
Sam: *sees bag and laughs*
Lizzi: *runs over and points at bag*
Leanne: EHHHH? GETITOFFGETITOFFGETITOFF!!!!
Sam: XD

So bag came off, and we got to talk to Sam for a bit. He "introduced" himself to us.

Lizzi: Yeah I saw you a couple times. Twice as Hatter, once as a grumpy old wizard.
Sam: I never worked here...nah just kidding. I remember.
Me: Yeah I saw you a bunch of times, but you never knew my name. [I was always the mad hattress to him...which is how I got that nickname]
Sam: I know! :D
Me: *glare* *fail at glaring* *smile* Gah I can't glare.

What can I say? I was too happy to glare!

So we talked to him for a bit longer. But not long later he had to run off. He was participating in Harry Potter day, so he had things to do. So we said goodbye, and as soon as he left...I fell. Yeah, fell. My legs were like "NO MORE WORK" and I was like "*collapse*"

*ahem*

Anyway after that totally wonderful magical moment, Lizzi and I skipped around. (Obviously I got back up) Then Hatter came out. So we ran over to him...

Lizzi: GUESS WHAT JUST HAPPENED.
Him: What?
Us: WE SAW SAM.
Him: I heard he was here! I want to see him...

Then we talked about getting him to come to Musical Chairs, and how Hatter would force him to lead it, so he could watch. So once again, I don't remember this meet and greet that well...afterwards though we went to Coke Corner for Musical Chairs. I called Leanne to tell her to try to get Sam to come, but he didn't. >< Musical chairs was wonderful anyway.

Highlights:

- At the begining of the game Bri and Erica realized they hadn't thought of a joke, so I was talking to them quietly while Hatter was going over the rules. He saw this and would not allow it! He yelled "NO CHEATING NO CHEATING!" and ran over and started pushing me away. I walked away, then when he went back to his spot I walked back to mine.

- When Erica remembered she didn't have a joke, she had me got get a popsicle stick out of her bag that had a joke on it. When she pulled it out when she unlost (would that be the term? Eh I dunno), Hatter looked at her like "Where the heck did you get that?!"

- A little girl asked a riddle that went something like

Little girl: What happens when the Mad Hatter gets angry? He gets MAD!

It was amusing.

- Since Alice wasn't there, Hatter would've been the only one to mix up the chairs. So when the final round came he ran over to us to get a chair and said quietly to us "Help me, help me, help me, help me!". So we all ran around and grabbed chairs and jumbled them up.

- Sometime during this final round madness, a table got pushed into the mix. Towards the end of the final round we all started putting the chairs around the table and sat down to have tea.

Lizzi: Wait...I think we were playing a game.
Him: OOH A GAME? What game?
Me: HIDE AND SEEK!
Him: Ooh! Alright you hide, and I'll seek.
Me: *hide*
Him: *starts to seek* Wait...this doesn't seem right...

- Then we got pulled up for the huddle. Lizzi mentioned moose pickles, and Hatter asked about pickled moose. Robert was the only one on topic by saying it was a tie.

- After everyone started putting away all the chairs I sat in one that was almost put away, but not quite. So DAN (Yeah he was back) decided to put it away. So he started pushing it while I'm holding on screaming "HELP. HELP. HEY HATTER. HELP." Hatter just ignored my plea for help. Erica saved me though. Yay Erica!

- Britt (yeah he was there too) left right after the game without saying anything, so when we saw him leave we started yelling "BYE BRITT!". Then when Hatter realized he left he just frowned and said "Bye Britt."

Once again, not many people came up to Hatter, so we just kinda stole him. I told him that he had a lot of time before he had to get ready for the parade (musical chairs was short) and he was like "I can change the time if I wish." so I told Lizzi that he was really Hiro Nakamura. YATTA! (Heroes joke, in case you didn't get it). Leanne got a picture of him with Merlin...of course he tried to eat it.

I took the flower that was on Merlin and put it on his hat. Then continued trying to find a spot for it. He wasn't a bit fan of having it on his hat.

 

But then he decided to take it like a man and pretended like he enjoyed the flower.

 

 
Manly.

So after that, he started seeing how much he could fit in his pockets by just stealing things off the table, like (I think) Lizzi's sketchbook. a water bottle, a melted kit kat bar, and he tried to put Lizzi's bag in there. He showed to us that it could fit. Dude...his pockets are HUGE. Thats how he fits all our stupid stuff in there. He's got huge pockets! So he started taking everything out, and he decided that he wanted to draw something, so he started walking towards the magical doors, then stopped at the cotton candy cart and started drawing it. Price of cotton candy = $Too Expensive.

After his moment of artistic skillz, we continued to walk towards the magical doors. My friend Margery called me, so I told her that we were with Hatter.

Hatter: HIIIIIIII
Margery: Who is that?
Me: Hatter.
Margery: Who?
Me: ...Hatter?
Hatter: HIIIIIIIIIIIII MAAAAAAAAARGERIIIIIIIIIIINE.
Margery: Who is that?
Me: WHAT DO YOU MEAN WHO IS THAT?
Hatter: WHO IS THAT? WHO ARE YOU!

Then Margery got scared and I had to hang up on her. She now thinks he hates her.

So back to the walk to the magical doors.

When we were walking there they started swinging open.

Me: WOAH! Those open!
Him: Yes they d-....*looks at me with a 'no really?' look* Wow. *slow clap*
Everyone: *slow clap*
Me: YAY! *bows dramatically* *nearly falls*

I was so proud. So we continued walking to the magical doors, everyone got a hug, and...Hatter stole Merlin.

[Takes a brief moment to read about Claude on Heroes...hm thats interesting.]

[/end heroes moment]

Where was I? OH yes. Hatter stole Merlin and ran behind the magical doors. He's predictable. So I said that I'd give him the Brian nametag if he gave us Merlin. So he stuck his hand out and I snuck over and gave him the nametag. He jumped out, yelled "HA!" and informed us that he now had both the nametag and the doll. He gave both back though, gave us all a hug again, then left

So we watched the parade and Ray showed up and scared Lizzi, we watched the parade, Ariel, Alice, and Hatter's mics were all off, and...yep.

After the parade Lizzi had to leave. So we started walking towards the exit, and stopped at Pixie Hollow to peak in and look at the fairies. While there we saw Sam again! We talked to him a bit more, and found of he misses us like we miss him.

Sam: Yeah...I miss you guys.
Us: You have no idea how much we miss you.
Lizzi: Yeah we continue to do your version of the final round now. Alice noticed the last time we did it and did a 'tear tear' thing.
Sam: I bet I could guess who that was...
Lizzi: Yeah. "Carebear"
Sam: Oh yeah! I gotta use those names now...

So we talked to him more, but then he had to go be manly and look at fairy stuff (o_O....kay you do that Sam...whatever floats your boat.) so we left. We walked Lizzi to the exit, said bye, and off she went. Then Leanne and Rachel ran off to do Harry Potter stuff, so it was just Erica, Bri, and me. We hung out in Tomorrowland for awhile, then we all started to get hungry. We decided to go over to DCA and get a hot dog. So...we did! We got to listen to the Play Parade, and then went into the Animation Academy. I saw Prince John! I love him...So we went in, sat in the entrance and waited for Peter Pan and Alice in Wonderland to come on, then went to Beast's Library. I took the test twice. First time I got Lady Tremaine, second time I got Hades. Fun...Then Erica took it and got Nala, and Bri got the Evil Queen. Then we went to Ursula's Grotto and madness followed. Bri makes a great beast. 

We then decided to go back to Disneyland for the parade. We saw Maynard, but kept going...I don't even remember watching the parade though...weird. But afterwards we found Leanne and Rachel. They were going to the closing thingy of HP day so we went with them...nototallynottoseesamwhywouldyousaythatnehhh...we went kinda crazy though...well Erica and I did. I made Merlin bungee jump using my scarf. We conga-ed. Erica and I adopted Merlin. I danced and I think some guy took a picture of me...according to Leanne Sam was laughing at me at the time...so yeah he totally told that guy to take a picture of me.

Sam: heyheyheyheyheyheyhey guy. See that girl? Yah. Go take a picture of her.
Him: Must...obey...the Sam... *FLASHPHOTOGRAPHY*
Me: EHHHHHHH?
Sam: BWAHAHAHAHA IT WORKED! MUWAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

....Ahem.

So we did other strange stuff, and they started passing out prizes. Once again Sam was the most memorable thing.

Sam: *walks by waving something in the air*
Me: *squint* What is that?
Sam: ....It's why so sirius?
(Sirius Black action figure...get it? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA-no but seriously.)

So we said our goodbyes, and Bri and I left.

OH BUT THEY GAVE ME THIS DISGUSTING GUMMY EYEBALL AND IT TASTES LIKE WHAT I IMAGINE LEMON LYSOL WOULD TASTE LIKE EW EW EW EW EW. AT LUNCH THE NEXT DAY I WAS LIKE 'YAAAAAAY CANDY! OM NOM NOM *bite* EWWW WTF. WTF. WTF.'

Anywho. Eventful day. Magical really. Simply terrific..

Pictures be here: http://s4.photobucket.com/albums/y103/dreamer20k/Disneyland/11-2-08/?start=0

Hopefully my next trip report will be up soon



And in case Sam reads this (I don't know what he does, that man makes no sense), I so abused being able to say your name now, yes. :D

The OMG I FREAKIN HATE HATTER >_< trip report

  • Aug. 27th, 2008 at 12:01 PM
Bat boy!

 August 25th

Here we goooo...
Alright you know the drill! Bri and I got there at 8:45, and waited. Just like ever week. But this time, when 9 o'clock came along, no Hatter. So we waited...and waited...and waited some more. At 9:10 I got tired of waiting.

Me: Kay I bet if I leave he'll come. So I'm gonna do a lap around Fantasyland. Call me if he gets here.

So I'm strolling down Main Street, and while going past Plaza Inn I hear a very familiar yell. So I whip around.

...

Guess who was there.

Yep. Hatter. Lemme tell you something about my relationship with Hatter at this point. I was rather annoyed. Last time I went to see him, he wasn't there. The next day, he was all like "You didn't see me yesterday! HA HA HA HA HA! I played a trick on youuu!!!!". And then when I didn't come the next week, he said I wasn't allowed to be mad at him since I wasn't there. OH HA! I WAS TOTALLY ALLOWED TO BE MAD AT HIM! Then before my flight to San Francisco the other week I talked to him on the phone, and he got some song stuck in my head. Which is the billionth song he's gotten stuck in my head. So yes, I was mad at him.

So I stood there and glared at him, even though he didn't realize I was there. Then someone said "Look it's the Mad Hatter!" so he turned and waved to them, then saw me. He smiled really big and waved at me. And I just glaaaaaaaared. He then pouted at me. I glared. He then glared at me. I glared and crossed my arms. He glared and crossed his arms. I turned and walked away. It felt so great to glare at him XD

So I called Bri and told her to come down. Then I contined to glare at him. Oh and at one point I pushed her out of the way, and Captain Hook saw, and thought she was flipping out because of him. It was amusing. ANYWAY GLARING AT HATTER. So I continue to glare at Hatter, and he saw me.

Him: *glare* GO AWAY!
Me: I'M MAD AT YOU!
Him: WHY'S THAT?
Me: BECAUSE.
Him: Oh ok.

And then he was like "HAHA YOU FAIL!" and went inside the resturant. And never came out :( FINE BE THAT WAY YOU MEAN OLD MAN. Oh then they didnt come out for the entrance show. So instead Bri and I did splash single rider...I think...we did it several times so I bet we did it then.

After whatever we did, we went to see the castle show. Afterwards we walked with the car and talked to Hatter. He told me I'd have to quit acting eventually and start liking him again. Then he made fun of me because I almost ran into someone. Evil man.

Me: Well I could just leave you then. Perhaps I'll leave you and go to Peter Pan...wait.
Him: *GAAAAAAAAHHHHSP* Did you hear that!? She said she was going to leave me for Peter Pan!

So I told him I was mad at him for the day he wasn't there because he was playing a trick on us. He was like "BUT THAT WASN'T MY TRICK!" Sure it wasn't Squishyman. Sure it wasn't. So when we were close to the end we decided to cut them off and go to where the car stops. But instead it stopped at city hall! And Squishyman kicked everyone out, and stole Mickey's baton! Then as the car continued on he just smiiiiiiiiiiled at us.

Me: ....Uh-huh.
Him: I have my own personal driver!
Me: You kicked everyone out!
Him: I pay him well.
Me: Sure you do.

So we escorted him to the magical doors. We got into a little fight about the baton, and then let him go backstage. He went backstage with a "I'll see you later!"

Then we were alone...so alone...

So we...went on splash? Yes we did! I'm sure of it this time! We went on splash and my log got stuck in front of Brer Rabbit at the end. After quite awhile I started singing along. I think the people in the log started to get annoyed. Whatever. After we got out of that jam (no evac :-\) Bri wanted to eat, but I wasn't hungry. So I told her to go eat, and I went on Splash two more times. And I still wasn't very wet. At this point it was almost 1, so we went to Fantasyland and waited....and waited....and waited some more.

After waiting quite awhile, I sent Bri through Fantasyland to see if they were out. She didn't see them, but she did see Brianna. She's even better! So we went over to the carousel, and waited for her to come around.

Me: OMG ITS BRIANNA!
Her: *quickly turns around* WELL HI!

She asked us what we were up to, we told her we had been waiting for Hatter but kinda gave up. She couldn't help us though, cause she hadn't seen him either. Then she went on her merry way, and we went to the teacups. Where we waited...and waited...and waited some more. Then Bri was like "I'm gonna go check main street!" so she left and I stayed there. I realized that I lipsync the speil without realizing I do. After one time some guy was like "You come here often, don't you?" and I had no idea what he meant. When he told me I was lipping the speil I was very surprised.

Anywho, after awhile, Bri came back. Five minutes later, I got tired of waiting.

Me: THAT'S IT. I'M DONE. I am going to go ride Splash Mountain. You call me if he comes, which I doubt. Have fun waiting for someone who I bet won't come. *leaves*

And I went completly the wrong way, and it took me forever to get there. And right when I get to the entrance...my phone rings.

Me: *answers* Hello?
Bri: Hatter showed up.
Me: ...You're kidding right?
Bri: No I'm serious.
Me: ...I JUST got over to Splash AND NOW HE SHOWS UP? Call him evil for me, kay?
Bri: Alright.
Me: I'll be there soon.

So I walk back, and can't find them anywhere. So I call Bri a billion times to ask where they are. She FINALLY picked up.

Me: WHERE ARE YOU?
Her: I'm at Coke Corner, they just went backstage.
Me: ................................................................................................................Excuse me?
Her: They just left.
Me: I'M NOT EVEN KIDDING NOW! I'M MAD!
Her: Well come over to coke corner, they'll be out soon.

So at this point, my feet want to die. But I walk to coke corner, then force Bri out of her chair (it was in the shade). Then I realized I had too much I wanted to say to him, and I couldnt lose a couple minutes. So we went over by the backstage. I got bored waiting, so I took the wrap off my water bottle. Then I had no where to put it, so I stuck it on Bri's face. Then Jack Sparrow strolls out.

Him: *looks at Bri and gestures to his cheek* I think you have a growth...

It was amazing XD. So we wait for Hatter, and Bri tells me what went on in the meet and greet that I missed.
- He told her to look Christian the Lion up on youtube. (By the way, go look it up. It's adorable)
- He went to the wishing well and said "I WISH MY FANGIRLS WOULD STOP BEING MAD AT ME AND COME BACK!" (when she told me that I started to feel bad XD)
- More complaining about how his fangirls are leaving him
- She told him that I was mad at him, and he was like "WHY IS SHE SO MAD AT MEEEEEEEEEEE????"
and other stuff...

So we waited even more...and he showed up THREE MINTES LATE. So he's all strolling along.
Me: YOOOOOOUUUUUUUUU!
Him: ME!
Me: YOU EVIL PERSON!
Him: What did I do?
Me: YOU MADE ME WAIT FOREVER! Then I finally got tired of waiting, went over to Splash-
Him: And why would I be over there?
Me: I never said I was looking for you! So I went over to Splash-
Him: If you were waiting for me, you should've stayed in Fantasyland. You know I don't go over there.
Me: I WASNT LOOKING FOR YOU >_< SOIGOOVERTOSPLASHANDITTOOKFOREVER. Then I finally get over there, and Bri calls me and is like "Oh hai, Hatter showed." SOIWALKALLTHEWAYBACK AND. YOU. LEFT. I am not happy.
Him: And how is this my fault?
Me: ......GAH I GIVE UP!

So then they played Musical Chairs, which I filmed.

Highlights:

- There was a girl playing while eating ice cream (who was later named Miss Mint) and a girl playing while eating a lollipop (the lollipop left before the first round though)
Hatter: We have boys! We have girls! We have lollipops! And we have ice cream!
- Alice doesn't know how to play musical chairs. She NEVER knows how to play musical chairs
- Alice tried to sit on a kid before the game even started...
- Hatter told everyone to go one way, and Alice said the other way. Thus, scaring and confusing all the children
- This really cute little girl (Audrey) wanted Hatter to play with her one round. So she grabbed his hand, and he ran around the chairs with her, and made Alice run the game. This happened a couple times. Sometimes Alice played with her as well.
- Girl: I can't find one...[a chair]
Hatter: You can't find one? Well where could it be?
Bri: In you hat!
Hatter: In my hat?
Me: Yes?
Hatter: I don't think so.
Me: Oh. Ok.

- Hatter made a little girl cry, and Alice brought her back to her mom. Hatter said it was all Alice's fault.
- There was a girl in a wheelchair sitting in the sun. Hatter was like "WAIT HOLD ON HOLD ON! *pushes her in the shade* There we are, you're welcome.
- Hatter: Miss Sophia!
Me: *mocking voice* Miss miss miss miss meh meh meehh
(I was still kinda annoyed with him XD)
- I boo-ed Hatter...just cause I could XD
- Girl: Why did the cow cross the road?
Hatter: Why did the couch cross the road?
Girl: Cow.
Hatter: OH THE COW! Why did the cow (moo) cross the road?
Girl: *says something*
Hatter: That's what I said!
Alice: WHY. DID THE COW. CROSS. THE ROOOOOAD.

- Hatter was singing 'A Dream Is A Wish Your Heart Makes' very badly while being dragged around the chairs by Audrey.

- The girl with the ice cream and another girl both sat on the same chair. So Alice stole her ice cream and walked away.
Hatter: ALICE YOU CAN'T HAVE THAT!
Alice: Oh. *gives the ice cream back*

- The girls tied four times and Alice got annoyed and said that her and Hatter would play. They then tied twice.
First time:
Hatter: Well now we're in the same boat as them.
Alice: We're in a boat?
Hatter: Yes we are.

Second time:
Alice: *pouts*
Hatter: See you got mad at them for the same reason, you're a very bad example!

- Hatter "La la la la"s a lot...lol

- Last round:
Hatter: ALICE DO YOU KNOW WHAT THIS MEANS?
Alice: WHUT?
Hatter: IT'S THE VERY LAST ROUND OF MUSICAL CHAIRS!
Alice: *does a Macaulay Culkin in home alone impression....you know slaps hands to face like :O)

- Audrey didn't want to put away all the chairs, so he told her her prize was "THE MEMORY" I was like "lol THE MEMORY OF BEING HEREEE!!" Meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerliiiin XD

Then musical chairs ended, so I messed with Hatter a little. I had this little book with stuff I wanted to do.

- He saw I was filming him.
Him: If you're mad at me why are you taking my picture?
Me: I'm filming you.
Him: FILMING! D:
Me: I'm sending you to America's Most Wanted.
Him: AMERICA'S MOST WANTED? D:

- He turned and saw that I was still filming him.
Him: HAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII. I'm loveable not wanted!

- I gave him an honorary citizen of Disneyland pin that I found in a bush. It said Andrew on it though.
Hatter: Is this another nametag?
Me: I found it in a bush. *gives it to him*
Him: ANDREW? That's very nice! *sees a paper I'm holding* What's this?
Me: My friend drew this, I swear I had nothing to do with it!
So I gave him this drawing


...it was in History, we were bored. It says "We love Hatter goes hippy. Whee Haatter is a hippy who has a corn coat" HIS COAT LOOKS LIKE CORN SHUDDAP. "Loren H. Not Brooke. Please don't take this seriously! :-P)
Him: I'M TAKING IT SERIOUSLY!
And he realized that the only thing I colored (the hat) was based of some REDICULOUS Disneyland Paris hat. 

- I had recorded the audio from THIS VIDEO: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=T_rP5SDvyKI on my phone to play for him. It scared him XD

- I told him he sounded like Lizzi on the phone (WHICH HE DID). He thought I said that he was Lizzi.
HIm: But as you can see I'm Andrew apparently

- I asked him if he was a bat...

Apparently he is.

Me: Lizzi wanted me to tell you that they do not love Brian more.
Him: I THINK THEY DO! Thats why they have a nametag. But now apparently it is ANDREW who's loved more! *gets out nametag and points at it* DUN DUN DUUUUUNNN


- Me: *looks at list* Um...
Him: Well how much is on that list? *reads over my shoulder* Ask him if he heard...
Me: OH! Have you heard our nickname for you?
Him: Nickname? ...Is that Squishy?
Me: Kay just wanted to make sure you heard that XD

And that was the last of the list...kinda...lol

- Me: *looks at what Bri was filming* WHY ARE WE FILMING HIS HAT?
Bri: EHHHHHHHHHH
Him: Maybe it'll do something.
Me: What'sitgonnadowhat'sitgonnadowhat'sitgonnadowhat'sitgonnado?
Him: I'm gonna do THIS! *throws pen in air and catches it* Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh

I dunno if he looks impressed or insane...His face when he threw it in the air was better though, but I don't have a screenshot of it yet. It'll be my icon sometime though. He's all like "OMG THE PEEEEEEN!!!"

- I called him earless again.
Him: I HAVE EAAAAAAAAAAAAARS!

- Hatter asked a girl if she learned to make hats at school, and she said she did.
Him: Perhaps you could get a job in my hat shop pretty soon!
Me: A job he doesn't even do
Him: I have people!

Then I started going on about the American Express commercial where Beyonce says to Ellen "Have my people call your people!" and Ellen is running around trying to find her people.

- Audrey came back to him. This was the cutest thing I have EVER seen at Disneyland. She came up and hugged him. She told him she was gonna go swimming, and she wanted him to come along. 
Him: I don't think I can go swimming today!
Her: You need a bathing suit.
Him: I need a bathing suit, but I don't have one. I only have this jacket and this big hat.

And she rubbed her nose against his, oh my gosh it was adorable. She was so set on getting him to swim with her too. When she left he had the sweetest smile on his face.

Bri: You have a new fangirl.
Him: I do! She's so adorable.

- We stood there singing Legally Blonde the Musical. He scared us towards the end XD
Us: Keep it positive as you slap her to the floor! Keep it positive-
Him: *to Alice, but facing us* That's very true!
Us: O_O
Him: Are you going to walk us?
Me: *in head* Oh gah did he hear us? *to him* Yep
Him: Come along then!

I stll have no idea if he heard us XD

- Walking to the magical girls there was a girl who he had apparently seen earlier.
Him: Hello again! You're just following me everywhere!
Her: I'm your stalker!
Him: I think I already have two of those XD *points at Bri and I*

- I realized I suddenly was no longer mad at him
Me: Wait when did I suddenly become ok with you again?
Him: When you became ok with me? Probably when you saw me again! Look at this! Look at this! *does circular motion around face* How could you stay mad?

XD He knows we think he's adorable.

- Bri and Hatter were convince that there was a bird in a bush. I did NOT see it.
Me: You guys are insane, I see NOTHING.
Him: It was a bird!
Bri: IN. A BUSH.
Me: There is no bird.
Him: THERE WAS A BIRD I SAW IT!
Me: You guys are completly insane! I already knew it about Hatter, but now I know it even more about you. 
Him: Well after all I saw it, and if I saw it, that means I've seen it!
Us: ........*silent*
Him: It's very true.
Me: ....Whut? 

-THEN WE GOT TO THE MAGICAL DOORS.
Me: OH NOES THE MAGICAL DOOOOORS
Bri: The magical doors?
Me and him: The magical dooooors!

Then I remembered that Bri said earlier that he's afraid of loud noises.
Me: Oh! So apparently you said earlier that you're afraid of loud noises?
Him: LOUD NOISES!
Me: THEN WHY DO YOU YELL EVERYTHING?
Him: I never yell! Never never!

Then Bri gave him a hug, then I got sad because I didn't get a hug, so I got a hug, and he said Leanne would be upset. 

Then they left (Bri yelled "BYE SQUISHY!!!" and freaked out a cast member by us.

Then we got a spot for the parade. After awhile I got really hot so I went in the Cinema and watched Steamboat Willie, then came back out. There was this little girl who was so excited about Peter Pan and the Fairy Godmother in the parade. We happen to have the same favorite things on that float!

So the opening float came along, and it was my favorite Peter! So he waved at us, and gave up a thumbs up as usual, and I got a picture of him that I love.


:)

So parade goes along, and I SWEAR everytime we watch the parade, there is one fork that is always there.


THAT FORK.

Anyway, one of the guys with the Pinocchio float stopped in front of me, so I took a couple pictures of him. I like this one:


So we got the Alice showstop. Super hyper Hatter. I liked him.

After the parade I'm not sure what we did. I know we went on Splash a few times though. Well for the second parade we went to our usual spot. I danced to happiest place on earth since they got rid of the dancers (which I think was a stupid idea). Then during the opening float show stop, Peter ran over to us since there was some cast members there that weren't working, and gave us all high-fives. I joked that I would never wash my hands again because Peter Pan touched them. Yeah I'm weird.

So Bri wanted food after the parade, so we went to the golden horseshoe. I still wasnt hungry though. But I ate a couple of her french fries, and a chicken strip she didnt eat.

After we.....ya know, I think we went on Splash once again XD. Then...we did...stuff? until the fireworks. Before the fireworks we got on the train and rode it around during the fireworks. Then at 10 we had to leave. So we said bye to Disneyland, and went home.

Pictures from the trip: http://s4.photobucket.com/albums/y103/dreamer20k/Disneyland/8-25-08/

Videos will pop up here soon: www.youtube.com/madhattress330 All my videos are on another computer since they were taking up so much space. So I have to save them there, transfer them here, and upload them. 

Next trip: Either Monday the first, or Tuesday the 2nd, I'm not sure which...

The Turkey Popcorn Trip Report

  • Aug. 16th, 2008 at 2:22 AM
myalice
(My icon hypnotises me....)

August 15th

We return...on a Friday! Bri and I went to the park (an hour late because of some confusion as to who was taking us) today (well...yesterday). It actually started off rather odd and boringish. Hatter wasn't there at the entrance show so Alice was by herself. Belle was out there though, and while on her way backstage, she stopped to talk to Alice. This was me: OMG WCMI COMES TO LIFE AT DISNEYLAND. WHERE'S MY CAMERA.

-ahem-

So entrance show goes past. We...did...something while waiting for the castle show. Hatter DID show up to that. He called Art a 'silly old man'. Art poked his nose to get back at him. So they go in the truck..car...thing and we decided to follow it. Hatter told Bri she had a nice hat (I didn't wear mine all day, it gets hard when I want to take off my camera which I do a lot. So they get by the backstage, and Hatter spotted Cruella.

Hatter: Ohhhhhh Cruellaaaaa...WOOF. WOOF. WOOF WOOF.
Cruella: *glare*
Hatter: *quickly walks backstage*

We got really confused after that because we could NOT find Alice. We then realized she went backstage before Hatter. Heh. 

So at this point it was 11:30. We ate at the Villiage Haus...kinda. I was eating my food no problem. I put it down for a minute and I started looking around.

Bri: You not hungry?
Me: No I am. 
*five minutes later*
Me: Since you asked if I'm not hungry I became not hungry!!!

So I ate half my burger and tossed it. We went Peter Pan hunting, but couldn't find him. We then went Brianna hunting, couldn't find her either. So we just went to the meet and greet area and waited. And Alice came along...without Hatter. So no Hatter yet again. The meet and greet was cute though. There was one girl who LOVED Alice. She was telling her about how she went to the Fantasy Faire and learned to twirl, and she started twirling, and Alice twirled as well. She also danced with Alice, it was cute.

After the meet and greet we went on the train I think, probably. We honestly were not having a good day at this point. We were tired, and it was so strange not having Lizzi and Leanne there. So we're going around on the train, and at about 2, Bri got tired of the train. So she gets off and I stay on. I practically fell asleep on the train. Oh, and the conductor explained why small world is closed. The children of the world went home to visit their parents.

So I went to Main Street and went to "Robert's Secret Lair" (aka Coke Corner), and waited for Robert. He came out, waved at us, and sat down to play. Alice came along...without Hatter. Yes, he was only out for the Castle Show. So Alice and Robert led Musical Chairs.

There weren't really highlights for it though, sadly. I guess you need Hatter for highlights. After musical chairs we talked to Robert and Alice for a bit. Bri got sad because Robert didn't yodel

Bri: B-b-b-b-b-b-but...
Robert: Hm?
Bri: You didnt yode-yoda-yoo-GAH
Me: ...ignore her
Bri: YODEL. You didnt yodel.
Robert:...YOU DIDN'T ASK!
Bri: I didn't know I cooooooould...
Robert: ....*sighs* *reopens piano* fine. *plays and yodels*
then it ended
Us: YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!

After he asked if I uploaded a video of him yodeling, because he saw one on youtube and he had a feeling it was either Lizzi, Leanne, or me. I said it wasn't me, but it was probably Leanne because she uploads all the musical chairs videos. He said that it could've been her, but she'd never own up to anything. I later realized it was probably Lizzi's video. XD Well anyway, I asked Robert if he remembered how we mentioned how we saw a picture of him wearing black instead of blue, and after some talking about it, he realized what it actually was. It was a red vest with dragons on it. He called it his Mulan vest. Then he asked why we weren't with Lizzi and Leanne, and I said that we came because we wouldn't be able to make it Sunday since I'll be out of town. 

After talking to him for a bit longer he said he'd see us later and went backstage. Bri and I went to get a spot for the parade. We decided we wanted the Gateway to Dreams stop. So we got a spot for that, on the opposite side than we usually get. Float comes along, and yay it's my favorite Peter! I filmed the showstop, so it'll most likely be on youtube. I love watching him in the showstops. He always has so much energy.

After the parade (oh we also caught the Dreams Come True showstop. MINNIE WASN'T THERE) weeeeee....I think we went on Snow White...for some odd reason...ANYWAY. After that we went on the train then star tours, I looked for a Peter Pan pin at the pin store in tomorrowland, couldn't find one, we went to the pin store in Frontierland (actually we got distracted by the college band. They played a version of 'When you wish upon a star' that seriously gave me the chills'), then we went to Frontierland and I found a Peter Pan pin, and a Cheshire cat pin. He was in the VILLIANS section. I don't understand (water polo) why he'd be in there. So we got my pins, ate at Golden Horseshoe, then went to get a spot for the second parade.

WHICH WAS GREAT. 

Before the parade even started we had fun. We talked to this Dream Squad member, Wade. It actually didn't click in my mind that he was a Dream Squad member. So we're talking to him, we talked about Wicked because he said he saw it for the second time this past weekend. The entire time there was this cheering going on, so he looked over to where it was coming from and said "I have no idea why they're cheering...but I want in..." So I cheered for him. Then he was like "Oh they're cheering for the cast members...I wonder if I were to just walk past if they'd cheer for me...I'm gonna go try!" So he went over and started walking about a few people clapped. So he sighed, then did a high kick-y thing. More people clapped...I cheered.

So we went back to our spot, but we got nervous because Wade didn't come back. But after awhile HE DID!

Me: YOU RETURN!
Him: I'M BACK!

And he was like "Oh here's this is for you." and he gave us these two pins with Tinkerbell on them. They were all sparkley. 

Bri and I: You are so our favorite cast member ever now!
Him: Oooh, in that case..*gets out a pad and a pen* How about a fastpass to any ride in the park?

So we got a fastpass to Space Mountain, then Wade left us. We cheered for him as he left, and he bowed. 

A bit after he left:

Me: ...Bri...we just got dreamed.
Bri: What?
Me: We got  dreamed!
Bri:...Kay.

I love how Leanne's gone more than me, and I got dreamed and she didn't. MUWHAHA

So parade float comes along, and Peter noticed us! He started waving and he blew us a kiss. So showstop starts, and while he's posing in the beginning, he turns to look at us, smiles, and nods at us. For a good portion of the showstop he was looking at us. And we totally think he had the Blue Fairy and the Fairy Godmother move over so we could see them better, cause they were over more than usual, and he was smiling at us. After the show stop ended he gave us a thumbs up, a peace sign, winked, blew us a kiss, and jumped back on the float. That Peter is so sweet, I love him.

So...we watched the parade. Theeeeeeen....ummmmmmmm....oh! We posed for pictures at Ariel's Grotto. Then we used our fastpass for Space. It was a good choice, it was 50 minute wait. We did a "W" for a picture, in honor of Wade. Then we went and got a mint sundae and listened to Robert. We asked him if he had a CD like Michael does, and he said that he will soon. *Spaz* I WANT THAT CD

-ahem-

So now its like...8:30 I think....so we went in the main street stores and drooled over stuff that we didn't have enough money for. But I did see a Peter Pan figurine that's $38. I WILL GET IT. Then after browsing for a long time (I also found a painting I want) we watched the 50 First Years show with Steve Martin and Donald Duck. I liked it :) Then we watched the fireworks (I danced along), then went on the train, then we went home. 

Pictures: http://s4.photobucket.com/albums/y103/dreamer20k/Disneyland/8-15-08/

Videos will pop up here eventually. Seriously, just subscribe to me if you haven't already. I put them up at strange times lol:  http://uk.youtube.com/user/MadHattress330

Next trip: Ummm...August 14th. I'm gonna be in Northern California this upcoming week. So if I don't get videos up from today by Sunday, that means they'll be up like...next Saturday

The GOOD JOB BRIAN! Trip Report

  • Aug. 8th, 2008 at 4:50 PM
myalice
August 3rd

Kay gonna write this fasst. Leanne and I were together nearly the entire day so I'm just gonna link to her's.

So I got to the park a bit before 9, and was going to meet up with Jane after she finished at PFF. So I wandered around main street and took some pictures. After awhile Cruella came out and I thought about watching her, but then Hatter and Alice came out. It was the new Hatter that I saw a few weeks ago during the "Hatter Switcharoo". So before they went to their spot I watched Cruella go to her spot. I heard some little kid go "AHH! SHE'S EVIL! EVIL! EVIL!" and started CRACKING UP. 

So I went and watched Hatter and Alice. Kay, this new Hatter, HE IS HILARIOUS XD And man, he like...loves Alice. XD. Most Hatters I've seen call Alice ugly, weird, smelly, and act like they hate her. He kept calling her "The pretty girl". And throughout the day he held her hand so many times. Oh, and a big group of people came up and three kids wanted a seperate picture. So Hatter was like "Who first...HUDDLE!" So him and Alice had a huddle, then Hatter said "ALRIGHT US FIRST!" and he kneeled down and yanked her onto his knee to pose for a picture. Oh some girl came up to them and when he asked where she was from she said "Twin" and he assumed she had a twin and started yelling for her twin. I was standing next to her mom, and we were laughing so hard.

So Jane came along and I found out that he practically loves Jane XD. So they went backstage and we waited for the entrance show, where we ran into Lizzi and "Starfish man" aka Ray. During the entrance show we shoved her up so many times to dance with Hatter. XD After the entrance show we went on Pinocchio, he wasn't hippy :( Then we watched the castle show (Jane went up again), then tackled Leanne.


I now send you to her entry http://disneygirl52.livejournal.com/11728.html

What she forgot:

After Hatter found out my name he asked who Edward is (I had a I <3 Edward pin). We told him he's from a book series. When they came out later we tested him on our names. He couldn't remember mine, all he remembered was Edward. So he was like "Your name is Eddie!"

Lizzi made suggestive comments about my sunscreen packet 

I didn't yell at Robert for being a minute late. I pointed out that he was a minute late. He told me he couldn't find tape for his "microphone" (don't ask why thats in quotation marks)

We were sitting on main street for an hour XD

What she wasn't there for:
Kay so when I went to look for the bag, and it took me awhile to realize that we were on the side that the parade started on, so I couldn't afford to be a bit late. So I ran through fantasyland, on to main street, back through fantasyland, and to where we were. I was seriously about to pass out.

PETER PAN DID A CARTWHEEL. During the last showstop of the second parade they don't have much of an audience (I think besides a few cast member only Lizzi, Ray, and I could see him). So before the showstop I swear he sang a high note. Then during the show stop, he did a cartwheel. Lizzi and I started cracking up, and he looked at us and started laughing. After the show stop he looked at us, gave us a thumbs up, blew us a kiss, then jumped on the float. I love that man XD


Pictures can be found here: http://s4.photobucket.com/albums/y103/dreamer20k/Disneyland/8-3-08/

Next trip: Um...maybe August 10th. Depends if Bri can go.

The I Saw A Squirrel Trip Report

  • Aug. 1st, 2008 at 8:55 PM
myalice

KAY! Let's start out with a little problem. I failed to write a trip report for the trip a couple weeks ago. I was hoping to write it while in Palm Springs, but one day into my trip I got sorta depressed *points at Leanne* I'M NOT POINT ANY FINGERS OR ANYTHING. So I never wanted to sit down and write it. But I do remember some highlights from the day, so that's included in this trip report.

Things I remember from that trip a few weeks ago (I don't wanna look up the date XD):
- On the way into the park I SWEAR I walked past Brian. Yes, Brian from the July 2nd trip report. The guy who made us go insane. We were walking in, and he was walking out, and he looked right at me, and I looked at him, then looked away. And then when I brought it up to Bri she said she didn't see him. SO I AM STILL REALLY CONFUSED.
- We hung out with Hatter that morning. Alice was late, and he claimed he ate her. Oh, he stole my hat too. And he's my best friend, while Bri is stuck with the flowers
- HATTER SWITCHAROO WTF? There was a different Hatter out for the entrance and castle show. Later when Squishy was out for the 1 o'clock meet and greet we brought it up to him.
Bri: So you planning on being there for musical chairs?
Him: XD Yes! You two were a bit puzzled this morning, weren't you?
me: Uh...YEAH.
Confusing man
- ...stuff happened like sher-ah-dees, musical chairs, parade (OMG WTF HATTER IS FRIENDS WITH PETER?), and....other stuff?
- KAY I CAN'T REMEMBER ANYTHING TILL AFTER FANTASMIC! YAY! So fireworks were canceled, which I knew was gonna happen.
Crowd: *moan and grown*
Me: *over dramatic* OOOOOOOOOOOH MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN
Janitor by us: *looks at me* o_O ....*laughs*
So there was I sea of people going over to main street. And we were stuck in that sea. And while in that sea, I saw Brianna. But we couldnt get out. So we got to main street, and we went back to where we saw her and I kinda stared at the little yellow light thing for awhile, then we just hung around and talked to her. We got the wonderful phrase "My name's Brian....by the way" from that conversation...
- SECRET AGENT PIANO MAN TURNS INTO THE PIANO COVER AT NIGHT OMG!

Thats it!

KAY BACK TO OUR SCHEDULED PROGRAMING.

JULY 27TH!

Kay I have no idea how long this is. I had to write it in notepad, whick is weird. So if its REALLY long, Sorry.


Alright Sunday. Bri. Yay! On the way to the park I saw Boxman! It was a guy with a box on his head. BOXMAN!
Me: BOXMAN!
Bri: ....WHO?!
ANYWAYZ!
So we got to the park, then hung out on main street till we saw Hatter and Alice. They were going up to the train station. So we went up there with them and just watched them. AND GAVE HATTER NAME TAGS!

Highlights from 9:00 meet and greet:
- So he gets people all the time who are like "And who are you?" so we decided to give him name tags to help those people out. I got him and Alice looking at them on video! Yay. The name tags were like:
Hello my name is Ryan Seacrest
Hello my name is Paul
Hello my name is ?
Hello my name is Hannah Montana
Hello my name is Tea man (Alice's favorite)
Hello my name is hombre del sombrero
Hello my name is crazy person.

He ended up wearing the one that said "hello my name is crazy person" which I made! *does elijah wood's dancy dance* People kept asking him about them and he was like "THEY MADE THEM FOR ME! AREN'T THEY LOVELY!?" Hehe

- Hatter: I'm a Hatter, so I'm good at hatting!
Alice: Do you think you're excelent at it?
Hatter: I think so!
Alice: Could you make a hat out of anything?
Hatter: I could make a hat out of anything!
Alice: *walks away and grabs woodchips and leaves, and comes back and hands them to him* Ready, go!
Hatter: Do I have to use all the materials?
Alice: No. It'll be like a project runway challenge!
Hatter: A PROJECT RUNWAY CHALLENGE!
Bri and I: (We love project runway) BWHAHAHAHA!
Hatter: *comes at me with woodchips and leaves* Well I need a model!
Me: *points at bri* HER!
Hatter: No she already has a hat! You don't. Come along!

The video I have of it cuts there, but he put some leaves on my head, then put woodchips on it, then he dropped a couple, and it freaked me out and I jumped and the hat went EVERYWHERE.

Hatter: MY HAT!
Me: WHAT WAS THAT?!
Alice: Well that didn't turn out that well.
Hatter: Well its not my fault I had a bad model!

Meh.

- I was slightly annoyed by the dirt in my hair.
Me: HATTER IS NOT FIERCE!
Hatter: Fierce what? *looks at his arm*
I WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND WHY HE LOOKED AT HIS ARM.

- They sing....a lot.
Hatter: Cleo was a little bitty fish!
Alice: I love cleo! And Figaro!
Hatter: Figaro was a little bitty cat! Figaro looked at Cleo with hunger in his eyes!
Alice: ...
Hatter: Then shook his head and sadly said, 'No no, I'd rather die!'
Alice: *stares at him*
Hatter: Cleo was a little bitty fish. Little bitty fish. Little bitty fish.
Alice: *stares at him with an amused WTF? look*
Hatter: Don't you ever watch the Disney sing-a-longs?!
Alice: *slowly shakes her head*

- A little girl came up to them with hannah montana on her hat.
Hatter: *points at us and looks at hat* IT'S ME!
Me: YOU'RE LOVELY!
He should've worn the Hannah Montana name tag
Hatter: Best of both worlds!

That's all he knows...it wasn't even the same beat. I AM MAKING HIM A CD WITH THAT ON IT! XD

- A girl came up to them with a Jonas Brother's hat.
Hatter: I don't know any of their songs.
Bri and I: *start singing S.O.S.*
[For the record, I am NOT a Jonas Brothers fan. Though I do admit they do have some good songs]
Me: Thanks I have Jonas Brothers stuck in my head now!
Hatter: I didn't do it! I don't know any Jonas Brothers songs!
Me: You...ALICE POINTED IT OUT. Guess its all her fault.
Hatter: HAHA YOUR FAULT!
Alice: *shrugs*

- Bri had a troll doll on her bag, and I swear it showed some resemblence to Hatter. It had a weird nose, was short [Kay he's not that short, he's like...two inches taller than me XD] and was slightly creepy.
Alice: *sees the troll* Do you have a momerath?
Me: I dunno, but it looks like Hatter.
Alice: *squints* Oh...
Hatter: LOOKS LIKE ME? *looks at it* Oh it's quite lovely! I should dye my hair orange too!

- I returned to talking about the troll.
Me: I SWEAR IT LOOKS JUST LIKE HIM! It's creepy just like him!
Hatter: No it isn't.
Me: It's even wearing an orange SMOCK! It's just like him!
Hatter: He's not wearing an orange smock. I'm wearing a jacket, not a smock.
Me: It looks like a smock. It looks like a smock on you.
Hatter: How many times can you say smock?
Me: I dunno, but it's fun to say, smock.

- We couldn't remember the challenge on project runway that week, and since he mentioned it we decided to ask Hatter if he watches it.
Bri: Hatter, do you watch project runway?
Hatter: XD I've heard of it.
Bri: You've heard of it?
Hatter: YOU HAVE NO PROOF!

- Hatter has a blue mohawk. ...I don't know either. Oh and he's gonna go all super ninja and do a backflip over the railing, then run away.

- Bri: (Refering to how my hat was resting on the railing) HER HAT'S GONNA JUMP!
Hatter: DON'T DO IT!
Alice: What?
Hatter: The hat, it's going to jump.
Alice: Oh.

- Me: *singing to the tune of the map song from dora the explorer* Hatter's a train, he's a train, he's a train, he's a train
Hatter: I'm a train!?

- We had this long conversation about 9:30. It was 9:30 and some seconds.

- We weren't really paying attention to what was going on...
Hatter: Thank you, I grew them myself!
Us: ....What did you grow?!
Hatter: Ears.
Me: ...So you didn't have ears before?
Bri: He was an earless creature!
Me: He just had holes in the side of his head.
Hatter: Well so did you!
Bri: HE WAS AN EARLESS CRAZY PERSON!

- Me: My hand huurts.
Hatter: Then put it down.
Me: I dont wanna put it down!
Hatter: Someone likes to complain!
Me: ...You?
Hatter: Someone.

- Right before they left, Hatter went over to my hat and stole it, then held it over the...balconyish thing.
Hatter: *to some random person* DO YOU WANT A HAT? IT'S NOT MINE!
Girl: Not yours? No.
Me: THANK YOU. I don't know who you are, but I like you!
Hatter: *holding hat out of my reach* You can't have it! You can't have it
Me: I'll take your hat then!
Hatter: Ok! *acts like he's gonna take that hat off*

- Hatter plane like NEEEEERRR CRAAAAAASH BOOOOOM!

That enough highlights for you guys? Good, cause that's all I've got. Then we watched the entrance show and...stuff happened. Then we watched the castle show and saw Lizzi! YAAAAAY LIZZI!
After the characters left we fallowed the car over to main street and saw Leanne. YAAAAAY LEANNE! Hatter noticed she got a haircut and looked right at me with a smirk and said "It's very shear genius, don't you think?"
Me: ....GAH WAIT WHAT?
Hatter: *walks away*
Me: AGAIN WITH THE BRAVO REFRENCES. GAHHHHH!

Well then I told Leanne to stand by the trash can and she'd go to Paris (...), then we went on the traaaaain. And we got off at toontown and hung out at the teacups for awhile, then we were gonna go over to New Orleans Square, but Ray decided he could get there faster, so we kinda started a race to see who could get there faster going different ways. I think we would've won, but I started coughing really hard and we had to stop so I could buy a water. YAY WATER

So we went on haunted mansion, and then went on Pirates. Lizzi and I talked to each other the entire time. After pirates we went back over to the teacups and waited for Hatter...and he never came. So we just went crazy, and I stole Lizzi's stuff. After awhile we started to wonder where they were, and after more time (it was 1 when we got there, and it was 1:30 at this point) Leanne and I decided to go look for them, and found them. XD I called Bri and said "The crazy person is coming!"

So they played "Sher-ah-dees" which is charades and pilates XD I do not understand why he pronounces it all weird. Well they played the game and...did stuff...and I filmed it....and I took a scary picture of Peter Pan...and then more stuff....and a showed Hatter a not so flattering picture I got of him and he made a funny face, which Lizzi got a picture of.

KAY THAT WAS GETTING TOO BIG. Anyway. We walked with Hatter as he walked to his backstage. Alice got really far ahead of him, and we realized this was because whenever someone would come up to him he would stop, instead of sign while walking like Alice does. So we told him that he needs to learn how to multitask. He told us he feels bad when he doesn't stop. Daw, ain't he sweet? So we fallowed him to his backstage area.

Hatter: So I will be seeing you for musical chairs?
Me: NO.
Hatter: O_O Fine then I won't look for you. *walks backstage*

So after he went backstage we just waited for musical chairs. NOW HERE'S THE PROBLEM. Leanne hasn't uploaded her video of musical chairs yet. So I can't remember most of the stuff that happened. I do remember two things:

- Alice told the joke "What's green and smells like paint?" and whenever I hear that joke, I whisper Peter Pan, because of an answer given by Alice in a past game...Except I did somethin wrong this time.

Alice: What's green and smells like paint?
Me: PETER PAN!

Kinda yelled it. Best part? PETER PAN WAS THERE XD So he glares at me and I start cracking up, and Alice is just like "...No."

So Peter kept glaring at me...it was getting scary XD

Me: *looks over at Peter*
Peter: *glare*
Me: Peter Pan is my favorite movie...does that help?
Peter: ...A little.
Me: GREAT! He's only gonna kill me a LITTLE now!

- Alice and Hatter got into a rock paper scissors battle, they kept choosing the same thing. XD

After musical chairs we gave Hatter a finger trap and he got Alice's finger in it, and dragged her around the area. Eventually Peter got them out of it, well Alice out of it. Hatter still had it on his finger. I tried to get him out of it, but he was shaking his arm and NOT helping. So Peter got him out and then after awhile I got bored and put the remains of the trap in his coat. It was there when he left XD.

After this we fallowed Hatter (well I think it was Bri, Leanne, and I) and I yelled somethin to Bri about not leaving because I wanted to ask him if he was a squirrell. He was so confused XD Then he said "NO ROOM!" to someone, and I thought he saim "I'M A BROOM" ...

So as he was leaving I mentioned it to him.

Hatter: Am I a BROOM?
Me: Yes a broom. Or maybe a squirrel with a broom. A squirrel with a broom in a smock?
Hatter: .....And on THAT note, I'll see you guys next week. *Goes backstage*

XD
So we went back to coke corner, said goodbye to Robert, watched the parade, then went to see Merlin. We walked with him to his backstage, then Leanne left us. So it was Lizzi, Bri, Ray, and me.

So we went to the Village Haus and ate. Then we went to innoventions to see the dream home of the future thing. At first we had no idea how to get in. When we finally got in line Lizzi and I started talking about theater, Christian Borle, and various other things. It was more fun than the building itself! So we get in, and are greeted by Nathan Lane! ...sorta. So we were amused by that. Then we wandered around, Ray and I spyed on people, Lizzi and I laughed at the story of Peter Pan where they cut out everything. Then we wandered for awhile, then left.

After that we went on star tours, where we were from one starspeeder to another for reasons that were never explained to us, then we went our seperate ways. Bri and I went on the teacups, then sat at coke corner and listened to Robert, then we went home.

July 2nd - The Chris Crocker Trip Report

  • Jul. 6th, 2008 at 3:09 AM
myalice
July 2, 2008 – The Chris Crocker Trip Report (And sorry to tell you, I can’t tell you why it’s the Chris Crocker Trip Report)
 
My trip was a little different this time. First of all, it was a Wednesday. Secondly, I wasn’t with Bri. Lastly, I didn’t get to the park until 12.
 
So I went with Leanne and her friend Rachel this time. I was supposed to get there at 11:50 and then go over to the Partners statue and wait for them. Instead I didn’t leave until 11:20 instead of 11:10. Then there was traffic (guess we caught everyone going on their lunch break or leaving early for the 4th of July break). Then my cousin got lost. So I got there at like 12:10, then the line at the entrance was really long. I finally got over there at 12:20, and was really nervous that they left. But they didn’t. So I greeted Leanne with a yell of “CELL PHONE GIRL!” then we went on our merry way.
 
We wandered around Fantasyland, and stared at this area where there was going to be filming and wondered what they were doing. Then we decided to go over to haunted mansion. On the way there we saw a sign that amazed Leanne describing how they would be putting in new flowers there. After her taking a good 5 minutes to take a picture of it, we went on haunted mansion. Leanne wanted to be friends with all of the people working there, but then quickly forgot that.
 
We then decided to go over to Tomorrowland for no apparent reason. We ran into Brianna (By the way, from now on so there’s no confusion, my friend Brianna will be ‘Bri’ and Brianna Garcia will be ‘Brianna’) while there and she told us that she would be working in Fantasyland later, and we could come and bug her if we wanted to. We went over to Jedi Training Academy, but we were too early. We wanted to see if we could spot the familiar cast member that Leanne saw last week, but he wasn’t there.
 
Then we decided to go look for Hatter and Alice. So we went over to the Matterhorn and saw the Queen and Alice…but no Hatter. Brianna came over to us and informed us that Hatter had a ‘hat malfunction’ and had to go backstage to get it fixed. I decided that the hat fell over his face and he couldn’t get it off. So he was wandering around with a hat over his face. I compared him to a turtle. XD
 
Then during the meet and greet the Queen randomly walked off. Not long later she came back. She looked at Rachel’s Mario hat, and pointed at it, then did some weird stroking motion, then walked away. We had NO IDEA what had just happened, so we all started cracking up. Awhile later she pulled the same thing. She tapped her hat, and then walked away. So we were all laughing hysterically. I decided that the Queen was actually Mario, which is why she never talks. Since…ya know…Mario speaks Italian…whatever!
 
After that we decided to go on Pinocchio. And something amazing happened. So we come to the end with Geppetto…
Us: Say it…say it….
Geppetto: I’m so…
Us: *GASP*
Geppetto: HIPPY!
Us: YEAHHHHHHHH! WHOOOOOOOOOOOO!
 
So he finally said it! I mean, it took him long enough! While we were in line for the ride Leanne said “MARY POPPINS, AND BERT, AND A PENGUIN!” but I heard “Mary Poppins, and a burning penguin!” …I really did. We ended up finding the three (It was Mary, Bert, and a penguin. Not a burning penguin…much to my dismay) on the carousel. Which I really do think should be the Mary Poppins carousel, but whatever.
 
After that we ran back over to JTA to see if the same cast member was there. He wasn’t out there. We had time to kill until musical chairs (About 30 minutes) so we just waited there. After awhile we all started flipping out cause we were getting SCARED. [Seriously, don’t ask us why. Even if you do, we’re not gonna tell you our strange reasoning lol]. After awhile he did come out, and we kinda turned around and tried not to fall over laughing. He went up to the front to get the kids ready for the show. He looked at us briefly and we then fled and went to coke corner for Musical Chairs. Got a great spot too.
 
So we saw Hatter coming…
Leanne: *whisper* Please call me an imposter, please call me an imposter, please call me an imposter.
Hatter: IMPOSTER!
Leanne: YESSSSSSS!
Hatter: And not even a good one!
 
So they set up for musical chairs. I’m glad I got to see Sweet Hatter again. The time I saw him he must have been having a bad day cause he wasn’t that funny. But he was great this time. Highlights:
 
- A kid got out and Hatter gave him the riddle “What’s green and smells like paint?” And the kid had absolutely NO idea. His family is over there saying “Green paint!” and the kid is not getting it. Hatter starts going “*cough*GREEN PAINT*cough*”. They finally ask “Would you like to phone a friend?” and the kid asks his sister, who says ‘green paint!’.
Hatter: *to the boy* is that your final answer?
Boy: *shakes head ‘no’*
Hatter: O_O
But the kid eventually got it right
 
- After the green paint thing, Hatter went over to talk to the family briefly about his hard riddles.
Hatter: I'll be like, 'I'm thinking of a number between 1 and 3!' ‘7!!!!’ ‘.....sure!’
 
- Alice won a little door hanger thing as a prize for ‘unwinning’ and Hatter stole it from her.
 
 
After Musical Chairs Hatter came over to us.
 
Hatter: And they’re all still staring, how rude. Did you leave your manners at home today?
Leanne: …Whaaa?
Hatter: Guess you wanna film, I got that.
Leanne: Yeah
Hatter: What kind of movie is it? Drama, comedy, action?
Leanne: All of them at the same time!
Me: A really horrible one.
Hatter: Actually, no Alice is in it. It’s probably a drama! *walks away*
Me: Starring this guy in a really ugly orange coat.
Hatter: *comes back* *to me* It’s a very horrible one? Then you must be in it! *waves to camera* Hello.
Me: XD
Hatter: *still to me* Tell a riddle or something funny!
Me: …no thanks.
Hatter: No thanks?
Me: No thanks.
Hatter: Why not?!
Me: I dunno
Hatter: I didn’t ask for your permission. I asked for you to do it!
Me: I don’t want to though!
Hatter: Really?! Apparently she forgot her manners at home too! *walks away*
Me: ….*I’m slow…*…What?
Hatter: *singing and signing at the same time*
 
Then after not long at all Alice said they had to go get ready for the parade. Now Leanne has wanted to give him a hug for some time, because of all of the trouble she’s put him through.  
 
Us: *waiting for him to be done with some other guests*
Hatter: *turns* Ooh you want a picture or something?
Leanne: Um….
Me: *sigh* Nah, she just has something she wants to give you.
Leanne: I DO?!?!
Hatter: YOU DO?! Well what is it? ….As long as it’s not a kiss.
Leanne: WHAT?!
Hatter: *hides behind his coat*
Leanne: Nooo I just wanted to give you a hug…
Hatter: Oh alright then. *holds out arm for her while still hiding*
Leanne: *hug*
 
After that we hung out at coke corner for awhile, I hatzed her a bajillion times, looked through her sketchbook, then we ran off to get a spot for JTA. Yes, no parade once again.
 
Ok first JTA wasn’t that eventful…well it was, but I’m sworn to secrecy as to why it was eventful. All I can tell you is that during the show, the two cast members that got the kids ready for the show were a bit more entertaining than the show itself. Oh, and the familiar cast member messed up almost all of my pictures!!! GAH!
 
Though there was one part where I was trying to get a picture of one storm trooper as they were leaving, when I realized there was one standing next to me and he was looking at me….then he pointed at me, pointed at himself, and then pointed at the camera a few times. When I finally went to take a picture of him, HE WENT IN THE CAST MEMBERS ONLY SECTION AND SLAMMED THE DOOR!!! D:
 
After the show, we decided to wait for the next show at 4:35. So we stayed in the same area, and then there was….PRE JEDI TRAINING ACADEMY MADNESS! DUN DUN DUNNNN!
 
Now I can say that the familiar cast member (who will be referred to as Brian from now on, since that is what his nametag says.) was the main reason for most of this madness. The other is that we’re all quite mad.
 
Here are the highlights from P-JTAM:
 
- I walked around the area mocking Brian. Pretty much walking baaaaaaack and foooooooorth and turning on my heel a lot.
 
- I got very excited about it being sponsored by Hasbro. I realized that that is why Brian works there. It’s sponsored by a toy company!
 
- Leanne laughing like Archimedes (I wanted to go to Mistah Merlin next time I see him and present her to him and say ‘HEY MERLIN WE FOUND ARCHIMEDES FOR YOU!!!!’) We then decided that Leanne was gonna say “MADAM MAAADAM!” to him.
 
- Brian was talking to another cast member who pointed in our general direction.
Me: He’s pointing at us…why is he pointing at us?!
Leanne: POINTING POINTING MORE POINTING!!!!!
 
- Brian started walking in our direction.
Leanne: HE’S COMING THIS WAY MON!
 
- Leanne randomly yelling ‘I AM CLAMMMMM!’
 
- Leanne mocking Grasshopper Hatter (That sounds so weird…I usually just call him Grassy). First she laughed like him, and then she tried to pose like him. She couldn’t get the eyes right though.
 
- Leanne: OH LOOK ITS SIMBA!!!!!!
Rachel and I: WHAT?
Rachel: THAT’S A BUNNY!
Leanne: SIMBA’S A BUNNY!
 
- Me: This is going to be the most successful video on youtube.
Leanne: YOUTUBE? THERE IS NO U IN THIS TUBE MAN!
Me: ….T-U-B-E there is a U in tube.
Leanne: THERE IS A TUBE IN YOUUUUUUU!
Us: o_O
Leanne: There is a tube inside of you! Indubitably!
 
- Leanne: And we all know the Q is indeed the number value!
Me: Number value?
Leanne: I don’t know anymore!
 
- Leanne stole Rachel’s hat
Leanne: LOOK AT ME I’M A-MARIO!
 
- Me looking over at Brian and his face being a mix between =D and O_O. I have NO IDEA why he was like this. I think it had something to do with a little kid who was walking around the area.
 
- Leanne: I AM MRS NESBIT! DON’T YOU GET IT?! YOU SEE THE HAT? I AM MRS NESBIT! OHAHAHAHA!!!!
 
- Leanne suddenly put her head down and stopped moving.
Me: YAY SHE’S DEAD! We have gathered here today to NOT mourn the loss of Leanne Bernoaljkl what the heck is he doing?! *gets distracted by Brian*
Rachel: *waves Leanne’s arm* I am Buzz!
Leanne: HELLO I AM BUZZ!!!
 
- I started choking cause I was laughing so hard, and I started to not be able to breath (which is completely normal for me. If I say I can’t breath I’m laughing so hard, I’m usually not exaggerating. I really am not breathing at the time lol)
Leanne: STAY WITH MEEEEE! BROOOOOOOOOOOKE!!!!
 
- Leanne broke my camera again
Leanne: I JUST PUSHED THE SHINEY BOW!
Me: NO MORE SHINEY BOWS FOR YOUUU!!!
 
- A cast member pointed in our direction again while talking to Brian.
Me: Kay that guy is pointing at us.
Leanne: YAY!!!
Rachel: He’s probably saying ‘Get those crazy people out of here!’
Then they started walking over in our direction.
Leanne: *babbling that is not understandable*
Me: Leanne, breath. You good? Steady. Steady.
Brian: *talking to another cast member* EVIL! EVIL! *Waves arms in the air*
Us: BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
Leanne: I CAN’T TAKE IT ANYMORE BROOKE!!! THIS IS CRAZY! THIS IS MADNESS!
Us: THIS IS CAKETOWN/SPARTA!
(The entire time Brian is right by us staring at us XD)
Leanne: Heart attack….*head falls down on table*
Us: …?
Me: Ok she’s good. Quick put some jam on her nose. Or some lemonade up it. *pulls her head up* Quick put lemonade up her nose! *pulls head up more* IS THAT A BOOGER!?
Leanne: AAAAAAAAHHHHHH! YOU CRACKED MY NECK. YOU WITH YOUR CRACK!!!
 
- Brian kept dancing whenever another cast member had her back turned, then would stop if she turned around.
Me: HE’S DOING THIS TO US ON PURPOSE. This isn’t just some coincidence. This is quite literally on purpose! This is his way of slowly getting rid of us.
Leanne: HE AIN’T GETTING RID OF US ANYTIME SOOOON!
 
- Leanne started drawing Brian.
 
(Wow that was like…2 pages of highlights, and that is just what I FILMED!!!!)
 
Kay well then the cast members (Brian and another girl, I never found out her name) started warming up the crowd. That man is SO amusing. I’m not even joking. He was going on about how the kids need to keep the parents behind the blue line and was like “I know parents. Parents go: *starts tapping foot behind blue line* ‘Look at me, look what I’m doing, aaa-aaa-aaah!’ You gotta go ‘Nonono mom. Brian said no. Stop it. Kay?”
 
1, 2, 3 STRIKES YOUR OUT! TOUCHDOWNNNN! (Leanne will probably explain that better….it has to do with JTA and Fantasmic XD)
 
Ok that’s enough for JTA. But honestly, the madness kept going! It didn’t end until we finally left the area to go to Fantasyland. Where Brianna ran up to us! She informed us that she was going over to Peter Pan if we wanted to come, so we got to go through the handicapped entrance. I had never been on Peter Pan and I got to go on because of her. YAY HER!!!
 
Afterwards Brianna left to ‘let us do what we want’ (that’s what she said. We wanted to eat flowers, but then decided against it.) and we went over to Splash Mountain. We got a fast pass, and then went on single rider. I sat in the front and got SOAKED. It was great. Then it was about time for the second parade. So we went on the teacups! While waiting for the ride to start, Leanne looked up at the outside section of Alice in Wonderland.
 
Leanne: Hey look its Brianna. ….BRIANNA?!?!?!
 
Sure enough, Alice in Wonderland had broken down, and Brianna was sent to go through it, and we saw her walking on the leaves XD. We said that she could FLY!
 
So we watched the Gateway to Dreams showstop from the teacups, and I saw it was my favorite Peter (who I call Flirty Peter) working. When the float started to leave I waved to him, and he pointed at me, lipped something like “It’s you!” and winked. So when the ride was done I left Rachel and Leanne briefly to go wave to him again. We did the usual (I blow him a kiss, he catches it, smiles, lips ‘Why thank you!’, and then winks at me.) then I ran back and we went on the ride a few times. It was amazing when the Wonderland float stopped. After the showstop we tried to get Hatter’s attention.
 
Us: Hatterrrr…Haaaaaaaatterrrrr….Hatteeerrr
Flower: *waves at us and smiles*
Us: ….Flowerrr?
 
Then Hatter finally looked at us and stared at us and our hats.
 
Him: NIIICE HAAAAAAATS.
He sounded HALARIOUS.
 
Then after that we got on Storybook. We sat there and quoted a certain youtube video that shall remain nameless… Then we did stuff….we went on Pirates…we went on Thunder Mountain….we wandered aimlessly….went on Jungle Cruise…then we went and got on Splash Mountain. We got the first three spots. Haha Leanne got quite wet.
 
Then we caught the fireworks (Leanne and Rachel danced to it). I took pictures, then joined them and danced along. Then the fireworks ended and I sung along to Remember When, then we got spots for Fantasmic. Then there was….PRE FANTASMIC MADNESS! It wasn’t quite as great as the P-JTAM
 
Leanne watched a video she got from JTA, but we couldn’t hear what was being said over the music and talking, so she said what it looked like was going on (Where I got the 3 STRIKES YOUR OUT, TOUCHDOWNNNN!!! Thing from)
 
Then we suddenly started talking about Merlin being in JTA. I imagined them doing the show, and then the stage rises for Darth Vader to show up….and while its rising you see a purple thing. AND THERE’S MERLIN DOIN THE KNIGHTLY POSE, WITH VADER NOWHERE IN SIGHT!
 
Jedi instructor: Um…Merlin? Leave.
Merlin: AWWWW BUT….
JI: Go.
Merlin: FINE!
*stage goes down*
JI: …Right. There is now a REAL disturbance in the force…
*stage rises*
And there is a purple thing again….IT’S MERLIN WEARING THE FULL MERLIN OUTFIT, BUT WITH A DARTH VADER HELMET!!!!
JI: MERLIN!!!!
Merlin: AWW COME ON!
JI: LEAVE!
Merlin: FINE!!! *storms away*
 
It would so happen too.
 
After Fantasmic we went to Tomorrowland to get Leanne a light saber. My sister then called me to tell me she was there to pick me up. I left and went to downtown Disney (and got a pretzel, yay!), then went home. Quite an eventful day.
 
I didn’t take as many pictures as I usually do, but here’s the pictures: http://s4.photobucket.com/albums/y103/dreamer20k/Disneyland/7-2-08/

Ok look what we have here, it’s a trip report from the happiest place on earth! Oh my goodness, I bet you’re just dancing with excitement. It’s long. Don’t say you weren’t warned. June 22, 2008
 
This trip I had a little friend with me. Jamie the rubber duck. He’s a mummy duck XD. So we left at about 8 and drove down to Disneyland. Got there at about 8:45 and realized that we didn’t have anything planned…So we kinda just sat in Town Square and people watched. Bri and I got in a debate about whether she took a picture of a tree or of the Train Station. Then pitied the characters for some time, then sat there complaining about the heat. Aren’t we an exciting bunch?
 
Then all of a sudden, it got exciting. There was a green hat-like reflection on…something, and it was most certainly Hatter. And it appeared that they were going out to the entrance. So we went the opposite direction aaaaaand…they weren’t there…so we went back through the same way we went in (don’t even ask me why we didn’t think to go in the direction where we saw them…). Then we saw them over by the little store right by the bank. We wanted to walk over to him and tell him he confused us…but then we got distracted because he was shopping. So I sent Bri over to ask him to buy her a keychain…except it didn’t work.
 
Her: *walks over*
Him: Why, it’s a map! *turns to her* Look, it’s a map!
Her: Yes…it is.
Him: You have returned!
Her: Yes, I’ve missed you.
Him: Where were you? I was lonely.
Her: Exams.
Him: …XD Exams. Did you learn anything in your exams?
Me: That she completely murders her nails during exams.
Him: Aww poor nails.
 
Then he started complaining to the lady working at the store that there wasn’t enough merchandise with him on it. She said she had to tell Mickey about that. Then I made a big mistake…
 
Me: Over by Small World there’s a towel with you on it.
Him: A TOWEL?!
Me: Yes a towel.
Him: Like a beach towel?
Me: Sure.
Him: ALICE! THERE’S A TOWEL WITH ME ON IT!
Alice: *ignores him*
Him: I’ll need to go over there are buy that towel.
Little kid: *walks up to him*
Him: Why hello, did you know there’s a towel with me on it?
Kid: o_O
Me: XDDDDDD
So that went on for awhile, while we all (Bri, him, and me) tried to find something with him on it. We found a postcard of him, Alice, and the white rabbit in a tea cup, but he complained that it was far too old and needed to be updated. He said they needed to make it more like ‘his’ towel.
 
Him: They need to make it more like my towel, no Alice.
Me: Um…Alice IS on it.
Him: *glares* Well thanks for ruining it.
Me: Sorry!
Him: I just hope she’s not touching me. Bleh.
Bri: She’s touching you on here! *points at the post card*
Him: Yes, well we’ll just have to put a protective barrier there. *puts his finger between him and Alice, then puts it back*
 
Then he complained that there were no posters of him in the entrance tunnels. We said they should take out all the posters and replace them with posters of him. We then said they should call it HATTERLAND! Alice was sad though, because that meant taking out her poster. So once Hatter got out of earshot we told her that we’d keep her poster.
 
Then they ran through the entrance yelling for the white rabbit (and got distracted by the sign saying some attractions in fantasyland would close early). Then they went back through the OTHER tunnel, and just stood between the two entrances. Where Hatter received a parasol from Brianna (Not my Brianna, Bri-Chan/Briberry/Brianna Garcia) and then he gave them a breakfast order for eggs, bacon, pancakes with strawberries, and some other stuff. Then a cast member (named Geoff) walked over and stared at Bri and I, then looked at Hatter.
 
Geoff: Wait…so which one is the real one?
Me: We’re the real Mad Hatter. He’s the imposter.
Hatter: *GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHSP*
 
Then he walked over to us and got REALLY annoying.
 
Hatter: *casually takes Bri’s camera* Oooh look. It’s the Mad Hatter. Mad Hatter. Mad Hatter. Mad Hatter. Mad Hatter. Picture. Picture. Picture. Picture. Picture. Picture. Picture. Mad Hatter. Picture.
Me: *plugs ears* I have never been so annoyed in my life.
Hatter: Piiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiictuuuureeee.
 
I felt so bad for him right there, THAT is what he has to put up with *shakes head*. Well, then he took a picture of the both of us, and then demanded a picture with Bri. So he then TRIED to take a self picture of him and Bri, except he cut off half his face.
Bri: You cut off half of your face in your picture!
Him: That’s my better half.
Me: Does that make the other half not as good?
Him: No…that is my better BETTER half.
 
Oh and also some lady was looking at him for a few minutes then…
Her: Ok I give up. Who are you supposed to be?
 
His face…oh my gosh. It was HALARIOUS! It was a mix between: O_O o_O =O DX and XD.
 
Him: I’M THE MAD HATTER!!! WHO ARE YOUUUUUU SUPPOSED TO BE?!
 
XDDDDDDDDDD I love that man, but I can’t help but laugh at his misfortune when it comes to getting stupid guests. He’s a crazy man, in a hat, hanging out with Alice. Think Alice in Wonderland. Think people who wear giant hats. WHO ELSE WOULD HE BE?! So Bri and I stood there looking shocked, and I was trying desperately not to fall over laughing. I had to grab onto the railing to keep my balance. Best part though was when the lady walked away he looked at us like =O then rolled his eyes while sighing dramatically. Greatness.
 
Then they wandered over to where they were before and Hatter learned Spanish from the flowers. He then said he was unloved because all of the kids were going to Alice, so Bri ran over and gave him a hug. He then started talking to her about something, and then he looked over at me and started whispering. So I ran over to them.
 
Me: *whispers* What you talking bout? I want in.
Him: Nothing. Whisper whisper.
Me: I can do that too! *leans over to Bri* Alice is prettier than the Mad Hatter
Him: *GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHSP*
 
Bri later said she had NO idea what he was talking about. He was just rambling on about something. Then he planned out some girl’s trip (revolved around him. Going on the teacups and seeing her breakfast for a second time, watching the parade, going on the teacups and seeing her lunch for a second time, watching the second parade, and watching fantasmic), then started leaning over more and more…
                                        
Me: What are you learning now?
Him: I’m learning how to try to see the clock.
Me: *points at Bri* She has a clock.
Him: Ooh. WHATS THE TIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIME!?
Her: It is…..9:36.
Him: EEEP! *Aka, really ‘manly’ squeal*
Me: ……….Very manly today.
Him: I know. I try.
 
Then he danced a bit, sung a bit, told us how old he is (which was a really long math problem that I just rounded to 33) then told Alice he wanted tea and they had to leave. So he started yelling “NO ROOM NO ROOM! NO ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!” then they left. At this point we just decided to wait for the entrance show while sitting in the tunnel. So after awhile the band comes along…with no Hatter. So we just go out and watch the show, and he comes running out of no where.
 
Me: *points at him* YOU’RE LATE!
Him: SAYS WHO!? *acts like he’s been there the entire time*
 
So they did the usual thing…except wandering around the ENTIRE entrance area. He didn’t pull us up to dance this time. Told us we could dance, but didn’t make us dance. Then while Bri sat next to him I was at the side taking pictures. I look over at Hatter and he’s making “I’m watching you.” signs at me o_O. So I do it back at him, and we stare at each other for a bit, then he turned to Bri and I started to take pictures again. Bri later told me that when he turned to her she said that he and I are watching each other, and he said “I feel dirty!” O_O BAD HATTER! FAMILY THEME PARK! NO COOKIES FOR YOU. BAD SQUISHY! BAD SQUISHY! NO. (Couldn’t resist that last bit)
 
*ahem* So then a bit later they ran off, and we watched a bit of the spoon in the stone ceremony. Then Bri got a spot for the castle show, and I decided to hang out in the back. Where I saw Hatter steal a broom and dust pan and then started sweeping up trash. Now that is good Hatter. Have a cookie. You’re a good Squishy. (The temptation is IMPOSSIBLE to resist.)
 
Then after the castle show we watched the spoon in the ceremony. I can’t really remember it that well. The only thing I remember is me being the only person who cheered when he fixed the magic twig, which then started a small line of clapping.
 
Merlin: Why THANK YOU Miss Mad Hattress. You started a miniature wave of applause that stopped half way…*glares at people who stopped the wave of applause until they clap*
 
Weird thing…I wasn’t even wearing my hat at the time…o_O. Haha whatever. After the ceremony I went over to hang out with Bri (who was hiding in the shade while I got pictures), Leanne, and Brianna. Somehow it got to the subject on how I appeared to scare Brianna.
 
Me: I think I scared Brianna…
Leanne: You scare everyone.
Me: …..*throws arms in the air* WHOO!
Merlin: *suddenly over by us* WHOO! ….Awkward dinosaur. 
 
…Weirdo. We then decided to ask Merlin if he was related to Santa, cause he brings joy and inspiration to the children of the world. He said that Santa brings TOYS, he brings pain and destruction, but then remembered that that was Madame Mim. He then decided that he brings carpet bags to the children of the world, and Brianna asked if stole that from Mary Poppins. We then decided that he actually IS Mary Poppins. (I got all this on video).
 
Well we then saw Wendy, and just kinda stood there looking at her for a bit. Bri and I started making fun of Hatter’s “Mad Hatter. Mad Hatter. Picture. Picture.” thing, and Brianna thought we were saying “Wendy, Wendy, Wendy! Picture, picture picture!” Eh whatever… Then the four of us decided to go over to the tea cups and wait for Hatter and Alice. After awhile of waiting I got bored and pulled out Jamie and started playing with him. When Brianna found out that his name was Jamie, she tried to convince me to give him to Peter Pan, because he would find it REALLY funny. I said that I couldn’t, because I had grown far too attached to him to give him away.
 
Well after awhile Hatter and Alice showed up, and Hatter seriously SCARED me. I’m sitting there, and I look over, and he is right there. I jumped (well the best that I could while sitting on the ground), screamed, then started cracking up. Then Hatter came over and played duck duck goose since Bri and I were sitting on the ground, Brianna was sitting on the wall (which was actually pretty funny cause I look at her one second and she’s standing next to me, and a second later she’s sitting cross-legged on the wall o_O spider-girl…), and Leanne was just kinda standing there… Well Bri asked if she could be a turtle, so it went from ‘duck duck goose’ to ‘whatever Hatter calls you’. This is how it ended up:
Bri = Turtle
Leanne = Penguin
Brianna = Mongoose
And I was a turtle dove (much to Leanne and Alax’s future amusement…)
But Bri asked if she could be a bread and butterfly, which Hatter claimed was taken by some random guy standing way off in the distance, and then the game ended. AND THE MEET AND GREET MADNESS STARTED!
 
Highlights:
- Me shining my awesome laser pointer on Hatter. Seriously, I should NOT have a laser pointer. I shined it on his hands while he was signing something, and he FROZE. Then he tried to shake it off, and it just moved to his chest. So he looked at us all slowly. So I turned it off and hid it and just stared at him.
 
Hatter: *gets to me* It was you…wasn’t it?
Me: *GASP* ME?! Nononononono! It was HER! *points at Bri*
Bri: ME?! No, it was ALICE!
Alice: ME?!
Hatter: I highly doubt that.
Me: YOU’RE NOT BLAMING ALICE?!?!?! O_O Wowww..
 
- Hatter taking some kid’s autograph book and drawing a picture of Alice. I believe he gave her fangs.
 
- Brianna showing Hatter a picture she drew of Alice and him assuming it was supposed to be of him. (It was a great drawing by the way.)
 
- Hatter yelling “THERE’S CROCODILES ON YOUR FEEEEEEEEEEEET!” when a kid wearing crocs came up to him. They then started singing “Never Smile at a Crocodile” I swear, Hatter started singing 4 Minutes. Yes, the Madonna and Justin Timberlake song. Maybe he didn’t though. I’m leaning more towards he didn’t, though it did sound like it.
 
- Alice started singing Winnie the Pooh. But Hatter changed it into Alice the Pooh or something. She’s stuffed with PETTICOATS. (They confuse me too, don’t worry.)
 
- When I shined my laser pointer at Hatter again he tried to eat it.
 
- Leanne kept stealing my hat. The first time he saw this, it made Hatter happy. Then I informed him that she had stolen my hat, and then he was no longer happy.
 
- We said that Hatter was ‘hippy’. He misunderstood this…like REALLY misunderstood this. He stared at us wide eyed, then put a hand on his hip and pouted and said, “You’re calling me HIPPY?” We were laughing too hard to inform him he misunderstood us.
 
- Hatter started a silent game…no idea why. After awhile, I became SHOCKED to learn that he could be quiet for more than 10 seconds. But then he seriously WOULD NOT talk.
Me: Ok this is seriously freaking me out now. Quick, make him talk. Insult tea…or his hat. Or something.
Hatter: *pouts but says nothing*
Then after a bit more silence
Alice and a little girl: *walk up to Hatter* Ahem…..*yelling* HAPPY BIRTHDAYYYYYYY!
Hatter: NEHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH [/whiney]
 
- My laser pointer stopped working right before they left. So I was sitting cross-legged on the ground staring at it, pushing the button. I then turned it with the laser part pointed at me, but I didn’t turn it on. As they walked past Hatter said “Careful, you’ll laser your eye out doing that.” That scared me and I actually did turn it on. It got it working again, and thank goodness it didn’t shine in my eyes.
 
- Hatter YELLING at Alice to hurry up and come along when Brianna and him walked away and she lagged behind.
 
Then the three of us (Brianna had run away with Hatter) went to get something to eat. We originally went to the Village Haus, but there was no inside seating, so we went to Pizza Port. Leanne and I had issues with the lemonade…it didn’t taste like lemonade. Then when I went to eat, I suddenly became not hungry. So I ate a bit of my pizza, and then ignored it. Bri then started to put her spaghetti and some ice all over it, which made me feel sick (I hate when I see food like that, it makes me feel really sick. Like when I see my cousin dip his potato chips in ketchup, or once when Bri dipped her cookie in cheese. I can’t handle it.)
 
Then we went over to coke corner to watch Musical Chairs. Brianna strolled along after awhile, and complained that her parasol broke. We told her to bring it to Merlin, cause he would fix it. She was like “*scoff* HIM? That man can’t fix ANYTHING.” Then she hid at her own table and started drawing. We (more like I) tried desperately to sneakily get a peak of what she was drawing. She later showed us what it was…not sure if I’m allowed to say what it was though. I’ll just say one was of Hatter, and the other was of Merlin and Hatter. Really good stuff, I hope she uploads it (serious wink wink nudge nudge if she happens to read this)
 
Then musical chairs started. It seemed to go by surprisingly fast. I don’t really remember it that well.
 
Highlights:
 
- When Robert played Casey Jr. Hatter decided to play a bit. He looked so nervous about it.
 
- When four or five kids were left, there was one kid without a hat. Hatter asked him if he believed he was at a disadvantage.
 
- The Queen of Hearts appearing out of NO WHERE.
 
- The Tweedles later appearing…out of NO WHERE.
 
The Meet and Great afterwards was a bit more memorable.
 
Highlights from that:
 
- The Queen just in the background hitting keys on the piano. The music started to sound quite odd…
 
- A bug landed on Brianna’s hand. She showed it to Hatter. He then said “His name is Ted. Which is short for Teddy. Which is short for Theodore.” ……….Yeah I’m not sure either.
 
- Me constantly squeaking Jamie, trying to get Hatter’s attention. I then gave it to Leanne and told her to throw it at him. She didn’t. But after awhile a squeak finally got Hatter’s attention.
 
Jamie: Squeak squeak
Hatter: *looks at me confused* What was that?
Me: Nothing.
Hatter: Nothing? Nothing at all?
Me: Nope.
Jamie: Squeak.
Hatter: *stares at Jamie* It’s a DUCK. QUACK. QUACK.
Jamie: Squeak.
 
- A little girl who had seen the Hatter on a Disney cruise started talking to Hatter. He asked her if she got sea sick, and he said he didn’t because he put Dramamine in his tea. Hehe.
 
Us: *gasp* Were you drugging yourself on the cruise?
Hatter: *GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHSP* I have never been AAACUUUUUUSED of such at thing!
Me: Bad Hatter.
 
- The above then turned into a confusing conversation centered around Jamie.
 
Me: Jamie doesn't like you anymore.
Hatter: Jamie?
Me: The rubber duck.
Hatter: WHAT KIND OF NAME IS JAMIE FOR A DUCK?
Me: A perfectly fine name!
Hatter: Yeah sure.
Me: Well you're not Jamie's favorite Disney character anymore!
Hatter: Well you're not Jamie's favorite owner anymore!
Me:...He has more than one owner? Who's his other owner?
Hatter: …………..*walks away*
Me: ......??? Like…joint partnership or something?
 
- Leanne gave Hatter a flower. Hatter then started talking to it, and it insulted Alice. He then put it in his hair. It made him look oh so gorgeous.
 
- Alice told Hatter they had to leave to get ready for the parade.
Hatter: *crosses arms* I don’t want to! [He so loves us and doesn’t want to leave us]
Alice: But I need to put on my sparkly dress!
Hatter: But I don’t have anything sparkly to put on!
Me: Just put on Alice’s dress!
Hatter: ….What?!
Me: Just take Alice’s dress.
Hatter: I don’t think I’d look very good in it….she hardly does herself.
 
They then scurried off and Hatter told us he expected to see us in the parade….FORGET LISTENING TO HATTER! We decided to skip the parade and do splash single rider. So we went on a couple times, and then went to see the spoon in the stone ceremony. BUT. FIRST. Leanne and Bri had to sing about to Wizard of Bermuda (Merlin).
 
So they went over by his backstage area and hid. Obviously they are AWFUL at hiding. I sat outside the Village Haus with my camera filming. I had my sunglasses on, hair over my face, and my camera down on the table and I was pushing buttons like I was looking through pictures. Well Mistah Merlin must have caught on or SOMETHIN.
 
Merlin: *Walking past me* Oh you think you’re sooo slick, aren’t you.
Me: Whaa?
Merlin: Ohhh yesss. I see.
 
And he was walking REALLY fast. He must have known we were up to something. So we ran after him, me still filming. Bri and Leanne then skipped past him singing “We’re off to see the Wizard, the wonderful Wizard of Bermuda.”. Merlin seemed to not be surprised, as he just looked at them and kept walking. He’s just a grumpy old man with no sense of humor. [/total-lie] Oh and on the video it just looks like two girls randomly skipping by Merlin…
 
Then the ceremony started.
 
Um…go to Leanne’s trip report. She’ll have highlights.
 
After the ceremony we had a lot of questions to ask him…which actually started with us having no questions to ask him.
Merlin: What is your question now?
Me: I don’t think we’ve decided on one yet.
Merlin: *does a strange half cough half laugh thing* Oh well I’m glad you’ve decided so.
Me: Let’s see, we asked you why you wear a purple dress.
Merlin: *looks at me strangely*
Me: What’s with the underwear…
Merlin: Oh dear me….
Me: What’s with….Santa
Merlin: …*points to some random guy* Maybe he has a question. Yes sir?
Guy: Nothing.
Merlin: No? Maybe mom has something.
 
This went on until Leanne’s mom asked him his age, and he said a true wizard never reveals his age…or a lady (and I struggled to say SOMETHING, which came out as a big glob of nonsense). Then we asked him if he ever thought of braiding his beard and it became madness from there. He informed us that he’s not a Viking, so of course he doesn’t braid his beard. I then remarked that he could just take fashion tips from Dumbledore, cause Dumbledore braids his beard and wears sparkly dresses, and Merlin wears a purple dress so it all matches up.
 
Merlin: Nonono! I wear a purple ROBE.
Me: Dress.
Merlin: Rooooobah
Me: Dressss. Dress.
Merlin: R………….O…………..B…………E….
Me: D-R-E-S-wait….
Everyone: ……*starts laughing at me*
Me: WAIT YES. D-R-E-S-S. I THOUGHT I STARTED IT WITH A T.
Merlin: No spelling bees for you!
Me: And I’m fine with that.
Merlin: Or spelling ANTS. Or any sort of insect.
Me: What about spelling beetles?
Merlin: …….That’ll be alright.
 
BUT NO WE WEREN’T DONE! Bri asked him if he was a fashion model, and he said he wasn’t because he didn’t have a runway, he just has a sword in the stone. We said that he could use the area around it as a runway, but he said it wouldn’t work because planes don’t land there. I said he could just use the LAX runway, and then we imagined a security call of “Um…security. There is a man in a purple dress on the runway.” Then we asked him why he’s not in Fantasmic, and he said he is, he swims underwater and saves the ducks. I was amazed that he not only flies about the parade floats, but also swims under fantasmic. He said he does triathlons. We asked if he swims in the dress, and he asked what else he would swim in. We asked if he also swims in the hat, and he says he does. Then we finally let him go with a “Bye Merlini” ….but somehow we managed to distract him again.
 
Me: Bye Wizard of Bermuda.
Merlin: *mishears me* YODA?!
Us: HAHAHA XD
 
THEN we let him go, and Leanne left too. Bri and I somehow ended up over by the first aid and as we left the cutest little girl came up to us. She was probably 7.
Her: Excuse me, what is that? *points at first aid*
Me: First aid.
Her: ….What’s that?
Me: If you get hurt you go there and they fix you up.
Her: Oh right!
 
….Riiiight. She was adorable though, so we let it go. We then did Splash single rider one last time. I got the first row and got S-O-A-K-E-D. We then ran over by Small World and watched the parade. We actually decided to skip the Wonderland float and watched the first three floats. But then the Wonderland float came past. It was a new Hatter, and the usual Alice.
 
Hatter: Oh I love your hat! *hops over to Alice* Don’t you just LOVE her hat?
Alice: :O NO! IT’S DREADFUL!
 
We then had a strange pouting fight. XD I love that girl, even though we mess with each other. After the parade we went into Toontown and had fun with Minnie’s well trying to set it off. I got all of this on video. Hehe. Then we rode the train for awhile, and went to coke corner and got some dinner and listened to Robert. We then just decided to head over to New Orleans Square and get spots for Fantasmic (it was about 8:45 at the time.) We LOVED Fantasmic. I got to sing along to the music. I love that music so much. We then ran over to the back side of the castle and watched the fireworks. Afterwards we took a quick spin on the teacups (I got some great pictures of it all lit up), then left at about 10:00.
 
I know I’m missing a lot of stuff, but it was such a long day. Thirteen hours! I have blisters to prove it was a long day. Oh, and a sunburn that itches like HELL right now. It was still a lot of fun though. I mean, I got to hang out with two great friends of mine, saw my favorite Hatter and got to mess with him a little, saw my favorite Merlin and got to mess with him a lot, got to meet my favorite artist. It was a ton of fun.
 
And I warned you that this Trip Report would be long.

WHEN HATTERS ATTACK. - Trip Report May 18

  • May. 31st, 2008 at 12:50 PM
myalice
Also known as "Merlin is a blimp"

(The reason these are coming so late is because of school. I swear, when summer comes they'll come faster)   

On Sunday I made another trip to the happiest place on earth! And once again, I was with Bri. We were going for her birthday, since it was Saturday.
We got to the park at about 9:00, and were going to go to city hall to get her a birthday pin. Well first of all, there were a lot of people lined up coming out of city hall. So we got in line, and I noticed someone standing by there.
Me: Well well well, look who it is.
Bri: Who?
Me: Who do you think?
Bri: OH! Where?
Me: Over there.
Bri: Where?
Me: Oh come on! Look. For. The. Orange. Thing.
I swear, if I have to refer to him as the orange thing one more time...It's not like he's easy to miss. LOOK FOR THE BRIGHT ORANGE THING, AND THE GREEN THING TOWERING ABOVE THE CROWD. You got Mistah Hatter right there.
*ahem*
Oh, and it was the same Hatter as last time. Mistah Squishy again. So since we missed our chance last time, we decided to get a picture with them. So we're standing in line to get a picture, and I look up and see that he's looking at us. So I look down. Look back up a bit later and he's looking at us again.
Bri: *whispers* I think he keeps looking at us..
Me: *through clenched teeth* I know...I've noticed this.
So after awhile, and him looking at us several times (it actually started to get slightly creepy after awhile...reminds me of that one song. Ya know "I always feel like somebody's watching me!") we got up to get the picture with him.
Hatter: You're back!
Alice: IMPOSTERS! :)
Hatter: It looks better on me!
Me: ...Can't argue with that.
Hatter: *points at Bri's pin* I'm on her pin!
Alice: So am I, Mr Hatter.
Hatter: They like me better!
Bri: Aww, we love Alice too though!
Hatter: ...*pout* But you love me more, ...right?
Me: I...uh...um...
Alice: Oh, it's alright.
Bri: Maybe just a little.
Me: *still uhhhh-ing*
Like I said in the last trip report, I don't do that well under pressure. Questions like that = pressure to me. I no like.
So we got our pictures with them, then we got Bri her birthday pin. So after we got it, we went to where the tape used to be *a moment of silence for the tape................ok* and made friends with a little worm. I named him Henry! After quite awhile, we had to leave Henry to see the entrance show. Where...DISASTER struck for the first time.
So they're all daaaaaaancing, and I'm fiiiiiilming. Just minding my own buisness, WHEN HATTER ATTACKED ME!!!! I was just being innocent ol' me, not doing anything to anyone. Then he LEPT at me like a young gazelle, and tried to force me to dance! He was all like "*YANK* DANCE! YOU SHALL DANCE! MWHAHAHAHAHA!!!" and I was being attacked, so all I could was run away! Oh it was horrible.
...
...
...That's how it happened...honest...
...
...FINE!! YOU WIN!! Thiiis is how it happened.
Like I said, I was filming and they were dancing. When they came paast us, he came over to us and tried to get us to dance. Bri went with him and I stepped back. So he grabbed by hand and tried to pull me up, but I stepped back again and he gave up...at least for a while. Oh, and he hatzed Bri...twice. XD
So after they left we just kinda did nothing but wander until 11:00, when we went to see the castle show...where DISASTER struck the second time!!
So the castle show was going as normal. Singing, dancing, and Hatter and Alice interupted the show. Nothing especially exciting until...
Hatter: Now how many of you are celebrating your unbirthday today?
Me: *without noticing raises hand slightly*
Hatter: *notices me* :D *points at me* Oh it's your unbirthday? *walks over to me*
Me: Gah shah! *hides behind Bri*
Hatter: Good thing she has a birthday pin. Come along, it's your unbirthday!
Me: *hidey*
Hatter: *yanky*
Me: *no come-y*
Hatter: *pout* Oh alright! *walks away*
Everyone else: HAHAHAHAHAHAHA *Stare*
Me: Goshhhh
Bri: Why won't you dance with him?
Me: I dont want tooooo...what IS IT with him?......I think I got that on film
Publicly embarressed by the Mad flippin Hatter! What is it with him? GOSH! He is SET on trying to get me to dance, and I don't get it. (SHUT UP LEANNE/ALAX. NO ONE ASKED WHAT YOU THINK!)
After the castle show, and a quick ride on Pinocchio (HE STILL HASN'T SAID "I'M SO HIPPY!") we watched the Spoon in the Stone ceremony with MISTAH MERLIN! (Inside joke, don't ask) A bit into it, Jenni popped up. We had a tad bit of a problem when he gave "The Disappointment" his prize.
Me: *whispers* I always want him to say 'You get to put away all the chairs!'
Jenni: THAT WOULD BE AMAZAZING!!!!
Merlin: And that iiiiiiiiiis...
Jenni: YOU GET TO PU-
Me: GAH! *Tackle* *covers her mouth* SHUT!
*shakes head* I am such a bad influence. Well we promised Mistah Merlin a frozen strawberry lemonade (Which will come up later), then parted ways. Bri and I ate at the Village Haus, then...I have no idea what happened. Honestly, we didnt even do anything for three hours! We just wandered around until 2:30, when we went over to Coke Corner, even though we knew there would be no Musical Chairs that day.
When we got there I saw Leanne's mom, but no Leanne. And Leanne's hat and drawing pad were on their table. Hehe..
Me: *runs over* You didn't see me! *takes stuff*
Her mom: ...Riiiight
So I had the stuff sitting on the table, and when Leanne came over I put it on the back of the chair and sat down. Then she came and sat with us and we were chaotic. Oh, and then I remembered.
Me: Oh...um...have you seen Hatter yet?
Her: ...No?
Me: Oh...well let's just say there probably won't be musical chairs today.
Her: ....O_O You...
Me: Yep.
Her: He...
Me: Yep.
Her: ...*bangs head on table and has a mental breakdown*
Heh...well she even came that day and missed him. Poor girl.
After awhile I saw Aladdin and Jasmine coming from the backstage area across from Coke Corner (not the one in that area)
Me: Hey look it's Aladdin and Jasmine
Leanne: *head flies up* WHERE?
So they come walking past, say hello to us...AND GO TO THE BACKSTAGE BEHIND US??!?
Me: ...WHAT?
Leanne: Whut just happened?
Me: They were...backstage...then went...backstage? What was the point in that?!
Bri: Maybe they like that backstage!
Me: Whatever.
Strange...well Lizzie, SAPM, and Jenni later showed up. I honestly think its more chaotic when there is no musical chairs. Oh, and after some time, guess who showed? Nope, not Hatter. Nope, not Alice. ALADDIN AND JASMINE. They walked out of the backstage behind us and where did they go? THE OTHER BACKSTAGE. *headdesk*
Well I'd tell you what went on, but you really just need to see it. Leanne has it on video. So quick. Everyone harrass Leanne. Make her upload it.
XD
Well after awhile we left the area to get a spot for the parade. The ground was like hot firey death. Not even joking. So we waited for the parade, minding our own buisness when all of a sudden...we hear "Excuse me ladies, can I get through?" and we all turn around and SAPM is RIGHT THERE. It was kinda scary. So we let him through. Then we decided that if he came back we would form a wall and make him watch the parade with us. Muwahaha! We're so evil
So we watched the parade. Ursula's face was frozen in the funniest position. It was amazing. (There are pictures of it on my photobucket. Go look!) And strangly enough, SQUISHY WASN'T DOING PARADE. We were all like "WHO IS THIS PERSON?" He was pretty cool though. But at the end he got distracted and the float started moving. So he had to leap on the float, and tripped. He ran into Alice. Didn't knock her over and fall on top of her though. *sigh* There's always next time.
After the parade Bri, Leanne, and I went on Pinocchio. HE STILL HASN'T SAID "I'm so hippy!". Then we waited for the spoon in the stone ceremony.
Us: ....
Me: Hey, lets go buy a frozen lemonade!
Bri: To taunt Merlin?
Me: YEP!
So we bought our lemonade and waited patiently. Then I see this strange purple thing coming.
Me: Oh there he is.
So we started to eat the lemonade really slowly.
Merlin: So 3 Mad Hatter's walk into the Sword in the Stone...
Me: Hey Merlin, want some? *offers him frozen lemonade*
Merlin: ...Oh! Why thank you but i've already had my fill today!
You see, I went over by the Jedi Training Academy, found their cloning machine, and cloned a bunch of those.
Us: AWESOME!!
Merlin: So i've been doing pretty well for myself.
Me: IMAGINE LIKE 50 BILLION OF THOSE! Ok we better go now, or else he'll hit us with his bag.
-head over to the front to watch-
Highlights (Totally stolen from Leanne):
- *rod starts jiggling around* This has never happened before in my life. I don't know what to do. (just the way he said it, lol)
-Yes you sir in the green, trying to hide behind the three hattresses. (Leanne, Bri, and me)
- Merlin: Don't worry,I see you're scared.
*guy goes off to pull the sword out*
Merlin: -hold him back- nonononono.
-Merlin: Look at your lady friend, she's laughing at you! Look at these complete strangers, they're laughing at you too!! Does this normally happen, you just walk down the street and people point and laugh?
*I point and laugh at him*
-*rod fails*
Merlin: Sir Andrew, you know what I did wrong?
*Sir Andrew says something*
Merlin: No, it's not the wrong direction, what good would that do me? A two for one special? I'M NOT WAL*MART!!
-*merlin fixes his magic twig/rod*
Merlin: there i fixed it.
Us: YEAH! WOO!!
Merlin: Thank you my dears, you are the only ones! The rest of you, what happened? -glares-
-Merlin: well go ahead, pose!
*guy stands there*
Merlin: something a little less Abercrombie.
-puts hands on hips-
Merlin: ....why are you trying to be Peter Pan?
*guy laughs*
Merlin: let me help you...
*guy goes for another pose, but Merlin stops him*
Merlin: nononono, i'll help you, i'll help you...
-Beauuuty and the Beeaasst....(The temporary ruler was dressed as Belle XD)
So after the show we decided to ask Merlin a few questions. So we walked over to where he was being mobbed by people. After awhile we finally got to ask him.
Leanne: Can I ask you a quick question? *jump*
Merlin: Yes! *jump*
Leanne: Why are you wearing a purple dress?
Merlin: ........It is not a purple dress.
Bri: I think it's a lovely purple dress!
Merlin: Why thank y-wait NONONO! IT'S A ROBE! IT'S NOT A DRESS IT'S A ROBE!!!
XD
Oh but that wasn't all.
Merlin: *while looking for an example of a dress* *points out a little girl dressed as Tinkerbell* THAT is a dress. And I would look silly in it. And I think Tinkerbell would be upset if she saw me in that.
Me: I'd like to see you with wings. That would be pretty funny.
Merlin: With wings?
Me: With wings, just flying.
Merlin: I just lift off with my feet, why would I need wings?
Bri: You have wings on your feet?
Merlin: No not wi-I am not HERMES! 
Then someone stole him for a picture....but WE WEREN'T DONE! 
*After pictures*
Me: We have one more question for you
Merlin: *sigh* Ohhh alright, what is it?
Me: Why aren't you in the Parade of Dreams (Meaning like always in it)
Merlin: Well OCCASIONALLY I am. But you see, apparently, I'm much to magical for the opening float! They were going to give me my own float until King Arthur couldn't make it. He didn't sign off his approval for it.
Bri: You should fly above the floats!
Merlin: ABOVE the floats? 
Bri: Yeah, with the wings on your feet.
Merlin: What, like a blimp? Oh dear, I see where this conversation is going. *tries to leave*
Some lady: Can I get your picture?
Merlin: NEHHH! Oh alright 
Then after the picture he tried to leave buuuuuuuuuuut....
Merlin: Enjoy your day.
Me: Fly away Merlin! Fly away!
Bri: Fly with the wings on your feet!
Merlin: *looks up at the sky like 'Lord, why me?' then walks away*
*sigh* goood times. I got that on video.

Well then Leanne left and Bri and I did absolutly nothing until the second parade, when we saw the strange unknown Hatter again. He's a pretty good dancer. Then after the parade we went home.

*sigh* Such a fun trip! BUT I MISS MUSICAL CHAIRS! I love Squishy, he just needs to either learn Musical Chairs, or stick to the parade!

Just wanted to say that my next trip report will be  coming soon. I got a bit delayed on it. Sorray!

Trip Report - April 27

  • May. 20th, 2008 at 8:08 PM
myalice
Here it is, absurdly late! Trip report from April 27. Sorry bout the lateness. School.


Well I got to go back to Disneyland. I went with Brianna, like I've done several times. Going with her is fun. Completely unpredictable.

So we got to the park at 9:55. My sister was going to hang out with us for a few hours, but she started to feel sick so she dropped us off by downtown disney. So we had to walk through DD to get to the park. We got into the entrance I saw the band and Hatter and Alice. Such a great way to start the day.
Me: I spy with my little eye something tall and orange.
Bri: OOOH YAY!!! *jumpy*
As we got in, I got quite confused when I saw Hatter.
Me: *thinking* Wait...Reggie? But she said he already le- WAIT! Squuiiiiiishyyy.....
[AKA my favorite parade Hatter. His nickname is actually Hyper Hatter, but I call him Squishy. "I want to be a good squishy" AWWWWWWW]

So I whipped out my camera to get pictures of him. After dancing for a bit, he saw us. Then he came over to us.
Hatter: You come here quote often now, don't you?
Me: *Thinking* Wait he remembers me?! *talking* Um...yeah!
Hatter: Are you going to watch the parade later? Oh, of course you will! Why would you miss it?
Bri: We wouldn't!
Me: How could we? It's the best part of the day!
They they danced with the dads (He has an amazing solo). After, the band started playing the Indiana Jones theme song. So Hatter and Alice reenacted a scene from it. It ended with her falling on the ground, and him telling her she makes a wonderful boulder. Hehe.
indy
Then they came over and asked us why we didn't dance with them. To put it lightly...I froze. Oh, and of course, Miss Brianna wasn't paying attention! SHE KNOWS I DONT DO WELL UNDER THAT SORTA PRESSURE.
I stuttered and tried to think of something to say that would show I actually have a brain. I fiddled with my camera a bit, shrugged, and said the only thing a teenager's mind could get in that situation.
Me: I dunno...
Hatter accepted that answer and walked off. Alice shrugged and ran off after Hatter. I got off the ho-o-o-ok! So they continued hanging out with guests for a little bit, then skipped off.
So we headed to Tomorrowland. Bri wanted a necklace like mine with the little teacup. She is SUCH a copycat! I like Hatter, then she starts to like him. I get the hat, she gets the hat. I get the necklace, she gets the necklace. So we get her the necklace. Then we thought about going on Astro Blasters and saying hi to Chuck (x26) and Reggie [AKA picture or the little green aliens in the queue area]. But we ended up going on Star Tours twice. I succeded at acting like a total nerd and mouthed the entire thing. I love that ride. Oh, and sometime around there, we found a little jedi mickey. So we named it Brian Kyle, or Kyle Brian. I can't remember which. Kyle = a friend of ours who loves Star Wars. Brian = I believe Brianna Garcia's friend. There are some pictures of him in the JTA section of her picturs. We decided "Kyle" wasn't enough, and Kyle Sarah (Sarah being my friend who loves SW) sounds strange. So we went with Brian!
So after wandering aimlessly, we decided to go over to the castle show, even though we were 10 minutes early. We watched the show, and after waving bye to the characters we went to Fantasyland.
We were going to watch the Spoon Sword in the Stone ceremony, but we were early. So we decided to go on Pinocchio, and ended up going on it three times. Not once did he say "I'm so hippy!". Then we went on Snow White, which freaked us out. How do little kids go on that ride?!
Then we got tired of going on those rides, so we walked over to the sword.
Me: We are looking for an old man in a purple dress.
Bri: Yes...yes we are!
Me: How great would it be if he was behind me when I said that? I would be like 'We're looking for the man in the purple dress' and he'd be all like 'EXCUSE ME?!!??!?!' Then he'd use his magic fingahs and BLAST me away!!!!!!
Sadly though, the show got canceled. So we stormed off saying that we weren't 'hippy' and that Dumbledore is better than him.
So we wandered for a big, doing pretty much nothing. So lets fast foreward to 1:00 *ZZZZZZZLAFJSLFJ;ZZZKLAFKFJASDFJZZZZ!!!!!!*
We went on the tea cups (LOVE CUPPPP!) and both had out hats pulled down over our faces. I decided to "Hatter watch" so I started looking around for him (with my hat up now)
Me: *points at sign* FOUND HIM!
Bri: WHERE!
Me: OVER THERE!
Bri: *takes off hat* I don't see him.
Me: THERE! *points at sign*
Bri: Um...
Me: THE SIGN!
Bri: Oh
Then after the tea cups we walked around, and I actually did see him! So Bri and I, being all sneaky, walked past them while laughing. He saw us and said hello. So we watched them as they ran off. Apparently he said something strange to her, because she started laughing, then started dancing, and he started walking quite strangely. Hm.
Well we didn't really do anything until 2:15 except see a billion *cough*9*cough* characters. But at 2:15 we headed over to coke corner. After awhile SAPM strolled along.
Me: *whispery singing* Secret Agent p'ano man. Secret agent p'a-
Robert: *looks over at us*
Me: Shutting up.
So we waited...and waited...and waited...and waited some more. Then Alice came!!! ...But no Hatter... Well she started talking to some kids and dancing with them. After awhile she came over to us.
Alice: You two are still wearing those hats?
Bri: Of course!
Alice: Oh, well Mr. Hatter can't make it. He went back to Wonderland to have his afternoon tea before the parade.
Us: Oh...
Alice: But he should be back for the parade. I'm sure he'll be done by then.
So there was no musical chairs that day. But Alice hung around. She danced with the little kids. SAPM sang to/about Alice too. Dang, he has a really good voice. I never noticed!
So we watched the parade. Hatter made a little heart with his hands for us. I got it on video! WATCH THE VIDEO OR I SHALL KILL YOUZZZZ! (Just kidding). Oh, and Bri and I blew him kisses at the same time, just to see what he'd do. He caught them and combined them, and put them in his pocket. Have I mentioned yet that that man is adorable?

\Well lets just go foreward to the second parade, since I dont remember much in between the two. So while waiting for the second parade we got super confused because we heard a different song. After awhile I realized it was those lucky Dream Suite winners. I hate them. A lot. Lyk srsly.
Well then the second parade started. We got the Gateway to Dreams stop. The Peter we alawys see cracks me up. He's easily distracted. I, however am n-WOAH WHAT WAS THAT?!
*ahem*
So we waited for the Wonderland float. Hatter saw us and waved and smiled at us like usual. And Alice got annoted like usual. *sigh* She just doesn't like me. Not at all. [Just kidding, I bet she has no problem with me.]
Well we decided to fallow the float to the end...just cause we can. So we went around to the teacups, where I was TOLD the float stopped, only to be greeted by ARIEL! So we decided to watch the Pinocchio float. I've always wanted to watch that one. Afterwards we went up to that area across from Small World thats high up. So we said bye to Hatter and Alice, and he posed for my camera like usua;. But it was a different pose. It was the best Hatter picture EVER! It's my phone wallpaper now :)


Like I said, adorable!

So we went to coke corner to listen to SAPM while waiting to be picked up. On the way we saw ELVIS! *shudder* Creepy. Well we went in the building by it that the name of escapes me at the moment. And I was going to say to Bri "Robert is Secret Agent Piano Man", and Bri was reading some weird game thing. This is how it came out:
Me: Robert is -
Bri: Sexy?
Me: ...BWHAHA! XD XD XD WHAT?!?!?!?!?!?!
Bri: Huh? What'd I say?
Well after that misunderstanding, we sat down and listened to him play piano. He kept looking at us...SAPM is watching us! AHH!
Not long after we got picked up and went home. Thus ended our trip in the happiest day on earth!

Trip report from the 18th will hopefully be up soon!

Trip Report!

  • Apr. 16th, 2008 at 11:04 PM
myalice
To all those who left Orange County this weekend, smart move. To all those at Disneyland on Sunday, 
I am so sorry if we caused you any problems like headaches.
A good portion of this might be out of order…sorray…
So my friend Jacky was at my house all weekend. And so Sunday, to end the sleepovers, 
we went to Disneyland! I woke her up at 7:00 AM and annoyed her until we woke up. 
Then we got ready and went to the park.
We got here at probably 8:45 or 9:00. After going to the Hatter hat shop on Main Street to buy Jack’s brother a 
goofy hat, who do I see? Hatter walking with Cruella DeVil (A very odd couple to be certain). 
This is how it happened:
Me: Jacky guess who I see?
Jack: Who!?
Me: *points to Hatter*
Jack: …Who?
Me: Look where I’m pointing.
Jack: I don’t see what it is..
Me: LOOK FOR THE WALKING ORANGE THING!!! [Why is it that whenever I point him out, 
I need to call him the orange thing?]
Jack: OH I SEE HIM! HAAA-
Me: LEAVE HIM ALONE!
Jack: But…I…
Me: You’re gonna see him soon!
Jack: I just wanna give him a hug! *tries to run towards him*
Me: NO NO NO! *grabs her hand to keep her from going.
Hatter: *looks up at us, makes a confused face, then keeps walking*
Me: There will be NO tackling Hatter until after Musical Chairs.
Jack: Dang.
So we got a fastpass for Space Mountain, and then wandered aimlessly, until we headed over to the entrance to watch the band and Hatter and Alice. It was very funny, and I got most of it on video. Hatter is a…beautiful dancer. (Watch the videos, you’ll agree!)
Then we went over to Haunted Mansion, and sang “This is the chase, Rocky and Ken! He tried to kill me with a forklift! Ole!” from the greatness that is Mystery Science Theater 3000! We had a bit too much fun on that ride.
Then we headed over to the castle and got to see the show with the band. After awhile Jacky said “Look its Alice!” and I looked over and, to absolutely no surprise, saw Hatter and Alice. Hatter looked confused, it was funny. So they did the normal unbirthday celebration. Goofy tried to hatz Jacky, but it didn’t work. Then they had to run off, so Goofy kissed both of us on the head. I felt like he was trying to squish me! It was surprisingly painful. So we ran over to where they drive past to wave bye to Hatter and Alice, then went over to Tommorowland to use our fastpass for Space.
Then we got to go on Star Tours! We sung “I’m Harry Potter, school is for losers, I’m totally awesome!” while in line. On to the ride though. I hadn’t been on that ride in SOOOO long. So I was happy, but then my camera got stuck under my seat and a little boy had to help me get it out. It was caught on something. It was fun though.
Um…then we just wandered pretty much. Jacky got a picture with the Evil Queen from Snow White, then we just wandered around Fantasyland. Oh and when we were going by the Snow White ride Jacky said “Wait…doesn’t that chick we just saw appear in the window.” “*Evil Queen appears in the window* Like that?” “YEAH!!!”. So after that brief moment of oddness, we went on the teacups. I ended up getting tired of spinning towards the end, so I sat back and drank my imaginary tea.
Then we went on Thunder Mountain. Hehe we made the girls in front of us laugh. All the things I did to make them laugh:
- When it got really dark I yelled “I CAN’T SEEEE!!!!!!”
- Yelled “AWESOME OPOSSUMS!
- Screamed and flailed at the rock part
- Yelled “BLUBBER NUGGETS!!!” (Inside joke)
- Said “I JUST SAW HANNAH MONTANA!!!!”
- Pointed at people in line and screamed
The girls turned around and looked at me.
Me: Did I amuse you guys?
Girl: Very much so *laughs*
She reminded me of my friend Hannah.
Then we ended up in Toontown, so we went on Roger Rabbit, and had fun with that. We got a frozen lemonade cause it was REALLY hot. So we sat down and tried to eat that, but it was too frozen. So we headed over to Adventureland, and went on Jungle Cruise.
On Jungle Cruise we were the only ones who reacted to all of the guy’s jokes. Everyone else just kinda stared at him for most of it. I would hate to work on that ride. Not only would it be really hot for a lot of days, but I’d also feel like I complete idiot. But at the end the guy said “I would like to thank those two who laughed at my jokes while everyone else just stared at me awkwardly.” Jacky and I were like “Oh, that’s us!” We were happy. I liked him, he actually was funny, unlike most people on the ride. Oh, and when we got in the boat he told Jacky her hat was goofy looking, and told me that mine was simply mad! Get it? Goofy hat…goofy. Mad Hatter hat…mad. Haaaaa I get it…
OH! Before we went on Jungle Cruise though, we stopped off in the big store in Adventureland. We had decided on Friday that we would need to get pictures of us in Indiana Jones hats, so we did just that. We got a picture of the little stuffed cat we brought with us named Justin in one of the hats. Then Jacky put one on, and had a snake around her neck. Then I got the hat and the snake, so taking the “Snakes…you’re on your own.” line in mind, I leaned back, held the snake over me, and did my best “GET THAT THING AWAY FROM MEE!!” look. Then Jacky took like…10 minutes to take the picture, so my back REALLY hurt.
Then we got a fastpass for Indy, and decided to hang out in the Tiki Room cause it was really hot out. We both got really annoyed by the show, but enjoyed the air. Ahh, it was so nice. Even if the show got so annoying that we wanted to strangle one of the birds, we loved the air.
Then it was 2:00 so we decided to head over to Coke Corner to get a spot for Musical Chairs. We got the same spot I got last time. So we hung out there for awhile, Jacky worked on a comic she was drawing. Then Leanne came and poked the back of my head and declared that she was invading my personal space. Then she sat down next to us and drew a mailbox…I mean trashcan. I believe she titled it “The Magical Trashcan of Magicalness (mailbox)” Then we waited for everyone to show up. Secret agent piano man Robert showed up first (Um…you don’t wanna know). Then, just like last week, I was the first to notice Hatter. I saw a flash of orange and blue in a reflection in a window in the store across from Coke Corner.
Me: I see Hatter
Leanne, Jacky, Leanne’s mom: *turn*
Leanne: I don’t see him.
Me: Just wait you’ll see him.
Jacky: Um…
Me: NO! He was there.
Hatter: *Shows up*
Leanne: Oh there he is!
Jacky: Uhm…
Me: Jacky…
Jacky: OH I SEE HIM!
Me: *sighs*
Highlights:
- Queen of Hearts not letting Leanne play
- Queen also throwing two sugar packets at me (I still have them!)
- Peter pushing Alice off a chair, then Alice getting annoyed when ‘no pushing’ didn’t become a rule until after she got out.
- Alice giving Queen a manicure
- In the final round all the chairs being stuffed under Queen’s dress
- Peter looking under Queen’s dress. He wanted to see if she was fat. He said that it was just legs under there.
- Peter walking off during the game to get straws
- One girl not standing up to walk around the chairs, and Peter sitting down next to her saying he liked her strategy and sitting down with her
- Peter leaving the chairs to sit on his own chair a distance away. He claimed he kept losing his shadow
- A girl telling a “construction joke” (ya know, do you like construction jokes? I’m still working on mine! or whatever) that Peter didn’t get, so Hatter said “It’s a construction joke! IT’S FUNNY PETER!”. He might as well have said “LAUGH PETER!!!”
- Hatter screwing up every time he did the “W” for unwinner. I dunno if anyone else recognized this, but he does demented Ws
- Hatter calling for a second huddle, which Peter said “OHHHH Godddd” to.
- Peter making Hatter laugh, so Hatter’s “BREAK” came out as “BRE-HEY-HEY-HEY-HEY-HAKE!
- Hatter saying “DREAMS COME TRUE!” after saying they get to put away all the chairs, and a girl just looking at him like “Whaaaat…?” (I found it funny!)
Then the meet and greet after was completely chaotic. I am not even kidding.
Highlights:
- Peter getting bored, so he got some coffee creamer and coffee stirrers, and put them in Hatter’s sleeves.
- Robert failing at getting a straw in Peter’s hat, so he put it in Hatter’s. I don’t think he even noticed at first…
- Jacky getting blamed for everything:
Hatter stepped on one of the coffee creamers, and Peter pointed that out
Hatter: Um…*points at Jacky* IT WAS HER FAULT!
Jacky: Whut??
*later*
Me: *avoids stepping on coffee creamer for the 5th time* *kicks coffee creamer*
Hatter: *notices that I kicked it* Did you do that?
Me: Um….*points at Jacky* IT WAS HER!
Jacky: Whut?
Hatter: How rude!
- Leanne getting blamed for breaking my camera…
Me and Hatter: *pose for picture*
Leanne: I think I got it…
Me: YOU MEAN YOU BROKE MY CAMERA!?
Hatter: YOU BROKE HER CAMERA!?
Leanne: I PUSHED THE SHINY BUTTON!!!!!
Hatter: I think it has too many wheels in it.
Jacky: It needs butter…
Hatter: Yes, yes! Butter!
Me: *grabs camera from Leanne hoping she wouldn’t break it again*
- A kid had a little squirt bottle with a fan, and Hatter wanted to use it (It was REALLY hot. Like…94 degrees apparently), but the kid wouldn’t let him. Later the kid let him use it…well sorta. He used it for him. He ended up just spraying him in the face. He got soaked. He was all like “No! Not the waterrr! Noooooooo!” Go Hatter! Reverse psychology!!! I got a picture of him all wet. He was like…dripping.
- Along with the squirt bottle story, some water got on Hatter’s coat. I pointed it out to Jacky…she was VERY interested
Jacky: HE PEED HIS PANTS!!
Me: *covers Jacky’s mouth*
Hatter: *gasp* I DID NOT!! Why, I peed my coat!
Me: *still with hand over Jacky’s mouth* She said NOTHING! It was all part of your imagination!
Hatter: Ah…
Jacky: *licks my hand*
Me: EW YOU LICKED MY HAND!!!
Hatter: o_O
I think we might have scared him…
- Robert and Peter discussing how Hatter never stops talking…and Hatter talking the entire time.
- Hatter blowing us kisses as he left. :-)
Then Leanne left, and Jacky and I decided to stalk her a bit. So we fallowed her to get a spot for the parade. Leanne eventually turned around and looked at us, and I turned around and was like “LOOK AT THE LOVELY TREE!!!!” …we scared her too.
So we sat with Leanne for the parade. She drew the parade Hatter who worked that day (Squishy! My love! <3) really strangely. I got a picture of it. Then I took her sketchbook and drew a picture of her. Her mom said it looked just like her. I got a picture of that too.
Then the parade started, and the show stops were all weirdy…when we should have gotten the Wonderland float we got the Little Mermaid float…it was weird…
Then I tried to fallow the end of the Wonderland float like I usually do, but there was a bit of a problem by City Hall. There was this giant road block and we almost didn’t make it to the float before it went backstage. But we did, and it was worth the work getting through for Hatter’s face. He looked SO confused, because we had just been in that other spot but now we weren’t. Then we blew him kisses, and he shrugged off his confusion and kept our kisses.
Hehe…
Then we said bye to Leanne, and went over POTC. We got so annoyed because the woman in front of us said to her daughter that didn’t want to go on “BUT IT’S THE JACK SPARROW RIDE!”. Um…no. It’s not. That ride has been out longer than Johnny Depp has been alive. It is NOT the “Jack Sparrow ride”. Gah..
Then to haunted mansion again. We sang “He tried to kill me with a forklift, ole!” again. We got stuck at one point though, and we ended up missing the spoon – err…sword in the stone ceremony.
So we wandered around for awhile…went on rides I can’t remember. But then we went on Indy, which we still had a fastpass for cause it broke down earlier. While we were in line one of the cars broke down, and we were on the stairs. So we sat down waiting. The lady by us asked me what the 10/6 stood for, which I answered for her. Then the line got going, and we eventually got on.
We had so much fun on the ride. The end was hilarious.
Me: *sees Indiana Jones in the end* IS THAT HANNAH MONTANA?!
Jacky: NO! IT’S ZAC EFRON!!
Us: AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!
Then when we got to where people get on:
Me: DID YOU GUYS SEE HANNAH MONTANA BACK THERE?!
The guy in front of us started cracking up.
Then we ran over to watch the parade. It was all messed up again, and we still missed the Wonderland float show stop. But Hatter remembered us. I have a picture of him mid-wave looking at us wide-eyed like “Wait….whut?” then a picture a little bit later of him looking at us and yelling something to Alice. I think he said “ALICE THEY’RE BACK! I TOLD YOU I HAVE FANS!”
So we waved bye to him again, and we had an hour left.
So we decided to go on Fantasyland rides. We went on Pinocchio and did a tribute to Leanne. We went on…something else I think. But then we went on Storybook. So what do we do? We quote briberry’s “He is NOT going to kiss the girl” video! I had a bit too much fun hehe.
The cast member on the ride, Stan, was funny. He called us his glee club!
But then we had to go. BUT IT DIDN’T END THERE!! So we walked through downtown Disney to find my dad. The first thing we do when we see him? “HE TRIED TO KILL ME WITH A FORKLIFT! OLE!”
Then we asked him what distraught means
And we also gave him a play by play of the day. He was confused.
Thus ends the trip! But Jacky and I want to go this Sunday since she has a 2fer. So maybe more to come. Then Bri and I want to go the week after, which will be a sad trip…

4-6-08 Trip Report

  • Apr. 7th, 2008 at 11:38 PM
myalice
Trip report…yeah.
 
Wake up at 7:10 when Bri called me thinking it was 8:10…whatever I was getting up five minutes later anyway. Well got ready, had some lovely tea and waffles…yeah…, got picked up, and went to the park. Got there at 9:00 probably.
 
First thing we did was…got pictures of the flowers! And some lady asked me to take a picture of her. I ALWAYS GET THAT! I don’t have a problem with it, it’s just a fact. I think its cause I have a big camera, so people assume I’m good at it. I hope I am. Well the lady had a Legally Blonde The Musical sweatshirt on. I was so jealous.
 
So we went on Astro Blasters and just spun the little thing around in circles. It was fun. And we got a picture of a picture of the little green alien guys. I named them all chuck, except one I named Reggie. Then we got a fastpass for space mountain.
 
Then we decided to go on Splash Mountain. We were NOT organized haha. So we went on that, and ended up singing Hatter’s version of zip-a-dee-doo-dah. Aka:
Us: Zip a dee doo dah, zip a dee ah! Mr Bluebird on my shoulder GET HIM OFF! GET HIM OFF!
We made the guys in front of us laugh =D score!
 
Then I can’t really remember what happened…LETS PICK UP WHERE I REMEMBER!
 
HEADING TO SPACE MOUNTAIN! Hokay, so we’re heading over to space mountain. We had to cut through main street to get there. At first we were like “Nehh…lets eat then go.” Glad we didn’t. So we’re cutting in front of the castle and the band ceremony was going. So:
Me: Heh, lets go see if Hatter and Alice come out.
Bri: Why would they?
Me: They do this unbirthday thing and sing the song and dance around. I don’t think they do it every time. Well let’s go look.
And then we see this green thing and hear: STOOOOOOOOOOOP! QUIIIIIETTT!
Me: Oh there he is…
So we run over to watch it, me flipping out haha. I’ve never been able to watch it, so I was excited. Plus it was my favorite Hatter! Yippy! So they sang, they dance, Hatter waved to us. It was fun. I filmed it, but really all you can see for most of the video is Goofy and occasionally a bit of hatter…eh still, you can hear him sing. Most videos I see you can’t hear him sing cause its filmed close up and they’re not close to a speaker. It was fun hearing him sing.
So then the band leader asks if he’s missing something and Hatter screams “Oh yes…TEA TIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIME!” And all the characters run off and all cram in the little car thing. So Bri and I go to wave bye. Then Hatter waved to us again and called us his friends, which made us happy. And Alice waved, Alice rocks, I like Alice.
 
So we go over to Space Mountain, still talking about seeing Hatter, and see my friend Kyle’s mom! Now, we knew he was gonna be here, but we thought we’d plan seeing him. So we waited by star tours waiting to see him in line, and did. We said hi and that we’d see him later, then went on Space Mountain. It was fun, Bri and I were cracking up for some odd reason.
 
Then we went over to New Orleans Square and ate. We ate at Café Orleans and had those really good fries they have there, and the monte cristo sandwiches. It was Bri’s first and she said that it was heavenly, and she now believes that heaven is filled with them. Then we left.
 
AND SAW MERLIN! Now this is the Merlin that is so obviously Psycho Hatter. He was very funny, even if we only saw the last few minutes. My absolute favorite part:
Merlin: Everyone say ‘Ooooh!’
Everyone: ooooh!
Merlin: Everyone say ‘Aaah!”
Everyone: Aaah!
Merlin: Everyone say ‘I’m going to buy Merlin a chuuuurroooo!!!’
Everyone: ……
Merlin: *blink*
Me: I’M GONNA BUY MERLIN A CHURRO!
Merlin: Thank you whoever said that!
 
Hehehe. Then we went over and Bri got a picture with him. Then we left and went the wrong way. We then said that he messed up our sense of direction and turned around. Then right when we walked past him I replied to that with “CURSE THE WOOOOORLD!!!!!!” and then started cracking up, cause he says that as Hatter in a video I got. Hehe, whups.
                                                          
I think we went on Alice in Wonderland after that. A little boy in line tried to take my hat which I thought was adorable. Then we went on and had fun trying to get pictures. They all came out really bad haha. So we had fun on that, ended up seeing MICKEY on the tea cups at that little part where you go outside. I tried to get his attention but he ignored me. Hmph. Oh and we saw Geppetto after getting off. I got a picture of him and Bri.
 
I think after that we went on Matterhorn (which we have the habit of calling Natterhorn now…thanks Leanne). Haha but on the way to Matterhorn we saw Alice. I was like “It’s Alice!” and so we waved to her. She couldn’t stop though :-(
Us: Aww hi Alice!
Alice: Oh hello again you two! (Yeah she must of remembered us from that castle show)
Bri: *whispers* Am I ever gonna get a picture with Alice?
Me: Later.
Alice: Are you two coming to musical chairs?
Me: Of course!
Alice: Oh wonderful! Can’t wait to see you there!
Us: Bye Alice!
 
So then we kept walking. Bri was talking to me about the Cheshire cat or something, and I was distracted. And then I turn and see what looked like an ORANGE BLOB!
Me: WHAT’S WITH THE ORANGE BLOB?!
Bri: Whaaaaaat? *looks around*
Me: Ohhhhhh it’s Hatter!
Bri: Where? I don’t see him!
Me: Bri, look for the walking talking orange thing.
Bri: Ohhhh….I see him.
 
So in order to get to Matterhorn we had to go past him. Ahh, the sacrifices we had to make. [hehe]
 
So we go past him and he recognized us, which made us happy.
Hatter: Oh hello again friends!
Us: Hi Hatter!
Hatter: How wonderful to see you again!
Bri: The pleasure is entirely ours. [I seriously thought she was about to bow]
Hatter: I expect I’ll be seeing you two for musical chairs?
Us: Why, of course! We wouldn’t miss it for the world!
Hatter: Aww, well see you then friends. Buh bye now!
 
I like how he says ‘buh bye’. It sounds really cute. Like ‘BUUH bye’
 
Then heading over to Matterhorn we saw Gepetto again! We thought he might have been stalking us. So we went on Matterhorn, and it seemed faster and darker. It was pretty scary haha.
 
Um…kinda blanking now. So we did stuff, saw Gepetto again, then went on the teacups. We had a bit too much fun. We were screaming really loud and we were barely spinning. Then Bri said “What if we didn’t even spin and started screaming really loud.” So of course we did. Then towards the end I see this grey thing and yell “IT’S EEYORE!” Who we had seen like…five times already. So we’re watching Eeyore as we slowly spin. I found it funny.
 
Then it was 2:00 so we went over to Coke Corner. I called Kyle for the 50th time trying to convince him to come. He didn’t pick up though. Whatever. Then Leanne and her mom came over and sat with us, and I stole her name tag. Hehehe. Then I put it in my wallet, and eventually in my hair. Then Bert and Mary came over, and a couple minutes later four penguins came over. One of the penguins was VERY entertained by our hats. So he stared at Bri’s hat. He then pointed to it, then pointed to himself, so Bri gave him the hat and he put it on his head. It was cute.
 
So a couple minutes later they all left. And so we were left waiting. Leanne decided she was gonna give Hatter a melted piece of chocolate *rolls eyes*. So at the point where Bri was like “Where’s Robert?!” cause he had left, and Leanne was like “Where’s Hatter?!” I’m looking over at where they usually come from. And I see a few people, and Hatter in the middle spinning around and clapping.
Me: Oh there he is. And he’s dancing. Why am I not surprised.
 
So they came over and he waved to us and then they started to set up. At first all they could find was one chair. So Peter and Hatter ran off and Alice was stuck looking at the chair confused.
Alice: How are we going to play with one chair?
Bri: Oh I’ll give up my chair, I’m playing anyway.
Alice: Make that two chairs.
Then Hatter and Peter came to the rescue with chairs! Yay them! So they all got set up, and the game started. I got probably all of it on video, if not I know Leanne did.
Funny moments:
- Someone screaming about how great the game is when he was seeing if anyone was excited, which he replied with screaming that looked like he was trying to see all manly, but failed miserably.
Her: I’M SO FOR IT!
Hatter: Yes SO FOR IT!
It was funny hehe.
- When Hatter asked what game they should play, Peter saying a little girl just said something, and then her cracking up. Hatter was like “Hahaha, you just cracked yourself up!” and he sounded so cute :)
- Hatter saying Alice was already a loser because she didn’t have a chair, then her informing him that he said she could stand up because they needed one more person, which resulted in Hatter pointing at her and yelling “LOOOOOOSEEEEEERRRRR!!!!”, Alice calling him a liar, and him gasping dramatically.
- Robert messing up with the “DISAPPEAR!” music, and taking a few tries to get Hatter to actually get it out cause he was so entertained by the soundtrack
- Hatter saying the losers should be “Super losers”, and Peter saying they should be “Codfish”
- Peter pushing everyone and yelling “FASTER FASTER!” and both him and hatter trying to get everyone to go faster. That was until Alice told him to stop. Wow, he listened.
- Hatter being SUPER entertained by a knock knock joke
Hatter: Knock knock?
Everyone: WHO’S THERE?
Hatter: SHELBY!
Leanne and I: *Already start laughing because we know what’s coming*
Everyone: SHELBY WHO?
Hatter: SHELBY coming round the mountain when she comes *mucho singing and dancing*
That seems to be his favorite joke. He gets so into it!
- Peter giving his chair to a little girl, then saying Alice pushed him out of the way. Hatter did a very entergetic finger wiggle and was like “NO PUSHING.”
- A little kid crying while Peter was trying to tell his joke and Hatter turning to the area the crying was coming from and doing this weird scream/cry/moan thing….sorta sounded like something dying.
- Alice telling a joke that like…two people laughed at, then Hatter telling the exact same joke and everyone laughing. Everything really is funnier when he says it.
- Hatter getting booed.
Lady who got out: Why would Cinderella make a lousy soccer player?
Hatter: I don’t know, why?
Lady: Because she keeps running away from the ball!
*everyone laughs*
Lady: And she’s got a pumpkin for a coach!
*everyone laughs more*
Hatter: AND SHE’S A GIRL!
Everyone: …….booooooo!
Hatter: *points* IT WAS HER JOKE!
- Hatter jumping up and down and his teapot clinked in his pocket a few times. Then Alice, Peter, and Hatter kept trying to get it to clink again. He was so set on trying to get it to clink. He’d jump up and down looking hopeful, reach in his pocket and move it a bit, jump up and down again, then move a bit, and jump again. He never did get it to clink though.
- A very strange cheating moment. When a little girl got out, Peter moved a chair over to her. Hatter then accused Peter of cheating. Now, if you know Leanne (or seen her first I’m Bored video) you’d know she likes this.
So Hatter accuses Peter of cheating.
Leanne: Hatter’s like cheater! Peter’s like whut?
Then later Peter said that it was really Hatter cheating
Me: Now Peter’s like cheater! Hatter’s like whut?
Then Alice decided she was in charge, and played rock paper scissors with the girl to decide if she’d be in or out. (At one point Alice ended up yelling “SHE’S ROCKING ME!!!) When the girl won Alice said she was cheating
Leanne: Alice’s like cheater….kid’s like whut?
Me: You having fun?
Leanne: I like today
- Hatter yelling “SWITCH DIRECTIONS!” and all the girls playing screaming and turning around. He had fun with this. He would scream, then yell “SWITCH DIRECTIONS!” again, and then all the girls would scream. This happened quite a few times. Has anyone seen Anchorman? You know how Brick at one point yells “I DON’T KNOW WHAT WE’RE YELLING ABOUT…….LOUD NOISES!!!!” it reminded me of that.
- Hatter telling the most random and long whale joke. He seriously looked and sounded constipated. I can’t even describe it.
 
Wow…that’s a lot of funny moments. Well then it was the usual final round madness, and with the usual ending the chairs were put back and the game ended. So we went over to him to get Bri’s hat signed. I got a teeny bit of footage of the meet and greet, but mainly just pictures. Best part though was the fact that I got to give him a hug. Dang that man gives good hugs. I wanna be his friend just so I can get hugs from him :-) Seriously.
Well I was gonna get my hat signed, but I didn’t get the chance to cause they had to go and get ready for the parade, or in Alice’s case “Put on her pretty dress”.
So Bri and I got a spot for the parade. We got the opening float, then walked a bit and got the wonderland float. But it wasn’t the usual Hatter who works on Sundays, so we decided to just watch the show stop, and not fallow it to the end like we planned to and did last time.
 
Then we called my friend Kyle and found out he was in DCA, so we headed over there to see him. After waiting awhile we got to go on Screamin with him. In line for it I found a stick and used it as a magic wand. So I started waving it around singing bipity bopity boo, and making Kyle laugh. Then I tried to turn him into a shoe, but that didn’t work. Then after awhile we got on, and I sat behind him and screamed my head off just to bug him. It was fun.
 
We then wandered a bit and tried to get on one last ride before leaving, but didn’t get the chance to. BUT WE SAW PUSH! Oh my gosh I’ve wanted to see Push for the longest time. We were walking past GRR and saw this crowd of people. I had no idea what was going on, so I just listened carefully. Then I hear this very high robotic voice. So I was like “OH MY GOSH IT’S PUSH!” and we went over and watched him for a bit. He set up a rock star photo shoot with a couple of people. And I found the guy controlling him! It was fun.
And then we went home. Both of us already want to go back, and are seriously hoping to go back this Sunday. Plus I need to get my hat signed!
My friend Jack wants to go though, so we’re thinking about going Friday and staying till closing so we can watch Fantasmic!, then going Sunday so we can watch musical chairs. We need to find out though.

Disneyland with my sister - 3/30

  • Apr. 5th, 2008 at 5:24 PM
myalice
And I present you with…MY FIRST DISNEYLAND TRIP REPORT!
 
 
Started off the morning with having NO idea where my sister, Tina, was. Came home 20 minutes later saying she was at a friends house. Ahh whatever.
 
So after getting ready we drove to the parks. Ended up singing Disney songs almost the entire way there. This is what I love about going to DL with her. We end up singing and getting into Disney mode.
 
After upgrading her pass from Southern California Select to Southern California, we saw that the line into Disneyland was looooong, so we headed over to CA. It was 1:00 so we had an hour until we were heading over to Disneyland. We got a fastpass for Soarin, then went on the Swings. I hate that ride, but I ended up singing “You Can Fly” really loud. Then after wandering we headed over to DL.
 
So at 2:15 we went over to Coke Corner. What do I see on the way? A PENGUIN.
 
Me: OH MY GOD A PENGUIN?
Tina: What’s that mean?
Me: Mary and Bert!
 
So both my sisters acted like complete fangirls and ran over there. Sure enough, there they were. My sister flipped out. She wants to be Mary Poppins. When my sister got to see her, she actually said “I wish I could be you.” which Mary replied “That is quite the honor, my dear.” and the penguin kissed her hand. She flipped.
 
Oh, while this was happening, who do I see? The awesome Leanne! I knew she was there, but I still got excited. She was sitting with her mom and was looking at her sketchbook, I think open to and Oswald picture haha. I said to my sister “One moment.” and walked over and pulled her hat down. I HAD TO DO IT!
 
After getting pictures, I saw my friend Bri and her sister there. So we hung out for awhile until my sister said “Oh look, it’s your precious Hatter!” Bri and I both immediately looked, and to our surprise it wasn’t who was supposed to be working. Ah, he’s still one of my favorites. Right when he got there he walked over to us.
Hatter: WHY are you having a Mad Hatter tea party and I was not invited?
Us: Um…you could sit down.
Hatter: Oh no, that’s fine. *starts messing with my hat*
Me: Oh no
Hatter: *turns it slightly to the right* There! Much better!
Me: Wait…what?
Hatter: *reaches over to mess with Bri’s hat*
Me: *reaches over before him and pulls it down* Heehaw…
Hatter: *gasp* DID YOU SEE WHAT SHE DID!?
Bri: Yep
Hatter: Oh ok. Invite me next time! *Goes to set up*
 
So the game started and Bri got to play. The instructions on how to play had a very funny moment.
Hatter: Now I know what you’re thinking. You’re thinking ‘Mr Hatter, why are you shrewdly handsome?’ Well you see it all started rather very young.
Alice: That was not what I was thinking. [It so was]
Hatter: Oh what were you thinking?
Alice: I was thinking that that doesn’t sound very hard.
Hatter: Oh that’s very true. Because-
Girl later to be called Julia: Mr. Hatter
Hatter: Yes?
Julia: I think you’re adorable. [Duh]
Hatter: Why thank you! *claps* We already have our winner!
 
Well the game went on with lots of singing, and I got most of it on camera. Funny parts included:
 
- Robert yodeling and Hatter trying to yodel
- Hatter mocking Alice (one of the best parts)
- Hatter mistaking my friend saying she lives in “Trabuco Canyon” for “The Bugle Canyon”
- Hatter making fun of a 21 year old for getting beaten by a bunch of kids under the age of 12
- A little girl named Mia getting out and Hatter claiming she told this joke:
 
Hatter: What is the difference between Alice and Quasimodo?
Alice: Well there are a lot of differences!
Hatter: I don’t know, I can’t tell the difference either!
Which made Alice very sad
 
….and other really funny stuff.
 
Afterwards Bri and I went to get a spot for the parade. In the parade we scared Peter Pan by blowing kisses to him. He was a good sport and blew us kisses back. Then not much happened until the Wonderland float. The same Hatter who was working last time I went was working. I absolutely adore that man, he is so sweet and adorable. He is also very bouncy and hyper. We decided to fallow the float from coke corner to the end. His face was hilarious when after we said by to each other we showed up 10 seconds later.
 
During the parade the fallowing happened:
- Alice called us an imposter which Hatter replied with “Oh I like them, they’re cool.”
- My hat fell off and so I just picked it up and kept walking. When Hatter saw this:
Hatter: You’re not wearing your hat!
Me: Oh no I’m not, I’m so sorry! *puts it on* Better?
Hatter: *adorable smile* Oh you look so much better now.
- Hatter posed for my camera even though I was far away, then looked at my camera when he had his adorable smile on his face
- We blew Hatter kisses at the end. This part was cute. At the end of the parade he looked over at us and pouted and waved slowly to us. We both yelled “Bye Hatter! We’ll miss you!” which he replied “Oh I’ll miss you guys too!” and then Bri and I started blowing him kisses. Not sure what happened to Bri’s, but he caught mine and put it in his pocket. Then the parade ended and Bri had to go home.
 
AND I SAW LEANNE AGAIN! She hatzed me, and I chased her and beat her with my hat. Then we sat by a door she claimed was her house and stuff happened. I attacked her with some tape then put it on the wall, she noticed some balloons flying away so I yelled bye to them and scared off some poor Asian family, a boy walked by and saw us and FLED which made me laugh really hard, I stole the pin off her hat and played keep away, she just found Hatter’s microphone (idiot), and…other stuff that I can’t remember.
 
Then she left to watch the play parade and my sister ate a corndog, then we went to go on Soarin. I saw Leanne and hatzed her, then we rode Soarin, then got a fastpass for tower, wandered for quite awhile, and then headed back over to tower. Oh and we went in this store and I bought ONE bead…A TEACUP! Then we went on tower and had the BEST bellhop named Ian. This one guy said something about how they used to have the people try to stand up after being buckled in (I swear I remember this too!)
 
Him: Why don’t we have to stand up?
Ian: …Because you’re strapped down… o_O.
 
Then he did the usual spiel, but very creepily.
 
Ian: And management requests that you please hold on tightly…*turns away* *quickly turns back* to all hats, glasses…loved ones you want to keep in this dimension. *turns away* *turns back even faster* HA! *everyone screams* If there’s anything you need…you’re too late. *doors close*
 
Right when the door closed everyone was like “He was CREEPY.” And he was. My sister and I agreed we had to go to city hall and write a compliment about him. So we went back and what was about to start? THE SECOND PARADE! So we wrote the compliment and then left right as the parade started. We went through a store and I SO stalled so we could walk with the wonderland float. And towards the end of when I needed to stall I started to run out of stuff, and then the float started coming. I said “WE DIDN’T HAVE THE JUMPING FLOWERS!” and ran outside. My sister thought the flowers were cool and wanted to watch them for a bit.
 
I. Had. Succeeded.
 
So Hatter totally remembered me. He saw me and pointed at me, and waved like a complete idiot. When my sister and I started waving, he started jumping and was trying to get us to jump with him. So we did, and we got to walk with the float. It was fun because Hatter kept waving at me.
 
Then my sister finally said “I’m done with this, thunder mountain time.” I pouted and looked back at the float. A second later Hatter looked back over at me. I put on my best sad face and waved bye. He pouted as well and waved bye and then reached out, which I did too. He said “Bye my friend, hope to see you again soon!” which I yelled back “OH YOU WILL! BYEEEE!” and blew him a kiss, which he caught and stored in his pocket again, and got to leave the parade route happy, cause my favorite Hatter called me his friend and kept my kiss again.
 
After going on thunder mountain we left. I already want to go back. I’m going this Sunday with Bri and hope to get more video

Putting this to use.

  • Mar. 2nd, 2008 at 2:40 PM
myalice

Putting this to use now, go me.



Well I'm probably gonna use this for Disneyland pictures, so I can put two of my favorite things together. Disneyland + Photography = happy Brooke!

Sadly, I don't have any trip dates planned. I'm planning on going with my friend Jacky, my sister, and a friend of my sister. That way Jack and me can hang out aroud the park while my sister and her friend can do stuff. Doing this with Jack would be fun. We really shouldn't be left alone though. One example of this is when we had an Ultimate Overnighter with school, and at 3 AM ended up naming golf balls and hitting them into the little lake at the mini golf course.

It was fun though!


Well that trip is still just in planning. The problem with going to Disneyland is I go with my cousin who would NOT be up for Character Hunting. Which is why I want to go with friends.


Well off the subject of Disneyland, I do have one event planned. 

May 10th.
Anaheim. 
Honda Center.
One night only.
Michael.
Buble.

One of my favorite singers in coming to southern California, and I'M GOING! I am so excited! It is going to be awesome.


Well I hope SOME people read this. I'll keep anyone who reads this in on the plans for Disneyland.

Ta for now!

What is this for?

myalice
Well I got one of these to comment on others...but I'm bored, so I decided to post on here.

But then again, chances are no one is gonna read it...whatever.

I shall say something about me...

I love Disneyland. I love musicals. I love Doctor Who. I love Torchwood. I love Disneyland. I love Michael Buble. I love Josh Groban. I love John Barrowman. I love Disneyland. I love David Tennant. I love the Mad Hatter. Did I mention I love Disneyland?


...Maybe, since I love Disneyland so much and photography, I'll post some pictures here when I go. Yeah, I dunno yet. I'll think about it.
