Pre-Sale Tickets for Frozen on Ice

This week, the pre-sale tickets for the Disney on Ice production of Frozen went on sale, and let me tell you, getting tickets was a traumatic experience. I go to Disney on Ice probably about 2-3 times a year, and I have never seen tickets sell so fast. I went on Ticketmaster to purchase tickets with the pre-sale code for my future roommates and I, and the seats were literally disappearing on the screen before my eyes. In the past, I've spontaneously showed up at box offices to buy tickets for that evening's Disney on Ice production, and was still able to get decent seats, but with Frozen on Ice it was absolute craziness. Thankfully, I was able to get tickets for the four of us, though it ended up being easier to get 2 and 2 seats together, in two rows right behind each other. 

Because I will be in Orlando from August to January, I will be seeing Frozen on Ice in September there during the first weekend that it is out. I'm really excited for it, and I'm hoping that it will be a return to the old days when Disney on Ice shows focused on 1 movie and did not involve tons of random characters. The emails I've read about it mention that there will be other characters in it, so I'm hoping they just show up at the end or something and the whole show isn't filled with characters who don't belong in that story.

My roommates are also working on making short videos of themselves that I will be putting together into one vlog so be looking out for that in the future. That's really all I've got for now, Holly is booking our hotel room for the night before we check in today, and I'll be booking my airfare next week. 

I've also been writing lots of articles recently for disneyquestions.com , so if you're ever on there, keep a look out for those!

Disney Questions and My Graduation Cap

Since I've last posted here, I've begun writing articles for Disney Questions. (disneyquestions.com). For now I will mostly be writing top 10 lists over there-- it's similar to BuzzFeed, though the website is entirely about Disney. My first article, "The Top 10 Ways to Propose at Walt Disney World," is already up! I'm not going to forget about this blog though! I don't have too much to write about at the moment that's DCP-related, but I did just finish decorating my cap for graduation!

Disney Graduation Caps

After picking up my cap and gown from my college's bookstore today, I began thinking about decorating a cap with some kind of a Disney theme or quote. There are a lot of Disney quotes that seem to go perfectly with graduation, and I could also mention "DCP 2014" or something on the cap as well. So far the quotes I'm thinking of using include:

"Just keep swimming." - Finding Nemo

"Hakuna Matata." - The Lion King 

"Adventure is out there." - UP

"To infinity, and beyond!" - Toy Story

"The difference between winning and losing is most often not quitting." - Walt Disney

"If you can dream it, you can do it." - Walt Disney

(I think the last one is a bit cliche, especially for a graduation/participating in the DCP quote, but maybe it will grow on me.)

I really like the quote from UP, and I'm also thinking that if I wanted to add the house and the balloons, that would not be too difficult to make and I might actually be able to do that. I don't want my cap to be tacky, and my artistic abilities are not really awesome, so I'd rather stick with something simple if I'm going to add any kind of artwork to the quote.
