Europe 7: Cruise Day 4

The moment I have been waiting for is going to Athens. Sadly it was a bit rainy and cloudy but we still to to do everything we wanted to do. Including the Acropolis which is photographed above. Behind me is the famous Pantheon. It's so weird thinking thousands and thousands of years the structure has lasted and how many people have walked and stood where I was. I sat on a rock thinking how many people through the years have sat on this rock thinking like me. It's a really amazing feeling and experience.

Now the Acropolis is a bit of a hike to get to the top of. As you can see in the photo above. You can see all of Athens from the very top. This photo isn't at the very top but it's pretty close. I just find such beauty in historical places. I love to just imagine how it looked in its prime. It is so incredible and I am so happy that I got to experience it. Who knows how long it could still be standing.

Then I got to go to the first Olympic stadium. Now we didn't have too much time and for me that was the only regret for this tour. I wish I could of stayed longer here. I got to walk up the steps and look around but I never got to go on the field. I guess that is something I can experience next time I visit Greece. I would love to go back and experience Athens again on my own and not on a guided tour. So I can take as much time as I want at each location.

GeekyCon 2016 Highlights

Meeting Maxwell Glick and Jon Cozart after the Disney sing-a-long after being on stage with them during a Tangled song and being in the front row dancing with them, two very sweet gentleman and I'm so happy I got to meet them and getting some youtube advise from Mr. Cheezypop himself! At the Charity ball I got to meet Ty Simpkins who is from Jurassic World and the Insidious films. He was also very sweet and nice of him to come out of the V.I.P area to interact with his fans and take photos for free and have nice conversations with everyone. That same night after the dance was the Harry Potter and the Cursed Child midnight release party! Potter Puppet Pals did a show, there was real life wizard chess, quid ditch matches, costume contests, being sorted by the sorting hat, and much more to do. It was so much fun and of course getting the book was icing on the cake. Then I got to meet Pemberly Digital! Frankenstein M.D., The Lizzie Bennet Diaries, and my p...

Original Character Pokemon Trainer Cosplay

I made my own Pokeballs and brought my starter pokemon with me to Megacon. I did a black and white base for the outfit with pops of mint green. I wore my hair in two buns and also wore a bow necklace. A lot of girl pokemon trainers wore skirts or shorts so I went with this cute black and white skirt. To finish the look off I wore my white keys. I met this girl at mega who made the cutest pokemon cosplay I've seen so far in my life. As you can see in my cosplay I also had my pokemon badges in my vest, just like Ash. They are the indigo league badges. I have all 8 and not photographed I also had the Master Ball. If you would like a video of my outfit and how I made the poke balls let me know.

2013

My goodness how time flew by so fast. To think this time last year I was working in Irvine, California meeting all the amazing new friends that I made. I saw some awesome movies and did some amazing things. I can't believe I got to see One Direction Live at the Staple Center! I met iJustine and the cast of The Lizzie Bennet Diaries at Leaky Con 2013. I went to Portland for the first to go to Leaky Con and it was an amazing experience. I also enjoyed Disneyland and California Adventure as well as Universal Hollywood. I've figured out who my real friends are upon moving back to Florida. I've made some new friends and have become even closer with my brother (which I didn't think could be possible considering how close we were before). I feel like this year I really got a grasp on who I am and not letting people walk all over me. I'm standing up for myself and dealing with problems in an up front way. Next year, I need to get back to how I was eating in Californ...
