Day 1039: A Long, Long Time Ago

I was going through old blog posts in search of a Throwback Thursday and happened to go all the way back to Day 5, which feels more like a lifetime ago than anything else. Turns out, I had little to talk about that day too aside from Pinterest and social media, but I happened to find it humorous that I was apparently just as lost for topics on Day 5 as I am on Day 1039. 

The pinterest boards I talk about in that blog post are still going, and I'm sure many, many new pins have appeared, such as the following gems: 

You can still go and check out my Disney inspired Pinterest boards by following the link on the side of the page, and while I probably don't post distinctly Disney things all the time, as Everyday Disney proves, it doesn't really matter if it's Disney or not...because Disney's probably related anyways. 

Have a magical day!

Day 1018: 40,000 Ago

It's always strange to look back at just how far Everyday Disney has come. So much has changed, and when I debated another Throwback Thursday, it occurred to me that on October 15, 2013, I had just hit 10,000 views. Now, two years later, I'm about to hit 50,000, and while it's not necessarily a HUGE number, at the same time it shows that someone is obviously reading.

You can go back and read my post from October of 2013 HERE, just to give you an idea of where I was back then.

Actually, that blog post seems almost like something I would write today, despite the fact that I know I'm a very different person. I still have a ton of homework and other projects I should be focusing on, leaving much less time for my blog than I really want. I'm also still certainly happy with just sitting and writing my blog even if no one is actually reading. Everyday Disney, for me, is all about focusing on my love of Disney while exploring new opportunities, and I'm not about to give any of this experience up.

However, just like in 2013, I really need to get back to my real work. Lots is coming up in the next month or so leading up to my junior recital, and I'm behind already due to a complete lack of time. If only there were more hours in a day!

Have a magical day!

Day 1004: History Repeats Itself

First off, I'd like to say that I'm not at all used to seeing the Day number be over 1000. After all, I spent 900 days in triple digits and now everything will be changed forever! On the other hand, however, it's quite odd, because today I find myself in a position I apparently found myself in two years ago, to the day: stuck.

Every once and a while, when I can't quite come up with a solid topic for a blog post, I'll go back and look at old ones. Sometimes they'd featrued in a #ThrowbackThursday post, and other times I'll just find inspiration for another blog post entirely. Usually, when I do this, I'll start with the day that corresponds with the current date. So, today, I went back to October 1, 2013 to see what was aflutter back then!

Apparently nothing was aflutter though, because my blog post that day talks half about not knowing what else to say. For year 1, it was an incredibly short blog post, to be honest, and if you want to read it, you can do so HERE. A year ago I did a post on How I Blog, which is actually entirely different from the way Everyday Disney works now (I did some serious updates about 11 months ago), but might still be worth a read (find it HERE).

The important part about October 1, however, rings true no matter what year it is or now actually boring the day was, and if you have no idea what I'm talking about, I think you need to go brush up on your Disney history! That's right! October 1 marks the birthday of both Magic Kingdom and Epcot at Walt Disney World, and it's a day my Instagram is filled with celebrations from Disney fans across the world.

And you know what, it's on days like today that I'm really reminded about the Disney community. It really doens't matter where you come from, and it doesn't matter where you're going, because all of have one thing in common: Disney. For some that might mean Disneyland, and for me it definitely means Disney World, but regardless of what you call home, it's always going to be there waiting for us.

So happy birthday Walt Disney World! Here's to many more years of magic!



Have a magical day!
