Oh, Hey! I’m Still Alive

Nina Penalosa2 Comments

My trip to Disneyland last weekend literally left me speechless. No… seriously. I left with a baaaad case of laryngitis. Perhaps Ursula stole my voice while I was on the Little Mermaid ride at California Adventure — it stopped 5 times while I was on it. It only makes sense! <– no it doesn’t, I obviously caught something from someone.

I’m able to speak again despite the fact that my throat feels like a rabid kitten had been set lose and used it as a scratching post. That’s a step up from having a completely sore throat though, right? No? Yeah, you’re probably right. They’re both pretty terrible.

Anyway, I just wanted to leave a post to let y’all know I’m not dead! I’ll be back tomorrow with a post about experiencing my first 24 hour event at a Disney Park and how long I lasted. SPOILER ALERT: Totally didn’t last all 24 hours.

Until tomorrow, my little ponies! Hope you had a fantastic weekend. ♥

cheers

Hey my little ponies! So it looks like I fell off the face of the earth again — oops. I’m actually in Anaheim right now because I’m heading to Disneyland’s 24 hour event to kick off their Diamond Celebration tomorrow! Or technically, I’m lining up later tonight.

I’m not entirely sure how I will survive this, but I’m going to be scattering some Disney/Marvel themed necklaces from Le Fancy Geek Boutique around the park for anyone to take home!

Designs include:

  • Steve Rogers (Captain America)
  • Thor
  • Mary Poppins
  • Indiana Jones
  • Elsa
  • Baymax

If you’re going to be there too, be sure to follow me on Instagram at @lefancygeek to get updates on where you can find each one! 😀

cheers

It’s May 4, which means it’s Star Wars Day!

My little Wookiee and I would like to wish you all a happy Star Wars Day, and May the fourth be with you, my little ponies! Or shall I call you my little tauntauns today? 😀

I’m actually wearing my Boba Fett dress today and me and my friend (who is also wearing their Boba Fett dress) are getting boba (that pearl drink thingy) after work to celebrate! Also, in honor of today you can save 15% off at Le Fancy Geek Boutique until Sunday, May 10 with code CHEWIE15. A couple of new Star Wars necklaces will be up later today!

Happy Star Wars Day and don’t forget to shoot first!

cheers

PS: Happy Audrey Hepburn Day too because today is her birthday! And Lance Bass from *NSYNC. Haha!

In case you’re wondering the Ryan bag is actually a baby bag, BUT you can most definitely use it for other things like school, work, the gym — the side pockets would be perfect for storing large water bottles to quench your thirst at the gym or wherever you go!

As always, the giveaway is open to all of my old and new readers. Just please don’t follow and then unfollow, because that’s not very nice. US residents only (sorry, international ponies). The giveaway ends next Monday, May 11!
