Just Getting Started...

Hi everybody, welcome to Aurora's Cottage. My name is R2C and I am a 100% dedicated and obsessed fan of all things Disney. Please get comfortable at this humble abode as I do my best to update you with all sorts of news about this magical entertainment company.

Have an HSM obsession - or one for any Disney Channel show for that matter? I've got you covered. How about updates on that new animated Disney Princess feature? I'll be mentioning it. Or that new ride at a theme park? I have all the scoop. Plus, so much more. I HOPE YOU'RE EXCITED... because I sure am!


But first, here's a little bit about myself...



1) I'm currently a sophomore/junior/senior (please don't ask, because it's hard to explain) at Boston University. I'm originally from Houston, Texas but decided to venture up north (to the cold weather) to Boston. My last month here will be August.

2) I created this blog as part of a New Media class I'm currently taking in school. It joins my personal LiveJournal and my various Online Tickets blogs I write for work.

3) I'm a huge, self-proclaimed Disney fan. First of all, I'm a 9 year old in the body of a 19 year old, and I think that explains a lot. Don't get me wrong; I can be completely mature when needed. But sometimes, I can break out into giggle fits and obsessive modes like you won't believe. Anyway, my favorite Disney Princess is Aurora (aka Sleeping Beauty), hence the name of this blog. However, I probably own 90% of Disney movies, and I love every single one of them. To be sure, I own every classic there probably is. Don't ask me to choose which one is my favorite, because I really couldn't.

3) Besides Disney stuff, my favorite movie EVER is Gone With the Wind. AMAZING! I'm absolutely in love with it.

4) Soul Meets Body by Death Cab For Cutie is my favorite song. I looove it and can never stop listening to it, no matter how hard I try. It's one of those songs that seriously makes me so happy, helps me de-stress, you name it. I've never heard a song with a title so fitting and a melody that has moved me as emotionally as this song does for me (or a lyric that describes that emotion so well: "a melody softly soaring through my atmosphere"). Hey, I've listened to it 500+ times since May 2006 and I haven't gotten sick of it yet. That's gotta say something.

5) I have an unhealthy obsession with the Juicy Couture and Kitson LA brands.

6) I love traveling around the world... I've already been to France, England, Germany, Italy, and Monaco, but I want to basically go everywhere if I could. I'm going to Sydney in the fall! *so excited*

Finally, I leave you with some pictures of me as a child. Disney fan from birth, holla!

Just a little one year old playing with my Mickey and Minnie dolls...
Just look at this room. Enough said...
Gotta love the MOUSE...
Fast forward 10+ years later... STILL love venturing off to the Disney Store...

Well, that's pretty much it about me. Keep checking back, because I hope to be updating this blog very often. Thanks! =D
