I’ve decided to start a new part on my blog capturing the adventures I go on creating art as a college student. My awesome roomie and new best friend models and two of her photographer friends came up for the weekend and let me tell you, it was a kick ass thing.
Let’s play a game. Would you rather spend $8 on a pair of jeans or $50? Most of you will probably say $8. But what’s the catch?
They’re used
It’s my last week of high school this week. If you read my Introverts Guide To Senior Year you know I normally keep to my self. I have a select few friends that I’ve had throughout high school and I’m happy with that. I woke up today and was excited. It was my last week. Last Monday. I was slightly sad.
While struggling with a mood disorder and anxiety, being truly happy was a huge problem for me for a long time. I finally realized what I can do to be happy all the time. This is a list of things I find are crucial to my happiness
1. Staying off social media
I spent more time with myself than I do with other people yet I’m not upset about it. I’m one of the most low key people I knew. I’m not shy but I probably won’t be the one to start a conversation. Your senior year is filled with tons of events you’re expected to attend and memories you’re “supposed” to be making. So this is my guide, as a fellow introvert, to getting through your senior year of high school.
I recently went to Disney World for the first time! It was my graduation present and it was a blast. My mom and I had the Disney Dinning Plan which included two snacks, one quick service meal (which is a counter service meal) and one sit down meal per person a day. I realized it was much easier to say you have food allergies because the one time my mom said I was vegan and the chef was not too kind about it. They will bring the chef out for you and it’s amazing! I’m going to start day by day and talk about what I ate!
Magic Kingdom
Magic Kingdom was the first park we stopped at. I first had a funnel cake, which I was told was vegan friendly, at Sleepy Hollow. I unfortunately don’t have any pictures of in but man was it good. The next stop was our sit down dinner at the Diamond Horseshoe. The chef prepared a salad, a pasta dish with vegetables, and corn and potatoes for me. For desseret I got sorbet. Later that night I got Dole whip because apparently that’s one thing you can’t miss out on at Disney.
Epcot
My mom and I went to Epcot two days! The first day I used my quick service meal at Liberty Tavern to order their “Chicken”. It’s not real chicken of course but I have definitely had better meat alternatives. I didn’t end up using my snakes the first day but the second day I did get shaved ice!
For our sit-down meals we went to Beirgarden in Germany and Chef De France in France. One of these was the one who my mom mistakenly mentioned the dreaded word vegan but it all turned out okay. At Beirgarden I was very limited, I got potatoes, green beans, rolls, and a salad.
Chef De France was my favorite meal. Not only did we get to see the Epcot lake show from our dinner table the meal was amazing. The chef was so kind and accommodating. I got a roll, french onion soup without cheese, tomatoes stuffed with vegetables, and finally amazing sorbet. My birthday was March 22 so my mom surprised me and he them sing to me!
