6/4/2010 5:50:07 PM ImMarielle Posts: 55	Ready? And go! Ok, I guess I'll start. My name is Mariel and I'm the shortest member of the NJ Trio. Tinkerbell is #1 in my book of top Disney characters and Aladdin is numero dos. I enjoy whips of dole; scrumptious delicacies; random dancing/singing; and laughing with friends, especially W.E.D.friends! Fantasyland was my home in 2004 and maybe someday I'll move back. =)

6/4/2010 9:44:40 PM Escapay Posts: 78	And I'll start...next? My name is Albert and I'm the middle member of the NJ Trio, both age-wise and height-wise. I used to be the tallest, but Reuben always drank a lot of milk, and so he eventually grew an inch taller than me. Some of my favorite Disney characters are Chip 'n' Dale, Donald Duck, and Aladdin, and if I could marry a princess, it'd be Belle. I do not enjoy whips of dole but I will have a citrus swirl. I will randomly dance only if it has been choreographed and rehearsed well in advance with backup dancers in the middle of Main Street, set to something lively like "Fortuosity" or "Put On Your Sunday Clothes", as if life were really a musical (like that's likely to happen...), I enjoy laughing with my friends too, especially the W.E.D.friends! Adventureland was MY home in 2005 and I would certainly love to move into the Swiss Family Treehouse. --

6/5/2010 4:08:27 PM Disneyfan80 Posts: 2749	My name is Erik, I was born and raised in Minnesota but I hope to move to Florida soon. I am 29 years old until September when I hit the big 30. My favorite Disney movie is Beauty and the Beast and my favorite Disney/Pixar movie is UP. I am obessed with all things Disney, I read all the books, watch all the shows and movies, I listen to all the music, and I find myself on a daily basis looking on various Disney websites multiple times a day. I am currently on work comp with 2 fractures of my spine and 6 ruptured discs, on my birthday it will be exactly 2 years since I have had feeling in my legs and was pain free. Disney helps me take my mind off of things, and for short periods of time it seems to make the pain and suffering go away. A lot of my friends stopped talking to me because of me not being able to go out anymore or not being able to do the things I used to be able to do, so I have made a number of Disney friends that I honestly can say that are better friends then my supposed ex friends so I am happy that my Disney friends put up with me . I am also trying my hardest right now to become a Disney Travel Agent, I tried signing up for the college program but was denied for some reason, not sure why though. I am married since 2007, and my wife and I went to Disney World for our honeymoon, which was amazing. My favorite characters are Belle, Mickey, Goofy, Aladdin, Grumpy. My favorite villains are Chernabog, Captain Hook, Maleficent and Hades. My favorite ride is a tie between Pirates of the Caribbean and The Tower of Terror. I love both Disney World and Disneyland, Disney World is my favorite but Disneyland is amazing because you really get a feeling that Walt is watching over you, just knowing you walk where he did give me goosebumps everytime. I have never had a dole whip, never ate at Earl of Sandwhich. I am really sick of the long Minnesota winter, my favorite sports teams are: NHL (Chicago Blackhawks), NFL (Tennessee Titans), MLB (LA Dodgers), NBA (Orlando Magic), and College (Florida Gators). I am also a huge fan of everything that is Harry Potter and I can't wait to check out the wizarding world whenever I can get down there next. Disney is my life and I wouldn't have it any other way, I look forward to knowing all the wedfriends better and to share in everyone's love of Disney. -- When you feel like giving up, remember why you held on so long in the first place.

I first discovered the Disney theme parks when I watched the Disney Sing-Along Songs Disneyland Fun video, and I've been hooked ever since! So far, I've only visited Disney World, but eventually I hope to visit more around the world! My favorite ride is probably a tie between Star Tours (I am a huge Star Wars fan!) and the Jungle Cruise! I just LOVE Dole Whips Some of my favorite characters are Mickey, Minnie, Jiminy Cricket, The Mad Hatter, and Dopey. I enjoy laughing and talking to my friends, unicycling, playing my violin, and learning about everything Disney! I look forward to lots more laughs and fun with the W.E.D. friends! -- Lightspeed to Endor!

I've been in love with Disney for as long as I can remember. My family would make trips pretty much every chance we got and we would always go see the newest Disney films in theaters. Favorite attraction: Peter Pan's Flight Favorite park: Magic Kingdom Favoite film: Peter Pan Favorite character(s): Peter Pan, Mickey Mouse, Scrooge McDuck, Donald Duck, and it goes on and on and on.

6/18/2010 3:43:40 PM pap64 Posts: 179	Hello! My name is Pedro, aka pap64. I am still relatively new to the WEDnesday Show and From Screen to Theme. I joined on December 23rd, just a few days before Christmas thanks to Albert posting a link on the Ultimate Disney forums. I've been enjoying the show and the people greatly, even though I have not visited any of the Disney theme parks. Regardless, I am still a big Disney fan, love the movies and characters and still see great enjoyment out of this show. As I said, I love Disney movies, especially Disney animated films. I grew up watching them and thus mean a lot to me. I also love Pixar films. I love movies and videogames, especially Nintendo games. I am currently writing for Nintendo World Report, THE greatest Nintendo site on the web. I also have a classic movie blog called Filmstrip Memories. Currently it's Pixar week at the site so make sure to visit it when you can (http://filmstripmemories.blogspot.com/). I also love writing, I do a lot of it when I have the energy, and my dream is to publish my stories and hopefully sell the rights to make an animated film out of them (hopefully I can be involved too). My other dream is to travel around the world, meet new people as well as enjoy it with my friends. --

7/12/2010 2:44:16 PM KramNebuer Posts: 49	It's so great to read everyone's stories here in the forums! Keep 'em coming! Hi, I'm Reuben, the youngest of the NJ Trio and the tallest. I love whips of dole because they're pineapple flavored and non-Dairy so it's a frozen treat I can actually eat! This is my new user name here on the forums because I forgot the password of my old username and I think my e-mail keeps spamming out and deleting my password when I reset it, so here I am! I think I have been obsessed with Disney because my family was. But I think most people know me to be the most obsessed. My first movie I have seen in life wasCinderella and the first movie I had seen in theaters was Aladdin. Then again all this information is applicable to the rest of my family in this group, haha so here's something more interesting: I figured that my more major obsession with Disney started when the 25thAnniversary celebration took place in 1996. I was in 4th grade around that time and I found myself starting to be the fan I am today because I was really excited about the celebration through all the television commercials and magazine articles, etc. We also got cable television around that time and my favorite channel was of course the Disney Channel and my favorite show was "Inside Out," the show that took you behind the scenes of Disney theme parks! I've always been a fan of the theme parks and I even designed my own dark ride/log flume. Since then,I read up on the Disney theme parks wherever I could find information about it (mind you, this was before Internet took off) and I read almost all the biographies on Walt Disney that I could find. In 11th grade, I did my US History research paper on Walt Disney's impact on American culture. I got an A+, too, but I partly think it's because my teacher loved Disney as much as I did. My love of Disney has neve rstopped since then. Even through college I celebrated my obsession and decorated my dorm room with Disney posters and the free lithographs you got from pre-ordering the Disney DVDs at the Disney Store. I also hosted and participated in many Disney Movie Nights at school and proudly shared my collection of Disney DVDs with friends. (I'm happy to say I now own all of the Disney Animated Classics) In addition to Disney, I love baking, movies, music, Food Network, board games,camping, hiking, reading, recycling, community service, airports, peanut butter and pineapple. I love orchestral music and dramatic musical themes and scores from movies and broadway shows!Hooray for John Williams and Alan Menken! I majored in Food Science because I wasn't sure how to major in Disney, haha, and I really wanted to go to baking school, but I couldn't at the time. After graduating college, I went to Disney World then Disneyland then found the W.E.D.nesday Show! It changed my life and I hope it changes yours! I am now in Culinary School for Baking and I hope to do my externship in Disney World or Disneyland and work in their bakeshop and make Disney cakes. In the future, I hope to have my own bakery, create a new favorite breakfast cereal, travel to Japan, and someday, somehow provide a voice to a Disney character. edited by KramNebuer on 7/12/2010 -- "Anything can happen if you let it" - Mary Poppins/Brent Dodge "The grass is always greener as long as you remember to water it." - Monterey Jack (Rescue Rangers)

7/14/2010 5:22:47 PM WDWTravels-Erin Posts: 28	Hey everyone! I'm Erin, I'm 32 and I live in Massachusetts with my husband and 2 boys (Nick age 6 & Jake age 2 1/2). Nick is a little comedian as some of you know...at this very moment he's telling me about secret portals in his bedroom and other dimensions. He is an amazing brother and loves to watch Mickey Mouse Clubhouse with his brother. Jake was diagnosed with Autism at age 19 months and Disney has allowed him to have a connection with his brother. For that I will always be grateful. I have been a Disney fan since before I was born. No, really. We have a photo of my Mom holding my Winnie the Pooh...baby Erin in the belly My earliest Disney memory is of going to see Peter Pan at the drive in when I was about 4 years old. I've grown up with Disney...if you can call me grown up. I'm lucky my husband doesn't mind my Disney obsession...Disney wedding, Disney bathroom, Disney kitchen, Disney everything. My first ever visit to WDW wasn't until I was 17 years old. My Mom, younger brother and I went to FL to visit my Grandmother. We drove to MK. I met Tigger. I cried. Baby bro made fun of me. Good times. Since then, I have visited WDW several times but have yet to go to Disneyland or on a Disney Cruise. I'm a Disney Travel Agent for WDWTravels. I love love love love planning Disney vacations. I work with a great group of ladies (and gentlemen). It's probably the best job I've ever had. Favorite attraction: Splash Mountain Favorite park: Magic Kingdom Favorite film: Cinderella, Little Mermaid, Lion King Favorite character(s): Cinderella, Ariel, basically all of the Princesses, Tigger and of course, the Mouse! There are some other things I love too. Ready? Set? Go! watching my boys play together, Movies & Music, Twilight (Team Edward), Autism Awareness, board games, Boston Red Sox, Broadway shows (RENT is my fave), digital scrapbooking, cookouts and well done cheeseburgers, planning & making lists, dolphins, roller coasters, RANDOM DANCING!, singing in the car (and not on Skype...hehehe), going to see movies at Midnight on their release date, Google, taking pictures There are tons of other things but I'd need to write a book and this page already has an author! So email me, call me, get in touch with me if you are planning a trip to Disney...whether you're a first timer or a 100th timer, I can plan it all for you. All you do is go have the fun! See you on WEDnesday's! Erin Santamaria 877-377-0505 ErinS@WDWTravels.com visit my fanpage for more info: http://www.facebook.com/?ref=home#!/pages/WDWTravels-Erin-Santamaria/123332921011807?ref=ts
