Missing Disneyland and Watching Disneyland Livesteams to Ease My Wanderlust

Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

It’s mid July and I’m officially calling it the summer when all I do is work and stay at home. Again. I had a feeling this summer wouldn’t be like other summers, and it hasn’t. Yet, when it comes to taking time off work and leaving my house for a vacation, that hasn’t changed.

Since the 4th of July, I decided to try to watch more enjoyable entertainment. There really isn’t much I want to watch on TV anymore, so I’m usually going though my stash of DVDs and watching things on YouTube while I work. I was thinking about watching some streaming shows instead, but I sometimes get too distracted to sit in front of the TV or computer to watch an episode all the way through. I feel more comfortable pausing and stopping DVDs and YouTube videos instead. One of the YouTube videos I began to watch are livestreams from Disneyland.

I really don’t like watching livestreams because anything can happen on them… and some of it isn’t good! I watched livestreams from Disneyland a few years ago because I missed the parks and wanted to see how everything has changed. Even though I was afraid to watch livestreams, I found one person I really liked and began watching his videos until I felt contented with Disneyland content.

On the 4th of July, I decided to watch the fireworks on the livestreams. I couldn’t go outside and watch fireworks from my house this year, so I thought this would be a great way to celebrate the 4th of July without needing to go outside. This ended up working out really well.

It’s been almost two weeks since I began to watch livestreams from Disneyland again and I’m really enjoying it! I miss Disneyland a lot and wish I could travel there this year. Although I’m not sure which livestreamer is my favorite, I have found two that run clean livestreams. (No cursing. No lewd comments. Ect.)

Even though I miss visiting Disneyland (And California Adventure) and exploring the parks myself, and wish I could go on a vacation, seeing the parks live from wherever I am has made me feel better. It has also given me ideas for where to go and what rides to ride!

 

That’s all for now! Thank you for reading!

Favorite Ambiance YouTube Channels for Christmas

Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

For the past few years, I began to enjoy watching ambiance videos. Well, I actually don’t watch them. I usually keep them playing the background while I do my work. Especially when I’m under a lot of stress. Having ambiance videos playing makes me calm down and feel better.

Since it is the holiday season, I’m usually listening to Christmas themed videos. After listening to quite a few videos, I decided to write a post about my favorite ambiance YouTube channels with Christmas themed videos. I hope you enjoy the channels I list and their videos!

Last year, I decided to re read any books I read many years ago or didn’t read, but wanted to. My intention was to decide which books I want to keep and what I didn’t. My plans didn’t work out like I hoped, but I did finish reading a few books. One of these books is Beneath the Glitter by Elle and Blair Fowler.

Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

It’s the time of the year when ballets all over the world are performing the classic Christmas ballet, The Nutcracker. 2021 is the first year when audiences will be able to watch the performances in person after the start of the Corona/ Coivd-19 pandemic started in 2020. Even though many ballet companies are holding live performances of the ballet with live audiences, there are still many ballet companies that posted the full show of their Nutcracker performances on YouTube to watch. Here are my favorite versions of the ballet that can be see as of the publishing of this post.

Disclaimer: All the videos I will linking to and talking about are posted on official YouTube channels of the ballet company.

Ballet Company YouTube Channels That Are Streaming The Nutcracker Performances- 2020

Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

Well, this holiday season hasn’t turned out the way I wanted to. In addition to a lot of things happening in my real life (Including a health scare of one of my relatives (It has nothing to do with the pandemic)), I also missed a few days of Blogmas! To be honest, I suspected I may miss a few posts this year because this year has been so weird, but I still hoped it wouldn’t happen. Despite this, I still plan to make 25 or more posts this month… even if some of those posts are on the same day.

During this odd and stressful holiday time, I discovered several ballet companies are posting videos of their 2019 performances of The Nutcracker. This made me extremely happy to see because the videos are not clips of the performances, but of the whole entire show. Although I don’t have the time to search each ballet company’s YouTube channels (Or try to search and see if they actually have a YouTube channel) I wanted to share some of my favorite ballet YouTube channels that did post videos of their Nutcracker performances in full.

 

Well, that’s all for now! Thank you for reading!

After watching as many as I could find, a few of the videos stood out to me as my favorites. Continue reading “Favorite Starbucks Secret Drink Recipe Tiktok Compilation Videos” →

Starbucks YouTube Videos I Love To Watch

Published on by essieofwhoLeave a comment

Over the past few months, YouTube suggested new videos I never liked to watch or even considered watching. Since I was bored, I decided to give them a try. Some of the videos I started to watch are about making Starbucks drinks.

I don’t drink Starbucks, except whenever they serve hot chocolate, because I don’t like coffee. Despite this, I found watching a lot of the Starbucks videos I found on YouTube so far very interesting and enjoyable to watch. Since I enjoyed them so much, I wanted to share three of my favorite Starbucks YouTube videos I found so far. Continue reading “Starbucks YouTube Videos I Love To Watch” →
