Congrats New Disney Movie!
Welcome new Disney movies! You are here to look at all the things you should not do in a Disney movie. You must follow these guidelines to be victorious.
1. Happy ending? I think not: Disney movies should never have happy endings. Everybody loves a super bad ending that does not make any sense. If you have a bad ending everybody will be so happy with it, that they will watch it again.
2. Love stories are for babies: Disney movies are not all “lovey dovey”. Disney movies have action, not girly love stories. People love action, fighting, and killing. When you have killings, you have to make sure they are super bloody and have their insides showing. That’s what makes a Disney movie a Disney movie.
3. Evil villains don’t exist: Never have evil villains in a Disney movie. They make everything complicated and they never actually kill anybody, they are always saved by true loves kiss. So why have them?
4. Princes and princesses: Never have princes or princesses, they make the whole movie boring and it makes people mad and if you have princes or princesses they will end up having a love story and that is no good.
5. Action, Explosions, Cussing; Disney movies have action, explosions and most important...cussing. Cussing is the most important, everybody loves swearing in every sentence. People love action and explosions, people dying and blowing up makes everything so much better.
6. Fight for the one you love...no thanks: People in Disney movies never fight for the one they love, the people in trouble will understand, I promise.

Encyclopedia of My Ordinary Life
Animals
Animals are my favorite thing in the world.. They make life so much easier and happier. Animals like dogs, cats, birds or fish. I love all sorts of animals but not the scary kind. Animals has always fascinated me though, like the way they act, they have their own personality. Some animals comfort you and are always their for you when other people aren’t.
Basketball
Basketball is my favorite sport of all time. Basketball is my passion, I belong on the court playing. It just comes so naturally and easy. I have been playing basketball since I was like 8 and every since then i have just loved it. I love being aggressive and giving all I got into the sport I love. Basketball makes me happy and I love everything about it.
Cars
I love cars, everything about them is exciting. The look, the smell, the way it drives, most of the cars I like are old cars and fast ones. Old cars are so interesting, the way they used to look in the old days and the type of style different cars had. I like old hot rods and the revving of the engine, it’s the most amazing sound in the world. Going to see cars race is so much fun, you get so into it, but not the races that just around in an oval, the races that are straight and they are timed, those are the races I like watching.
Dogs
Dogs are the most lovable type of pet and most enjoyable. They are like your best friend that you have never had. They are always their for you and they always get excited every time they see you. They jump on you and lick your face, it just makes you happy inside and you can never stay mad at them. Once you get attached it is so hard letting them go. Then they become like family and that is a bond nobody can break..
Elephants
Elephants are gigantic, beautiful creatures. Their trunk and ears are so magical. You can ride on their back and go on a journey through Africa. Elephants are wonderful
French Fries
French Fries are the best type of potato food. They are salty and very delicious. French Fries are probably my all time favorite food from any restaurant. All the different flavors and spices make it special. They just make them so yummy, especially Red Robin. Red Robin has the best kind of french fries because they have there own spice and it tastes amazing. I don't know a person who doesn't like Red Robin’s french fries or any type of french fries at all.
Gum
Gum has all sorts of flavors and each one takes you on a special journey, your taste buds go wild. Gum is very tasty and different. They have ice cream, pie, and fruit flavors! What will they come up with next? They should have oreo flavored gum and chip flavors and have the three course meals in one piece of gum, like Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
Horses
I have always wanted to ride a horse. Horses look so cool with their long hair, and the way they trot. The way they run, it looks so majestic. Horses make me so much happier than my sister.
Ice Cream
Ice cream makes me happy and feel so much better. I like most of the flavors and they taste very yummy. Chocolate, Cookie dough, Cookies and Cream, I’m getting hungry just thinking about it. I could eat ice cream for days but if I did I would probably get fat.
Jumping
Jumping is fun, during basketball you feel so proud if you jump and knock the ball out of their hands. When they shoot and you just wack! When they do that, that means you got packed and everybody goes “oohhhhh!”, but it isn’t fun when they do it to you. You can also dunk and show off your hops. Jumping is an amazing ability to have.
Koalas
Koala are so cool, they look so fluffy! I heard that they smell good. Koalas look very mysterious, the way they climb trees very slow. I want to pet one and I want one as a pet. That would be so awesome, you could have a cuddle buddy.
Lions
Lions are ferocious animals and scare me. If they lived everywhere, i would probably die. But I think their mane is pretty cool, it looks fluffy. Their teeth are so sharp and scary. I don’t like lions because they could eat you.
Mickey Mouse
Mickey mouse is what started everything, all the great Disney movies and shows. Mickey mouse was one of my favorite characters. He is a great cartoon and his laugh is amazing. I love drawing Disney characters, they are my favorite. Disney is a great man, he had a great imagination and amazing movies that kids will always love.
Night
I love the night, it is so mysterious. I love looking at the stars and the moon. It is a wonderful sight to see. I wish I lived in the country where I could see all the stars and just stargaze forever. I also wish i had an amazing telescope to look through, that would be the best gift ever.
Octopus
Octopi are so cool, the way they swim with their eight legs. It’s funny the way they move though. Octopi are oddly shaped creatures, they have a big head (that looks like they can’t control) and have legs coming out of it. Their head looks so floppy and weird.
Platypus
Platypi are very special and cool creatures. Their tail looks like a beavers and they have beaks that looks like a duck. Platypus make a weird noise too, well i haven’t really heard it, only on Phineas and Ferb but it sounds pretty weird on there.
Quiet
Being quiet is not my thing, if you know me I am not very silent. Once you get to know me I am the loudest person ever. I am shy around new people though, I don’t know why. I have to completely trust you for me to be myself around you. It takes me a long time for me to be able to trust you though. It once took me 8 years to trust somebody, I don’t know why though, I guess I have trust issues or something.
Rollie-pollies
I like rollie-pollies, they are so cute. I’m not sure if you know what those are, but they are the little bugs that roll up in a little ball. My mom used to call them that and it just stuck with us throughout the years. I’m not even sure what they are actually called, that is pretty sad.
Spongebob Squarepants
Spongebob Squarepants has to be the best Tv show in the whole wide world. Every episode is so funny to me, even if I have seen every episode a million times, I still love Spongebob. My mom says we watch it too much. We have Netflix so we watch it all the time, we watch it so much that I think Netflix took it off. We can’t find it anymore on Netflix., it is ashame. I loved Spongebob and I always will.
Talent
I have a very special talents. I can sing, dance, play basketball, draw, and burp my ABC’s. I know I’m a girl but it is funny to me. I like to sing even though I might not be very good at it, but that is okay, it is not going to stop me from singing. I also like dancing because it expresses who you are, but I like dancing to the ones who already have dances made up for them. I like to play basketball and surprisingly I am very good at it. I love basketball, that is my natural talent and so is drawing, it just comes naturally.
Up
I love the movie Up, it has to be one of the best Disney movies ever! I love Kevin, Doug, and Russell. They are so funny! I Love Disney movies, I could watch them forever. Up has a great story and it is sad in the beginning but is so good at the end. It is a must see!
Vision
Vision is what helps all of us see. If I couldn't see, I don't know what I would do. I wouldn’t be able to see all the beauty of nature and the world. I am so grateful that I can see. It would be so hard for me, I don’t think I could handle it.
Weapons
Weapons are used to protect yourself. I like going to the shooting ranges with my dad and practice. It is so much fun. My dad has a twenty-two, it reminds me of a sniper, and I love snipers. I want to be one, kind of. I like all different kinds of weapons but I’m not like overly obsessed with them or anything, I just think they are special in their own way. They have different characteristics and that is what makes them so cool!
X-ray
When I was little, I broke my arm and I had to get x-rays done. I broke my arm when I fell off the couch. X-rays aren’t fun and I don’t like them, I feel confined. I have also had a CT scan and I felt claustrophobic. I can’t handle it, I have to have room to breathe and space. When somebody is close to me, I can’t handle it either.
Yelling
Yelling is annoying. I hate loud people, even if I am loud myself. People who yell out words only want attention. I just laugh loud. Yelling is not necessary, only if you really need to get somebody's attention or you need medical attention. Yelling makes you feel sad too. And if you yell too much, you can lose your voice and then you will be regretting it.
Zoo
I love the zoo because it is filled with a lot of different animals and I like to watch them. They do a lot of unusual things, like monkeys walk funny. They look more natural up in a tree. The zoo is an exciting place to be and kids love it. You can learn different things and see lots of different animals. I love animals and I want to have something to do with animals for my job because i will never get bored.
Animals are my favorite thing in the world.. They make life so much easier and happier. Animals like dogs, cats, birds or fish. I love all sorts of animals but not the scary kind.
