That type of stuff makes me want to scream! It can be so hard sometimes to find a staple piece. Of course, getting pants altered can help, but that can also add up in the long run. So a good way I fix the shirt-to-jeans ratio without needing to wear a belt with every outfit is by <a href="https://amzn.to/3oQVycd" target="_blank"><b>wearing a bodysuit</b></a>.</span></p><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><a href="https://amzn.to/3Hl4fBA" target="_blank"><b>Bodysuits</b></a> are the best way to ensure that my shirt stays in place and that in case my pants lower just a tad, it won’t matter because all you’ll see is my shirt! Plus <a href="https://amzn.to/3Vhmca3" target="_blank"><b>bodysuits are so flattering</b></a> on any body type! Not convenient when you need to use the restroom and you’re unhooking yourself like a baby with a diaper—but nonetheless—they’re super cute and convenient. Especially if you find your favorite brand then you just buy one in every color!</span></p><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">It will take some time to test out different materials and brands that you feel comfortable in, but once you do—seriously buy one in every color! They go with every outfit and you can easily transition from a day-to-night fit with just a few accessory changes. <i><a href="https://amzn.to/44d369l" target="_blank"><b>Happy shopping</b></a>!</i></span></p><br /><br /><br /><div style="text-align: right;"><i style="font-family: inherit;">xoxo, Michele</i></div><div style="text-align: right;"><i style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></i></div></span></span><br class="Apple-interchange-newline" />

A 2023 Endocrine International Society meeting confirmed that the number of cases continues<br />to increase, with up to 10% of the female population now formally diagnosed with PCOS. This is largely<br />thanks to improved access to more <a href="https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37580861/" target="_blank"><b>clinical resources and research</b></a>, allowing healthcare professionals to<br />understand the condition. That said, the opposite is true for laypersons.</div><div><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br />While most doctors can now easily spot PCOS among patients, most women struggle to recognize the<br />condition. As a result, the World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that up to 70% of women with<br />PCOS remains undiagnosed. While totally manageable, PCOS does have serious and chronic implications,<br />which is why it’s important for women to have a better grasp of this condition.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /><b>What is PCOS?</b><br />PCOS is a relatively common hormonal disorder that affects up to 1 in 10 women of reproductive age.<br />This condition occurs when a woman’s androgen levels are higher than what is medically deemed normal.<br />In terms of the cause of PCOS, this remains unknown, although many doctors think it has to do with<br />lifestyle and genetics.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br />Many times, women tend to think that PCOS only has to do with menstruation and fertility, but in reality,<br />its impact is far wider. Apart from causing irregularities with periods and conceiving a child, PCOS can<br />also affect a woman’s physical appearance and increase the risk for serious diseases. Specifically, a recent<br /><a href="https://www.endocrine.org/news-and-advocacy/news-room/2023/endo-2023-press-piltonen" target="_blank"><b>report on PCOS complications</b></a> reveals that women with the condition are more likely to develop heart<br />disease and diabetes down the line. In many cases, PCOS manifests as excessive body hair, weight gain,<br />male pattern baldness, acne, and unpredictable menstruation. The fact that there is no concrete PCOS<br />trigger and symptoms can be subtle (or not present at all) is largely also why many women don’t realize<br />they have it until later in life.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /><br /></span></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img alt="PCOS 101: Let's Talk about the Hormonal Condition You May Have" border="0" data-original-height="3200" data-original-width="4800" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAfyS1Oft32dqkNdUPaHhokCwgnUbuusy76S6TvYaEYvLAxUlXTYbtTGQTPJqiqJQdqP4Mc-w0jfEG6-Rdt-Ji0ow12aSDiy-OC6aF-vtbicCQI15NJJTkw0qRkycME7wAVgyGyrViBel2OPo73_mMO-Wl41yIg0I_TKKSdLQX4PaI5-G7szaN2PbA_xkF/s16000/pexels-photo-3771830.jpeg" title="PCOS 101: Let's Talk about the Hormonal Condition You May Have" /></div><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>Is it curable?</b></span></div><div><span style="font-family: inherit;">Unfortunately, there is no present cure for PCOS as a whole. That said, several management methods<br />have been proven effective. Chief among these are prescription medications that address key PCOS<br />symptoms. Case in point, obesity and being overweight occur in about 80% of PCOS patients. This is<br />concerning because while there is no one “healthy” body, chronic obesity can cause serious issues like<br />hypertension, stroke, and fatty liver. As such, <a href="https://www.weightwatchers.com/us/blog/weight-loss/if-you-have-pcos-these-weight-loss-medications-may-help" target="_blank"><b>PCOS weight loss medication</b></a> is a common component in<br />many patients’ care plans. Using medications like Metformin, patients’ insulin resistance is regulated,<br />thereby making it easier for them to shed extra pounds and avoid the aforementioned weight-related<br />complications.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br />Apart from oral medications, there are also topical treatments prescribed for PCOS. For instance, many<br />patients are told to use <a href="https://www.verywellhealth.com/pcos-acne-treatment-and-skincare-5211319" target="_blank"><b>acne-fighting creams for PCOS</b></a>, like clindamycin. These typically come in cream<br />or gel forms that control bacteria on the skin’s surface. This can help prevent hormone-caused breakouts<br />from worsening.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img alt="PCOS 101: Let's Talk about the Hormonal Condition You May Have" border="0" data-original-height="4000" data-original-width="6000" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_5HRX1omoV8LZp6kYHBMTM3NmKBOpcypJ-d0wt9eaBb1qF0ukFc_Q3I7n3hiwCoEq3WWQdMvnTJFIhKavrOMGSC8Te6aGojcQZn5K-qm7OdKLrQ9J0C3ieo6pCNpfD0tlzx1nFLEO58BDUHhLQfAfuS-FxCXcktB2P_MqZfEvyg3XLFLgVFgLOw_zl0ur/s16000/pexels-photo-1351238.jpeg" title="PCOS 101: Let's Talk about the Hormonal Condition You May Have" /></div><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>Life with PCOS</b><br />Although PCOS can be scary, and it should be taken seriously, that doesn’t mean your life has to be<br />anything but happy and healthy. What’s important is you find professional help to address this diagnosis,<br />should you have it, so your recovery can begin. For many women, even just targeting one aspect of PCOS<br />can result in significant improvements. To illustrate, studies in BMC Medicine note that even losing just<br />5% of your initial total body weight can already alleviate many PCOS-related issues. That said, even if<br />you don’t have PCOS, it pays to invest in positive lifestyle changes like eating a <a href="https://www.micheleonel.com/2023/01/why-i-chose-to-become-a-vegetarian.html" target="_blank"><b>balanced and ethical diet</b></a>, exercising more, and stressing out less. This way, you can reduce your risk for PCOS and improve your overall wellness.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: inherit;"><h3><div style="text-align: right;"><span style="font-family: inherit;

Hand sanitizer is not my jam, my hands feel sticky and it always smells bad. Even if you use the spray ones they then just make my hands super dry. So <a href="https://amzn.to/3mNDMFA" target="_blank">hand sanitizing wipes</a> are the way to go! I used them for everything—wipe my hands, wipe up the coffee that spilled in my car, wipe my face…doesn’t matter, I would go through so many packs of these because they were just <a href="https://amzn.to/3JfpB3x" target="_blank">so convenient</a> to have on hand.</span></p><br /><ol start="2" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-inline-start: 48px;"><li aria-level="1" dir="ltr" style="font-style: italic; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; list-style-type: decimal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre;"><p dir="ltr" role="presentation" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><a href="https://amzn.to/3JggFuW" target="_blank"><b>Chapstick</b></a></span></p></li></ol><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 36pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">I always have to have <a href="https://amzn.to/403vuHY" target="_blank">chapstick</a> on me and while I had probably two or three different kinds in my work bag, that was such a pain to dig through while I drove.

More freedom, more confidence, and a better understanding of the world. But as we get older, we also see our body change. Everything from our skin to our hair. Some of these issues include bald spots, loss of hair, and hair thinning. Everyone is different. Genetics, hormones, nutrition, and stress can cause hair loss. There are several ways to fix these issues and many natural ways to get fuller, thicker hair.</span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="line-height: 18.4px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="line-height: 18.4px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 16.866667px;"><span><b><span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 18.4px;">Practice Good Hair Care</span></b></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 16.866667px;"><span><span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 18.4px;"><span style="line-height: 18.4px;">One of the best ways to prevent further hair loss is to take good care of your existing hair. Avoid harsh chemicals which can damage your hair and make it more prone to breakage. Use a gentle, sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner to keep your hair clean and healthy. Be careful not to overheat your hair with styling tools, such as straighteners or curling irons, which can damage hair follicles and cause hair loss.</span><o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 16.866667px;"><span><span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 18.4px;"><br /></span></span></p><p class="MsoListParagraphCxSpLast" style="line-height: 107%; margin-bottom: 8pt; mso-add-space: auto; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; text-align: justify; text-indent: -0.25in;"><span><span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 17.120001px;"></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 16.866667px;"><span><b><span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 18.4px;">Kerastase Control</span></b></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 16.866667px;"><span><span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 18.4px;"><span style="line-height: 18.4px;">Investing in high-quality haircare products can make all the difference when dealing with bald spots and thinning hair.

I don’t even care to go into details I’m bored just writing this. <i>Next!</i></span></p><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">*TW* </span><span style="font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">This book does contain suicide and alcohol addiction.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></div></span></center><center><span style="font-family: inherit;"><iframe frameborder="0" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" sandbox="allow-popups allow-scripts allow-modals allow-forms allow-same-origin" scrolling="no" src="//ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com/widgets/q?ServiceVersion=20070822&OneJS=1&Operation=GetAdHtml&MarketPlace=US&source=ss&ref=as_ss_li_til&ad_type=product_link&tracking_id=michelekatsar-20&language=en_US&marketplace=amazon&region=US&placement=1950209040&asins=1950209040&linkId=5d4a4662d8cf9c86b483ec19b4bbaec7&show_border=true&link_opens_in_new_window=true" style="height: 240px; width: 120px;"></iframe></span></center><center><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></center><center><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></center><center><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span id="docs-internal-guid-a6eda8f8-7fff-19c1-9c58-ec1252c5e071" style="text-align: start;"><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">“</span><a href="https://amzn.to/3oXxEeM" style="text-decoration: none;"><span style="color: #1155cc; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-weight: 700; text-decoration-skip-ink: none; text-decoration: underline; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Maybe Now</span></a><span style="font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">” by Colleen Hoover</span></p><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">If you read my previous post about books I’ve read recently then you know that I love the characters from </span><a href="https://amzn.to/3LEltg0" style="text-decoration: none;"><span style="color: #1155cc; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; text-decoration-skip-ink: none; text-decoration: underline; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">“Maybe Someday” by Colleen Hoover</span></a><span style="font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">.

I thought that this was a reprint of an original book but from the male character’s pov. Like how Stephanie Meyer did it with “Midnight Sun.” And I thought, “SWEET!” I can skip the whinny female pov book and read the male pov. I just have always gravitated towards male-character pov books/chapters. Except that’s not what this was and I basically skipped two previous novels 🤦🏼♀️. I have the other two novels, but I don’t think I’m going to read them. This story is cute and all but <i><b>*SPA*</b></i> the dude is her teacher!!! I don’t care when or how they met. I don’t care that she’s 18 and I don’t care that they didn’t date until after she graduated—HE WAS HER TEACHER! The whole story is so cringy to me.

Of course, you may want to buy some fun snacks and drinks, but besides that, you really just need some food, a blanket, a bag, and some fun activities to do.

We literally build a fort in the living room using all of our blankets and pillows, bake some cookies (or get a bowl of ice cream 😋), and have a movie night in our fort.

My boyfriend set up the living room to look like a restaurant, complete with flowers and candles on the table, and a curated playlist on our Amazon Alexa. Plus he ordered food from our favorite restaurant and set it all up so it wasn’t in take-out boxes on the pretty tablescape he had set up. Then we both got all dressed and he “picked me up” by knocking on the bedroom door to take me to the “restaurant.” We ended the night with a sunset view, wine, and dancing—all right in our living room! It was seriously the CUTEST thing ever and I love the effort he put into this. You can truly make a beautiful date with just a little creativity. </span><a href="https://youtu.be/477dVO-RqMY" style="text-decoration: none;"><span style="color: #1155cc; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; text-decoration-skip-ink: none; text-decoration: underline; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><b>Click here to see our Themed Dinner Date</b></span></a><span style="font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">.</span></p><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-style: italic; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Cooking Together</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Going off of “themed dinner dates” there’s also the simple task of cooking together! Stay in, pour yourself a cocktail or mocktail, and cook your favorite recipes together. And do like a full-course meal too! Think salad, appetizer, main course, and dessert. Be creative, put all tech devices away, and just unwind with one another.</span></p><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-style: italic; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Movie Night</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Yes—you can have a movie night at home, but we all know that one. Make it more fun by building a fort, sure, but if you’re looking to get out of the house or see the latest Marvel movie then you’ll most likely wind up at the movie theaters. But movie theaters are crazy expensive nowadays ($15 for popcorn really?). So instead, scope out when $5 movie day is at your local theater. For us, that’s typically on Tuesdays anytime before 7 p.m.—which is fine with us because we have a bedtime, so the earlier the better 😂. But this is a great option to get out of the house without breaking the bank!</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">These are just some of our favorite frugal date ideas—what are some of yours?

Let's start with the staple of Disney Springs. If you're looking for some shoppig and good eats, Disney Springs is a great place to go. They always have live entertainment, fun exhibits and unique places to eat. We went to the Coca-Cola store which has a "Bar" at the top floor. You can get flights of Coca-Cola products from around the world, unique floats and more. This is also where we experienced Coca-Cola Cold Brew for the first time and OH MY GOD! I have been trying to re-create this at home and I haven't quite figured it out, but I will. We also got to try Gideon's Bakehouse for the first time—except the cookie I selected wasn't in our order 😭 and I was the onen who wanted it the most!! Oh well, guess we'll have to go back.</p><p><br /></p><p style="text-align: center;"></p><center><blockquote cite="https://www.tiktok.com/@michelekatsaris/video/7210976790775418155" class="tiktok-embed" data-video-id="7210976790775418155" style="max-width: 605px; min-width: 325px;"> <section> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@michelekatsaris?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="@michelekatsaris">@michelekatsaris</a> disney springs with my parents 🫶🏼💕 <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/orlando?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="orlando">#Orlando</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/orlandoflorida?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="orlandoflorida">#orlandoflorida</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/orlandophotographer?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="orlandophotographer">#orlandophotographer</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/orlandoblogger?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="orlandoblogger">#orlandoblogger</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/orlandobloggers?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="orlandobloggers">#orlandobloggers</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/thingstodoinorlando?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="thingstodoinorlando">#thingstodoinorlando</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/disneysprings?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="disneysprings">#disneysprings</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/music/Married-Life-From-Up-6891415480632870914?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="♬ Married Life (From "Up") - Geek Music">♬ Married Life (From "Up") - Geek Music</a> </section> </blockquote> <script async="" src="https://www.tiktok.com/embed.js"></script></center><p></p><p style="text-align: center;"><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img alt="Exploring Central Florida" border="0" data-original-height="3840" data-original-width="2160" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9xqE_Q8RM48Bz3_s9rtS3QH8vEOJW2QKqJ3QQcHgbOH-O4jst6fduNZSSm9RKGV6tKCUj64-x1PCwtbf9nVRQL1tcjNfbNaI5SqD_QQAf-NBTrLoh7FiLyoA-nA0PoRPYoApZks2pIAWE6WTU11ebQ8afdKk6YSGvauzL_222FjnJSBR1bGttCy6CHQ/s16000/IMG_4118.JPG" title="Exploring Central Florida" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img alt="Exploring Central Florida" border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi5v9yCjIqpVddsAIua0m5l1osgeUL75vBujT_b77bsU4_HMPvEpqn_u5WU0fNHeTXrslreYdZaGCDqJXyuz5rgStCsH1IgrDDZLVKHXotK6_7IQmUW_tHD7ERZQCWd9c5HnbHc85lPBixXk4jFEaxexgxBOgCYUly52wBHAkcEpBCtQ0YyFgk3e8HEYg/s16000/IMG_4122.HEIC" title="Exploring Central Florida" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img alt="Exploring Central Florida" border="0" data-original-height="3840" data-original-width="2160" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhu3G23sKQNdj7bS8I3BpjXQub5cNFtN3bwvL7v9W8t0uz3N_9ljHsmgslc-eDaHQ26cXZPN-NndfHFcRue5mw91T9A2hwIWrCu2HGYn7zbBzTsmzd9D_KjGrgz0rpGA-eD3V5hkTqxlfhx7nmfSoB2d6mpGWHpntZIxh3h_t9wKIE349cwsoAK3YAbng/s16000/IMG_4119.JPG" title="Exploring Central Florida" /></div><p style="text-align: left;">One night my parent's and I went out to dinner and went put-putting.

Okay, let's be honest we didn't get any work done 😅, the cats were too cute! This is a fun and affordable activity in Central Florida. You get to play with cats at a coffee shop for only $10—yes please! The best part is that all of these cats are adoptable. So if you fall in love with any of them you can actually adopt them! I almost took home the one-eyed kitten he was just so cute. I can't wait to go back!</p><p><br /></p><p style="text-align: center;"></p><center><blockquote cite="https://www.tiktok.com/@michelekatsaris/video/7226108083351588142" class="tiktok-embed" data-video-id="7226108083351588142" style="max-width: 605px;

There's not much else to say about this day because theme parks are so much fun. And we got so lucky that the best rides had short waits, we rode The Hulk twice in a row! My dad had a Duff Beer at Moe's, we rode the Hogwarts Express and just had so much fun. I can't wait to take them to the Disney Parks next time they come.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img alt="Exploring Central Florida" border="0" data-original-height="3840" data-original-width="2160" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWGRHTzSdl7xYbc0hlKS5qB7c_VEgR6J5Mpw8D3PbMt2RTnD8O2w2Fka-tuKUHeiPnl1em6vGI2Dw5Uvey3-G9uQM98IcXdYHr-RkV3azaCFs0wespjh0EbeVTmSndhh71sZwQcz5pyYakQK-KL9xQXO7Mp84IHxoF1UxJvCC9pdABgz-iM4nW2tndoQ/s16000/IMG_3763.JPG" title="Exploring Central Florida" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img alt="Exploring Central Florida" border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0L018Qpr3To4VevpxYL9ka-j3A8p31zs1j4a_M8wFhMlCezL9C0BMJzrHz4l0QYOCrTNjJ_F4693hS_qwMxxaYxXjM33gcLD0RFV5VTq34pEkuslD_RMkRmsgjkH_2Vlp9GHHaKjMiOGig_DTQjSK0SuTCAgKTYDI-Cq13lzRswzSnrXFfLph21zn-g/s16000/IMG_3739.HEIC" title="Exploring Central Florida" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img alt="Exploring Central Florida" border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiemOGm0jjf4sOK6yi_Ga69Wo6B535Yhi_jZxXQLERwpOgSIWrn-nW7i1th7a4Zyg7oVgQct-DpkXWHmGqBKLXTufgJqYCDWDZGTodZvLXezjdIHmHmM3NC8XAsBvspfjFWMBj53SDLPuTJldqhPzWFsNfpq_PGokCWkKwTmAc8Kw7L8Qp76vZJBQpKXA/s16000/IMG_3740.HEIC" title="Exploring Central Florida" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img alt="Exploring Central Florida" border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGx05sqCCa6nUed6TJnO7GXU1KEXLLmkDQoifZ0XFBHPt0gtLi2V465EygfXGXhKfy7Dh0SzJHTXHFd-366oxW4_RwUOf1AHYM0djHaLzWhoKLa8diiFkEPTNJra_rQ0jXWkCd1OBQISY395tiCXQUPgX-2tGPeMnBZkLNvk9hnVCV8TLvnRbSs4tEHQ/s16000/IMG_3747.HEIC" title="Exploring Central Florida" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img alt="Exploring Central Florida" border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEip6_xHLUgWVFvs0WWNOvaHzv5whUofv3NSbSzj12eW5l_2NgmiRf0KqZHO_DcEni_IOStxbr9MZl9CdyhBr9_yUERDePRtP3R5LLpCEUyF_MfIlJfVZlbacEmVMSPtv-HBSEV7xjDYq2TYG9C4xucls-DnxHKL__0ZYn9n4y0KWOwgZt7Ok4zYZsriqg/s16000/IMG_3748.HEIC" title="Exploring Central Florida" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img alt="Exploring Central Florida" border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKhYK_2MUhL3ijd0bXYcrI1cQ2OpsoazTV7RAHwPExDcrWIu7aLDS6QdTU3eDFIlbt7pcdpNsIoCJhPPRkDM1z4YdRkSEDn1Re5RzeiWOFSJ0nnqgjGWhklZMRjmFutCKlPFSQ7symhFZcuHlwE9duJu8etvIQwJoGT7a_Bm34TBbl50LmplWLnwpgZw/s16000/IMG_3751.HEIC" title="Exploring Central Florida" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img alt="Exploring Central Florida" border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiza0ds_CzwTsjPtHSlId5mueXfrm71eUw3e3s3tOqrd43-btNJTNhr-0O73Y1QZVJsqxmCCsYz2T5lFxRaZSoAr0MJ0GsGcAZI7Z9jeV4LGF2NmgOutyoJRcth9Fu1m135WiY6cBg9rP6PwZUskJS46P_EU46hd9crsbJFKxyNKOVYA4l1Pn9jREbNUQ/s16000/IMG_8503.HEIC" title="Exploring Central Florida" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img alt="Exploring Central Florida" border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizuJNHymNHxmInJ539bOc0YgnbmInb9m3o9metaDpxUsQUqn4pOX7Gzu0shjvExXOpArKVEVvE9ojcmv91fNFO6dM0GFu9g9y8Sz7keXENiALzX8f1JC8spv3ypDMVRiDv50XCixPp6ly4C6FAaoAe8gfPYBC9jMGo8cHMcMoCUpGOCPwG8_3iGbJfRg/s16000/IMG_8504.HEIC" title="Exploring Central Florida" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img alt="Exploring Central Florida" border="0" data-original-height="3840" data-original-width="2160" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjyJ3H4Ggdzh-WF9Gao3Beaa-djsaFeDiHGfyUJPAfDQL70BpUoLpUsW9C_eOTWipePtzvxruFCMhkbpu0ZXFKlLcgh5c8L4Ti-L5JCz-uzpVNXXW-ZLBNLzjUCIeXDkHJhrpyqJls_yJUKgQq2XHRatQQT5kd264iQdOtMm7hl9QemDD0UAfhdEXKKaw/s16000/IMG_3762.JPG" title="Exploring Central Florida" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><p style="text-align: left;">One of the last few days we went to Winter Park, which is one of my favorite parts of Central Florida. We went to some of the coolest shops I've ever been to including Gasp which is all over TikTok. Ugh, I wanted to buy everything. We ate lunch at Cocina 214 which was so good. It was the perfect bite before we walked up and down the strip. If you're looking for a great like old-town-esque vibes, I suggest Winter Park.</p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: center;"></p><center><blockquote cite="https://www.tiktok.com/@michelekatsaris/video/7214243068797570347" class="tiktok-embed" data-video-id="7214243068797570347" style="max-width: 605px;

Pothos Plant</span></span></div><div><span style="background-color: white; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">The pothos plant is considered one of the easiest houseplants to care for. They can grow using basically any type of soil (no need to buy expensive stuff), can grow in a vase of water or pot of soil, and can be in direct sunlight or low lighting. And since pothos is easy to take care of, this lovely plant is an easy way to add some green to your home.</span></span></div><div><span style="color: #313637; font-style: italic; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: #313637; font-style: italic; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Tip:</span><span style="color: #313637; font-style: italic; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> Be sure to research the different types of pots for plants.

Aloe Vera</span></span></div><div><span style="background-color: white; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">The aloe vera plant is not only super easy to take care of—but it’s a useful plant! You can use the “juice” from the aloe to alleviate pain such as sunburn or dry skin. Stick this plant with bright light and water thoroughly but not often. In fact, if watered too often, the roots can rot. The care for this plant is low maintenance and the plant itself has benefits so it’s worth the “work” that comes with it.</span></span></div><div><span style="background-color: white; font-style: italic; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span style="background-color: white; font-style: italic; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">3.

Similar to aloe vera, water the plant thoroughly, but not frequently.

Truth be told, it's been in the high 80s most of the month down here in Central Florida so it's basically summer as far as I'm concerned. Which means my dog has shed his winter coat and it's time to play outside!<div><br /></div><span><a name='more'></a></span><div><br /></div><div>I have a husky (for those who didn't know) and despite what most people think, huskies love the sun! He would lay outside all day if he could. His double coat actually helps to keep him cool, but still, when we touch his paw pads or the top of his back if he feels pretty warm, we have a few ways to cool him down.</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><i>1. <a href="https://amzn.to/3K0gDrr" target="_blank"><b>Pools</b></a></i>—We purchased him a plastic $10 pool from Wal-Mart and he loves it. We throw some small treats inside and it's as if he's bobbing for apples as he sticks his whole face in to grab them 😂. This is a very inexpensive way to give your down <a href="https://amzn.to/3K0gDrr" target="_blank">his own space</a> to cool down as needed.</div><div><br /></div><div><i>2. <a href="https://amzn.to/4329Mqi" target="_blank"><b>Splash Pads</b></a></i>—I wasn't sure how Oliver was going to handle <a href="https://amzn.to/3KnlYJJ" target="_blank">this one</a> given that he hates rain, but once I pushed him through it a few times he seemed to like it. He really likes the center of it more than the actual "splashing" part, but whatever makes him happy.</div><div><br /></div><div><i>3. <a href="https://amzn.to/3GdJB5Z" target="_blank"><b>Cooling Mats</b></a></i>—We keep this bad boy outside so he can lay on it whenever he feels too hot.

The best way I can keep my mind in check is by using the notes app on my phone. I have multiple lists on there including a never-ending to-do list. Once I think of something (no matter how small) I always just jot it down. If I'm planning a party, thinking of a blog post idea, or need to pick up my dog’s new prescription, I write it down.</span></p><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">That’s where everything goes at first. Then it gets transferred over to Google. Google Suites is amazing. I’m still new at fully utilizing it, but it’s just the one place I know where I can access and easily maneuver everything.</span></p><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><a href="https://apps.apple.com/ag/app/google-calendar-get-organised/id909319292" style="text-decoration: none;"><span style="color: #1155cc; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; text-decoration-skip-ink: none; text-decoration: underline; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Google Calendar</span></a><span style="font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> is the #1 tool that I use.

Again, depending on what it is (pick up something, call this person, or just a reminder to finish a task) I add it as a task on the day I want it to get done. And I don’t put in the time because this is a task that just needs to get done no matter what time. Then when I complete it I mark it as done. What I love though is that if I don’t get that task done it will move to the next day, and the next day, and the next. It never goes away until I mark it as “completed.”</span></p><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">“Reminders” work similarly to “tasks” on Google Cal where they won’t go away until it’s marked as “completed.” But I use “reminders” as alerts when something NEEDS or IS going to happen that day. Examples include when it’s time to change my Invisalign, start a new job, go to yard sales or have lunch with my grandma. Things like that. Where they are going to happen that day and they’re not “to-do’s” in my book.</span></p><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Then I utilize the colors that Google Cal has to offer. For example, I use navy for birthdays, light purple for vacations, red for bills, gray for office hours, light green for paydays, pink for events, yellow for appointments, blue for meetings, dark green for holidays, and so on. Having a color coordinate calendar not only is aesthetically pleasing to me, but I'm able to quickly see what my day will look like based on the colors that are used that day.</span></p><br /><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">That’s my Google Cal situation. You have to find what works for you, but this is how I stay on top of my schedule on a day-to-day basis. Then when I am in the middle of work, I will use the “stickies” app on my Mac computer to create a to-do list or reminders that I need to get something done for work. Or a physical pen and paper to-do list. I’m </span><span style="font-style: italic; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-position: normal;

It started to pick up as we were actually leaving, so go during the work week and during the day time or right after work. They had so many food trucks for you to choose from and I think at any time they can have up to almost 60+ food trucks. When we went there weren't that many, but still enough to get a full meal from! I mean seriously, you could get an appetizer at one place, an entrée at another and multiple desserts and coffees from others. I will say that (at least on the day that we went) we saw a few of the same companies' food trucks. There was a lot of the same types of cuisines and even the same owners. So I would be curious to go on another day to see if anything changes. It would have been better if theree weren't repeats of the same stuff, but still, for a quick and cheap bite to eat—this was a pretty good spot!</div><div><br /></div><div>Have you been to World Food Trucks?

Then in the back, they have a butterfly encounter where you can learn about butterflies and also hang out with them. I don't want to say you can "hold" the butterflies but with the nectar jars, they will land on you. The encounter is $6 a person and there's no time limit. You walked through a beautiful garden and see a ton of birds and loose butterflies, then in a little enclosure is where you can hang out with the other butterflies that will land on you and hang out.

This means we're going back to a year ago when the planning began. Originally I wanted to be in Greece for my 30th, but a friend told me how crappy it is during this time of the year and to just wait a couple more months and go in the late summer/early fall. Okay, fine, but now what do I do? I always had this theme of 2000s Emo/Elder Emo/MySpace Emo—whatever you call it—and once I settled on the theme, from there I was unhinged.</span></span></div><div><span style="color: #202124;"><span style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(32, 33, 36);"><br /></span></span></div><div><span style="color: #202124;"><span style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(32, 33, 36);">While starting to plan this party I originally thought that the party would be in Northern Virginia since 99% of my friends and family live there—and I was too at the time! But the last fall as you all know, my boyfriend and I bought our home in Florida. So what did that mean for the party? I had two choices—plan for the party in NOVA and fly home for the weekend or save a crap ton of money and invite all my friends and family to come to Florida for the weekend. I knew it was a big ask but as I mentioned in <a href="https://www.micheleonel.com/2023/02/my-birthday-weekend.html" target="_blank">My Birthday Weekend</a> blog post I appreciate all the people who did come down for my party because it meant the world to me. And it just showed how many people I have in my life that love and care that much about me ❤️. </span></span></div><div><span style="color: #202124;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

caret-color: rgb(32, 33, 36);">So we re-directed and started planning the party to be in Florida the weekend of my birthday. I invited probably close to 100 people and a little over 30 people came. Mostly people from Virginia, but we also have some friends and family in Florida too which was a great way to blend our old and new worlds together. Since I invited a lot of people I decided instead of sending the same text over and over again, I actually made a birthday website that had all the party info, the mandatory theme (linking a <a href="https://www.pinterest.com/micheleakatsaris/_saved/" target="_blank">Pinterest board</a> for inspo), and a place to RSVP. The website was password protected and had all the information anyone would need.</span></span></div><div><span style="color: #202124;"><span style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(32, 33, 36);"><br /></span></span></div><div><span style="color: #202124;"><span style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(32, 33, 36);">As it got closer, I started cracking down on people's RSVPs because I offered everyone to stay with us at our house. Our house did come fully furnished so we had about 20+ spots for people to sleep between all the couches, pull-out beds, air mattresses, and actual mattresses. I also decided to <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@michelekatsaris/video/7199804978775510318?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc&web_id=7188254889728902698" target="_blank">create welcome bags</a> for the people staying with us and with the leftover items I made some goodie bags for people who were just coming to the party. I set up all the bedrooms and totally transformed my home into an Airbnb 😅 (pun intended). </span></span></div><div><span style="color: #202124;"><span style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(32, 33, 36);"><br /></span></span></div><div><span style="color: #202124;"><span style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(32, 33, 36);"><br /></span></span></div><div><span style="color: #202124;"><span style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(32, 33, 36);"><center><blockquote cite="https://www.tiktok.com/@michelekatsaris/video/7199804978775510318" class="tiktok-embed" data-video-id="7199804978775510318" style="max-width: 605px; min-width: 325px;"> <section> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@michelekatsaris?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="@michelekatsaris">@michelekatsaris</a> made welcome bags for the 20+ friends that stayed with us during my bday weekend 😜 • <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/30thbirthday?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="30thbirthday">#30thbirthday</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/welcomebagsideas?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="welcomebagsideas">#welcomebagsideas</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/goodiebags?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="goodiebags">#goodiebags</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/dancewithturbotax?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="dancewithturbotax">#DanceWithTurboTax</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/partyplanning?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="partyplanning">#partyplanning</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/elderemo?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="elderemo">#elderemo</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/music/Pretty-Girls-Walk-7107825905426237442?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="♬ Pretty Girls Walk - Big Boss Vette">♬ Pretty Girls Walk - Big Boss Vette</a> </section> </blockquote> <script async="" src="https://www.tiktok.com/embed.js"></script></center></span></span></div><div><span style="color: #202124;"><span style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(32, 33, 36);"><br /></span></span></div><div><span style="color: #202124;"><span style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(32, 33, 36);"><br /></span></span></div><div><span style="color: #202124;"><span style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(32, 33, 36);">The next thing to do was plan out the details. Ohhhhh, I had so many details to include. The theme was very important and I made sure everyone knew if you didn't at least, at the bare minimum, show up wearing all black then you would be asked to leave. I was not going to spend all this time and money planning a party for people to half-ass it. And while I love my friends, they have half-assed in the past. So I had to make it SUPER clear that I was not fucking around. To make it easier for people I provided multiple options for people to ~spice~ up their fits just in case. Starting with party merch. I told y'all I was extra AF. I created custom t-shirts that say "Michele's 30th" on the front and "It Was Never A Phase" on the back. I ordered 45 shirts in various sizes and gave one to everyone staying with us as well as put one in the goodie bags. I then ordered <a href="https://amzn.to/3Xx4IWF" target="_blank">50 custom rubber bracelets</a> that say "Michele's 30th" on one side and "Elder Emo" on the other and put it in everyone's bags as well. I then set up a beauty bar by the entrance complete with <a href="https://amzn.to/3IwnvgO" target="_blank">temporary tattoos</a>, <a href="50 custom rubber bracelets" target="_blank">fake facial piercings</a>, <a href="https://amzn.to/3YFqN6U" target="_blank">black eyeliner</a>, <a href="https://amzn.to/3k17SED" target="_blank">choker necklaces</a>, <a href="https://amzn.to/3Xx4IWF" target="_blank">extra merch bracelets</a>, <a href="https://amzn.to/3YYInlU" target="_blank">glow sticks</a>, <i>and </i>those <a href="https://amzn.to/3k1f5EF" target="_blank">thin black silicone bracelets</a> we used to wear back in the day. I'm so, so happy I had this station set up because people really used it! Everyone had temporary tattoos on their necks, hands, and face—it was hilarious. And the boys actually used more eyeliner than the girls did 😅. It was a great detail to include! Next to the beauty station was a voting station for the best-dressed. In order to get people excited about the theme and actually participate I also held a best-dressed (male and female) that everyone voted on. The winners freakin' deserved it too, because they brought they killed it! Across from the voting section was a photo booth—<i>duh</i>!</span></span></div><div><br /><center><blockquote cite="https://www.tiktok.com/@michelekatsaris/video/7200564453291707691" class="tiktok-embed" data-video-id="7200564453291707691" style="max-width: 605px; min-width: 325px;"> <section> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@michelekatsaris?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="@michelekatsaris">@michelekatsaris</a> turning my house into a 2000s emo party 🖤🎶🍾 outfit reveal at the end 🕷️ • <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/30thbirthday?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="30thbirthday">#30thbirthday</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/emothemedparty?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="emothemedparty">#emothemedparty</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/emothemedbday?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="emothemedbday">#emothemedbday</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/2000semo?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="2000semo">#2000semo</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/millennial?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="millennial">#millennial</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/millenialsoftiktok?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="millenialsoftiktok">#millenialsoftiktok</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/elderemotiktok?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="elderemotiktok">#elderemotiktok</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/elderemo?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="elderemo">#elderemo</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/elderemomillennial?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="elderemomillennial">#elderemomillennial</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/music/There's-a-Good-Reason-These-Tables-Are-Numbered-Honey-You-Just-Haven't-Thought-of-It-Yet-227193028321353728?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="♬ There's a Good Reason These Tables Are Numbered Honey, You Just Haven't Thought of It Yet - Panic!

Shout out to Rocio for this idea, we set up the laundry room to be a confessionals room. You know in reality tv how the cast will do private interviews in front of a green screen—we wanted to do the same thing! I purchased <a href="https://amzn.to/3Ea6SF6" target="_blank">a small camera</a>, a <a href="https://amzn.to/3k4sM5K" target="_blank">green screen backdrop</a>, and <a href="https://amzn.to/40ZoT2x" target="_blank">a ring light/tripod combo</a> for people to record their "confessions" throughout the night. It wasn't perfect but man was it funny! First of all the camera kept dying so I had to keep charging it throughout the night, then it was like the same 3 people to do confessionals so I had to explain it over and over and really push people to go do it hah. But once I explained it for the 100th time (or maybe it was after my 100th birthday shot <span style="background-color: white; text-align: center;">😅) I just let people do their own thing. I'm shocked I found the camera the next day because it looks like people took it out of the confessional's room and just started filming the party haha. I loved editing this and putting it all together because this quickly became a staple or "must-do" for every party now. GREAT IDEA RO! </span></span></div><div><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: white; text-align: center;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: white; text-align: center;"><center><blockquote cite="https://www.tiktok.com/@michelekatsaris/video/7201945911419882794" class="tiktok-embed" data-video-id="7201945911419882794" style="max-width: 605px; min-width: 325px;"> <section> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@michelekatsaris?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="@michelekatsaris">@michelekatsaris</a> my 30th birthday 🙌🏼 • <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/emo?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="emo">#emo</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/emobirthday?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="emobirthday">#emobirthday</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/emobirthday%F0%9F%92%94%F0%9F%A5%80%E2%9B%93?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="emobirthday💔🥀⛓">#emobirthday💔🥀⛓</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/elderemo?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="elderemo">#elderemo</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/millennial?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="millennial">#millennial</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/30thbirthday?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="30thbirthday">#30thbirthday</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/music/Misery-Business-6705031762403133441?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="♬ Misery Business - Paramore">♬ Misery Business - Paramore</a> </section> </blockquote> <script async="" src="https://www.tiktok.com/embed.js"></script></center></span></span></div><div><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: white; text-align: center;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: white; text-align: center;">Now let's focus on decorations.

I originally had planned to wear one outfit and then do an outfit change, but the first outfit I was going to wear you've already seen because <a href="https://www.micheleonel.com/2023/02/30th-birthday-photoshoot.html" target="_blank">I wore it in my birthday photoshoot</a>, and I was freakin' tired by the time it was ready to get dressed hah. So I decided to ditch the outfit change and wear outfit number two. I freakin' LOVED my outfit. To start off I wore these <a href="https://amzn.to/3S4Tzv8" target="_blank">high-waisted black cargo pants</a>, then I layered <a href="https://amzn.to/3IulwcE" target="_blank">a fishnet shirt</a> underneath this <a href="https://amzn.to/3IulwcE" target="_blank">corset top with mesh sleeves</a>. It sounds odd, but the combo together really gave it that edgy look I was going for. I wore my <a href="https://amzn.to/3IEoSdr" target="_blank">checkered high-top vans</a> and <a href="https://amzn.to/3lFiLfG" target="_blank">black french-tipped press-on nails</a>. But the crown jewel was <a href="https://amzn.to/3IrAgIj" target="_blank">this black and purple long wig</a>. No one even recognized me when they first got here <span style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(32, 33, 36); color: #202124;">😂. It definitely gave me the Emo-themed hair that I had always wanted, but since it was a wig and we were jumping around dancing all night it eventually had to come off. </span></div><div><span style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(32, 33, 36); color: #202124;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(32, 33, 36); color: #202124;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(32, 33, 36); color: #202124;"><center><blockquote cite="https://www.tiktok.com/@michelekatsaris/video/7203137120733498667" class="tiktok-embed" data-video-id="7203137120733498667" style="max-width: 605px; min-width: 325px;"> <section> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@michelekatsaris?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="@michelekatsaris">@michelekatsaris</a> my outfit was everything my teenage emo heart could have wanted 🖤🥀🎶 • <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/elderemo?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="elderemo">#elderemo</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/30thbirthday?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="30thbirthday">#30thbirthday</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/birthdayoutfit?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="birthdayoutfit">#birthdayoutfit</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/2000semokid?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="2000semokid">#2000semokid</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/2000semo?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="2000semo">#2000semo</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/scenekid?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="scenekid">#scenekid</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/elderemomillennial?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="elderemomillennial">#elderemomillennial</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/elderemotiktok?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="elderemotiktok">#elderemotiktok</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/music/Shake-It-6696413056659884034?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="♬ Shake It - Metro Station">♬ Shake It - Metro Station</a> </section> </blockquote> <script async="" src="https://www.tiktok.com/embed.js"></script></center></span></div><div><span style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(32, 33, 36); color: #202124;"><br /></span></div><div><br /></div><div><span style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(32, 33, 36); color: #202124;">And now...the party!!!</span></div><div><span style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(32, 33, 36); color: #202124;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(32, 33, 36); color: #202124;">I loved every minute of the party. And what I loved most was that everyone (to this day) is telling me how much fun they had at the party which makes me so happy. Watching all of these videos back you can just see all the smiles on everyone's faces. There was absolutely no drama, no fights, no arguing, no annoyances—and if there was, everyone, respected me enough to take that shit outside. We played beer pong, took photos, announced best dressed, talked, took bday shots, and RAGED on the dance floor. DJ Gabe crushed it with the playlist and we played Emo music until about 3 a.m. Then we switched to trap house music and partied our asses off until almost 6 a.m.—freakin' crazy! I think all but three people crashed at the house haha. And as promised I had a place for everyone to sleep. It's hard to explain how much fun this party was, how do you put into words one of the best nights of your life? Even writing this now I'm in tears because it was everything I wanted and more. It beat every expectation I had—which is really hard to do as someone with high expectations. My friends who came all the way from Virginia I just want to say <b>THANK YOU</b>. I know it was a lot to just come to Florida for the weekend, but truly with all my heart I love you all so damn much and am so honored to be one of your friends. </span></div><div><span style="background-color: white;

I had a theme and mandatory dress code that everyone had to adhere to. Since most of my friends and family live in Northern Virginia I knew that coming down to my new home in Florida was asking a lot, so I wasn't shocked when a lot of people weren't able to make it. But for the friends that <i>were </i>able to make it—they made me feel so special, loved, and celebrated all weekend long. I shared a whole separate post about Oliver's birthday (<a href="https://www.micheleonel.com/2023/02/olivers-7th-birthday.html" style="font-weight: bold;" target="_blank">click here to read</a>) and my birthday party (<a href="https://www.micheleonel.com/2023/02/my-2000s-emo-themed-30th-birthday-party.html" target="_blank"><b>click here to read</b></a>) but the whole weekend was so special to me that I wanted to be sure to document it so I always remember 🥰.<div><br /></div><span><a name='more'></a></span><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img alt="My Birthday Weekend" border="0" data-original-height="1170" data-original-width="2080" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhjEDsxpWrGeKssXREOlsLe_U5mdnVA1SDECkg9QihWQgSk4Ufo6xyoHuhTIcLya8IsyNyqZsOaOTRBXZGOVSuziKy8IAugKIWwSoCFCzBz6fQgDTzCQiJwyzPeR9G02mfDLcwGxSW91ya0_RkjoR0Aqa2zm6XPWlQcvBxP41EEwmH8G7w9yiWxxEIwHA/s16000/fb6bb075-e6b2-44c6-90bc-c2305737e61d.JPG" style="text-align: center;" title="My Birthday Weekend" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img alt="My Birthday Weekend" border="0" data-original-height="2080" data-original-width="1170" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj1X9gTV4EY89DLbTMd-LQQ5RIApXjzbMxd9nUg2ab2hTbrB4nwNE455m8qnRFBIHQtulgpRhJaY5fxXovlFLsYX80iOuRyrpCoB23yl45HG8ms7547Vi8OYtAEGLh4x2MmtDO2YR_NFSZPLD4U7dZ6JhqCRvEEjWtCFQPeVC449qJVq_F19WaFSPx1AQ/s16000/27ADE899-C5F5-403D-B9EB-EF26754C31EF.JPG" title="My Birthday Weekend" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img alt="My Birthday Weekend" border="0" data-original-height="2080" data-original-width="1170" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1Ih5EbGSVY9EHunqlnUE5OP9rabKn1ChgoIiQQSktbtsTgCQC1H6shyGw7oEK0HQIH_c6nW3XjTIz9KuAWWXnF0aJBthOfEANuJ4oKCneyQB2x8fs0wJcFytjIKKhN8H1NECqPTIWk_SZpTod7qJHyhfkyqrEMFMhDqM_XhiJKGi2kcXPKw2rfIjqmA/s16000/E786AC5F-87B3-4F78-BAB2-16B005765FBF.JPG" title="My Birthday Weekend" /></div><div><br /></div><div><b><i><br /></i></b></div><div><b><i>Friday, February 3rd</i></b></div><div>On the day of my and Oliver's actual birthday, I ran around to get some of my <a href="https://www.micheleonel.com/2022/02/birthday-freebies.html" target="_blank"><b>birthday freebies</b></a> #IYKYK and when I got home I had the most beautiful flower arrangement from my parents.

We literally got to Universal Studios around 5 p.m. and stayed until they closed! I was bummed that the Rockit was out of commission, but still, we moved through the park and knocked out everything we wanted to do with the limited amount of time that we had. While we were sippin' on Butterbeer and Pumpkin Juice in Diagon Alley I just looked at all my friends with such appreciation. How cool is it to say I got to spend my 30th birthday in Harry Potter World with my very best friends ❤️. After Universal Studios we got dinner at an Italian restaurant not too far from the parks where another friend who just got to town met up with us. Then it was time to head home to celebrate Oliver's birthday. <a href="https://www.micheleonel.com/2023/02/olivers-7th-birthday.html" target="_blank"><b>Click here to read about Oliver's 7th birthday</b></a>.

After going to bed around oh 5 a.m. 😅, I woke up to a surprisingly not so trashed house (thanks Marie for cleaning before I woke up 😜). My besties had to hit the road earlier since they drove and a few others had early flights, so I didn't get to see them that morning, but about 6ish more friends didn't have flights booked until Monday morning. So we all hung out around the house, cleaned up a little bit, ordered breakfast thanks to Mama Katz for surprising us, and chit-chatted about the previous night. I love doing these recaps after a party with friends because as the host you don't see all the drama that unfolds, but thankfully, there was no drama!! Just some good laughs as we talked about the party. Everyone had temporary tattoos on from the previous night (including myself) I really liked these little ones I had by my elbow and for some crazy impulsive reason I decided to go get another tattoo! For those who don't know <a href="https://www.micheleonel.com/2021/07/i-got-tattoo.html" target="_blank">I only have one tattoo</a> and it's because I'm such a baby with needles. I don't know what got into me—30 really changed me okay 😂—but my friend Maria and I did walk-ins at<b> <a href="https://www.fallenheroestattoo.com/fh-florida.html" target="_blank">Fallen Heros Tattoo</a> </b>and <a href="https://www.instagram.com/rivera_jacobs_tattoos/" target="_blank"><b>Jacob Rivera</b></a> took such good care of us. He made us laugh a lot and took <i>most </i>of my nerves away. I decided to get my last name in Greek right above my right elbow. I freakin' love it. I am obsessed with how it looks, how cute and small it is and I honestly keep forgetting it's there. I also love that I did this with one of my best friends and it will be a memory I definitely never forget!

After we got our tattoos we stopped by Publix to get ingredients to BBQ it up with the rest of the gang back at the house. We played poker, ate burgers and ice cream, and laughed <i style="font-weight: bold;">so damn much</i>! Thinking about that night I'm laughing now. We stayed up not too, too late hah, but afterward, we all crashed and the next morning we hugged goodbye, and just like that the house was empty again. It was surreal that I had over 20-something friends come to visit me for just a weekend. As I said before I felt so loved and the word grateful doesn't even begin to cover how special I felt. I truly love all of my friends so much and I already miss them a crap ton 🖤.</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b><center><blockquote cite="https://www.tiktok.com/@michelekatsaris/video/7200580297400831275" class="tiktok-embed" data-video-id="7200580297400831275" style="max-width: 605px;

I had been seeing this thing all over my for you page and even hometown friends had posted about it so I knew <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/CnPxfTshub1/" target="_blank">I had to go</a>.<span></span></p><a name='more'></a><p></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://hpforbiddenforestexperience.com/leesburg/" target="_blank">Ticket prices</a> range depending on the day you go (weekends cost more vs. a work day) but for $65—this was totally worth it. Especially if you don't leave near Universal Studios and need The Wizarding World to come to you. This is a great way to get your HP fix that you've been craving!</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img alt="Harry Potter and the Forbidden Forest Experiennce" border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZmztglu3ywNZTJjRWWc5S5VuZRlwrRlRmrsNKmiYc23n2rI2LrgcVFFZEG1_A7lohv5sZtWauigU_LgInIeApQbVF7CnxC8S4px_9oSF-dig4W3Qfxa6u7TI3hGOWh_WNXSTEo4Am9VE9gOZAR6MSV5aSOvCEJPncQNVxk_hzwesuWBw1FBm-eCJ2PQ/s16000/IMG_9320.HEIC" title="Harry Potter and the Forbidden Forest Experiennce" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img alt="Harry Potter and the Forbidden Forest Experiennce" border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="4032" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2hl-1TMivZA-HnFiCZy5lu2Dswtu24NBFut1bOsHepZGsjlaXcSM5v4nStJ4Eeky60FCIIsrhCducRbU4Re6Im268VHTCG8HBmP6CYuYCp2Lu58vwa1ntRMqZnniNcNHwk7wJz93tg0cc3PHX2MCKBgKGVNDpboqRpkh3DBJufBkqJg_iyJq_IsIPJw/s16000/IMG_9359.HEIC" title="Harry Potter and the Forbidden Forest Experiennce" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img alt="Harry Potter and the Forbidden Forest Experiennce" border="0" data-original-height="3840" data-original-width="2160" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjs4_tVtl2-1UxJ7sF6-Yvy8gNWtOf8nTbk61w9dG4O6DKJDsb6vXG6JRA6KAosyL0Tv8DmWZT7YCvu6o2IL513KJJ6SdSI3Iq9Yls_RarxsrVLENUv5E0-O4ob79pHnDZ9AJ3ZN6fRf8ffHgXyRiCxIhUXvMNBKnTk7z7GcgTOF_y2i4_Vie3Rw_Jeg/s16000/IMG_9344.JPG" title="Harry Potter and the Forbidden Forest Experiennce" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img alt="Harry Potter and the Forbidden Forest Experiennce" border="0" data-original-height="3840" data-original-width="2160" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCsfyy9qnrlYGrfLMk3mkw5XChEDaUyjHWRKYPPxjosfZFf5ZsPgch7Fv7LRCcyUzzGKLg7oBaziA5PhJ0Xzn4vyuGJtSvoHojD_lDlOj5rit6Cg55Dehnp8YYMZNk5vl-_1Xfus4ml9O707sRZwdIDx_B2aMeyKls7quTvm_a8huYrpBNsLZQVMeS7w/s16000/IMG_9377.JPG" title="Harry Potter and the Forbidden Forest Experiennce" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img alt="Harry Potter and the Forbidden Forest Experiennce" border="0" data-original-height="3840" data-original-width="2160" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgmJb0PgsTDs2n7CsaeHAeqn34b_gKIWxkZthLbudg6P2qx1ZOhucOuUg2PqKI81ahfMXKcno6g5-0EoUa9WOqb_WYscsg_-Itf8ohewVQcsLKUhBSjP9MrDzRR1srDSPIAjEZxreiP3aEQcP6WJi_MX9-RezWFLxw-3r8ImB1fmX3RzQ8QTFA7JL4n_A/s16000/IMG_9294.JPG" title="Harry Potter and the Forbidden Forest Experiennce" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img alt="Harry Potter and the Forbidden Forest Experiennce" border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHfY8l4jrpFtNGf6bMZth13xk3EZ2eraCtc6Pm6k2gWFe5AT02fnrlTtR6ko7x-EbyS0UHpMJ-JY6dWtgVOvUv520rCiiLyszII1cuO2yNIRgYBmJwoA00PddEFCaYRbU83ZJdGIFfehkrU6WlSK0zC6F3WfuCvbJWRRR-s25CNBZ2TxK8oaJkKgr7nw/s16000/IMG_9317.HEIC" title="Harry Potter and the Forbidden Forest Experiennce" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img alt="Harry Potter and the Forbidden Forest Experiennce" border="0" data-original-height="3840" data-original-width="2160" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0dZv8W5eJfZUJ2MIFtohCbshx8DcqPe8j4Joa_YTtJnB_1kx3-Hgh-Vm54VwhcfFbUtoyB9b8uszzSvquojwXKZwqeNlIIGhAsZ9pRJLyQ7AujU8lELUX_ZfKscN-KHD1X3hwoeAdMHoZHtm9Am1CGF2TxwyTBKPAZYD3n8tfGorR_fQHDRaBAY8jFg/s16000/IMG_9353.JPG" title="Harry Potter and the Forbidden Forest Experiennce" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img alt="Harry Potter and the Forbidden Forest Experiennce" border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="4032" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg14m8US1VsHWAQBW0H3kDME_NzH9-Kb-eWedNw9iVKUysDPZ5z9wJAuymFNShAjo3hQ9fYoPjcerWlKZGEs5ase55YOr2iLKqXGtmmKLZwkC-41O8x8fIQTUDAlYsr3EDO5izWHBeZhyA6lgVGCUjv2iARv-RzIku_vtTlwYDdlA9gROlcY53nMJJ42Q/s16000/IMG_9360.HEIC" title="Harry Potter and the Forbidden Forest Experiennce" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><p>So to start off they have a great photo op with the Stag Patronus along with food and merch. And don't worry—it's all themed! There's Butterbeer, Honeydukes Sweets, and various British food selections. Then in a group, you're escorted into the forest. This is a self-paced walk so don't feel rushed! </p><p><br /></p><p>You get to walk through various themed parts of the forest and see certain events that happen throughout the series. Including casting your own Patronus, saying hi to Hagrid and Fang, bowing to Buckbeak, finding Nifflers, Aragorn's layer, and seeing the Death Eaters' marks. There are some spots that are spooky and give you chills which totally goes with the vibes.</p><p><br /></p><p>Halfway through there is a place to use the restroom, eat, shop, and even roast marshmallows! This experience is very interactive and entertaining. It really is perfect for all ages too and I don't know if we just went on a good day but everyone was so nice and considerate of other people's times and space. Unlike sometimes when you're at the parks and sometimes people stop in the middle of the road 😒—that wasn't the case here. It was a fantastic experience and I loved having a little magic to end the holidays.</p><p><br /></p><p></p><center><blockquote cite="https://www.tiktok.com/@michelekatsaris/video/7186790897298885934" class="tiktok-embed" data-video-id="7186790897298885934" style="max-width: 605px; min-width: 325px;"> <section> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@michelekatsaris?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="@michelekatsaris">@michelekatsaris</a> @Wizarding World HP forbidden forest experience ⚡️ • <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/harrypotter?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="harrypotter">#harrypotter</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/harrypotterforbiddenforest?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="harrypotterforbiddenforest">#harrypotterforbiddenforest</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/harrypotterforbiddenforestexperience?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="harrypotterforbiddenforestexperience">#harrypotterforbiddenforestexperience</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/wizardingworld?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="wizardingworld">#wizardingworld</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/wizardsofwaverlyplace?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="wizardsofwaverlyplace">#wizardsofwaverlyplace</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/music/Hedwig's-Theme-6596919447879944966?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="♬ Hedwig's Theme - Harry Potter Soundtrack">♬ Hedwig's Theme - Harry Potter Soundtrack</a> </section> </blockquote> <script async="" src="https://www.tiktok.com/embed.js"></script></center><p></p><p><br /></p><p><span style="font-family: inherit;">Have you been to the Forbidden Forest Experience?
