Some Dreams Never Really Die



 Yesterday, Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden got married - continuing the trend of modern-day royals - to a commoner. Yes, I can hear all the aspiring princesses out there going 'YAY!'

Heck, here's a 'YAY!!' from me, too!

I think it's the Disney upbringing (EVERYBODY is a princess!), but it has always been my (not-so-secret) dream to be a princess. So much so that when I was young, I had a 'Princess Walk' and my own tiara and everything. Yes, I was an only child for most of my formative years. Yes, I believe that older siblings would've cured me in two seconds. (Un)fortunately, my imagination was allowed to roam wild and free.

Result:

You may address me as 'Your Highness'. Please curtsey upon meeting me, and be careful not to step on my ermine train.

Momentary delusions of grandeur aside, I have always had this love for royal news, ESPECIALLY royal weddings and marriages. One of my all-time favourites:

 The Crown Prince and the Aussie (Now Crown Princess Mary). Talk about a fairytale!

It really adds to the fairytale element that she's so pretty. And the royal kids are uber cute as well! 

 Makes your heart melt with a combination of 'awwww!' and 'I want that tooo!' doesn't it?

I know, I know, it's not easy to be a princess.. But let me dream. It must be awesome to live in a palace and wear designer dresses and have one's life revolve around producing heirs and attending functions. *inserts self in every royal scenario*


*blissful sigh*

I have been and always will be a Disney girl.

Bring on the unrealistic Princess stories!

Ahaha. I never really had that Princess dream.
Maybe having 2 younger bros prevented any of that (prevention waaayyyy before need for cure ! XD)

But definitely a Disney fan too ! No harm in dreaming of a fairy tale life :D *teehee*

But, there's been a new definition of a fairy tale life/ending and being a "Princess" -- watching "Princess and the Frog" XD
