1) Formally apologize: To those who I হারিয়ে গেছে my temper with, I sincerely apologize for the way I conducted myself. I truly did not come here to start arguments but to get the opinions of others. I humbly ask that আপনি forgive my passionate responses and know that I promise to work on not losing my temper. No matter how threatened অথবা attacked that I felt, I should not have responded the way that I did and I take full responsibility for that. I'd also like to single out anukriti2409; Angelica_AW & 324anna for special apologies because আপনি guys entered the conversation after things were already tense.
2) Formally introduce and expose a little about myself to the community here so আপনি guys can get to know me. It looks like there is a nice little sense of community here and I really don't want to ruin that (nor did I try to), I'd just like to be a part of it. I am not trying to offend anyone, just let them understand me and where I am coming from. I am making myself a bit vulnerable with this so I hope আপনি guys will respect this.
13. Jasmine: There are some ways we are totally opposite and some ways we are totally similar. We both প্রণয় cats. I could never have a real tiger for a pet because that would be illegal and frightening but if it was possible (in nature and law), I'd প্রণয় to! While we both can be very harsh with our words, I have to at least feel insulted অথবা attacked first before I can respond that way. জুঁই on the other hand can lead with the attack. She has always stood out to me as one of the smarter princesses which is something I can relate to. I think she is better at improvisation than I am but I am good with finding clues kind of like she put clues together about Aladdin. Also জুঁই is far আরো spontaneous than me. I could never just run away on a whim one night, I would have to meticulously plan it out over a longer period of time. She also grew up way better than I ever did, trapped and all.
12. Merida: I didn't understand Merida at first. I was so focused on the first half of the film, for some reason, that it blinded me from the সেকেন্ড half. Thanks to some very passionate and well-spoken Merida fans, I have been able to reassess Merida's character better. First of all, I grew up a bit of a tomboy so I actually completely relate to Merida on that level. I loved climbing trees and running around outside. When I got a little older, I even tried and absolutely fell in প্রণয় with archery that I got to try at a YMCA camp once. (One good thing about my summers was that my mother was always trying to get rid of me so I was available for আরো adventures(?), so to speak.) That being said, I am of a small size and build and would never feel comfortable going off alone the way she did. I am not as ব্রেভ and need company to enjoy the outdoors like that. I would not have disobeyed my parents as much as she did just because I am inherently obedient, even if I completely disagreed at heart. I do appreciate that they showed Merida apologizing at the end of her film and I also always try to apologize when I realize I am wrong. Unlike Merida, I seek আরো উপদেশ for help and therefore would never have taken an action like the one she did with getting that cake from the witch.
11. Aurora: I absolutely adore Aurora and I প্রণয় her movie! I just don't have as much in common with her. She has an amazing opera voice that I couldn't hold a candle to, but I do প্রণয় listening to. I do absolutely প্রণয় dancing as she did and will dance alone like she was in the forest. We both do enjoy nature strolls and could spend countless hours alone in nature. We are both obedient but she is far আরো graceful and poise. In that way, she is everything that I aspire for and try to work on. She makes it look so easy.
10. Ariel: I admit that when I was younger, I did like to pretend that I was a mermaid whenever I got to be in a pool. I প্রণয় Ariel but we really relate the least. I প্রণয় my dad but I didn't get to be around him much when I was younger so I was never a "daddy's girl". I didn't grow up very nice and I don't have any of the nerves of steel that Ariel has. She surely would have called me a guppy because I would not have wanted to hang out around the sharks. I also would not want to be right in the center of everything like Ariel did. Unlike Ariel, I have a deep respect and understanding for the purpose of rules. I also don't collect a lot of knick-knacks. One thing that we do have in common though is the natural curiosity, especially for other cultures etc. I am always interested in learning about new things and I like to hear "the other side" of things. Also we both like to dance.
9. Elsa: Like Elsa, I understand what it is like to feel a sense of duty and then "let it go" but in a different sense. Although I am আরো outspoken than Elsa, I think we are equally good at being alone. Unlike Elsa however, I would have sought আরো help with her issues rather than run away from help. We are both very rational and will say unpleasant things if we feel they are the best for the other person. (Note the entire conversation where Elsa denies her blessing to Anna & Hans.) Also I am too maternal to have just left Anna on her own for so long the way Elsa did after her parents died. While I'm okay with being alone, I don't seek it out. I would've kept Anna company and tried to raise her to the best of my ability. I also would not have sent Anna to dance with the old duke, even for a joke. Just not my style of funny.
8. Mulan: We are both very obedient and very loyal. We are also both a bit clumsy. I completely identify with her desire to be something to make her family proud (except my family didn't reciprocate the loyalty and respect). I প্রণয় that মুলান has a sense of duty and honor that not all of the princesses share to that degree. This is something that I identify with because I believe in duty and honor. I study harder than Mulan, I wouldn't have needed to cheat because I would've been practicing for the test like crazy beforehand. I'm also punctual whereas মুলান is very tardy. I also প্রণয় that মুলান found herself দ্বারা pushing herself through determination and perseverance. This is something I can relate to because I always feel better about myself after achieving a goal and often refuse to give up.
7. Pocahontas (Rebecca): It seems দ্বারা all accounts that she was a loner rather than social দ্বারা nature. I am also আরো of a loner than totally social. I seek some social company (I'm here) but I don't seek crowds. It seems like she was the same way. We both respect and প্রণয় and appreciate nature and want to protect it. One thing she and I certainly have in common is that we left our families behind to live a new life for our future. I have read a lot about the real her, and I have read that she was in প্রণয় with Rolfe when she asked her father for permission to marry him. Because of this combined with the fact that she looks genuinely happy in photos, I think she was genuinely happy with her new life as am I.
For those interested, I have provided link three different biography link 1 claims to be a link
6. Snow White: Although Snow White grew up with her evil stepmother, I grew up with an evil mother. My mother did not try to kill me, but she did try to throw herself at my boyfriend (now husband). I'm not saying they are the same but I understand what it's like living with a woman who hates আপনি for nothing that আপনি personally did. My mother had a total of 4 children দ্বারা 3 different fathers (without marriage to any of them) and left most of the parenting to me. This made me get a bit bossy in the maternal way that Snow White is. Also because I never really felt loved deep down, I too dreamed that one দিন someone would প্রণয় me. Fortunately, that did come true for me with a husband as it did for Snow White. Also, like Snow, I would never have just expected the Dwarves to let me stay for free and would absolutely have offered to help out around the house in the same way she did. In fact, my mother was evicted multiple times in my childhood so I did stay with multiple people and earn my keep.
5. Tiana: Oh, Tiana, do other people see আপনি as sweetly as I do? Since I come from a background where a lot of people (mostly women) do sneaky things, manipulative things, lies, etc. I am sincerely refreshed দ্বারা Tiana's straight-forward attitude. I have been in situations before where no one wanted to tell me what the real problem was and it is greatly disheartening. Like Tiana, I do not get তিক্ত অথবা jealous towards those who have had better lives than me অথবা grew up in better economic situations. The way I see it, we can't control where we came from but we can control where we are going. This is something I completely relate to Tiana about. I can completely relate to Tiana sacrificing all of her social life to reach her dream. My dream wasn't to own a restaurant but to just have a stable and comfortable life. Growing up, my mother got us evicted about 3x অথবা so before I turned 18. I never really got to have a constant প্রথমপাতা growing up (or my own room ever) so it was something I always yearned for, something that was my own. My own নিরাপদ haven. Like Tiana, I did everything I could to achieve this. As soon as I graduated high school, I started working 2 jobs back-to-back to get into my own place দ্বারা the age of 20. I can relate to Tiana's working all night, coming প্রথমপাতা and then getting no chance for real sleep because it's already time to go to work again. I প্রণয় Tiana's no-excuse attitude because that is how I live my life as well. Since I started with less advantages than most and yet still made something for myself, I tend to not really respect "excuses" that come from other people. I don't mean to offend anyone, just explaining where I come from. This is also why I really respect and appreciate people from older generations who had hard lives and also didn't believe in making excuses. It's an attitude I've always had to have in order to make it to where I am today from where I started.
4. Anna: When I am truly happy and truly in my comfort zone, I can be a lot like Anna. I am very spunky and goofy. This is not something I got to experience very much in my life growing up but have experienced আরো since I have gotten married and been happier in life. (The most I was like this growing up was when I visited Disneyland and felt on মেঘ 9.) Anna really makes me laugh because though I wouldn't say most of the same things she says, I can understand why she says them as I think them আরো than say them. I have a very hardy-har-har and punny/play on words sense of humor that kind of reminds me of Anna's quirkiness. I like family friendly humor a lot. We both have a spunky little can-do spirit even in the face of challenging obstacles. (Note when Anna was so determined to climb the দেওয়াল and Kristoff just watched. This scene kind of reminded me of my husband and I.) Anna is আরো impulsive than I am though. I would not have wanted to marry a guy I just met, I would not have asked Elsa at the coronation and I would not have pushed Elsa when she ব্যক্ত "no". We both have had a lot of spare time and filled that with different hobbies, though for different reasons. We both aspire for আরো "sophisticated grace". Since we both don't have a ton of experience socially, we can both have awkward (but sincere) explanations. We can both be pretty playful and get very excited about making plans. Also like Anna, I don't like to get distracted from my conversation. Furthermore I can also be like Anna even when I'm not happy but confused অথবা content. She can be socially awkward and say the wrong things unintentionally like when she tells Kristoff "Ooh that's a rough business to be in right now! I mean that is really..." and then clears her throat to say "That's unfortunate". Additionally, Anna doesn't seem to be great with nuance and I'm not either.(Note when she doesn't pick up that Olaf doesn't know who she is even though she knows who he is.) Also we can both be a bit naïve and believe the best in people.
3. Belle: Although she is not #1 on my relatable list, she was always my পছন্দ growing up. I have loved পাঠ করা বই since I was 4 years old and always wanted to be an author. Belle preferred to be alone with a book then in the midst of a crowd as do I. Actually, I even get uncomfortable after being in crowds for a while. We both found solace in বই and can read our পছন্দ over again. I have also always been interested in travel and প্রণয় the iconic line, "I want adventure in the great wide, somewhere. I want it আরো than I can tell." We have both been outsiders who wanted আরো out of life than our peers. Although I can sometimes get impulsive with my words, I rarely ever get impulsive in my actions. I find this in common with Belle as she seems, to me, to be someone who speaks আরো impulsively than acts impulsively (though she does act আরো impulsively than I do). For both of us, I find this rooted in a stubbornness. I also think we both lean towards the classic princesses without being totally classic. We are also both modest and put off dating and guys to wait for the right one to come along.
2. Cinderella: I grew up with a stepmom and two younger half-sisters that made my life very unpleasant growing up. I can relate to Cinderella's situation all too well, unfortunately. Growing up with parents who were never in a romantic relationship, ever, I had to go back and forth between my father's and mother's. Whenever I was at my father's, he would be very busy working to support his family of 6 (or 7 whenever I was there) so he was hardly around and I didn't see him much. My step-mother hated me because I reminded her of the woman who had manipulated the man she loved and took it out on me since she could not take it out on my mother. She taught her two daughters how to help her. From a young age I was physically, mentally and emotionally abused দ্বারা them. In addition to doing all of the household chores, while my sisters did none, my character was called into প্রশ্ন constantly and I was in trouble for almost every bad thing that ever occurred while I was there. My sisters were responsible for the physical abuse to me because I wasn't allowed to physically defend myself since they were younger. They constantly reminded me that I didn't really live there and that I wasn't really their sister (despite having the same father). They were always constantly stealing all of my clothes and any gift I got for বড়দিন অথবা a B-Day as I wasn't allowed to take any gifts from my father's house to my mother's house. This meant a lot of gifts I received in that house were only mine when I opened it because whenever I left and came back, it was gone. Meanwhile my stepmother constantly reminded me of my mother's character and often asked me if I would grow up to make the same mistakes that my mother did. This was horrible growing up and I absolutely hated it. I used to dream constantly of the দিন that I would get old enough to get to leave that place. (My dad wasn't around enough to change anything that happened, even after voicing my complaints to him.) After working very hard at a young age to be independent a bit quicker than my peers, my life finally started to turn around. After gaining independence and proving to myself that I didn't have to be stuck where I came from, I met my very own prince charming. He is my current husband. Like Cinderella, he is the one thing in my life that makes all of the horrible abuse and past worth it all in the end. For those who think Cinderella's story isn't true, I mean this with the upmost positivity when I say that it is. When I was living in the house with the abuse, my character was much আরো reserved like Cinderella's was. I didn't speak up because speaking up would only mean "talking back" and getting আরো punishment. When I left and lived independently, I became আরো like জুঁই and began speaking up too much and too harshly. Now I am still trying to find a comfortable balance adjusting to life without the antagonizing atmosphere that I grew up with.
1. Rapunzel: While I knew what I was dealing with at my father's, I could never fully comprehend what was going on at my mother's. Although Mother Gothel wasn't actually Rapunzel's mother, she was much like my real mother. The song "Mother Knows Best" always makes me think of my mother. Not only does the concept and eerie feel of the song fit my mother but the actual lyrics. For example: "Plus, I believe Gettin' kinda chubby". My mother did the opposite of this and told me (just as I turned about 17) that I was too skinny and needed to gain weight (even though I really didn't). She had borrowed my jean shorts and worn them, and then when I পরবর্তি wore them was when she told me that my "shorts didn't even fit right anymore". My mother should not have been a mother, ever, to anyone. Just like Mother Gothel only had Rapunzel because of what she could get from her, so my mother only had me for what she could get from me. Unlike Rapunzel, I was not an only child but I was the eldest. Just as she was always trapped inside and not allowed to go out, so I was always trapped inside and not allowed to go out because I had to step in and fulfill the role of "mother" as a youth in my household. Like Mother Gothel who would go off to live her own life, my mother did the same. Also, when Mother Gothel pays the 2 criminals to trick Rapunzel is something I can relate to because my mother was the biggest manipulator I know and surrounded herself with criminal types constantly. Unlike Rapunzel however, I did not fall for the "bad boy". I had enough bad people in my life already and was far আরো open to the "prince charming" type. Also like Rapunzel, I was kind of naïve growing up because I hadn't had much experience except I was far আরো careful than she was. We both have had lots of spare time and found many different hobbies to fill that spare time with. (I প্রণয় writing, drawing, scrapbooking, etc.)
"There's no one else in the castle for me to interact with... wait, what?"
I was looking through my প্রবন্ধ and realised I didn't have an প্রবন্ধ in which I examined Ariel in depth. I decided to amend that দ্বারা লেখা about a subject it's fun to think about - Ariel's পরাকাষ্ঠা dress.
Most অনুরাগী can agree (I think) that the dress looks quite bad on Ariel. There are several reasons for this: the sleeves are ridiculously puffy and makes her arms look misshapen and the shaping of the স্কার্ট looks... Odd. I just think it's too puffy and big in general.
Another জনপ্রিয় reason for the dress looking odd is that a red hair/pink dress combo doesn't work:
However, I...
