If you've been to Disney World even once in your life and have ridden rides, you have a favorite.

No questions asked.

Except for one: did yours make it on my list of favorites?

These are the top 10 rides at Walt Disney World that will never grow old, even if you do.

1. Mad Tea Party

Get ready to spin! This is one of my favorite rides at the Magic Kingdom because I love seeing how fast I can make my teacup turn. Pro tip: choose to ride in the purple teacup because it goes the fastest!

2. Pirates of the Caribbean

Be on the lookout for Jack Sparrow! This fun ride is great on days that it's raining and no matter how old the attraction is, you'll love it more each time you go to Magic Kingdom.

3. Expedition Everest

Although most people would probably rank this ride as their top favorite ride, it's too terrifying for me to rank that high. On your search for the yeti, be prepared for lots of twists, turns, and maybe even a broken track.

4. Space Mountain

You're clear for takeoff. Although this ride only goes 25 mph, be ready to be jolted around in the dark. The ups and downs will take you out of this world!

5. Big Thunder Mountain Railroad

This ride used to be my favorite, but it's not quite as smooth of a ride as some others. This wild west themed ride will make you feel like you've stepped back into the past. Hold on tight though because this is the wildest ride in the wilderness!

6. Seven Dwarfs Mine Train

This is my absolute favorite ride because it's so much fun, it takes me back to my childhood of watching Snow White, and it's the smoothest ride you'll ride at Disney World! The carts are made to sway with the turns so that passengers aren't jarred as they round a corner.

7. Soarin' Around the World

This was actually one of my fiancé's favorite rides! If you're not afraid of heights and want to travel the world someday, this ride is for you. Soarin' got a major upgrade a few years ago, so if you rode it before then, definitely check it out now!

8. Peter Pan's Flight

This is probably my favorite non-coaster ride. The graphics are wonderful, and it really does feel like you're flying!

9. Kilimanjaro Safaris

This is my favorite Animal Kingdom ride! I could sit on this jungle safari for hours and hours on end! I love seeing all of the different animals, and I love that the animals are completely unpredictable.

10. Jungle Cruise

The humor on this ride is phenomenal, and it changes with every ride you take! Your skipper will take you on a magical and very memorable tour of the jungle.

Be sure to check out one (or all!) of these rides on your next Disney vacation! Have a magical day °o°

Creating your schedule for the upcoming semester can be an exciting process. You have the control to decide if you want to have class two-days a week or five-days a week. You get to check things off of your requirement checklist. It's an opportunity for a fresh start with new classes (which you tell yourself you'll never skip.) This process, which always starts out so optimistic, can get frustrating really quickly. Here are 25 thoughts you have when registering for classes.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.

You can't say that no one told you life was gonna be this way.

friends

In the 12 years since it went off the air, "Friends" continues to be adored by millions. The show that gave generations unrealistic expectations about love (or should I say lobsters?) and New York City apartments had a charming cast of characters that everyone could relate to at some point or another. Here are 17 times Ross, Monica, Joey, Chandler, Phoebe and Rachel accurately described life.

11 Times Aubrey Plaza Described Sophomore Year

"I don't want to do things. I want to do not things."

Aubrey Plaza is one of my favorite humans in Hollywood. She's honest, blunt, unapologetic, and hilarious. I just started my sophomore year of college, and found that some of her best moments can accurately describe the start of the school year.

1. When your advisor tells you that you should declare a major soon.

2. Seeing the lost and confused freshmen and remembering that was you a short year ago, and now being grateful you know the ins and outs of the campus.

3. Going to the involvement fair to sign up for more clubs knowing that you are already too involved.

4. When you actually do the reading required for the first class.

5. Seeing your friends for the first time since last semester.

6. When you're already drowning in homework during syllabus week.

7. Realizing you don't have the same excitement for classes as you did as a freshman.

8. Going home and seeing people from high school gets weirder the older you get.
