5 Things You May Not Know About Disney World
Parks and Resorts

!When roaming the world famous Disney World parks this week, I couldn't help but wonder what secrets are kept within the walls of the parks. Secret passages? Rooms only accessible to certain people? I doubt that I am the only one who wonders what Mickey Mouse has to hide- so with a bit of research, here are 5 secrets of Disney World.

1. Liberty Square is truly authentic

The replica Liberty Bell and Liberty Tree are notable within the Magic Kingdom, as Liberty Square is one of the first lands that you may encounter. But staying true to the time period, there are really no bathrooms in Liberty Square. What about the bathrooms in the restaurants within Liberty Square? They are so far back, that they are technically in different lands.

2. Pay close attention when going to "Be Our Guest"

Every little girl's dream is to have dinner at the most popular restaurant in Magic Kingdom. But, if you look closely at the artwork, you'll see that they were created with the original animation cells. Also, the small children that line the ceiling are made after the children of Imagineers. Baby photos of the Imagineers are also there as well

3. Main Street Flags

If you walk down Main Street in Magic Kingdom you'll see the array of our nation's flags. But because they are left there permanently, each is missing either a start or a stripe (or some small detail) because of federal regulation, that says that the flags must be raised and lowered throughout the day.

4. The creation of the tower of terror

Supposedly the Imagineers who made the tower liked to play pranks. They would take a jar of pickled sausage and hide it on one another. And one day, the day that all of the props were being glued down, the jar was left behind. You can still see the jar behind the photo pickup area.

5. Buying Mickey Mouse

From Mickey t-shirts to mugs to keychains to stuffed animals, you can buy just about anything Mickey. But there's one thing you will never know- the true color of his shorts! The exact color is proprietary and will never be known!

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
