1. You’ll make life-long friends and then have to leave


You even go into the program thinking--no scratch that--hoping you will make life-long friends because that is what everyone tells you right? Little did you know it would actually happen. Little did you know you would be completely in love with all five of your roommates and then the time comes and one by one they leave and go back home to Indiana and South Carolina and it absolutely, completely and utterly sucks.

2. You’ll have something so big to put on your resume, employers won’t want to talk about anything else once you go back home

You will feel awesome writing Disney World on your resume but when you get three interviews with top dog companies, all they will want to talk about is Disney. They will want to know every single detail and you won’t even talk about the job that you are actually there for. Then you will get PDD all over again (see number four on this list).

3. You’ll have to visit Disney every single day

You eat, sleep, and breathe Disney. You wake up, time to go to work, where at? Disney. Wake up the next day and you are off work, what do you do? Go to Disney. Disney is all you will know.

4. You will get PDD: Post Disney Depression

Yes, it is a real thing. Ask any former Disney College Program participant. You are there for four months to a year and then you have to go back home and sure you are fine at first but then you turn on your TV and what do you see? A Walt Disney World vacation commercial and instantly you are in your feelings and all you do for the rest of the week is sit in your bed and watch old Disney classics and listen to every Disney movie soundtrack and wonder why you are not on Space Mountain right now because the Electric Parade is going on and you know for a fact that there is not a long line, also you can’t even bring yourself to delete all of your Disney apps on your phone so you plan out your days and even get fast passes. Yes, it’s that bad.

5. It will be the best experience of your life!

Wait is that really so bad? You are one of the luckiest kids ever to be chosen for this program and you have the time of your life because you deserve it. If you can’t tell already, none of the reasons listed above are valid enough to actually not do the program, so if you are thinking about it, do it. I promise you that it will be one of the best decisions you have ever made and you won’t regret it. Good luck to those in submission and congrats to those of you who have done and completed your programs.

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
