9 Reasons Why Disney World Is The Best
Meaghan Darwish

If ever there was a place to travel back in time, the best would be Walt Disney World. Admittedly the Lake Buena Vista location has gone through a series of changes, but it is the feeling it inspires which allows you to return to days past. During my first trip to Walt Disney World, I was a mere ten weeks old, and a love for all things Mickey Mouse has been in my DNA ever since. For those who aren't entirely convinced, I will give you more than enough reasons as to why this magical place is among the best on earth.

1. Main Street USA.

Disney's picturesque street is the place of nostalgic dreams with pleasant scents, balloon bouquets, and the indescribable sounds of film influenced music.

2. Four Amazing Theme Parks.

Beginning with the original Magic Kingdom theme park, Walt Disney World has expanded since its 1971 opening. Epcot was the second park followed by Hollywood Studios (formerly known as M.G.M. Studios), and Animal Kingdom.

3. Their Attractions Promote Diversity.

In particular the ride, "It's a Small World," is an attraction that may not be deemed the most exciting but is an utter classic that promotes loving everyone regardless of origins.

4. Epcot gives you the chance to travel the world without a passport.

The world showcase is the perfect way to experience multiple cultures over the course of one or more days. The different countries offer flavors, experiences, and goods straight from their native countries, and many of the world showcase employees are from said countries making for a more authentic and enriching experience.

5. Thrill rides make for an exciting adrenaline rush.

From "Rock 'n' Rollercoaster" and "Expedition Everest" to "The Hollywood Tower of Terror," Walt Disney World caters to all ages, and every thrill level.

6. Legendary finger food and refreshing snacks.

Florida tends to get a little stifling, especially in the summer months, and Disney has plenty of delicious treats to keep you cool or satisfy your childhood cravings for junk food. Salty popcorn, mickey shaped ice cream treats, cinnamon churros, and the famous Dole Whip are just a few of the fantastic offerings available at conveniently placed stands.

7. You have the chance to get up close with nature at Animal Kingdom.

"Kilimanjaro Safaris" offers you the opportunity to see some of the most amazing animals in a less confining environment than a zoo. A great time to get the most out of the experience is to make your safari a morning one, trust me it makes all the difference.

8. FastPass+ is amazing.

This service allows guests to schedule a time where they can get into a shorter line, fastpass has been a savior in busy seasons. Now, with a scheduling system you know when you can use your passes instead of losing out on being able to check out a popular ride.

9. World class entertainment.

Whether it is fireworks, parades, or one of the many shows available for viewing, Walt Disney World never fails to make an impact, especially when it comes to your nostalgia.

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.

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.

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.
