How To Avoid Terrible Disney Vacations
James and Carol Lee

Planning a trip to Disney World is no joke. It takes a lot of time, effort, and commitment to plan and schedule one of those trips. I have been to Disney more times than I would like to think and I'm sure if you go back and look at some of the previous articles on my page, you'll see that I'm kind of obsessed with it. I have compiled a list of a few tips and tricks from me to you on ways that you can avoid having a terrible Disney vacation.

The first would be to pack everything. Even if you don't think you need it. In my opinion, it's better to b safe than sorry. Packing everything includes sunscreen, bug spray, a rain jacket or poncho, baseball hats, water bottles, important papers, and enough shirts and shorts for all the days you are there, plus more. When I go to Disney I also love to bring my fun ears and pins to trade!

Next up on the list of Rachel is making reservations for Dining and Fastpass+. Disney has some really awesome restaurants on property and you can save yourself a lot of time and hassle by just making reservations through the Disney website before you leave home. The same goes for Fastpasses. Some rides in Disney (a cough, cough, Space Mountian) have reeeaaallly long wait times. If you can utilize the FastPass options, it will really save you some time to do other things around in the park!

The next thing I would really recommend is preparing for any type of weather that you may encounter. This means preparing for rain, sun, extreme temperature changes, and even hail. Florida weather is crazy, you never know what you're going to get!

Also, if you can, plan your Disney trips during times when crowds are thinner. Good times to go are October, January, February, and September! This will mean avoiding times when children are in school and major holidays.

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.
