Hello, my Disney lovers! I love Disney more than I'll ever love my future children…just kidding…maybe… Anyway, Disney World will always reign superior to Disney Land, and if you're thinking about making a trip to the happiest place on earth, you definitely need to ride these attractions. To save you some time, these are the best six rides at Disney World, that fast passes are a must for, and riding them more than once is necessary!


6. DINOSAUR.

This ride may come off as a surprise to many people and some of you may never have heard of this fabulous ride. DINOSAUR is one of the best, most underrated rides at Disney World! Tucked away in Animal Kingdom's Dinoland, this ride is full of thrills, as you are taken back in time to save a dinosaur from going extinct. Not going to spoil it, but there may or may not be an unexpected drop that makes my day every time I ride it. I love how DINOSAUR is a creative concept by Disney, unlike some of Disney's newer ride systems. Seriously though, if you guys keep sleeping on this ride, I will be very upset. I want Disney to give DINOSAUR the praise it deserves.

5. Spaceship Earth.

Note Spaceship Earth, not Mission Space. This is completely biased, and I've had friends and relatives I've had to disown because they thought this ride was boring. Every Disney fanatic knows that Spaceship Earth is tucked inside the "giant golf ball" in Epcot. This ride travels you back in time and allows you take in some of the world's most historical communication moments. Spaceship Earth always makes me super emotional and I still have no idea why. Keep doing you Spaceship Earth.

4. Kilimanjaro Safaris.

Another severely underrated Disney attraction! Kilimanjaro Safaris, located inside of Animal Kingdom, allows you to see some of the world's most beautiful creatures up close and personal. The tour guides are also entertaining and funny, and the animals are extremely majestic as they're given space to roam in a pseudo-safari. The wait is always short, and it's great to ride in the morning as the animals are very active during this time.

3. Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover.

The Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover, also known simply as the PeopleMover, should be number one on this list, but I know there would be a huge outcry from roller coaster enthusiasts, so I had to lower it. Personally, coming from someone who is not the biggest fan of roller coasters, this is the best ride in Disney World. What does it do you ask? It moves you. I think I like the calmness of the ride, I'm so lame.

2. Haunted Mansion.

For all of my spooky lovers out there, this does not disappoint! The Haunted Mansion has some of the most in theme cast members, and you always notice something new about the ride every time you go on it or while you're waiting in line. The Haunted Mansion always gives me goosebumps, and I could ride it a hundred times and still be completely fascinated by everything.

1. Rock 'n' Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith.

Okay, adrenaline lovers, here you go. You win this time. The Rock 'n' Roller Coaster is like an extreme version of Space Mountain. In less than three seconds the coaster goes from 0 to 57 mph, and your heart feels like it's going to give out. The coaster is set in the dark, and you're listening to blood pumping music while you're twisted and turned and tossed upside down. For someone who hates roller coasters, this ride has my stamp of approval, but I also promise it's not lame.

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.

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

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.
