Believe It Or Not, Disney World Is Way More Fun As An Adult Than It Was As A Kid

It is the happiest place on Earth.

Disney World is the ultimate theme park. Everyone loves Disney and everyone wants to experience Disney World, at the very least, once in their life.

It's enjoyable for each person in the family. There's a reason why parents get just as excited about this family vacation as their kids. Disney is a classic brand that literally every person has grown up with and holds dearly to their hearts, and Disney World (or Land) is suitable for literally all ages.

Disney World may be every child's dream theme park to visit for vacation, but it's even better when you're older. Eighteen years or older is the prime time to go to Disney World, trust me.

1. You will actually remember this trip compared to when you were a small child visiting Disney World.

False.

There's a new appreciation for this notorious theme park once you visit when you are grown up. The memories are fresh and you will be able to truly look back on this experience.

2. You get to re-live your childhood.

Cue all the Disney movies and shows you grew up watching and playing with the toys. You still remember all the lyrics to the songs from Mulan and basically all the princess movies. And if you forgot a thing or two, you will be getting fond flashbacks at Disney World of your happiest memories.

3. You can truly enjoy all the rides (and wait times).

When visiting Disney World as an adult, you must strategically plan all your fast passes and rides you want to hit. You use the My Disney Experience app to look at all the wait times at each park so when your trip comes, you are fully prepared to skip the longest lines and wait for the rides you sincerely wish to ride. As a child, you weren't tall enough for all the rides and even found some of them "too scary" or "too big". Basically, you stuck to the kid's area and rode Dumbo repeatedly, and even for a ride you really wanted to ride, you weren't willing to wait in that line in the Florida heat doing absolutely nothing. It wasn't worth it to you.

4. All of the food…

Food is more cherished when you are above elementary grade age and that is a fact. You are actually willing to try all the Mickey Mouse shaped foods and desserts now. Epcot is heavenly for a foodie. Epcot wasn't your favorite park as a child, but now your new appreciation of food allows you to spend the whole day tasting foods from around the world. Who needs the other parks?

5. … and drinks!

Giphy

I know friends who have gone to Disney World for their 21st birthday instead of Vegas because of the multitudes of drinks you can try in this one location. Epcot doesn't only allow you to eat around the world, but drink around the world as well! Cheers!

6. Practical (and cute) souvenirs you’ll use and display in your home.

My absolute favorite mug for tea, coffee and even milk is a princess themed one I bought at Disney last summer.

7. Disney World isn’t only for family vacations, but a friend’s trip as well.

Everything is already planned, you spend quality bonding time waiting for rides, then you all get to share a Disney experience with tons of memories. My boyfriend and I clearly recall getting stuck on top of Splash Mountain twice in one ride and now laugh at it. The memories supplied Insta quality pics for the year! You now have the perfect "Happy Birthday" post picture queued up for each member in your friend group.

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.
