A big part of making your trip to Walt Disney World the best it can be is choosing to stay or visit some of the great resorts on property. Here are five resorts visitors to Disney World should look into checking out.

1. Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge

Featuring four large savannas complete with giraffes, zebras, gazelles and more, guests are treated to animal greetings from morning to night. The traditional African decorations are different than any other Disney resort and the rooms are incredibly homey. If you happen to visit the savannas at night, night-vision goggles are available to aid you in taking a peek at the animals.

2. Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa

If you're looking for a romantic getaway, exquisite restaurants and a classy ambiance, the Grand Floridian is just a monorail stop away. Featuring restaurants such as the Grand Floridian Cafe and if you're feeling like splurging, Victoria & Albert's. Arguably the most elegant resort on the Disney World property, visiting the Grand Floridian will also provide you with a beautiful view of Magic Kingdom's nighttime fireworks.

3. Disney's Polynesian Village Resort

Anywhere that serves dole whip deserves an A+ in my book, so the Polynesian is a must-visit. Being one of the stops on the resort monorail track, taking a visit to this classic resort can give visitors a relaxing break in between park hopping. Along with the Grand Floridian and Contemporary resorts, the Polynesian is a convenient distance from Magic Kingdom, perfect for family trips.

4. Disney's Boardwalk Inn

Connected to the Yacht and Beach Club resorts, the Boardwalk is pretty much a three-for-one. Including stops throughout the three hotels such as Jellyrolls, a piano bar, and the Beaches & Cream Soda Shop making a pit stop at this resort features activities for guests of all ages.

5. Disney's Wilderness Lodge

Personally, I believe this to be one of the most visually appealing hotels. The wooden accents throughout the entirety of the resort gives off a log-cabin feel without all of the bugs and dirt. The outside of the resort, which features a beautiful waterfall and greenery is reminiscent of Colorado. Overall, the resort adds a nature aspect to your visit without sticking you in a tent.

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.

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.
