Disney World's Animal Kingdom

My weekend vacation in one of Disney World's parks down in Orlando.

fter 16 weeks of graduate school, I needed a break! Thankfully, I only live 3 hours away from Orlando. I decided to go to one of Disney's theme parks that I've never been to before. I enjoyed going to Epcot and the Magic Kingdom last year for spring break and, from what my family told me and the pictures taken (who remembers anything from when they were 10?), I've been to Hollywood Studios. It was called MGM Studios back then so I guess I'm that old now.

Anyways, the pictures below are some of the highlights of my Animal Kingdom trip. I'll try to describe each one of the pictures taken, to the best of my abilities. It was really hot that day.

One of the first, or birds that I saw were these beautiful white Ibis.

From the movie "Up," Dug and Russell took pictures with the kids who waited patiently for them.

Dug and Russell were on their way to the break room after standing under the hot Florida sun. Luckily, I was able to get Dug to wave back at me before taking short break.

Next, I walked towards Dino Land. Because I am so hilarious, I wrote my own caption on this Snapchat picture.

After strolling through ancient times, I took a snapped this picturesque outline of a temple in front of "Mt. Everest." It was stunning. I even rode the Mt. Everest ride afterwards. It was scary for me because I'm not into roller coasters, whatsoever.

Then, after the ride and eating lunch, I waited for the main bird show. Prior to the show, one of the cast members (name of Disney employees) gave a preview of what to expect from the show. In the GIF above, he showed a beautiful owl and its features.

The GIF above showed one of the amazing aerials that the birds performed for us on the show. I wish I knew which bird this was but they mentioned too many bird for me to memorize.

The last part of my Animal Kingdom was a safari ride. The zebra was initially looking at the vehicle but when I snapped this picture, he turned around. At least he looks gorgeous.

Because of the hot weather, the giraffes hid under the trees. I'm kind of surprised they found a tree that high because most of the trees were shorter than them.

And that was my "magical" trip in the Animal Kingdom. I hope you enjoyed the pictures and the GIFs I created in this article. I can't wait to go back to Disney World. Hopefully, it will be in a different park.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

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.
