Why Epcot Is The Best Spot

Everyone may think that Magic Kingdom is the place to be, but Epcot truly takes the cake.

Magic Kingdom is literally the worst.


It's great and all, but the amount of people that are constantly there is obscene. You can't breathe, you can't move, you can't think. I swear I lost myself a few times... Granted, the entire park is incredible! I'd want to go on every single ride and meet every single character, but in order to do that, I'd have to go every day for about three weeks straight. I suppose I have a bit of claustrophobia, but, I don't know, that park just isn't for me.

Then we have Epcot. Now, I think this is the most underrated park in Walt Disney World. Especially during the Flower and Garden festival, this park is astonishingly beautiful to walk around in. The manicured lawns, the big ball in the center, and all of the world showcases are absolutely incredible.

There is always something to do when you visit Epcot. Take Test Track - you design a crazy fast car by Chevrolet and then run through a simulation of a new car being tested before it's released to the consumer. Or go ride Mission: Space - a simulator that takes you and four others through a lift off into space on a mission to Mars and makes you feel G forces as you lift off and land. And who could forget the World Showcase, where you can visit multiple countries in one night and experience a bit of each of their cultures! During my trip, we visited Mexico, France, and Canada - places I probably won't have the luxury of going for quite some time. Safe to say there is no lack of things to do at Epcot, but the best part is the smaller amount of foot traffic.

Hollywood Studios really took me by surprise, though. We stepped foot onto the property and I couldn't imagine being anywhere else for the day. The scenery was spot-on, the costumes for each role fit perfectly, and the size of the park was so much easier to manage. I didn't feel overwhelmed by the amount of things I could do, and we leisurely made our way through the park, stopping to purchase the coolest sets of figurines from quite a few Disney movies. We made our way over to the Rockin' Rollercoaster but it was, unfortunately, down so we didn't manage to get on that one. We did, however, experience the Tower of Terror and I honestly think my heart dropped out of my chest. My boyfriend's hand is probably broken in multiple places after I squeezed it harder than I ever have before. All in all, Hollywood Studios gave us memories that we will never forget and pictures that will forever be kept.

I haven't made it to Animal Kingdom just yet, but, as for the other three, I think there's a clear winner.

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.
