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.

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

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.
