The most magical place on Earth has that reputation for a reason! They emerge all guests into a whole new world with limitless magic. But like every magician, Disney doesn't reveal the secrets behind the magic. Here are 7 secrets of Disney revealed!

1. They pump scents into the parks!

It seems to make sense that Main Street always smells like sweets, but most just assume its all natural. Well, as part of that is right, Imagineers designed a product that pumps specific scents all throughout the parks! Next time you're walking down Main Street or through Frontier Land, just think that it's probably not the cookies or the rides filling your nostrils, but the smellitizer machines!

2. There are underground tunnels in Magic Kingdom.

When Walt Disney first created Disney, he got upset when he saw a cowboy walking through Tomorrowland. He didn't want characters in the lands they weren't meant for so they designed underground tunnels for the characters and employees to travel through without being seen.

3. There are no bathrooms in Liberty Square.

If you really have to pee, Liberty Square is not the place! Imagineers wanted to make the land as authentic as possible and there were no ceramic toilets or running water back in the day! You'll have to go to Fantasyland for that one!

4. The lion rock is air conditioned.

Ever wonder why every time you go on Kilimanjaro Safaris the lions are always on that one rock? Employees treat the animals very well and ensure they are comfortable while still being able to be on display. Thus, on hot days, the lions will stay on the air conditioned rock to cool down while everyone gets a fantastic view.

5. Dinosaur! used to be a different ride. 

Dinosaur! in Animal Kingdom actually used to be Countdown to Extinction, but the ride's soundtrack and motion was too scary for Disney, so they had to tone it down to what is now Dinosaur!

6. The flags on Main Street are fake.

As a nice gesture to our veterans, Disney has numerous American flags flying in the air. However, each one is missing stripes or stars. As a result, they are not real American flags, rather just for show.

7. Pirates of the Caribbean has real bones.

In Disneyland, Walt Disney used real bones to decorate the ride. It is rumored that the bones were taking out eventually and replaced with fake ones, but employees still insist that the bones are real.

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.

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.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
