10 Words, And Phrases, That Have A Different Meaning To Disney Cast Members
Swan Dolphin

Being a Disney Cast Member introduces you to many things that you otherwise would have never experienced.

Of these things, special Disney lingo is one of them.

Here are some words and phrases a Disney Cast Member hears differently than literally everyone else in this world:

1. Grape Soda

Wait, what? Believe it or not, this is actually a meaningful phrase to cast members. And it's a good thing. And it has nothing to do with soda; but has to do with cast members being recognized for doing a great job.

2. The Hub

Definitely not the hub you're thinking of. But, it has dual meaning to cast members. It is where we get our schedules and request days off; as well as a place on Main Street with the best view of the night time fireworks.

3. Being "Friends With" Someone

Trust me. This has a VERY different meaning at Disney parks.

4. Fire

What, the hot stuff you roast marshmallows over? Being let go of your job? Both of these types of "fire" exist in Disney, but we don't use this word. We have our own words for these things. In fact, I think I forgot this word existed the entire time I worked at Disney.

5. Customer

....you mean a guest?

6. Quit

Once again, we don't use this word. I truly think Disney cast members forget this is a word in the English language.

7. "Food And Wine"

All three words must be present in this exact order for this to mess with a cast member's head. But nonetheless, it has a whole new meaning to them.

8. Keys

Car? House? Hahaha. Oh man. No, just Four. Four Keys.

9. Point

This is the closest word to meaning the same to cast members as non cast members, but it just triggers us slightly more. We don't want points at Disney.. but when we need TO point, there is only one way to do so.

10. Disney

Everyone loves Disney. But, this word is much more special to cast members. Disney is our home, our entertainment, our place of work, and basically our favorite thing ever. It takes on new meaning to us, perhaps more than anything else on this list.

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.
