The Top Five Rides At Walt Disney World
iMore.com

My family is one of those totally crazy families that live and breathe Disney. We recently took a trip to Disney, so my sisters and I created a list of our top five Disney World Rides!


5. Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster

I was always scared of up-side-down roller coasters, but Rockin’ Roller Coaster is so smooth and fast, I barely even noticed I was up-side-down! It’s a short ride, but is definitely worthy of being on this list because it’s fast and fun and the introduction by Aerosmith is hilarious!


4.The Haunted Mansion

What a classic. The Haunted Mansion was always my favorite ride as a kid because I hated scary movies, but Disney hit the nail on the head and perfectly combined spooky and funny with this ride. So, 7-year-old Catherine was spooked just enough to still be having fun!


3. Soarin’/Pirates of the Caribbean

I love, love, love Soarin’. You literally feel like you are hang-gliding. Disney even went to the extent of creating the smells of the landscapes you’re soaring over. If you’re in Epcot, you have to stop by Soarin’.

However, my older sister INSISTED the Pirates of the Caribbean ride to be a part of this list. It’s definitely a fun ride with an appropriate drop in the middle, so I guess I’ll let it slide into third place with Soarin’.


2. Jungle Cruise

If you’ve never experienced the Jungle Cruise, you HAVE to go the next time you’re in Magic Kingdom. The Jungle Cruise a hilarious boat ride through obvious animatronic animals. It’s also really shady and cool- perfect for a mid-afternoon ride.


1. Big Thunder Mountain Railroad

Thunder Mountain was my first ever roller coaster. I’m not a huge fan of roller coasters, but Thunder Mountain takes the cake out of all the coasters I’ve ever been on. This ride is adorable with its Western train theme and so much fun! It has the perfect amount of (not too big) drops and daring curves. Thunder Mountain definitely belongs at number one in my book.


Honorable Mention: Carousel of Progress

I used to hate this ride as a kid, but now I feel like I have to put Carousel of Progress somewhere on this list because I absolutely appreciate it for its efficiency. This ride is the rotating building in Tommorowland that takes the audience through the changes in progress over time. The rotating audience seats a ton of people! It’s also really cold inside and the seats are always comfy… definitely a plus worth mentioning!

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.
