I've always been told that I was a child at heart, and quite honestly, I will probably always be a child at heart. Certain things in life bring me incredible amounts of joy that for other people my age, they'd say it's childish. One of those things has always been Disney. Whether it's the movies, the parks, the stories...the magic of it all has always enthralled me, and when I meet another fellow Disney lover, I find that I can't stop talking to them for hours. If I could have one wish in life, it would be to live in Orlando, so I could be close enough to visit Disney World whenever my heart desired.
It sounds crazy, I know. But sometimes when you have a passion for the magic of Disney as strong as mine, you can't stop thinking about it being in your life every day. If you're as Disney World obsessed as I am, there are just some things you cannot deny:
1. You're constantly planning trips to Disney World, even if it isn't feasible.
