16 Signs You're Shamelessly Addicted to Disney World

Helen Dore

Living in Florida has some perks. One — it's never too cold, and then there's Disney World. Having been an annual pass holder for three years now, I can say that, yes, I am addicted to Disney World. And, screw it, I'm proud.. And I'm not the only one. Disney addiction is an all-too-real thing, and it's wonderful.

Here are 16 ways you know you're a (proud) Disney fanatic.

1. You can navigate around all four parks without a map.

Consistently going to Disney for three years can do that to you.

2. You know every single Disney song.

Being addicted to Disney means you got to know the songs, especially the ones on the rides.

3. You never get tired of seeing the fireworks and the parade.

But this also means that this is the best time for rides like the Seven Dwarf Mine Train, Space Mountain, Soarin', Test Track, Rock 'n' Rollercoaster, Toy Story Midway Mania, and Expedition Everest.

4. You know the shortest line for each ride.

In the morning, I usually have fast passes for the big rides with the longest times, and after lunch, I usually go on the rides that have about a 45-minute wait time or less.

5. You have too much fun planning for your Disney trip. Even if it is for other people.

6. Meeting Mickey Mouse never gets old.

Actually, meeting any characters never gets old.

7. You have at least one autograph book filled.

8. You know the best way to avoid crowds.

9. You know where the nicest bathrooms are.

10. You get upset when someone confused Disney World and Disneyland.

There's a difference guys.

11. You reserve certain rides for naps and rest time.

It's been a long, hot day. Therefore, you go to PeopleMover, Carousel of Progress, Haunted Mansion, Spaceship Earth, Gran Fiesta Tour Starring The Three Caballeros, and Beauty and the Beast Live on Stage.

12. You have a favorite park snack.

Can we just talk about the turkey legs?! Love them.

13. You love seeing people experience the magic of Disney World for the first time.

14. You are okay with being at the parks while it's raining because you know it will be less crowded.

15. You have celebrated at least one holiday at Disney World.

We have gone to Disney during Easter several times, Labor Day, Halloween, Christmas several times.

16. When you are not at Disney World, you are thinking about the next time you will be.

No matter how many times you visit, Walt Disney World will always be "The Most Magical Place On Earth" to you.

11 Things Summer Nannies Can Relate To

There are plenty of obstacles that come when taking care of kids, but it's a very rewarding experience.

University of Wisconsin Branch Schools

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

11 Struggles Of Having An “Ethnic” Name

You'll never find any souvenirs with your name on it

There are a lot of really easy, common names in the U.S. and while many of those simple names have different spellings, most of the time, pronunciation is not an issue that those people need to worry about. However, others are not as fortunate and often times give up on corrections after a while. We usually give an A+ for effort. So, as you could probably imagine, there are a few struggles with having a name that isn’t technically English. Here are just a few…

11 Things You Should Never Say To A Puerto Rican

Don't Be That Person

Bowling Green State University

Jessica Pinero

Puerto Ricans. They are very proud people and whether they were born on the island or born in the United States by Puerto Rican parent(s). It gets even better when they meet another fellow Puerto Rican or Latino in general. You’ll know quickly if they are Puerto Rican whether the flag is printed somewhere on their person or whether they tell you or whether the famous phrase “wepa!” is said.

To The Girl Who Falls Too Fast, Never Be Ashamed Of How Hard You Love

Love hard, every day, and never be ashamed.

3068

If it hurts now, it'll hurt again. Not because you're gullible or naive, only because you fall fast, hard, and you do it every time.

We fall each and every time with the complete and utter confidence that someone will be there to catch us. Now that person we SWORE we were never going to fall for has our hearts, and every time we see them our palms start sweating. The butterflies in our stomach start to soar and our hearts are entirely too close to bursting out of our chests.
