It can't all be magical

26 Reasons Disney World Is NOT The Happiest Place On Earth

"The happiest place on earth," also known as Walt Disney World. Over the years they have patented this illusion that they are the happiest place on earth, but I'm here to call their bluff. No place is the happiest place on earth, Disney included, and here is why.

1. Screaming children, they are everywhere.

2. It's hot and humid, all of the time.

3. Alligators, apparently they eat you.

4. Brazilian tour groups, trust me.

5. Food is overpriced, just because it is shaped like a mouse.

6. It is almost impossible to tackle everything Disney has to offer in just a week-long vacation.

7. Walt's head could possibly be frozen underground somewhere (and that is scary)

8. The icon is a mouse, which is just creepy.

9. College kids hold most of the jobs, including driving the boats and monorails.

10. There are lines. Everywhere, all the time.

11. Staying on property will break the bank, but staying off just isn't fun.

12. There are dead people ashes everywhere. No joke. This is a common thing.

13. There is said to be a ghost that haunts the pirates of the caribbean ride. He was a construction worker.

14. There isn't enough alcohol on premises to deal with all of the crying children.

15. Guests consume close to 2 million pounds of turkey legs each year. I found the obesity problem.

16. Animal Kingdom doesn't sell drinks with straws or lids. Blame the animals.

17. You will lose sunglasses during your trip. Since 1971, around 1.65 million pairs of sunglasses have made its way to the lost and found.

18. You can't buy gum in Disney World. Notice really clean sidewalks.

19. Woody and friends, from Toy Story, no longer fall down when you yell "Andy's coming" and that's not fun.

20. Tickets are insanely expensive. So you are now spending tons of money on food, resorts, and tickets into the parks.

21. There is constant construction. Disney is always building something.

22. It is always crowded. It doesn't matter if you go at Christmas time or in the middle of April, its crowded.

23. Wearing mouse ears around all the time, well it's kind of embarrassing.

24. Souvenirs are expensive. You basically have to take out a second mortgage to pay for it all.

25. It rains. every day. and then you are forced to wear hideous ponchos if you want to not lose out on all the money you spent to get in.

26. It's impossible to walk down mainstreet without accidentally photobombing someone's "cute" picture.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
