30 Things Disney World Fanatics Know All Too Well
Wesh.com

Between riding Pirates of the Caribbean 10 times and watching Mickeys Philharmagic over and over you began to see you've easily become a Disney fanatic. Disney World is said to be "the happiest place on earth", and has backed that up since 1971. The park itself fills you with an excitement that you cannot experience anywhere else in the world. As a huge fan, you can definitely relate to most if not all of these feelings and wonderful times.

1. Sitting and planning out the entire trip with your family.

It's a family project that needs everyone's input one way or another. Planning the perfect trip is some hard work.

2. You feel nothing but butterflies when you drive under the "Walt Disney World" sign.

Whether you're driving in a car or taking the bus from the airport it all leaves you breathless.

3. You memorize your hotel's layout within the first two days of the trip.

There is no blindfold test needed!

4. The older you get the more you begin to enjoy the quiet pool.

No one can resist the large public pools shaped to the hotels' theme, though!

5. You always wonder how housekeeping is going to fold the towels for your room.

Was it going to be a monkey, a swan, or a giraffe?

6. You can't wait to see what designs the Disney cups have on your visit!

Refills are on the house!

7. Nothing is more exciting than getting your first Mickey waffle at breakfast!

The ears are always the first to go!

8. You either wait forever for a park bus of you just make it to one as you're walking to the stop.

Either way, you're excited about the air conditioning.

9. Your feet are killing you by the end of the day.

There's nothing like a good eight-mile hike around EPCOT for the evening!

10. You try your best to get as many autographs as possible from the characters.

Meet and greets aren't just for children.

11. A Disney trip is nothing without a family photo in front of Cinderella's castle.

Located right on Main Street USA!

12. You can name every Disney park in Disney World!

Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Animal Kingdom, Disney Hollywood Studios, Blizzard Beach, Typhoon Lagoon, and Down Town Disney!

13. You know the agonizing pain of seeing wait times on your favorite rides.

Who wouldn't want to wait 350 minutes for their favorite Disney ride?

14. Character meals are the best meals!

I rather spend 20 minutes taking pictures with Mickey than eat my dinner.

15. The desert of choice after those meals is, of course, a Mickey Premium Bar.

And you're lying if you say you only get one!

16. You know all the words to the parades and fireworks displays.

That includes humming all the parts between the words as well!

17. At one point or another, you own either the Mickey gloves, the slippers, or a pair of ears.

And if you're like me you own all three.

18. You know all of the characters by name and have seen all the movies that follow them.

If you don't know the names of the Disney Characters why are you even there?

19. Your family has never made just one Disney World trip.

You have shirts, ornaments, and a thousand other things to prove it.

20. Doing the wave while waiting for Fantasmic to start.

The second showing always had better seats, though.

21. The difficulty of finding a spot to watch the parades with your entire family.

Being crowded and close together doesn't help either.

22. If parades aren't bad enough, there is always a difficult time finding a place to stand for the fireworks show.

The best spot though is on Main Street between Casey's Corner and the Ice Cream Parlor!

23. You memorize the monorail safety instructions in Spanish.

¡Por favor manténgase alejado de las puertas!

24. You don't need a map to a park because you already have know where everything is at.

Who has the time to sit down and look at a map anyway?

25. You feel anger in the pit of your stomach when someone doesn't know the difference between Disney WORLD and Disney LAND.

These are two different places, by the same person. They are definitely not the same!

26. The pain of having your whole family together and at your bus stop right after a parade or show.

We all know how long those buses can take sometimes.

27. You try to make the idea of staying an extra night reasonable and completely possible in your head.

In reality, we all wish we could live there.

28. You feel jealous while watching other families check in while you're checking out.

Take me with you!

29. The sadness you feel when you pass under the "Welcome" sign and you're going the opposite way.

Turn around I want to go back!

30. The dread of knowing you have to wait another year to go back.

Planning is half the fun, though!

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.
