9 Reasons Why Disney World Is The Best
Meaghan Darwish

If ever there was a place to travel back in time, the best would be Walt Disney World. Admittedly the Lake Buena Vista location has gone through a series of changes, but it is the feeling it inspires which allows you to return to days past. During my first trip to Walt Disney World, I was a mere ten weeks old, and a love for all things Mickey Mouse has been in my DNA ever since. For those who aren't entirely convinced, I will give you more than enough reasons as to why this magical place is among the best on earth.

1. Main Street USA.

Disney's picturesque street is the place of nostalgic dreams with pleasant scents, balloon bouquets, and the indescribable sounds of film influenced music.

2. Four Amazing Theme Parks.

Beginning with the original Magic Kingdom theme park, Walt Disney World has expanded since its 1971 opening. Epcot was the second park followed by Hollywood Studios (formerly known as M.G.M. Studios), and Animal Kingdom.

3. Their Attractions Promote Diversity.

In particular the ride, "It's a Small World," is an attraction that may not be deemed the most exciting but is an utter classic that promotes loving everyone regardless of origins.

4. Epcot gives you the chance to travel the world without a passport.

The world showcase is the perfect way to experience multiple cultures over the course of one or more days. The different countries offer flavors, experiences, and goods straight from their native countries, and many of the world showcase employees are from said countries making for a more authentic and enriching experience.

5. Thrill rides make for an exciting adrenaline rush.

From "Rock 'n' Rollercoaster" and "Expedition Everest" to "The Hollywood Tower of Terror," Walt Disney World caters to all ages, and every thrill level.

6. Legendary finger food and refreshing snacks.

Florida tends to get a little stifling, especially in the summer months, and Disney has plenty of delicious treats to keep you cool or satisfy your childhood cravings for junk food. Salty popcorn, mickey shaped ice cream treats, cinnamon churros, and the famous Dole Whip are just a few of the fantastic offerings available at conveniently placed stands.

7. You have the chance to get up close with nature at Animal Kingdom.

"Kilimanjaro Safaris" offers you the opportunity to see some of the most amazing animals in a less confining environment than a zoo. A great time to get the most out of the experience is to make your safari a morning one, trust me it makes all the difference.

8. FastPass+ is amazing.

This service allows guests to schedule a time where they can get into a shorter line, fastpass has been a savior in busy seasons. Now, with a scheduling system you know when you can use your passes instead of losing out on being able to check out a popular ride.

9. World class entertainment.

Whether it is fireworks, parades, or one of the many shows available for viewing, Walt Disney World never fails to make an impact, especially when it comes to your nostalgia.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
