As a Cast Member and guest that frequently goes to the parks, we all know how busy Disney is pretty much year round. Yes, they have sometimes where the parks aren't as busy but most of the times they are filled with vacationers, pass holders, and locals.

Most people who are interested in Disney know that they are big into celebrating the Holidays! As they should be though since many people come to Disney around the holidays. It's a special place to make memories with your family and still get to enjoy the holiday season.

Before working for this wonderful company, I had visited here a few times. I knew that it gets very busy and cast members work hard to make sure all of the guests are happy. I never tried to be a difficult guest but go with the flow and always be thankful for all of the services I had received while vacationing at Walt Disney World.

For myself and many others, we understand the hard work that cast members put into their job and how hard they work to make sure things run smoothly and everyone is happy. But for other guests, that's not always the case. People spend thousands of dollars to vacation at Disney so they want 110% service everywhere they go. They want a perfect trip, which I completely understand.

I understand that when you pay a lot of money to go somewhere you want everything to run and go smoothly and it to be the best trip of your life without any issues, but unfortunately, that cannot always be the case. Life isn't perfect and neither will your vacation be. Please do not take it out on cast members who are doing their best at this busy time of year.

Cast members continuously work long hours each and every day to make sure that all locations are fully stocked with enough people to make everything run smoothly. They try and make sure all guests are happy and enjoying their trip and loving each and every day. In order to do so, they need to receive respect back from the guests.

I can guarantee that they are doing their best to get everyone's food to them as quickly as possible or make sure the lines for the attractions go quickly so people aren't spending hours in line for one ride. As cast members, our job is to make magic and have you enjoy your trip. It's hard on us when people yell at us for something that is completely out of our control.

My advice to those traveling to Disney during the holidays is to take some time to talk to the cast members you interact with. Ask them how they are doing and thank them! Even something as small as telling them Happy Holidays or Merry Christmas will make their day great. Trust me! I know the parks get busy but be patient with us and you will have a magical trip!!

Blair Waldorf Quote
"DESTINY IS FOR LOSERS. IT'S JUST A STUPID EXCUSE TO WAIT FOR THINGS TO HAPPEN INSTEAD OF MAKING THEM HAPPEN." - BLAIR WALDORF.

The world stopped in 2012 when our beloved show "Gossip Girl" ended. For six straight years, we would all tune in every Monday at 9:00 p.m. to see Upper Eastside royalty in the form of a Burberry headband clad Blair Waldorf. Blair was the big sister that we all loved to hate. How could we ever forget the epic showdowns between her and her frenemy Serena Van Der Woodsen? Or the time she banished Georgina Sparks to a Christian summer camp? How about that time when she and her girls took down Bart Bass? Blair is life. She's taught us how to dress, how to be ambitious, and most importantly, how to throw the perfect shade.

11 Moments Every College Freshman Has Experienced

Because we made it, and because high school seniors deserve to know what they're getting themselves into

too tired to care

We've all been there. From move-in day to the first finals week in college, your first term is an adventure from start to finish. In honor of college decisions coming out recently, I want to recap some of the most common experiences college freshmen experience.

1. The awkward hellos on move-in day.

You're moving your stuff onto your floor, and you will encounter people you don't know yet in the hallway. They live on your floor, so you'll awkwardly smile and maybe introduce yourself. As you walk away, you will wonder if they will ever speak to you again, but don't worry, there's a good chance that you will make some great friends on your floor!

The college years are a time for personal growth and success. Everyone comes in with expectations about how their life is supposed to turn out and envision the future. We all freak out when things don't go exactly as planned or when our expectations are unmet. As time goes on, we realize that the uncertainty of college is what makes it great. Here are some helpful reminders about life in college.

1. "If I'm wearing black tomorrow, it's because I'm mourning my grade."

2. "Do you want to try ordering Chinese takeout to take back to the stacks?"

3. "This final paper has me questioning if this professor just sucks or is Satan himself."

4. "Is that person over there OK? They've been sleeping for a while."

5. "Why are you online shopping?"

"I want to motivate myself to study."

"Since when do you have money to buy something anyway?"

6. "I wonder how much I could make as a stripper."

7. "There are no stress relief dogs, and I feel conned. My stress today is worse than yesterday."

8. "Rate My Professor screwed me over."

9. "I wore these clothes yesterday, and maybe even the day before, but it's fine."

10. "I wonder if I could sneak a beer in here."

11. "I just really want chocolate chip cookies."

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.
