Disney is Life?

Is liking Disney too much of a Childish thing?

Disney is Life?
Shelby Cranford

So everyone knows that I have a thing for Disney stuff...Well, not just the movies or the stores or even the theme parks, but the company itself. Not many people know much about the company except for the fact that they make some pretty awesome movies like "Tangled" (Flynn Rider was probably the best character in that whole movie), "Frozen" (I like warm hugs like Olaf), and of course everyone's favorite, "The Little Mermaid" (because everyone just wishes they were a mermaid). So bearing this in mind: is liking or even loving Disney too much of a childish thing?

I, for one, love Disney; I actually look to the creator Walt Disney for inspiration at times when I need it. Not many people know this, but he failed three times before he came up with Mickey Mouse. That's right — the most famous mouse in animation came from three failures. Walt went bankrupt three separate times, was evicted from his apartment and lost all of his closest friends simply because no one wanted to buy his animations. Do you know how inspiring it is to look at that and say "Wow he created all of this out of nothing?" So yeah, I look up to him in times of need, especially when I think about writing a paper and coming up blank on a topic.

So is Disney a childish thing to like? Not really. If you think about it, there are always different stories behind all of the movies. The theme parks were made with a future in mind for people who want to cherish the magic. If you haven't gone to either park, I would definitely put it on a bucket list because I firmly believe everyone should meet Mickey Mouse at least once. In my case, I met both Mickey and Minnie and I recently got a tattoo of Minnie Mouse ears that looks fabulous and is included down below with the picture of Mickey and myself as well as my mom, me and Minnie. Disney is not just a passion, it's also something to keep me moving and talking about. I literally think I know more about Disney (random facts and useless knowledge) than anything else.


There's a museum dedicated to Disney in California, San Francisco to be precise. It has all of the original drawings and cameras that were used to make the first Disney films. I want to work there eventually as an exhibitionist. Disney fills my life so much and it is always a constant reminder that sometimes we just have to keep moving forward and follow our dreams. That's exactly what I do every day! I move forward and remember that a dream is a wish that your heart makes, so keep on believing and do what you love and you will continue to succeed. Disney is not childish and whoever tells you so is wrong!

Sorority Girls

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September.

I'll admit it, I have a condition called RBF or, if you will, Resting Bitch Face.

Anna Kendrick, poor Kristen Stewart, the Queen of England are all life-long sufferers of RBF. Victoria Beckham even made a career out of it! And though it's usually used to describe women, some men are also afflicted. Kanye West is the best example of this.
