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!

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.

Singing is something I do all day, every day. It doesn't matter where I am or who's around. If I feel like singing, I'm going to. It's probably annoying sometimes, but I don't care -- I love to sing! If I'm not singing, I'm probably humming, sometimes without even realizing it. So as someone who loves to sing, these are some of the feelings and thoughts I have probably almost every day.
