An Open Thank You Letter To Walt Disney
Jonathan Tony

Dear Mr. Disney,

I do not think you know how much your hard work truly paid off. So many things have been accomplished since you have been gone. You started an amazing company that truly is magical.

I want to start off by saying thank you. Thank you for never giving up your dream, no matter how many times you failed. Through all the debt and bankruptcy, your vision never once changed. You still believed that one day, you will make it. You made it possible to believe in anything, to keep being a dreamer. The dreams you dreamt came true. It may have taken a lot for those dreams to become a reality, but they did.

Thank you for making it possible to do the impossible. You never once gave up and I look up to you for that. You did the impossible. You had multiple people tell you that you would fail and that it was a silly dream that will never become a reality. They didn't believe in your dream but that didn't stop you from trying. It is hard to have people you love not believe in your dreams, but you stuck with it no matter what they said. You kept your head high wanting to prove yourself to them. You definitely showed all of those people.

Thank you for making an amazing company that I have learned to grow to love every day. I cannot begin to tell you how much different life would be if Walt Disney Company was never a thing. There wouldn't be much happiness or magic in the world. When I watch a Disney movie, it is full of inspiration and magic that makes me want to dream the wildest dream. Every time I walk into a Disney park, my breath is truly taken away. When people says it's the most magical place on earth, they are NOT lying. It's like no place I have ever been before. You forget about reality and you are the happiest you have ever been. I cannot even begin to tell you how much I love that place. You have made these parks feel like home to millions of people. You have made trillions happy. I cannot thank you enough for that. You have made my childhood never ending. You have made it possible to keep trying no matter how many times one may fail.

Thank you for making it possible to achieve our dreams.

The Unwritten Rules Of "Talking"

What is "talking?" How does one "talk?"

Now that it seems “talking” is the new way to date, and will stay that way until another idiotic term is used to describe the people who can’t settle down and just date someone, I feel as if it’s time to go over the unwritten rules of “talking.”

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.

I've lived a whole 21 years with an RBF (Resting Bitch Face), so naturally, I go through most of these struggles on a daily basis.

And before you ask, yes I'm fine. No, I'm not mad. This is just my face, so take it or leave it! To those of you who have been #blessed with an RBF, you'll probably relate to these more than you'd like to:

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?
