A Ranking of All Four Disney World Parks

So, this week, I got to spend two days at Disney World. The first day was at Hollywood Studios, while the second day was at Epcot. As someone who has been to Disney World a bunch of times, I think I'm qualified to rank the parks within Walt Disney World (Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Hollywood Studios, and Animal Kingdom). So, here goes.

1. Magic Kingdom

Magic Kingdom is the best park, hands down. Not only is it classic (it was the first park), it's fun! There's something for everyone -- good treats, a nice mix of fast and not so fast rides, and plenty of great food. Plus, with all the different areas within the park, you'll never get bored, and there's always something new to explore. This trip was the first time I went to Disney World and did not go to Magic Kingdom.

2. Epcot


Epcot is great. It's the second park to open in Disney World and was the last park that Walt Disney helped envision. There's not a ton of rides; however you can go around the World Showcase, and there's a ton of food. You can hop from France to the US to Germany (which I did). Random Tip: the caramel corn at Germany is really good. There are festivals all the time–Food and Wine, Flower and Garden, Festival of the Arts–none of which I've been to, but I've heard on good authority from park employees (AKA my sister and her friends) that it's amazing. Also: Spaceship Earth (the giant golfball) is a great ride.


3. Hollywood Studios


Hollywood Studios is entertaining, but if you've been there once, you probably do not need to go back until there's something new (AKA until Star Wars Land and Toy Story Land -- 2018 and 2019, respectively). There are a few enjoyable rides, and you can meet Pixar characters, so that's fun. While it's fun to see a bit of movie magic, the park itself is a bit too eclectic for me.

4. Animal Kingdom

Animal Kingdom is okay. The Jungle Cruise is cool. I've been there maybe once, and I do not remember much (which should tell you how excited I was). While the park is unique, frankly, I'd rather pay a lot less and go to the zoo. It's more of a go-there-just-to-go-there situation in my opinion.

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

You're away from home and your mom who can take care of you and all you really want to do is just be in your own bed. You feel like you will have never-ending classwork to catch up on if you miss class, so you end up going sick and then it just takes longer to get better. Being sick in college is really tough and definitely not a fun experience. Here are the 15 stages that everyone ends up going through when they are sick at college.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

For better or for worse

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
