10 Reasons Disney is Addicting

All you need is faith, trust, and pixie dust.

10 Reasons Disney is Addicting
katrina yarbrough

1. It's your childhood.

Being a woman, I am very sentimental. Disney is my childhood and I have no shame reliving this childhood once in a while or every other night. I am a lady and I will watch whatever I want to. We women also really like unrealistic love stories and talking animals.

2. The men.

Who doesn't want a prince? The Disney princes are the ultimate charmers and they're too cute to be fictional characters. Face it, Disney hooked us from the day we laid eyes on Prince Charming.

3. Cute talking animals...or aliens.

No matter how hard we pray or wish on stars, our animals just don't talk. Nor do they fly to Earth on a spaceship. This realization is one of the main reasons we turn to Disney.

4. Magic

Peter Pan taught us to have a little faith, trust, and pixie dust. We learned to believe in magic and in the fact that we can stay as young as we want to for as long as we want. As long as you just believe, you don't have to grow up.

5. The music.

Most Disney movies come packed full of singable music. If you're like me, you'll have them memorized by the third or fourth time you watch the movie and they'll most likely be on your iPod.

6. Relatable characters.

OK, OK, so not every single character is relatable. But I bet you can identify with at least one from every movie...even if it's an animal. As an avid reader and writer, characters are the best parts of any movie or book. It only takes me one time to say "that sounds just like me" to be hooked. Disney draws in its audience because they relate to everyone.

7. The importance of family

Whether there is a ton of family love in the movie or you're actually watching it with your family, this is one of Disney's main focuses. The ability to draw in a group of people that love each other is amazing. It doesn't matter how many shoes you throw at your siblings because the moment someone turns on Frozen, the love is evident.

8. #relationshipgoals

We know that men don't have grand balls to find us or face off again evil witches but Disney love is something that every little girl and even women look for. Don't even say you'll never have this type of love. Aim high and never lower your standards for any man that wouldn't travel through an eternal winter with you just to bring your sister home. Never mind that that will never be the case. He would do it, though, if it ever were.

9. Life advice

When life gets you down, Disney is always around to pick you back up. There is a lesson to be learned from every movie. Seriously, we're all a little mad because dreams are wishes our hearts make but as long as we just keep swimming, hakuna matata.

10. Epic theme park

If you're a Disney addict, you get the pleasure of being able to live out your dreams and addiction through rides and meet-and-greets. What other addictions allow you to have this kind of childish fun and get away with it? Go put on those Mickey Mouse ears and wear your Disney fanatic-pants proud.

Find excitement in your life and start exploring wherever you are right here, right now.

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2023, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.

The winters at Kent are brutal, and while the heated sidewalks and some great snow boots are always a help, there’s no chance you won’t bust it on the ice at least once in your four plus years at school.

Christmas is literally so close. We can almost taste it. But there is just one thing standing between you and the big day: FINALS. It's not the studying, lack of sleep, last minute cram sessions or crappy food intake that is the worst... but the fact that you cannot focus because, well, CHRISTMAS. How do professors expect you to focus when Christmas is soooo soon. For all my fellow Christmas lovers out there, I feel your pain.
