10 Best Things To Do At Walt Disney World If You Don't Like Rides

In This Article:

1. Shop

Main Street USA is one of the best places in WDW to shop, and if the street is crowded, it's easy to make your way from the Train Station to Cinderella's Castle by walking through the stores.

2. Look for hidden Mickeys. 

Apparently, there are thousands of Hidden Mickey's scattered all over WDW, and you can even buy a book that gets updated every year on where to find them.

3. Eat 

There are great restaurants all over WDW, but if you're looking for the best food in the four main parks, head to EPCOT. There are several festivals in EPCOT throughout the year that have particularly delicious food, like the Food & Wine Festival, as well as the Flower & Garden Festival.

4. Play Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom

The game begins in the fire station on Main Street and it can take you all over the Magic Kingdom. It usually takes about 4 to 6 hours to complete, so you can depend on this game to keep you busy.

5. Watch the Parades/Shows 

Magic Kingdom has the Festival of Fantasy as well as several Move It, Shake It parades throughout the day. Animal Kingdom has the Festival of the Lion King and the Finding Nemo musical, both of which take about 30-40 minutes. Each park also has their closing show at the end of the day, and Happily Ever After at Magic Kingdom and Fantasmic at Hollywood Studios are particularly breathtaking.

6. Recreational Activities

There is plenty to do on WDW property outside of the parks, including fishing expeditions, golfing, spa activities, and bonfires.

7. Go resort hopping 

All of the resorts at WDW are beautiful and unique, and they're all worth taking the time to see. The Grand Floridian, the Polynesian, and the Boardwalk Resort are my favorites!

8. People watch 

There are a variety of places on the property to sit and people watch. Maybe you'll see a proposal or somebody in a great costume while they Disney Bound!

9. Run a marathon

WDW offers several marathons throughout the year, and they're all themed for different Disney genres (the princesses, Star Wars, etc). You can wear your medal around the parks all day, and some stores and restaurants even offer discounts to marathon runners!

10. Go to meet And greets 

Meet And Greet lines can be even longer than some rides, so taking the time to dedicate to meeting all of your favorite characters is a good idea! Don't forget your autograph book!

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.

While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
