Walt Disney World Will Always Be My Favorite Vacation Despite My Age

Growing up, most of my family vacations were in sunny Florida and included at least a few days at the most magical place on Earth. Now that I'm grown, it's crazy to think I get even more excited planning trips to WDW. Here's why that's never going to change.

As a child, nothing compared to the excitement of waking up bright and early to head to the airport knowing that by the end of the day I would be surrounded by Disney magic. I would get starstruck waiting in line to meet my favorite princesses, spend hours in "The Sea" so I could participate in countless shows of "Turtle Talk With Crush," and sing the "Enchanted Tiki Room" theme song on repeat until it didn't sound like words anymore.

As I got older my interests changed, but my enthusiasm about going to Disney World did not. Every trip was a journey. Each vacation I looked forward to being tall enough for new rides and exploring new adventures. Disney is completely magical in the sense that it can cater to every child's age and even all adults of different ages.

Now each vacation is special in a different way. I love being able to recall past visits and reflect on the memories my family had made. My favorite flashback is always when I was little I would go with my dad to the food court of our Disney resort to get breakfast for the family; now when I go I love making that walk in the cool Florida morning air even if it's alone simply because it reminds me of spending that time with my father in our pajamas before a fun day.

While I may not be old enough to state that no matter your age Walt Disney World is the best vacation, I am confident it will always be. As a child, you see the magic, but as you get older it's even better- you see the magic..and the memories. Almost every moment I have had in Disney World my parents witnessed. They were behind me taking it all in because to them I was the magic. The best memories I have are the ones I don't even remember, but make my parents smile and laugh every time they share the stories.

Walt Disney World will always hold a special place in my heart and something I can't wait to share with my own family one day, but for now, I'll just look forward to planning my next trip!

11 Things Summer Nannies Can Relate To

There are plenty of obstacles that come when taking care of kids, but it's a very rewarding experience.

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

There are a lot of really easy, common names in the U.S. and while many of those simple names have different spellings, most of the time, pronunciation is not an issue that those people need to worry about. However, others are not as fortunate and often times give up on corrections after a while. We usually give an A+ for effort. So, as you could probably imagine, there are a few struggles with having a name that isn’t technically English. Here are just a few…

Daydreams, the savior of our life in class. Every type of student in the classroom does it at least once, but most cases it is an everyday event, especially in that boring class -- you know the one. But what are we thinking while we are daydreaming?

Puerto Ricans. They are very proud people and whether they were born on the island or born in the United States by Puerto Rican parent(s). It gets even better when they meet another fellow Puerto Rican or Latino in general. You’ll know quickly if they are Puerto Rican whether the flag is printed somewhere on their person or whether they tell you or whether the famous phrase “wepa!” is said.

If it hurts now, it'll hurt again. Not because you're gullible or naive, only because you fall fast, hard, and you do it every time.

We fall each and every time with the complete and utter confidence that someone will be there to catch us. Now that person we SWORE we were never going to fall for has our hearts, and every time we see them our palms start sweating. The butterflies in our stomach start to soar and our hearts are entirely too close to bursting out of our chests.
