Mallory May is a senior, but more importantly, a Disney World fanatic.

How many times have you been to Disney?
27 times (I’ve lived in Illinois my whole life). Every time we’ve gone to Disney, it’s been for  four or more days.

Why do you and your family go every year?
We love the Disney atmosphere. All the workers there are always so happy and pleasing. My family always has to be active and moving so Disney you’re always on the move. Like most kids, My sisters and I have grown up watching Disney movies and we just haven’t lost the love for it. It’s crazy the things they do in the park. In one night they will have all the Christmas decorations up in every single park. Their special effects are amazing, there is a job needed in every field in Disney World, which I think is pretty cool. I hope I can internship or work for Disney at some point.

Do you ever get bored of it?
I never get bored with it. There is always something new added to the park every time we go, which makes it interesting. They just added all these Star Wars shows, and a new avatar section is getting added this summer. My family has so many jokes and games we play while we’re there to entertain ourselves.

How has your experience changed over the years?
It used to be just my family who went to Disney, but since 7th grade, my family and Shelby Adamchik’s family have gone together. Or we would bring a friend or another family. This past January we took six of my little cousins which was a lot of fun because they had never gone so I got show them around. Every time we go is a different experience, whether it’s who we’re with or the new attractions added to the park.

Will you continue this tradition in the future?
I think we are going to keep this tradition, Disney is such a huge part of my family. Our basement is even Disney themed, so we will for sure keep going every year.
