In college, students challenge themselves in balancing coursework, sports, and a multitude of other extracurricular activities, especially at Furman, where there is so much for students to get involved in. From scheduling hundreds of shows, parades, and character greetings to creating and building new interactive experiences and resorts for guests, Disney balances every factor at play - and efficiently. It is interesting to see how many algorithms and techniques are used to ensure that all this gets done, and I am very excited to explore mathematics and science in Walt Disney World with such a great group.
Favorite Attractions:
Walt Disney World is one of my family's favorite vacation spots. I first went to Disney World at age two, and since then have revisited multiple times with my parents and two younger sisters. I love Disney World because it is so interactive - from journeying on an African Safari in Disney's Animal Kingdom to meeting storybook characters throughout each of the parks. My absolute favorite attractions are the "It's A Small World" ride, found in Magic Kingdom, and the Soarin' ride, where participants set out to hang glide over breathtaking California landscapes. The first time I tried this ride, I was worried because I was particularly afraid of heights, but now I could spend an entire day on Soarin'. This is conveniently located in my favorite of the four main theme parks, Epcot. In addition to adventuring to California on Soarin', my sisters and I always enjoy strolling through each of the pavilions in the World Showcase to get a glimpse of everyday life and culture in other countries.
Favorite Restaurants:
They say that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, especially when you are getting ready for a busy day in Disney World! My favorite restaurant to have breakfast is the Crystal Palace in Magic Kingdom, because if you look outside of the glass windows that enclose the dining room, you have a perfect view of Cinderella's Castle to start your day. Having grown up by the ocean, I also like to spend time at the Boardwalk with my family, especially when we want to go out for dinner.
