We’ve all been through it… you go to Disney for the first time and you are hooked. You then go to WDW for the next several times and you are a go go go fan. All rides, rope drop, kiss goodnight, no wasting time sitting, “check things off the list”, “got a lot done”, no time for Swiss family Robinson, scoff at DVC, etc.
But then after awhile and more trips you begin to ease on those things. You start to not care if you don’t get on mine train or Rise. You don’t care if you get there for rope drop or not. And slowly you begin to change your desires and what makes you happy. The little things start to impress you more, you notice smells more or art more and you appreciate the resorts more than you ever did. (For more than just collapsing at night after 18 hours of park time)
I see this in some of my friends… some are in the early stages and I’ve watched some of them go all the way to… graduation.
I’ve always tried to come up with a term that described this transformation and it’s kind of like a graduation. Where the magic for you isn’t rides and saving as much time as possible in lines. It’s staying at a resort all day instead of going to the parks. It’s sitting a bench on Main Street, it’s beginning to appreciate deluxe resorts, all those things.
So have you graduated yet?
(I realize this may just be a silly concept that may annoy people, so don’t take things too seriously here)
