The Mouse Behind the Madness
If you asked me who my idol was when I was 6 years old, the answer would have enthusiastically been “Mickey Mouse!!”. Back then, I easily obsessed over Mickey Mouse and the golden age of cartoons like The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, The Lion King, Pocahontas, and so on. It was definitely an amazing time to be a Disney fan and as an adult, I never thought I might become an even bigger fan of everything Disney. Disney has really grown the past couple of years, especially with the acquisition of Star Wars, and it’s no surprise that they’ve even collaborated with big brands like Uniqlo for a line of cool Disney gear. I absolutely love this shirt I’m wearing (bonus points because there’s an angry Mickey) and thought it was especially fitting today since it’s Mickey’s 88th birthday! Happy Birthday, Mickey, and thanks for bringing so much joy into my life!
