Blake Lively’s childhood memories take her back to the happiest place on earth…Disneyland!

The Gossip Girl actress spent a big chunk of her youth at the resort. She tells Marie Claire magazine:

I remember I was about three years old, and I woke up – we were staying at Disneyland. I was in a little pink silk bed, and there were Mickey and Donald and Goofy looking down at me. It was the most exciting place in the world. I kind of feel like I grew up at Disneyland.

She continues:

My mom would take me there twice a week. I did well in school, so I guess my mom just wanted to have some extra time to bond with me. Sometimes, when I was older, she’d keep me out till one in the morning.

That is quite possibly the best award you can get as a kid! Haha. The 22-year-old also talks about her sideline career – she wants to be an interior designer!

One day I will have my own interior decorating firm. I love antiques… It’s the same thing in me that makes me love fashion – I’m fascinated by colours and textures and layering things.

Something tells me she’ll have a very successful business :)
