Now, be honest with yourself: while Ariel was singing her heart out about wanting to “be where the people are”, you were totally coveting her undersea palace, weren’t you?
I know, it’s totally a case of the grass being greener — water bluer? — on the other side, but Sebastian was totally right about things being way more chill under the sea.

So guess what?! You can now live your dream of being a mermaid!
And get paid for it!
The Weeki Wachee Springs State Park in Florida has been running their mermaid show since 1947, and now they’re looking for a fresh school of mermaids.
But don’t think life will be all bubbles, because being a mermaid is hard work!
The audition starts with a 300-yard endurance swim with and against the current, then you need to tread water for fifteen minutes.
Get through that first round and you’ll be asked to perform ballet moves and other skills underwater, all with the elegance of a mermaid.
Mermaids perform four days a week and are paid $10 per hour for living their dream.
Auditions are January 13, 2018, so if you’ve got better lung capacity than I do, get swimming!
