With the one-hundredth Disney Channel Original Movie (DCOM) coming out soon, Disney Channel is reliving all of our childhoods with a non-stop marathon of the movies we love. I don't know about anybody else but I made sure I had plenty of room on my DVR that way the movies I grew up watching never leave my TV. This list may be more of my personal opinion, but here are 10 of the DCOMs that every kid needs to watch, and every "adult" still loves.

1. Motocrossed

This movie is the ultimate girl-power movie as the Andrea Carson aka Andy cuts her hair and rides with the guys pretending to be her older brother. Fooling everybody, including the cutest boy of the 2000s, she dominated a male sport and made us all want a dirt-bike for our birthday.

2. Double Teamed

Double the tall, double the stars, and double the awesome. We can't forget this basketball packed true story of Heather and Heidi Burge as they dominate high school basketball and make their way to the WNBA.

3. The Thirteenth Year

Don't lie this coming of age movie gave you hope that on your thirteenth birthday you would start developing gills, scales, and a fish tale and then discover that your mom was actually a mermaid. Or maybe that was just me...

4. Right on Track

The fast and furious story of the Ender sisters who take the drag racing world by storm. This again made us little girls want to strap on a helmet and get riding. I don't know about you but I always wanted Courtney Ender's pretty pink car.

5. Twitches

Tia and Tamera Mowry discover they are long lost twins who came from a magical other dimension called Coventree. Did I mention they have magical powers and have to defeat their new found uncle from destroying the planet? Still cool though. Don't forget that this DCOM also had a sequel, Twitches Too.

6. Halloweentown

Everybody's Halloween favorites that kept us entranced through five movies about ghouls and goblins that reminded us that being a human is not all that great. Every time I dressed as a witch I always modeled myself after Marney Cromwell. You also secretly hoped that your grandmothers bag contained as many goodies as Aggie's did.

7. Cadet Kelly

One of the many movies that made us fall in love with Hilary Duff. It also made us all lucky that we didn't get shipped off to a military academy, even though we were jealous of her awesome step routine with the streamers at the end of the movie. PSA: Pretty sure this is on Netflix!

8. Stuck in the Suburbs

Danielle Panabaker and Brenda Song are the best friends who change the image of an incredibly hot pop star. This movie made you jealous that a pop stars phone didn't get mixed up with yours. This struck the musical bone in all of us as we attempted to write our own lyrics as a chance to get us noticed by a famous rock star passing through our small towns

9. Smart House

Ahh the movie that made us dream of the technology of the future and pray that our parents would all the sudden be rich enough to afford a house that could make you any type of dessert you could ever want. Besides for the computer mother becoming creepily real at the end of the movie this DCOM is a must see, and must remember.

10. Johnny Tsunami

The tale of the young surfer who moves to Vermont and then rips at snowboarding. The beginning of this movie made all of us wish we lived in Hawaii. Also lets not forget the sequel that introduced to us the young and adorable Jake T. Austin who moved on to steal our hearts on Wizards of Waverly Place.

With 100 DCOMs these 10 only scratch the surface of all the great movies that we grew up watching and the movies we still have a deep love for. So while you are trying to decide what to do with your summer vacation, tune in to DIsney Channel and catch up on the movies you didn't realize you missed!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
