I am convinced that nineties kids had the best childhood when it comes to TV. But I am especially partial to those old Disney Channel Original movies that used to come on like every night at 8 o’clock. So, here’s a list of some of the best Disney channel original movies to make the nostalgia come rolling in.

1. Zenon: Girl of the 21st Century

ZETUS-LUPEEDUS!! Who didn’t love Zenon? It came out in 1999 and it’s one of the first Disney movies I remember watching. Kirsten Storms was Zenon in this futuristic Disney movie that attempted to predict what the world would look like in the 21st Century.

2. Halloweentown

Can we all take a moment to acknowledge how great Halloweentown was? Seriously. Come October, I still want to watch it.

3. The Thirteenth Year

This came out in 1 999 and I barely remember it. But it was about a boy mermaid. Pretty progressive right?

4. Motorcrossed

Motorcrossed came out in 2001 and it was one of my favorites. It was all about these fraternal twins in stereotypical boy/girl sports, motocross and volleyball. There’s a whole bunch of Disney drama and some classic twin switches.

5. Gotta Kick it Up!

This is probably my favorite because it was the only Disney movie to incorporate Latina culture in America. Plus it has America Ferrera in it…

6. Pixel Perfect

This one had a great soundtrack. Some guy creates a hologram singer to sing in his struggling band.

7. Twitches

Another Halloween classic. Twin witches!

8. High School Musical

Whether y’all admit it or not, most of us were hit by the High School Musical craze. Varying degrees of hysteria, some more than others, but we were all hit.


9. The Color of Friendship

This is probably one of the lesser-known Disney Channel movies, but one of my favorites and definitely still a good one to watch. It’s all about racial tolerance and inter-racial/inter-cultural friendships.

10.You Wish!

Ever wish your little brother would just disappear? Well, so did Alex Lansing in this Disney Channel original.

11. Right on Track

Again, probably not very well known, but its about a Houston man who inspirers his daughters, Erica and Courtney, to become champions in the male-dominated world of drag racing.

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
