13 Disney Songs That Perfectly Describe Going Back To School

"When life gets rough, I like to hold on to my dream of relaxing in the summer sun, just lettin' off steam." We agree, Olaf, but it's August and that means reeling in the summer fun and cashing it in for textbooks and long, studious days and nights. Have no fear, though, because Disney has tunes for every occasion, and these hand-picked bops are perfect for getting back in the groove of school.

1. "In Summer" (Frozen)

Let's be honest here and admit that Olaf was living the picture perfect summer. No work. All relaxation. In his head, at least.

2. "Bring Honor to Us All" (Mulan)

I can't be the only one that imagines their family singing this to them at the beginning of the year.

3. "Be Our Guest" (Beauty and the Beast)

You're finally ridding yourself of the end-of-summer blues, and you're greeted with this from your school!

4. "Hakuna Matata" (The Lion King)

Possibly the best part going back to school is being reunited with your friends, and this song captures that essence perfectly.

5. "Bare Necessities" (The Jungle Book)

There's nothing like starting the new school year with, well, the bare necessities. Or is that just me?

6. "Whistle While You Work" (Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs)

Syllabus week comes and goes and BAM! You find yourself swamped with work. But what better to pass the time than a little live entertainment?

7. "Poor Unfortunate Souls" (The Little Mermaid)

Every professor's favorite song as they assign their classes endless homework.

8. "Reflection" (Mulan)

Am I in the right major? Is there more I could be doing? We all turn inside and reflect at some point during the semester.

9. "In a World of My Own" (Alice in Wonderland)

If you're anything like me, you sometimes end up in your own world when you're stressed. And that's okay.

10. "For the First Time in Forever" (Frozen)

For the first time in forever, you're finally getting adjusted to a set schedule! (RIP summer, you will be missed.)

11. "Go The Distance" (Hercules)

"This is it!!! I'm going to rock this semester!" I tell myself as I rely on Hercules for motivation.

12. "Almost There" (Princess and the Frog)

The title says it all (as does the gif). Hard work pays off, and if there's anything students are good at, it's persevering (even if it means crashing once you're done).

13. "A Whole New World" (Aladdin)

Okay, so I know this is supposed to be a love song, but the title alone granted it its position on this list. It's literally a whole new world once you're accustomed to your new schedule, professors, and course load.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

It is no secret that many American traditions have changed over time. As we grow older we change in so many ways that it only makes sense that we also change the way we celebrate special occasions. Of course when it comes to the holidays there are some family traditions that many of us still excitedly look forward to, whether it is eating your favorite dish or seeing favorite cousin. However, we all know that the holidays have overall changed a little from what they used to be.
