6 Must See Disney Channel Holiday Specials

wdpromedia

As a 90s kid, I spent the vast majority of my childhood listening to boy bands and watching Disney Channel shows. Most of the programs on Disney Channel featured a Christmas themed episode to spread holiday cheer through the hearts of the youngsters watching. Here are some of my faves growing up.

1. Lizzie Mcguire

The “Xtreme Xmas” episode of Lizzie Mcguire is a must see. From learning about the spirit of Christmas through allusions of Christmas classics to a performance from Steven Tyler, there’s something for everyone. Just add cookies.

2.That’s So Raven

The “Escape Claus” episode of That’s So Raven serves as a reminder of why not to peak at your Christmas presents early. It features a teacher undercover as Santa Claus that catches Raven, Eddie and Chelsea ditching school while at the mall. Cory also is seen in an elf suit! All because Raven had a vision...

3. The Suite Life of Zack & Cody

The “Christmas at the Tipton” episode of The Suite Life of Zack & Cody is one of my all-time favorites. It takes the typical trapped in a blizzard scene to another level by trapping Zack and Cody’s divorced parents with them, as well as Maddie in a three-armed sweater and a couple named Mary and Joseph, who happen to be delivering a baby girl in the elevator. Back when television didn't feel so staged. *Sigh.*

4. The Suite Life on Deck

No Christmas is complete without a parody of Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol. This episode of the Suite Life spin off featured London Tipton’s mirror serving as the ghosts from Christmas past, present, and future after the heiress refused to spare anything for the homeless. Watch this in your room all by yourself if you want. No judgement.

5. Hannah Montana

Hannah Montana featured two holiday episodes, the first being “Killing Me Softly With His Height”, in which Miley agreed to date a guy who served as one of Santa’s elves before realizing how shallow she was about their height difference. The second is my favorite of the two. Although it was released in August, “It’s the End of the Jake as We Know It” features Miley (as Hannah) getting revenge on her on-again, off-again boyfriend Jake Ryan during a holiday special they were shooting together after finding out he had cheated on her.

6. Good Luck Charlie

Good Luck Charlie features numerous holiday specials as well as a Christmas movie. From learning that your marriage is illegitimate to hiding your pregnancy from your children to bad experiences with your in-laws, Good Luck Charlie’s got it. But where to begin...

Although there are plenty of other episodes I forgot to mention, (Even Stevens, Kim Possible, Phil of the Future) these are my top picks from when I was younger. Now that does not mean that I don’t still watch them now...Feel free to binge watch your favorite holiday specials from when you were a kid and have a Merry Christmas!

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
