Are you tired of seeing all the articles and posts on your feed about Trump and what stupid thing he may or may not have done today? I know I need a break from all that. There is only so much a person can take of feeling angry all the time about what they are seeing and reading. What's one thing that always gets you in a good mood? For me, it's Disney. So why don't you take a break with these four Disney movies.

1. Moana.

Disney's newest Princess and the first Polynesian Princess at that. Moana is a tale about the daughter of a tribal chief, going against her father's wishes to go beyond their reef. I don't want to give too much of the story away because then you wouldn't have a need to watch it. It's a strong female lead, with no love interest at all during the movie. She is truly the first princess to show young girls that you don't need a man to be great. Plus the music in this one is pretty spot on and I'm obsessed with it.

2. Finding Dory.


Look at how cute she is. Baby Dory is one of the main reasons I personally saw the movie. She's just too cute. BUT one of the other huge draws was to finally learn more about Dory. We finally get to see her past. There are some awesome characters along the way that help Dory remember her past. If you get emotional, I recommend having tissues on hand for this one. While there will be laughs, there will also be tears.

3. Brave.

Another movie with awesome music and a strong female lead. This movie also brings in a different culture: The Scots. Before Brave, all the princess have pretty much followed the Grimm and HCA's tales. European princess (mostly Germany) with one Arabian Princess and a Chinese Princess that isn't really a princess. So it's nice to add another ginger princess to the mix. This movie, the princess doesn't depend on a prince to make her happy. Her tale is about her finding herself and trying to get her family to accept who she is. The movie also stresses trusting your family, even when you're unsure if they can be.

4. The Black Cauldron.


This is an old one. And one that most people may not realize is a Disney movie. While it has darker tones then the Disney movies we are used to seeing today, it's a good watch. This movie had a few Disney movie first. It was the first movie to get a PG rating instead of the normal G, it was also the first to use computer-generated imagery. The tale follows Taran, Hen Wen, Gurgi and Princess Eilonwy to get the black cauldron before the horn-king can make an army of the undead. I had my doubts until I saw this movie. It's definitely the must underrated Disney movie.

Hurry, go watch, and let me know what you think about The Black Caldron!

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.
