Is Disney+ Really Worth it?

I'll tell you whether or not Disney's new streaming service is really worth it

Is Disney+ Really Worth it?

Spoiler alert: Yes, it's totally worth it!

First of all, I'd be lying if I said that I had not been excited about this service being released for MONTHS. The child inside of me was screaming at the idea of having all of your favorite Disney movies and shows on one streaming service. When the time finally came to purchase the service, I did it almost immediately, and I could not even begin to describe the excitement I felt watching the Disney+ app being downloaded onto my phone. Now after using Disney+ for about two weeks, I can happily tell all of you that for $6.99 a month, this streaming service is so worth it for many reasons.

For starters, They have just about every Disney show and movie that I (and many others) grew up with (with a few exceptions that are missing, but I'm sure they'll be on there eventually). They have pretty much everything from the 1900's classics to the mid 2000's shows that I'd watch everyday after school. I've been having such a blast so far reliving my childhood through these shows and movies, especially some of the movies that I completely forgot about. As a college student, laying in bed after classes and re-watching episodes of Hannah Montana or the Suite Life of Zack and Cody have made my days so much better.

What else makes Disney+ so great? They have so many movies and maybe even shows that you've probably never even seen or even heard of. On my first day of using Disney+, I was literally amazed at how many movies from the past that I had never even heard of. However, I felt that it was awesome that there were now so many new movies and shows that I could watch and experience for the first time. Many of these were considered "classics" back then, and I personally think that it's wonderful of Disney to include them for younger generations to watch as well. Not only has Disney+ given me familiar content, it's also given me new content to enjoy as well!

Speaking of new content, Disney+ has also jumped on the same bandwagon as Netflix, Hulu, Amazon, etc. of creating original content for their service. Want to see a live action version of Lady and the Tramp? See a spinoff of High School Musical, aka one of the most iconic DCOM in history? Watch a new Star Wars Series? See how Walt Disney brought Disneyland to life and more? Disney+ is also the place to find new, weekly original content, and they also have some exciting things coming up with their content. I think it's safe to say that many of us; including me, are pumped for the new Lizzie McQuire show coming soon to the service. Disney+ doesn't seem to disappoint when it comes to new content.

I could honestly keep going on and on about how great Disney+ is, but it would not be fair of me to spoil absolutely everything about the service for you. So, if you want a service with Disney, Pixar, Star Wars, Marvel, National Geographic, and even content from Fox (seriously, you can't go wrong with all 30 seasons of The Simpsons on one service), then I'd totally recommend trying out Disney+ (plus you get a free week trial-great bonus!).

To Disney+ itself, thank you for bringing back a huge part of my childhood into my adult 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.

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
