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.

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.
