10 Disney Princesses We Can Learn Valuable Lessons From

Thanks, Aurora, for teaching us that sleep really does rule. TBH, I could use a death-like sleep right about now too.

10 Disney Princesses We Can Learn Valuable Lessons From

If you didn't grow up watching Disney movies, I am truly so sorry for you. But if you did, you understand what it was like being young and truly obsessed with every Disney princess, never really having a favorite.

Each Disney princess comes with her own awesome traits that we all have grown to love. So, here are 10 things we can take away from our favorite Disney princesses.

1. Jasmine

Jasmine was confident, powerful, and showed that happiness matters over money. She ended up with Aladdin even after she found out he wasn't some rich prince because she truly loved him for him.

2. Belle

Belle taught us the importance of a strong father-daughter relationship. Sure, she fell in love with a beast and developed a bit of a case of Stockholm Syndrome, but she sacrificed everything for her father whom she wasn't going to let be captured by this beast.

3. Cinderella

Our girl Cinderella taught us the importance of punctuality. Sorry sister, but Fairy Godmother told you to be home by midnight and she meant it.

She also taught us a lesson in kindness, that even though people can be downright evil, just stay kind and karma will have your back.

4. Ana

Ana taught us the importance of sisterhood. No matter what, your sister comes first. Even if she freezes the entire town and accidentally almost freezes your heart and kills you.

Also, never agree to marry a man you don't know very well, even if you finish each other's sandwiches.

5. Mulan

Mulan: our favorite feminist princess. She taught us some serious lessons on feminism, showing that a woman can do a man's job just as well if given the opportunity.

6. Merida

Merida taught us we don't always have to be what people expect us to be and that the best path in life is the path we choose for ourselves.

7. Moana

Moana taught us to push boundaries that are laid out to hold us back. She taught us that as long as you know who you are, you'll be able to find your way.

8. Tiana

Tiana taught us that staying determined in our goals is the best way to reach them. She was determined to stay a waitress to eventually get the opportunity to open her own restaurant.

She also taught us we should never just kiss random guys who may look like princes because they're probably evil witch doctors.

9. Sleeping Beauty

Aurora taught us that sleep rules. TBH, I could use a death-like sleep right about now too.

10. Snow White

Snow White taught us not to take food from strangers. End of story on that one.

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.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

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.
