9 Songs From Disney Channel Original Movies To Put On Your Running Playlist
Disney

I love Disney Channel original movies (yes, even as an almost-20-year-old) and I love running, so I thought it would be a fun idea to combine my two loves into one 30-minute running playlist. Some of these songs are from the classics, others from the newer, probably lesser-known movies. I know everyone gets pumped up for a run by varying types of music, so while not all of these are guaranteed to get your feet moving, still give them a try. Who knows? They might surprise you and you'll be running with the spirit of Disney every day!

1. Play My Music (Camp Rock)

Okay, I know I said they might not all get your feet moving, but I guarantee that this one will. It is one of my favorite songs to run to! From the first line, “Turn on that radio, as loud as it can go,” the energy level is through the roof, the beat thumping behind the words, pushing your feet along with it. It's the kind of song that motivates you when you are fatiguing and pushes you to work even harder.

2. We’re All in This Together (HSM)

When listening to this song, you can imagine running with tons of dedicated, energetic people (and maybe Zac Efron?); you all "make each other strong." You may feel compelled to dance with your arms as you run—if you're brave enough, do it, fellow gym-goers will be jealous of your workout zeal.

3. She’s So Gone (Lemonade Mouth)

I thought "Lemonade Mouth" was the bee's knees when it came out in 2011. (Holy cow, that makes me feel old!) This upbeat tune of defiance and maturing starts slow, but once the chorus comes, the song seems to catch on fire, as will your legs as you run and run and run.

4. It’s On (Camp Rock 2)

Drums! A little guitar please...1, 2, 3,4! Show the world what you got as you "rock it, rock it, rock it" and run 'till you drop!

5. Cloud 9 (Cloud 9)

"This must be how it feels to fly" is an accurate statement. Running is exhilarating and may just put you on "Cloud 9." The song even tells you to go hard, "push it to the limit" and to "never give up." Encouraging for when you are ready to quit? Yes indeed!

6. Cruisin’ for a Bruisin’ (Teen Beach Movie)

I love this song for running. It literally starts with "you better run, run run, " I mean, come on, that's perfect! You can pretend that instead of "riding fast like a bullet," you are running fast like one.

7. Something About the Sunshine (Starstruck)

This song has a very beachy, pop vibe that energizes me for a run. I imagine I'm running along the ocean or by the palm trees, the sun shining down. It's probably not your typical workout song, but it's worth a shot, right?

8. One and the Same (Princess Protection Program)

"Hey, hey, hey!" Does anyone else remember this Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato movie from 2009? (Ah! That makes me feel even older!) I was obsessed with it, and this peppy song. The drums and guitar make it impossible to keep still. Even if you weren't working out, you'd feel the urge to move your feet.

9. Heart and Soul (Camp Rock 2)

Yes, this is the third Camp Rock song in this list. What can I say? Camp Rock is the best at all ages and at all times. Do you have the heart and soul of the Jonas Brothers to get you through your run?

Hopefully some of these will suit your fancy and will add some Disney magic to your workouts!

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.

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.
