What are some of the best things about Disney movies? The incredible characters for sure, the heart-warming moments, the pivotal and inspirational messages, well of course. But I think one thing that truly makes some of the most beloved Disney movies of all time, are the original songs.

The songs we sang to day- in and day- out growing up. The ones we reference when college life becomes just a little too much and we instead imagine ourselves in a jungle singing about "no worries." These songs, even as we are all grown-up, relate to us. They ease our minds and eradicate our stresses.

Sound familiar? Yes, because spring break is supposed to do the very same thing. So how do you make the two go hand and hand? Try incorporating some of these classic songs into your road trip playlist for a childhood nostalgic and fun jam session.

1. "Hakuna Matata" -The Lion King

Try this song when everyone in the car starts to get a little grumpy or your driver is stressed because they may or may not have missed your bathroom exit. Maybe the last one for the next 30 minutes or so. All together now "it means no worries for the rest of your days/ It's our problem free/ philosophy/ Hakuna Matata."

2. "I'll Make A Man Out Of You" - Mulan

If you have managed to get through even a single study/homework session and not started by singing "let's get down to business to defeat the Huns", you are need of a refresher of the famous "Mulan' war-camp montage song.

3. "Part Of Your World" - The Little Mermaid

Everyone grew up singing "Up where they walk/ up where they run/ up where they stay all day in the sun/ wandering free/ wish I could be, part of your world." And, it seems pretty fitting for students who have been dreaming of being on the beach since coming back from Christmas break.

4. "Go The Distance" - Hercules

Yes we can go the distance. Endure the 12 plus hour drive to get away from textbooks, lecture halls, and if you're from the North or Midwest, snow. "I know every mile/ will be worth my while."

5. "Love Is An Open Door" - Frozen

If you have both girls and guys in the car you can have a pretty awesome group duet of Anna and Hans' iconic romance hit. Either way it's one of the best songs of "Frozen" and is a perfect way to wake everyone up when the drive begins to get a little tiresome.

6. "You're Welcome" - Moana

You really can't go wrong with any songs from the Moana soundtrack, even "Shiny". But Dwayne Johnson's "You're Welcome" is the one that played repeatedly in our heads and prevented us from responding to someone saying "thank you" in any other way than with "what can I say except you're welcome."

7. "In Summer" -Frozen

College has us all ready to be "relaxing in the summer sun / just lettin' off steam."

8. "Almost There" - The Princess And The Frog

Let the car rejoice and sing "Almost There" when you're road trip is reaching its end. "Trials and tribulations/ I've had my share/ there ain't nothing gonna stop me now / cause I'm almost there."

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.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.
