Get ready to feel the nostalgia! It was recently announced that Disney Channel will be airing all 99 of their original movies in celebration for their 100th film Adventures In Babysitting. Disney Channel will be showing 51 of their most popular movies in marathon form starting all day and night on Friday May 27th until Monday May 30th. From then on, all throughout June the rest of the original movies will be shown at various times. In preparation for this epic marathon, I decided to take a look back at my top 10 favorite Disney Channel Original Movies.

10. Quints

Probably the most lesser-known movie on this list, but I remember loving it. It's all about a teenaged girl whose parents have quintuplets and her crazy antics trying to get their attention back on her.

Airing: Saturday May 28th at 9:50 a.m

9. The Thirteenth Year

Who didn't want to be a mermaid after watching this movie? The best thing about this movie is that most other Disney Channel movies don't have any elements of fantasy in them, so this is unlike any other!

Airing: Saturday May 28th at 4:20 a.m

8. Stuck In The Suburbs

SNL star Taran Killam was once the Disney Channel hunk who played a rockstar who actually gets stuck in the suburbs of his biggest fans. If only this would happen in real life.

Airing: Monday May 30th at 10:00 a.m

7. Jump In!

Who ever thought a movie about a double dutch team could be so awesome? I was obsessed with the music in this movie almost as much as I was with Corbin Bleu's arms.

Airing: Friday May 27th at 2:40 p.m

6. Pixel Perfect

This movie about a boy who creates his "perfect" holographic girlfriend has one of the best morals of all: the most "perfect" person in your life may already be right in front of you.

Airing: Sunday May 29th at 1:20 a.m

5. The Cheetah Girls

One of the best films about sisterhood mixed with song and dance, this classic never fails to put a smile on my face and even makes me want to start my own girl group!

Airing: Monday May 30th at 1:50 a.m

4. Smart House

Growing up, I always wanted a smart house of my own, even though it comes to life and barks orders like an evil step mom. Still a fun classic!

Airing: Monday May 30th at 2:55 p.m

3. Halloweentown series

Nothing screams Halloween more than teen witches, spells, goblins and a giant pumpkin. Halloweentown never fails to get me in the Halloween spirit-even in May!

Airing: Friday May 27th at 1:25 a.m (Halloweentown II: Kalabar’s Revenge), Saturday May 28th at 2:40 a.m (Halloweentown High) and Monday May 30th at 11:30 a.m (Halloweentown)

2. Eddie's Million Dollar Cookoff

One of the most underrated DCOM's is one of my favorite feminist movies of all time! Girls playing baseball! Boys cooking! And being proud of it! Disney Channel was breaking gender roles since 2003.

Airing: Sunday May 29th at 9:35 a.m

1. High School Musical series

Probably the greatest franchise to ever come from Disney Channel in the past, present and future, HSM always puts me in a good mood as I belt out the songs and watch baby Zac Efron sing to me.

Airing: Friday May 27th at 8:00 p.m (High School Musical 2) and Monday May 30th at 4:25 p.m (High School Musical)

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

SUNY Binghamton

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.
