10 Of Disney's Most Bad-Ass Women

1. Mulan

Don't ever try and fight me on this. Mulan is the most bad-ass Disney Princess of all time, and no one will ever top her. She singlehandedly defeated the Huns and saved all of China while pretending to be a man because it wasn't okay for women to fight. What did you do when you were a teenager?

2. Merida

The most iconic "independent woman who didn't need no man." There were other princesses in Disney history who didn't find a prince, but Merida went out of her way to prove she did not need one. She beat three men in a physical test to win her own hand in marriage--she really did not want to get tied down.

3. Elsa

Her story was focused on protecting others, which meant isolating herself from her sister Anna, to protect her. Who has time to find a man when you have magical powers and an ice castle to build?

4. Megara

One of the most underrated characters in Disney history. Meg has a rough outer shell and always had her guard up, but on the inside she had the biggest heart for the ones she cared for and risked her life to save Hercules.

5. Mrs. Incredible

It's no secret that all moms are superheroes, but this kick-ass mom was a literal superhero. While trying to save her family, she also saved the world when she had some downtime.

6. Tiana

Tiana knew from the beginning that the only way to get what you want is by working hard, and that's all she ever did. She made history as the first black Disney princess and she stole our hearts when her story came to the big screen. She inspires girls everywhere that you can achieve your dream through hard work and determination.

7. Anna

Anna's goal was always to find true love after being sheltered in all her life, but she gave that all up and risked her life to save her older sister Elsa.

8. Mama Odie

Mama Odie was the crazy grandma we all wished we had. Not only was she always the life of the party but she had words of wisdom to help people in their times of trouble.

9. Esmerelda

She was beautiful, courageous, and one of the most caring characters Disney has ever created. She did everything she could to protect her people and put her life at stake more than once for the ones she loved.

10. Jane

One of the most brilliant and adventurous Disney characters of all time, she befriended Tarzan when everyone else was afraid of him.

11. Princess Leia (BONUS!)

How could I not include her? Disney now owns "Star Wars" which makes her an official Disney Princess. She defended the galaxy, kicked some major Stormtrooper ass, and still looked hot while doing it. Every little girl who saw "Star Wars" grew up wanting to be her.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!

There is nothing quite like family.

Family is kinda like that one ex that you always find yourself running back to (except without all the regret and the angsty breakup texts that come along with it).

No matter how long your class is, there's always time for the mind to wander. Much like taking a shower or trying to fall asleep, sitting in a classroom can be a time when you get some of your best ideas. But, more than likely, you're probably just trying to mentally cope with listening to a boring lecturer drone on and on. Perhaps some of the following Aristotle-esque thoughts have popped into your head during class.

Bob's Burgers is arguably one of the best and most well-written shows on tv today. That, and it's just plain hilarious. From Louise's crazy antics to Tina's deadpan self-confidence, whether they are planning ways to take over school or craft better burgers, the Belchers know how to have fun. They may not be anywhere close to organized or put together, but they do offer up some wise words once and awhile.
