11 Reasons Why Princess Mia Was Your Role Model
Real Mom Reviews

I grew up watching "Princess Diaries" and "Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement," which I am so grateful for. Disney gave my generation a quirky relatable character to look up to. Princess Mia taught us we didn't have to be in the popular crowd and that you can overcome your fear of public speaking. This film includes many important quotes such as the famous line "Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgment that something is more important than fear. The brave may not live forever, but the cautious do not live at all." Not only did Princess Mia have the coolest grandma ever, but she taught us that inner beauty mattered.

1) She wasn't perfect

Learning to drive can be hard.

2) This moment

Such a sweet scene. I love how observant and caring Princess Mia is.

3) She was honest

Genuine compliments are the best kind.

4) She expressed her feelings

5) She embraced her awkwardness

6) She was realistic


We've all been there.

7) She knew to choose a guy that truly liked her for herself

She realized who's been there all along.

8) She acknowledged the world doesn't revolve around herself

We all tend to get caught up every now and then.

9) She owned up to her mistakes and apologized

People make mistakes and giving pizza never hurts.

10) She stood up for herself


She learned you can't let people walk over you.

11) She was willing to break the social norm

You go girl!

I am forever wishing Genovia was a real place so I could visit.

Dear Mom,

You took care of me and my brothers our entire lives and you still continue to! I will not be able to truly grasp all of the hard work that you put into this family until I create my own one day. But, I know that there are plenty of times I forgot to give you a simple thank you or an appreciative smile. I thank you for everything that you have done for me and will continue to do for me. Here are some examples of those times where you had my back and I forgot to pat your back for saving me:

College is hard. As people ages 18-22, we’re just trying to figure out what we’re doing with our lives, our careers, our eating habits, exercise routines, sleep patterns, and other necessities for adult life. We definitely don’t take proper care of ourselves; it’s basically impossible when we have essays, tests and readings due and somehow we’re supposed to eat right, exercise and sleep. We’re doomed to get sick. I have zero experience in science but when I get sick there are certain things I do to make myself better.

Now that it seems “talking” is the new way to date, and will stay that way until another idiotic term is used to describe the people who can’t settle down and just date someone, I feel as if it’s time to go over the unwritten rules of “talking.”

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.
