Think back to 2001 when Gary Marshall directed a movie that would shape the next generation in a way that he probably never thought possible. Princess Diaries is one of my all time favorite movies. I mean, how can you pick your favorite scene between Mia's transformation, Lily's television show "Shut Up and Listen," or when Queen Clarisse eats a corn dog? Nevertheless, this movie is more than just a romantic comedy, it provides us with lessons (princess and non-princess) that we can truly learn from.

1. There is such a thing between a waltz and a tango.

2. Apparently there is a 'proper' way to wave goodbye.

3. Shut up doesn't always mean shut up.

Sometimes it could mean oh my, golly wolly, gee whiz; the list goes on.

4. We got some nice spa tips from Paolo.

5. Revenge can be cruel.

6. Manners matter.

And never cross your legs in public.

7. Ice cream can help you stand up to bullies.

Maybe ice cream can help Lana from stop being a jerk? Maybe?

8. It's good to laugh at yourself.

9. Find some friends who will have your back.

Also maybe take a small bite if you don't know what something is... Just a suggestion.

10. Makeovers can make you feel powerful.

11. Find a sassy and witty best friend to hang out with.

12. Always, always be yourself.

Charlotte seemed to get a kick out of it!

13. Your chauffeur can have some really good advice.

Thanks Joe...and Eleanor.

14. Be picky when it comes to who you want to date.

15. Miracles can happen.

It's true! You too could become a royal heir to a non-existent country.
