Second Semester As Told By Old Disney

Our childhood predicted our future.

Welcome back everyone!

Yes, it's true, second semester is officially in full swing. Classes have started. Work has really started. Tests are rapidly approaching and studying is getting more and more necessary. This time of the semester is always full of anxiety and stress, but then again, what part of the semester is not?

However, you have to admit that it is great to be back. Back at school with your partners in crime and best friends. There are so many mixed feelings and opinions that can all be very accurately described by what I like to call the "old Disney." "Lizzie McGuire," "That's So Raven," and "Kim Possible" are just a few of my childhood shows and they all know exactly how I feel...

1. When your professor assigns extra work (or any work)

All you want to do is sleep and watch Netflix but this professor is giving you all of these things that you have to do. There is just so much work written on the few pages that make up your syllabus. As you look over everything you have to do everyday for the rest of the semester, you begin to wonder if you professor realizes that you have other classes too!

2. When you're falling asleep in class

As you sit in class telling yourself to keep your eyes open because in order to do all of that work that your teacher assigned you must pay attention! As you start to doze off again all you can think about is your bed and getting back for a nap.

3. When you actually pass a test

And then that glorious day comes where all those late nights and hard work pays off. YOU PASS YOUR TEST! And you are lying if you say that your first instinct is not to break out in song like Lizzie.

4. When you and your roommate get back to your everyday routines

It is just so great to be back with your best friend do all the crazy weird and yet, to you guys, normal things. I mean who else could you wear lab goggles and make rabbit faces with?

5. When you don't want to get up for class

I mean of course you love your friends and your roommate but let's be honest, your bed is your best friend. You bed is always there to wrap you in a nice warm hug when you are stressed about all of your work!

6. When it's Friday night and you know you don't have class tomorrow

It's Friday night and you don't have to do anything but sing and dance your little hearts out! Embrace your inner Boy in Motion and enjoy your night off!

7. But then you start to think about your future

All through high school you wish for the day that you will be able to run your own life. But now it's actually here. You have to make real life decisions and it is just too hard! But embrace your inner Troy Bolton, get your head in the game, because I know you can work this out!

8. And then you finally find your true calling

With all of those incredible "Boyz in Motion" dance moves and Lizzie McGuire singing voice, an international pop sensation is obviously the best path!

9. But then you realize that that is not really an option

An international pop sensation is not the most realistic job, so embrace the bed head. But don't worry because you do have a future, out there, somewhere.

10. And then, you remember that you STILL have to do all of that work.

Take a page out of Alex Russo's book and just pretend that it isn't there. But then again, it has to get done since international pop sensation is no longer in the running.

11. When you finally get all that work done

At least for the moment, all of your work is done. No more reading, or papers to write or math problems to try to comprehend. You are just so happy that you finally get to relax! You're so happy that you feel like you could smile even bigger than Demi (if that 's possible).

12. AND YOU ARE STILL JUST SO EXCITED TO BE BACK

So kick back, get a facial, and relax. Because the stress is just starting! Get ready, second semester is in full swing!

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

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

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.
