I am sure all 90's kids can agree with me when I say Disney Channel original movies these days are not even close to as amazing as they once were when we were younger. Sure, Disney brings back "Halloweentown" and all of its sequels every October and they show movies like "High School Musical" (and it's sequels) again every once in a blue moon, but it is about time that they brought back more of the originals. Kids these days have no idea what they are missing. So, Disney, I think it's time for a throwback showing off all the greats. If you need help deciding on which movies to use I have made a list of the best below.

1. "Pixel Perfect"

Using technology designed by his father, Roscoe creates a holographic lead singer that is "perfect" for his friend Samantha’s band. But then things start to go awry.

Natasha, Brittany's best friend convinces Brittany that it would be fun to mess with Jordan and change his image, so they start using his phone to their advantage.

6. "Eddie's Million Dollar Cook Off"

Eddie loves baseball. His dad is even the coach and his best friends are his teammates. But will he "strike out" with them if he trades his glove for an oven mitt?

7. "Gotta Kick It Up!"

With no one to coach the school dance team, new teacher Ms. Bartlett agrees to take over and help whip this group of misfits into winners. Si Se Puede!

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
