Are you tired of seeing all the articles and posts on your feed about Trump and what stupid thing he may or may not have done today? I know I need a break from all that. There is only so much a person can take of feeling angry all the time about what they are seeing and reading. What's one thing that always gets you in a good mood? For me, it's Disney. So why don't you take a break with these four Disney movies.

1. Moana.

Disney's newest Princess and the first Polynesian Princess at that. Moana is a tale about the daughter of a tribal chief, going against her father's wishes to go beyond their reef. I don't want to give too much of the story away because then you wouldn't have a need to watch it. It's a strong female lead, with no love interest at all during the movie. She is truly the first princess to show young girls that you don't need a man to be great. Plus the music in this one is pretty spot on and I'm obsessed with it.

2. Finding Dory.


Look at how cute she is. Baby Dory is one of the main reasons I personally saw the movie. She's just too cute. BUT one of the other huge draws was to finally learn more about Dory. We finally get to see her past. There are some awesome characters along the way that help Dory remember her past. If you get emotional, I recommend having tissues on hand for this one. While there will be laughs, there will also be tears.

3. Brave.

Another movie with awesome music and a strong female lead. This movie also brings in a different culture: The Scots. Before Brave, all the princess have pretty much followed the Grimm and HCA's tales. European princess (mostly Germany) with one Arabian Princess and a Chinese Princess that isn't really a princess. So it's nice to add another ginger princess to the mix. This movie, the princess doesn't depend on a prince to make her happy. Her tale is about her finding herself and trying to get her family to accept who she is. The movie also stresses trusting your family, even when you're unsure if they can be.

4. The Black Cauldron.


This is an old one. And one that most people may not realize is a Disney movie. While it has darker tones then the Disney movies we are used to seeing today, it's a good watch. This movie had a few Disney movie first. It was the first movie to get a PG rating instead of the normal G, it was also the first to use computer-generated imagery. The tale follows Taran, Hen Wen, Gurgi and Princess Eilonwy to get the black cauldron before the horn-king can make an army of the undead. I had my doubts until I saw this movie. It's definitely the must underrated Disney movie.

Hurry, go watch, and let me know what you think about The Black Caldron!

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
