What I Learned from Disney's The Suite Life of Zack & Cody
TV Guide

I don't know about you, but growing up I always watched The Suite Life of Zack & Cody on Disney Channel. The show takes place in the Tipton Hotel in Boston, Massachusetts where twin teenage boys wreak havoc and cause the manager problems. And by the way, they live in the hotel too. The show ran from 2005 until 2008. However, the legacy continued when they made a pretty good spin-off called, The Suite Life on Deck, which takes place on a cruise ship. Yes, children's shows are meant to be entertaining, but there are always lessons to be learned from the show.


1. How To Treat People

Dang it Cody, you're on point. Obviously, Mr. Moseby was looking for a woman who was important in the episode, but Cody reminds us to always cherish that special someone.


2. Stand Up For Your Honor

Spoiler alert: Esteban wasn't the thief in this episode, but he will always stand up to protect his name and what he has gone through to become a U.S. citizen.


3. Mr. Moseby Taught Us How To Drive

If you've seen the show you probably know this scene by heart. If not, I highly recommend you watch it on YouTube because it's hysterical! Just some context: London, the girl, is dumber than a sack of potatoes so that's what it makes it even funnier.


4. Stay Out Of Haunted Places

We all remember this episode. This was clearly the best episode, but I don't do anything haunted because of this.


5. Priorities

I totally feel Muriel on this one. If I have to move it better be worth it!!


6. Celebrate Your Success

London was always happy about her life. Granted she was born into wealth, lost it for an episode and got it back but still. She humbled herself (kinda) and celebrates when appropriate.


7. Breaking Stereotypes

Enough said. Also, London is supposed to be like Paris Hilton.


8. Everything Could Always Be Worse

This was a common phrase for Esteban to say on the show whenever something went wrong.... So, basically every episode. There's always hope for every situation even when it doesn't always look like it.

This show will always crack me up! I will forever cherish this show and will keep sending emails to Netflix as to why I need this show back!

College is super hard. Between working, studying, and having a social life, it feels like a struggle to just keep afloat.

I understand. When you feel like your drowning and there's no way to stay afloat I understand that it feels like everyone else is doing just fine. I understand all the frustration, long nights in the library, and that feeling that you want to just throw in the towel. I understand that sometimes it's too hard to get out of bed because your brain is already filled with too much information to remember. I understand because I am also feeling pretty burnt out.

Some of the best advice I've ever received was from my social studies teacher in sophomore year of high school. He stated, "If you don't know it at midnight, you're not going to know it for the 8 a.m. exam, so get some sleep."

It's such a simple piece of advice, but it holds so much accuracy and it's something that the majority of college students need to hear and listen to. "All-nighters" are a commonality on college campuses in order to cram in studying for an exam that is typically the next day.

Sometimes my brain just starts turning on an idea and it doesn't want to stop.

I don't know if it is related to my anxiety, perfectionism or depression. I don't know why it happens. It's frustrating, it's painful and it stops me from functioning.

You are not alone.

This is for the girls who have dealt with an emotionally, mentally, physically or verbally abusive father.

The ones who have grown up with a false lens of what love is and how relationships should be. The ones who have cried themselves to sleep wondering why he hurts you and your family so much. This is for all the girls who fall in love with broken boys that carry baggage bigger than their own, thinking it's their job to heal them because you watched your mother do the same.
