If you have seen any of my previous posts, you will see that Disney is packed full of 'practical advice' for everyday life. Below are just a few of the countless life lessons brought to us by Disney's "Sleeping Beauty."

1. Don't invite everyone to the party.

Exclude the evil sorceress. No, this isn't a recipe for disaster at all.

2. When giving out magical gifts, beauty and a nice singing voice takes precedence over a good personality and smarts.

As long as she's pretty, she doesn't need to be intelligent or likable. Who cares?

3. Sewing is evil.

I knew it.

4. It's perfectly normal to have an imaginary boyfriend.

Don't let the haters get you down.

5. The guy you met "once upon a dream" exists and is exactly as you imagined him.

Sixteen years of hiding in a cabin are the perfect preparation for marriage. In fact, he'll be the first guy you meet.

6. Don't talk to strangers.

...but if you do, play hard to get.

7. Sometimes a little magic goes a long way.

This is even better than having woodland creatures do manual labor for you!

8. The most important question of them all: pink or blue?

Did you say pink? Them be fightin' words.

9. Always touch the glowing spinning wheel.

What could go wrong?

10. Sometimes all you need is a good nap.

Had a bad day? Sleep it off.

11. Hell hath no fury...be ready for her to turn into a real beast.

Especially if you're trying to ruin an elaborate sixteen-year revenge plot. She might get fiery.

12. As always, true love's kiss is the cure for whatever ails you!

I'm having a Deja Vu moment. Where have I seen this before?

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.

College Informations

Most of us have already started the spring semester, and for those of you who haven't started yet, you suck.

It seems like coming back from winter break wouldn't really be a break all things considered, since we all come back to school and pick up right where we left off. We know exactly what to expect, yet we're unprepared every single time.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

You know that all of these things apply to you. You'll just never tell.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

pale girl

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
