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?

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
