What are some of the best things about Disney movies? The incredible characters for sure, the heart-warming moments, the pivotal and inspirational messages, well of course. But I think one thing that truly makes some of the most beloved Disney movies of all time, are the original songs.

The songs we sang to day- in and day- out growing up. The ones we reference when college life becomes just a little too much and we instead imagine ourselves in a jungle singing about "no worries." These songs, even as we are all grown-up, relate to us. They ease our minds and eradicate our stresses.

Sound familiar? Yes, because spring break is supposed to do the very same thing. So how do you make the two go hand and hand? Try incorporating some of these classic songs into your road trip playlist for a childhood nostalgic and fun jam session.

1. "Hakuna Matata" -The Lion King

Try this song when everyone in the car starts to get a little grumpy or your driver is stressed because they may or may not have missed your bathroom exit. Maybe the last one for the next 30 minutes or so. All together now "it means no worries for the rest of your days/ It's our problem free/ philosophy/ Hakuna Matata."

2. "I'll Make A Man Out Of You" - Mulan

If you have managed to get through even a single study/homework session and not started by singing "let's get down to business to defeat the Huns", you are need of a refresher of the famous "Mulan' war-camp montage song.

3. "Part Of Your World" - The Little Mermaid

Everyone grew up singing "Up where they walk/ up where they run/ up where they stay all day in the sun/ wandering free/ wish I could be, part of your world." And, it seems pretty fitting for students who have been dreaming of being on the beach since coming back from Christmas break.

4. "Go The Distance" - Hercules

Yes we can go the distance. Endure the 12 plus hour drive to get away from textbooks, lecture halls, and if you're from the North or Midwest, snow. "I know every mile/ will be worth my while."

5. "Love Is An Open Door" - Frozen

If you have both girls and guys in the car you can have a pretty awesome group duet of Anna and Hans' iconic romance hit. Either way it's one of the best songs of "Frozen" and is a perfect way to wake everyone up when the drive begins to get a little tiresome.

6. "You're Welcome" - Moana

You really can't go wrong with any songs from the Moana soundtrack, even "Shiny". But Dwayne Johnson's "You're Welcome" is the one that played repeatedly in our heads and prevented us from responding to someone saying "thank you" in any other way than with "what can I say except you're welcome."

7. "In Summer" -Frozen

College has us all ready to be "relaxing in the summer sun / just lettin' off steam."

8. "Almost There" - The Princess And The Frog

Let the car rejoice and sing "Almost There" when you're road trip is reaching its end. "Trials and tribulations/ I've had my share/ there ain't nothing gonna stop me now / cause I'm almost there."

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. 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.

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.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
