There is always that one person who says, "I never grew up watching kiddy movies." Then there is me who knows I'll continuously be watching kiddy movies for the rest of my life. Yes, I am one of those crazies who is currently protesting the removal of The Nightmare Before Christmas on Netflix this beautiful month of October! I mean really? How could they remove this is the month of halloween people! Okay, anyway, the importance of kid movies, here you go!

1. Everyone can watch them and everyone can enjoy them.

Kid movies are (usually) purposefully made to not only entertain kids, but parents too. When you're a kid, you love these silly movies, but as you get older you can appreciate the witty humor in it all. It's pretty clever one can sneak in random sex jokes without kids noticing. That in itself should be appreciated.

2. It's good to get out of this reality by watching some good old happy endings.

I mean most kids movies have that scene that make you cry, but in the end everything turns out okay! Which then you can carry into your life, you got fired and dumped? Guess what? At the end of your story everything turns out okay! It's pretty motivational.

3. It makes you smile.

I guarantee you there is at least one kids movie that you can watch and it will make you smile whether its from the cuteness or from the witty yet adorable humor.

4. They make that cold soul of yours cry.

I don't care who you are or the experiences you have acquired over the years, but if you didn't cry when Mufasa died in the Lion King and Simba was trying to nudge him "awake"...maybe this article doesn't apply to you because you clearly don't have any sort of a heart or soul.

5. There is so many life lessons in these kids movies too.

Like the amount of love your siblings stuff in there, and the amount of find the right "love" of your life. That is some deep stuff that may fly sky high over kids heads, but man...that stuff gets me teary eyed every time.

Kids movies are important, and if this article doesn't convince you of it, just go watch some. Please. Go now! Open yourself to the possibilities of kiddy movies and to the humor, life lessons, and tears they bring! Be free now! Remember what it's like to be a little kid!

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.

Winter break is over, we're all back at our respective colleges, and the first week of classes is underway. This is a little bit how that week tends to go.

The professor starts to go over something more than the syllabus

You get homework assigned on the first day of class

There are multiple group projects on the syllabus

You learn attendance is mandatory and will be taken every class

Professor starts chatting about their personal life and what inspired them to teach this class

Participation is mandatory and you have to play "icebreaker games"

Everybody is going out because its 'syllabus week' but you're laying in bed watching Grey's Anatomy

Looking outside anytime past 8 PM every night of this week

Nobody actually has any idea what's happening this entire week

Syllabus week is over and you realize you actually have to try now...or not

Now it's time to get back into the REAL swing of things. Second semester is really here and we all have to deal with it.

Whether you specialized in ringing people up or preparing the food, if you worked at Panera Bread it holds a special place in your heart. Here are some signs that you worked at Panera in high school.

1. You own so many pairs of khaki pants you don’t even know what to do with them

Definitely the worst part about working at Panera was the uniform and having someone cute come in. Please don’t look at me in my hat.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.
