Top 10 DCOM's on Disney+

-
We all love Disney movies, right? I know I do! I’m pretty sure that we’ve all lost track of how long we’ve been practicing social distancing, quarantine, shelter in place, or whatever we’re calling it now, and are looking for something different to watch. I’ve come up with a list of my top 10 Disney Channel Original Movies that are available on Disney Plus right now

. Now this isn’t necessarily my top 10, but my top 10 that would be great for the whole family. So, no you don’t have to worry – it’s not going to be all of the girly movies!



Lemonade Mouth

This movie takes students from all different backgrounds and social groups at the school and puts them together to overcome bullies, peer pressure, personal anxieties, and haters in general. These vastly different people really get to know each other and build each other up and help them be their best selves. It a
ll starts while they are in detention and they end up singing a song, which turns into them forming a band and entering a competition. They have a lot of people trying to tear them down, but they persist and share their love of lemonade.


Hatching Pete

This is a movie about two friends playing a pretty big trick on their whole school. Cleatis (Mitchel Musso; Hannah Montana) is an extroverted guy who was happy to take up the family tradition of being the school mascot. That is until he discovered that he was allergic to the costume. Not wanting to let his father down and quit, he convinces his shy best friend, Pete (Jason Dolley, Good Luck Charlie), to go out as the mascot for him. This ends up shaking the school up in a very unexpected way.







Minute Men

The first day of high school molded the rest of Virgil’s (Jason Dolley) high school experience for the worse. He ended up hanging on the flagpole by his underpants with Charlie (Luke Benward), the kid genius that he had stood up for. Charlie would turn up being his only friend. During their senior year, Charlie had figured out how to build a time machine. With some engineering help from their friend Zeke (Nicholas Braun), the three of them go back in time to stop embarrassing moments from happening to their peers. They became famous throughout the school, but no one knew who exactly they were. Everyone was speculating who the guys in the snow suits where that were helping people. All the time traveling they were doing had some unexpected side effects that got the attention of the FBI though. Are they going to be able to save the day?



Dadnapped 

What starts out as what was supposed to be a quiet weekend of quality time with her dad turns into a crazy adventure with crazed fans. Melissa’s (Emily Osment; Hannah Montana, Young and Hungry) dad is a best-selling author with a series of books about a teen spy. He made a detour to a convention to meet up with some of his fans before they spent their weekend together. No harm in that, right? They end up spending their weekend getting kidnapped by different groups of his crazed fans, which definitely wasn’t the kind of quality time Melissa had in mind.







Phineas and Ferb: Mission Marvel

I feel like this one doesn’t need much of an explanation. Phineas and Ferb team up with four of the Avengers (Iron Man, Spider-Man, Thor, and Hulk) to save the tri-state area and the world with some bumps along the way. Need I say more?






Pixel Perfect

To help his best friend, Samantha (Leah Pipes; The Originals), with her band, Roscoe (Raviv Ullman; Phil of the Future) creates the perfect girl that they were looking for lead singer. Using holographic technology his dad created, he created Loretta Modern. She takes their band to the next level, but she makes Samantha jealous. Can Sam do everything that Loretta does? Loretta created unrealistic expectations because she wasn’t real, she was a hologram programed to do whatever they wanted her to.









The Thirteenth Year

When swimming star Cody Griffin (Chez Starbuck) turned 13, he started to notice some strange things happening: his hand sticking to things, drinking excessive amounts of water, generate electricity, scales appearing on his skin when he gets wet. After he and his friend ran some “tests”, they came to the conclusion that he was a merman. He and his parents (Dave Coulier and Lisa Stahl) were having to figure out and hide his changes from everyone while finding his birth mother.




Smart House 

Ben Cooper (Ryan Merriman) who recently lost his mother had a hobby of signing up for contests. That hobby paid off when he won a computerized home – a Smart House. He moves in with his father and sister and things start out great. The house simplifies their lives in all kinds of ways – what it was created for. Things changed when Ben tried to get the house to become his surrogate mother, though that came with negative consequences. The house become self-aware and held the family captive. Now they had to work together on how to get out.



Zenon

Zenon (Kristen Storms; Kim Possible) is a girl living in the 21st Century. She and her parents live on a space station. When some suspicious things start happening, she starts playing detective. The snooping around gets her in trouble with the commander which gets her grounded, as in back to Earth grounded. That doesn’t stop her from trying to figure out what was going on though. As she figures out how people do things on Earth with her aunt, she figures out how to save the space station – if she can figure out how to get back there. If you like this movie, there are two more Zenon movies that are also amazing available to watch.




Holes

To me, this movie is a classic. That is why I’m putting it in here even though it isn’t actually a DCOM. It is definitely hands down one of the best Disney movies ever made. It takes us back and forth between the town many years before and when Stanley (Shia LaBeouf, Even Stevens) attended camp Green Lake. Stanley attended this “camp” as punishment for allegedly stealing an important pair of shoes that were to be auctioned off for charity. There was once a lake at this camp, which was a big part of the story line, but not when Stanley was there. All you could see for miles was dirt. There was no water to be seen for more miles than you could walk, it didn’t rain there. At least until the curse was finally broken. This movie talks about true love, a family curse, buried treasure, magic onions, and most importantly digging holes.

Dysautonomia Awareness Month

Hello all! This month is dysautonomia awareness month! Now this is probably where you're saying dys-auto-what? This can get really complicated so I'm going to try to put it as simply as possible.  Dysautonomia is an umbrella term that refers to conditions which cause dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system. I personally have postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome or POTS*. There are many other conditions that are under this umbrella, but I am going to keep the focus on my personal conditions.  *My POTS was caused by a genetic condition I have called ehlers-danlos syndrome, which affects your connective tissues.  So now you know what the word means, but now there is the question: What is the autonomic nervous system? The autonomic nervous system refers to all the body's involuntary functions, or the functions you don't consciously control. This means things like heart rate, blood pressure, digestion, vasoconstriction/dilation, pupillary response, sweating and more...

10 Common Makeup Mistakes

Using an HD setting powder / a setting powder with flashback to an event/occasion using flash photography You have to be careful with setting powders when you are going to be taking pictures. If you watch beauty YouTubers, you may remember James Charles’ “Flashback Mary” situation as he likes to call it. There are a lot of setting powders that will cause flashback when taking photos with flash, or in other words, creating a white cast in the picture.  Now here are a few ways that you can try to prevent this from happening. Stay away from HD setting powders when you know that you are going to be getting photos taken. Always look at reviews before buying the powder, learn from other's experiences! Give it a test run beforehand - especially if it is for your wedding or something important as that. In the test run, do the makeup how you plan to the day of the event, then take photos with both flash and non flash in all different types of lighting so you can get the best idea on how not...

https://www.warnerbros.com/movies/harry-potter-complete-8-film-collection/ The Light by Everlaih  Hermione G, Sirius B, Remus L. Complete. Rated: T “Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of places, if one remembers to turn on a light.” During the final battle, Hermione gets sent back in time to the marauders time at Hogwarts to save her life. Now that she is there, she makes a life with them. She Didn’t Need to Be Saved by NineAnd3Quarters  (Fred + Hermione) Complete. Rated: T. "She didn't need to be saved. She needed to be found and appreciated, for exactly who she was." J.I.W I watched Hermione as she sat in the corner pretending to read a book. I say that because she spent most of her time behind that particular book examining page 214. For the past month she had been 'reading' that book and hadn't turned the page once. Fred and Hermione Story The Way Home by Miss Grace O’Malley  (Hermione + Sirius), Remus L, Fabian P. Com...

Starving to Kill

Welcome back to my blog! Put on your seatbelts and hold onto your seats because this story is a wild ride. Today I am going to talk about a case that I have just recently learned about, but knew I had to share because it is so crazy. It is around the same time period as the Lizzie Borden case that I talked about in my last post. (If you haven't read it, check it out here !) It also has to do with murder, but it’s not as simple as you would think. In the Lizzie Borden case, whereas it remains unsolved, is fairly black and white. Andrew and Abby were stabbed to death with a hatchet. These murders were disguised as medicine. Linda Burfield Hazzard was born December 18, 1867 in Minnesota. By the time she was 18 she was already married and had two children. She did not stay with her family however. In 1898 she decided to leave her husband and children to go to Minneapolis and married Samuel Hazzard. They somehow ended up in Olalla, Washington.  She wanted to pursue a career in alternati...

My Mom LIVED at a Haunted School

  It is the beginning of Spooky season! I don’t know about you, but I am so ready for cooler weather, changing leaves, and watching Hocus Pocus and Halloweentown on repeat. To kick off Halloween season 2021 I’ve got a fun story for all of you! Whereas folklore and urban legends are always fun, my favorite stories are the ones where there is a personal connection. So you already know from reading the title, this is the story of my mom living at a haunted school when she was a kid. Now I do have to admit, the things that were attributed to the hauntings happened mostly in the years after she lived there, but not all. Even if she doesn’t have her own personal paranormal experiences there, I still think that this is a really interesting story.  Miller Hall In Albion, Idaho, there was a school that had a couple of different names and types of education over the years: Albion Normal School, or as it was named when my mother lived there, Magic Valley Christian College. You may recogn...
