Disney Challenge Day 50: A Movie That Inspires You

Day Fifty: A Movie That Inspires You

I would say that Mulan is a really inspiring movie. It teaches us that if we're brave enough, we can defy all odds and social expectations and prove everyone wrong. Also it teaches us that we can find more strength in ourselves that we never thought we could have. The fact that she was an outcast woman in China that took a HUGE risk by disguising herself as a man shows her bravery and inspires others to be courageous and go after what you believe in. Plus, who doesn't think "I'll Make a Man Out of You" is the perfect pump up and inspirational song?

That's it for Disney challenges!! I made it exactly before the day of check-in! Perfect timing!

Reflection Around the World

A few weeks ago, I received a delightful surprise tweet from Sidonie Smith telling me to watch her newest video. After watching the beautifully made video, I discovered she gave The Disney Den a shout out!! I was SO excited, and it made me so happy, I just HAVE to share the video with you guys!

This latest addition to her One Woman Disney Series is the song "Reflection" from the Disney movie, Mulan (my favorite princess!). However, she's not just singing this song, but she's singing this song in three different languages, and playing the viola! Sidonie also did her own makeup, which is absolutely stunning in this video.

I hope you enjoy, and be sure to watch the end! ;)

Also, for those of you who want to hear (or haven't already heard) the original Reflection from the movie, here it is!

Disney Challenge Day 2: Favorite Princess

Day #2: Favorite Princess

Mulan is without a doubt my favorite Disney princess. I admire her bravery and courage to protect her family and go against all odds to save her father and her country. I like how she didn't give up everything for a guy she had just met...much like some of the other Disney princesses. I also love how she's extremely tough and proves that women can be tough competitors too ;)
