10 Best Christmas Movies

With Christmas just around the corner, the movies on TV are teeming with Santa, snow and candy canes. There are so many quality Christmas movies, that they need to be put into a list so everyone can get into some holly jolly holiday spirit while sipping hot chocolate and munching on sugar cookies.

1. "Miracle on 34th Street"

The old version or the new version, this movie is a feel-good classic that'll leave you with a smile on your face.


2. "Elf"

The best way to spread Christmas cheer is singing loud for all to hear with Buddy the Elf.


3. "Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas"

Once you get past the Grinch's somewhat alarming appearance and sarcasm, this movie is actually quite entertaining and funny.


4. "National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation"

There's no better way to appreciate your own family than spending a few hours with the crazy Griswolds!


5. "Snowglobe"

This is a lesser known Christmas movie, but it's an ABC Family original that's sure to warm your heart.


6. "Love Actually"

If you're looking for a heartwarming love story wrapped into a Christmas movie as well, then look no further.


7. "Frozen"

Ok, I'll be the first to admit that I was very skeptical when I saw this being played on 25 Days of Christmas. But I had a change of heart just like Elsa, and all the snow actually does get me excited for Christmas.



8. "Fred Claus"

A little twist on the classic Christmas movie, Fred Claus is equally hilarious as it is creative.

9. "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer"

Rudolph and Hermey actually make you want to get off the couch and visit the Island of Misfit Toys


10. "The Polar Express"

"Seeing is believing, but sometimes the most real things in the world are the things we can't see."

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
