The holidays are the best of times, and the worst of times. Every channel is constantly playing the greatest holiday movies, so you never have a shortage. Here are 10 of my favorite holiday movies:

1. "Love Actually"

This is my go-to, all-time favorite holiday flick. It never fails to make me laugh and cry, and laugh some more.

2. "Elf"

A classic. It's a tradition in my household, and I watch this movie like 15 times in 20 days.

3. "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" (Jim Carrey version)

Jim Carrey is hilarious in this movie and has been one of my favorites since I was a kid.

4. "The Holiday"

My mom and I love this one; it's so cute and such a sweet story. Also, Cameron Diaz is all of us when we are stressed during the holidays.

5. "A Christmas Story"

This is also a movie tradition in my family. One year, my sisters even re-created the scene where Ralphie and Randy stuffed their faces in food, snorted like pigs, and screamed "Momma's little piggies."

6. "Christmas Vacation"

The Griswold's are all of us. Classic.

7. "Home Alone" (1 and 2)

Are you even human if you don't watch these on repeat throughout the holidays??

8. "The Polar Express"

This is just some of the best advice. Such a beautiful movie.

9. "Miracle on 34th Street"

This is one of the first Christmas movies I remember watching. It's always been a favorite for my family.

10. "It's a Wonderful Life"

I watch this every year with my mom - another timeless movie that makes me feel like it's officially the holidays.

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods. Which is none other than beer; wonderful cold beer. With summer playing peek-a-boo around the corner while we finish up this semester, it's time to discuss the only important part of summer. And if you haven't already guessed, it's beer. There are few things I take more seriously than my beer, in order are: sports... and beer. Here are my favorite summer brews:

Everything Bruce says in his classic rock songs.

Anyone who was born and raised in New Jersey (or anywhere really) knows of Bruce Springsteen, whether or not they like him is a whole other situation. I hope that his hundreds of classic rock songs and famous high energy performances, even in his sixties he can put on better concerts than people half his age, are at least recognizable to people of all ages. Love him or hate him (I identify with the former) you have to admit that some of his songs and interviews have inspirational quotes and lyrics.

Marconi Beach

Three years ago, I chose to attend college in Philadelphia, approximately 360 miles away from my small town in New Hampshire. I have learned many valuable lessons away from home, and have thoroughly enjoyed my time spent in Pennsylvania. One thing that my experience has taught me, however, is that it is absolutely impossible to beat a New England summer.
