'Tis the season, everyone! It's that time of year again to curl up on the couch with a cup of hot cocoa and some holiday classics. From decorating the tree to eating Christmas cookies and watching the snow fall quietly outside, it really is the most wonderful time of the year. Whether you're young or old, there's something for everyone around the holidays. Here are 10 must-watch Christmas movies that everyone needs to see this holiday season.

1. "Elf"

Probably one of the most popular Christmas movies amongst teens. Will Ferrel makes a great elf.

2. "National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation"

The provocative humor makes this one of the funniest Christmas movies of all time. I would not recommend this movie to anyone under the age of 13.


3. "Home Alone"

One of the most classic Christmas movies of them all. Need I say more?

4. "The Polar Express"

If you're looking for a great Christmas movie for the entire family, this is at the top of the list.


5. "A Christmas Story"

Getting your tongue stuck to a telephone pole and getting shot with a BB gun... Merry Christmas!

6. "How The Grinch Stole Christmas"

The Grinch is every child's favorite nightmare. A green, hairy beast with Christmas spirit? How ironic. And don't forget, "Where are you Christmas? Why can't I find you?".

7. "The Santa Clause"

Tim Allen goes from your ordinary dad to a Christmas icon over night.


8. "The Nightmare Before Christmas"

There is nothing else that is quite like Tim Burton's movie. The best thing about this is that you can watch it not only during Christmas, but Halloween too!

9. "A Charlie Brown Christmas"

Any of the Charlie Brown movies are iconic, but the Christmas one is by far the best.

10. "A Christmas Carol"

Scrooge, the man who hates Christmas, is visited by the ghost of Christmas past, present and future... If you know anyone who hates Christmas, they are the Scrooge of the 21st century. Bah hum bug.


Merry Christmas and Happy Holiday's everyone!

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

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.
