We're always excited to see the next horror or action or romance movie, but what about the ones we haven't seen yet? What about movies that are amazing but are just a little older? Why don't more people watch movies from the 1950's and on? Well we should change that. We should embrace the movies that helped inspire some of the new movies that come out today. Here are 10 movies from generations past that you need to watch.


1. "Seven Brides for Seven Brothers"

If you love musicals this is your movie. It has everything from kidnapping to falling in love to dance-offs. This movie will have you laughing, and maybe even crying.

2. "SHAG"

This is one of my favorite movies. It's about four girls that take a trip to Myrtle Beach to meet boys. Things don't go quite as expected though.

3. "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun"

While I think most of us know about this movie it's still one that we should all watch again..... and again ....and again.

4. "Overboard"

This movie is so funny. It's mainly about a rich snob that loses her memory and falls in love with someone she never expected to.

5. "Trouble With Angels"

There are new Indiana Jones movies, and not so new Indiana Jones movies. Watch all of them.

7. "Sound Of Music"


This one's a classic. If you don't know it you must be a sad, sad human.

8. "Gidget"

There's a tv show and a movie. They're both absolutely amazing. It's all about watching a young girl learn to surf and guide her way through life. After you watch it tell me how in love with Moondoggie you are.

9. "Tammy"


I'm not talking about the new Tammy. I'm talking about the 1950's Tammy. The Tammy where Debbie Reynolds is the star. We all know and love her from the Halloweentown movies, so give these a try. You won't be disappointed.

10. "The Cutting Edge"

Seen One Tree Hill lately? Remember Lucas's mother? Yeah, she's the star in this movie. This movie is about a figure skater that has an attitude problem. She makes ever eligible partner run off. Until she doesn't......

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.

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.

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.
