11 Reasons Why Love Actually Is The Best
The Mad Movie Man

It's official, Love Actually is the best movie there ever was! While it's technically a Christmas movie, it can really be watched at any time during the year. Whether it is snowing outside or blazing hot, the witty humor and heart warming love stories will pull you in any day of the year. All the characters have intricate love lives that wrap around each other creating the perfect romantic comedy. And best of all, you can watch it over and over again without getting tired of it!

1. Colin Firth's Love Life

While his storyline breaks your heart in the first ten minutes of the movie, his love life quickly mends your broken heart with a new romance and a few laughs along the way.

2. Hugh Grant's Dancing

This scene was the absolute best! And reminds us all of our dad's dancing just a little bit.

3. This Scene Altogether

Your heart melted, and you shed some tears. Admit it.

4. When You Find Out Sam's In Love

Sam taught us that no one is too young to be in love.

5. The Wedding Scene

Even though I was always secretly rooting for Mark and Juliet, this scene was too cute not to love.

6. Karl and Sarah

Dang, I wish their love story would have worked out. But hey, I loved watching it unfold!

7. When Aurelia Says Yes

It's hard to pick favorites... but their love story ranks very high on my list.

8. This Song

While they make it out to be a terrible song in the movie... it's actually not that bad. It will also be stuck in your head hours after the movie ends.

9. The Prime Minister And Natalie

Love him. Love her. Love them. Now if the president could just quit getting involved that would be great....

10. The Airport Scene

No matter who your favorite characters are, the airport scene seems to give everyone a happy, feel good ending. Especially Sam and Daniel.

11. The Calm Before The Storm

Oh, how I remember this scene. The scene before Karen realizes what Snape... I mean Harry has done to his marriage. While this scene rips the hearts of Love Actually fans apart, it makes the movie even more addicting.


All in all, Love Actually is an incredible movie packed will all your favorite actors. It's heartwarming, humorous, and at times even sad, and perfect for this time of year! If you have never seen Love Actually I urge you to do so! You certinly won't regret it!

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.

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.
