Do you ever feel like there are lots of great movies hiding in the world of Netflix? Are you sick of seeing the same 8 movies suggested over and over again? Are you wanting more? If you answered yes, you're in luck. Here are 11 movies available on Netflix (and a few bonus ones that aren't) that I think are well worth your time.

1. "The Best Offer"

... Virgil Oldman is an elderly and esteemed but eccentric genius art-expert, known and appreciated by the world. Oldman is hired by a solitary young heiress, Claire Ibbetson, to auction off the large collection of art and antiques left to her by her parents.

2. "The Fundamentals of Caring"

A man suffering an incredible amount of loss enrolls in a class about care-giving that changes his perspective on life.

3. "Philomena"

A world-weary political journalist picks up the story of a woman's search for her son, who was taken away from her decades ago after she became pregnant and was forced to live in a convent.

4. "Fruitvale Station"

The story of Oscar Grant III, a 22-year-old Bay Area resident, who crosses paths with friends, enemies, family, and strangers on the last day of 2008.

5. "Mr. Nobody"

A boy stands on a station platform as a train is about to leave. Should he go with his mother or stay with his father? Infinite possibilities arise from this decision. As long as he doesn't choose, anything is possible.

6. "Take This Waltz"


A happily married woman falls for the artist who lives across the street.

7. "Beginners"

A young man is rocked by two announcements from his elderly father: that he has terminal cancer, and that he has a young male lover.

8. "The Imitation Game"

During World War II, mathematician Alan Turing tries to crack the enigma code with help from fellow mathematicians.

9. "Atonement"

Fledgling writer Briony Tallis, as a thirteen-year-old, irrevocably changes the course of several lives when she accuses her older sister's lover of a crime he did not commit.

10. "Across the Universe"

The music of the Beatles and the Vietnam War form the backdrop for the romance between an upper-class American girl and a poor Liverpudlian artist.

11. "Big Eyes"

A drama about the awakening of painter Margaret Keane, her phenomenal success in the 1950s, and the subsequent legal difficulties she had with her husband, who claimed credit for her works in the 1960s.

Unfortunately, Netflix has removed many great movies. Should they ever come back (or if you want to find them elsewhere), be sure to check out "Call Me Crazy," "Ray," "The Lady in the Van," "Flypaper," and "Stuck in Love."

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
