Let's be honest, one of our favorite parts of the Christmas season is watching Christmas movies and specials. Therefore, here are the Top 25 things you need to watch this Christmas season.

25. Unaccompanied Minors (2006)

Low quality, but still highly underrated movie.

24. Rudolph's Shiny New Year (1976)

Old, poor quality TV special, but it's a classic.

23. Prep & Landing (2009, 2011)

Newer Disney special, and it has a sequel that came out a few years later. Cute and funny special.

22. Frosty The Snowman (1969)

A classic.

21. Santa Claus Is Comin' To Town (1970)

20. A Christmas Carol (1984)

There are a lot of adaptations, but my personal favorite is the George C. Scott version. All classics though.

19. The Year Without A Santa Claus (1974)

Who can forget Heatmeiser and Snowmeiser?

18. Meet Me In St. Louis (1944)

Judy Garland's version of "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas" still gives me chills.

17. Miracle on 34th Street

I didn't put a year on this one because there are two versions, and both are great.

16. Rudolph, The Red-Nosed Reindeer (1964)

I think everyone watches this special pretty annually.

15. The Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause (2006)

Yes, the other two are on here. I LOVE these movies, but some people don't love this one.

14. Home Alone 2: Lost In New York (1992)

Yes this movie is great, but the first one is better.

13. The Santa Clause 2 (2002)

Again, I love these, but the first one is the best.

12. A Charlie Brown Christmas (1965)

Another special that I feel like everyone watches pretty regularly.

11. The Polar Express (2004)

10. Dr. Seuss' How The Grinch Stole Christmas (1966)

The animated adaptation is fantastic, but the movie is yet to come on this list.

9. A Christmas Story (1983)

You'll shoot your eye out!

8. Holiday Inn (1942)

Bing Crosby stars in this film, therefore it screams Christmas.

7. Elf (2003)

Now some will be upset that I have this one at number seven and not higher, and y'all it's good, but there is better.

6. Home Alone (1990)

5. National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation (1989)

I think we all aspire to match Clark Griswold's decorating prowess.

4. White Christmas (1954)

Again, Bing Crosby = Christmas. Also George Clooney's mom is in this, so that's fun.

3. The Santa Clause (1994)

2. Dr. Seuss' How The Grinch Stole Christmas (2000)

1. It's A Wonderful Life (1946)

Obviously.

So here is just one list, which is by no means comprehensive. There are so many more things to watch, so pick your favorite and cozy up with sweets and loved ones, and enjoy!

Merry Christmas!

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.
