27 Movies To Watch During Winter Break
Odyssey

Breaks from school are always fun, although there are some days when I have nothing to do. It's days like these that I like to curl up in a blanket with a cup of hot chocolate and watch movies. There are so many movies out there though, so sometimes I have no clue what to watch. Here is a list of movies for you to watch or re-watch during vacation.

1. "Home Alone" - Every single one.

2. "A Cinderella Story" - This one is FINALLY on Netflix!

3. "Naomi and Ely's No Kiss List" - I'm not sure if this is still on Netflix but I saw it when it was. (A++)

4. "Begin Again" - This movie left me speechless, and if you like music you'll really enjoy this too.

5. "Love Actually" - I haven't seen this yet but I heard it's great.

6. "Abducted" - This movie came out a few years ago and I know certain people that hate it. Although I re-watch it a lot and I know the ending, the movie keeps me on the edge of my seat all the time. (A++)

7. "Speed" - Old but awesome!

8. "Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close" - I don't cry from movies, but this one made me cry uncontrollably. Out of all movies on this list you should watch this first.

9. "White House Down" - Channing Tatum (simple as that).

10. "Salt" - Did you know the lead role (played by Angelina Jolie) was supposed to be a male originally? Well Jolie was epic!

11. "Divergent" - As usual, the book was better. Although, it was a great movie and they brought certain parts of the book to life really well.

12. "Finding Dory" - Because more millennials were excited about this than children.

13. "Sky High" - On Netflix!

14. "13th" - I had to watch this for my sociology class, it was very interesting.

15. "Man on Wire" - Haven't seen this yet, but I'm planning to watch it this weekend.

16. "Paper Towns" - I only watched this because I read the book and I wanted to compare them. It was really cute and there were certain parts where my friends and I erupted with laughter.

17. "The Fault in Our Stars" - A+++ (Dramedy).

18. "Ghost" - A+++++ (Romantic Fantasy).

19. "The Call" - Epic!

20. "Legally Blonde" - A throwback for old times sake.

21. "Silence of the Lambs" - If you have a weak stomach don't watch this...

22. "Mean Girls" - Watch it on a Wednesday ;)

23. "The Pacifier" - This is such a family movie, it's one reason why I love it.

24. "The Perks of Being a Wallflower" - A++ (An adaptation of the coming-of-age novel).

25. "The Great Gatsby" - I saw the one from 2000 and the one from 2013, both were great.

26. "The Martian" - I watched this on a flight to Puerto Rico, and I loved it. It was a little boring at first, but the ending turned out pretty cool.

27. "The Purge: Election Year" - Because everything that has happened over the course of this years election was terrifying as well.

Hope you guys enjoy your break!

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.
