I don’t know if you have noticed but Netflix is going a little movie crazy lately, and I am happy. They literally have jacked up their on-demand movie queue and it has all the classics and then some. Plus they are also trying to include some more modern vibes. I decided to take their amazing surplus, and condense it into my favorite lists.

5. The Pacifier

Vin Diesel and Brittany Snow, before they were really famous. You saw it here first folks. This was by far the most hilarious movie of the 2000’s, and with these actors as uber famous people today. It’s nice to see what they were like before they got all famous. Maybe even discover, what made them that famous

4. Mona Lisa Smile

This is probably one of the most underrated Julia Roberts movies, but it crafts a compelling story about the value of females. Moreover, the lengths people went to in order to give us a valuable and more prominent role in society. I value the meaning and theme behind the piece and believe it’s a movie we all can learn from. Especially from the truly remarkable charm of Julia Roberts, Kristen Dunst, and Julia Stiles no less.

3. Daddy Day Care

This is one of the most iconic movies you will ever see. The cast was perfect and is the perfect balance between humorous and honest. While I may not be a dad/parent figure, I can tell that it was genuine attempt to capture the struggles of fatherhood.

2. Practical Magic

I watched this movie as a kid, and was super confused the whole time. However, once I watched it for real as an almost adult, I can appreciate the storyline more. I also recognize how messed up the sister’s actions were too.

1. 10 Things I Hate About You

The first time I watched this movie was actually on Netflix. The fact they included this classic coming- of age piece means everything. So naturally it was first on my top 5! It will definitely satisfy any teenage struggle fixes you have growing.

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.
