5 Classic Movies You Need To See Right Now

I am a lover of classic films, particularly black-and-white ones. There's just something about them that reel me in. I've heard people say old films are better than newer ones but that is just a subjective opinion. Movies were good then and movies are good now. Here are some classic suggestions:

"Psycho" (1960)

My all-time favorite movie. This film has made me enjoy horror films (even if this one isn't the most scary). I would consider it a psychological thriller that people should definitely watch.

"The Bad Seed" (1956)

Another wonderful horror thriller movie dated back to the 1950s. I had to watch this movie for a class in high school and I'm glad I did. The actress who plays the main character did a wonderful job with her role.

"The Shining" (1980)

I promise this is the last horror movie on this list. The classic film is set in Colorado and sees Jack Nicholson play a character trying to get over writer's block, amongst other things. Definitely a must see.

"Planet of the Apes" (1968)

As of writing this article, I watched this film for the first time last night (which sparked my interest in this article). It was a huge feat for the time as makeup and costumes took hours to put on. This film deserves all the credit it has received.

"Mary Poppins" (1964)

I only watched this film recently for the first time as well. This highly memorable movie set a precedent for musicals that continue to this day. Fun fact: Julie Andrews starred in "The Sound of Music" only one year after "Mary Poppins" playing a nanny in both films.

I admit that I'm not the biggest movie person but I still enjoy one from time to time. This list is a great selection to choose from to watch.

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.
