This past year had some amazing movies. Here are some of my favorites, in no particular order, of course.

"Love, Simon"

I love this lighthearted romantic drama comedy. The story was amazing and real! It was a nice step for LGBT youth as it wasn't tragic and the romance wasn't forbidden. The simplicity and realistic qualities were good.

"Hereditary"

This amazing and creepy horror film shook me and everyone that watched it. After two times, I still don't fully understand the story. I loved how scary it was without any jump scares. I would love to see a prequel or sequel.

"Incredibles 2"

When I heard about the sequel to this iconic Pixar movie I was really excited and this movie didn't disappoint. From Violet's romance to Jack-Jacks power, Edna Moda and the whole gang is back for this amazing adventure.

"Midnight Sun"

Is this film cheesy? Yes! Is it cute and sweet? Hells yes! The chemistry between Bella Thorne and Patrick Schwarzenegger is amazing and while it is cute, it is also real. I love this movie!

"The Nun"

This movie was really scary and the story was good. Seeing this movie made me get invested in the "Conjuring" series. I love seeing how the parts tie together and the conspiracy theories.

"Searching"

This movie was so creative and so suspenseful. No one saw the ending coming! The plot was realistic and I loved how the whole movie wasn't professionally filmed.

"Crazy Rich Asians"

This was so fun and so uplifting. The story and characters were amazing. I love how Asian diversity was included!

"To All The Boys I've Loved Before"

This movie was so good and Lara Jean and Peter were so cute! The movie encaptures the emotions of teenage romance. I was pleasantly surprised.

"Every Day"

A spirit who wakes up in a new body every day falls for a girl. I thought this was so cute and a nice twist on the classic teenage romance tale.

 "Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again"

This movie was so good! The music and story was incredible and I still sing the songs to this day. It did not disappoint.

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.
