Christmas. The best time of the year! As Christmas is quickly approaching everyone is trying to feel the holiday spirit. If you LOVE Christmas and want to feel more holiday spirit, keep reading. If you still LOVE Christmas but are in a holiday funk, keep reading. Below is a list of movies to get you HYPED about Christmas. If you are not a fan of Christmas, please leave.

1. Elf

Once you watch Elf, you just know that it's Christmas time. What's better than watching Will Ferrell as an Elf???

2. Polar Express

This movie will always remind you of childhood and the pure happiness of seeing Santa Claus. When watching this movie, make sure to grab a mug of hot cocoa and cozy up by the fire.

3. Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer

This is a CLASSIC. It is an older movie but so sweet. I bet your parents used to watch this when they were kids also! It is a 10/10 family movie. Watch it during your next family night and then bake some sugar cookies.

4. Grinch

Wow. An all-time favorite! The Grinch is a very relatable character especially as a college student during finals week or just any week basically. The ending is the best part because Christmas always WINS.

5. Charlie Brown Christmas

Another classic because who doesn't love Charlie Brown...?

6. Unaccompanied Minors

Imagine being stuck in an airport around Christmas time with your siblings, friends, or random kids? When I first watched this movie as a kid I thought it sounded like so much fun... but re-watching it, it seems like a horrible situation. This movie is def going to make you laugh, cry, or scream (or all the above).

7. A Christmas Story

Surprise, surprise...another classic. This one is another great one to watch with the family.

8. Home Alone

The thrill of Christmas time with family at the end makes you feel all warm and fuzzy. There are also some great scenes in this movie that are bound to make you laugh.

9. Christmas with the Kranks

Is it really a good Christmas movie without Tim Allen??? Also another classic and probably a movie that your Mom or Dad is down to watch.

I hope looking at this list made you smile and think of the Christmas cheer that the holidays bring. Start watching all these movies before Christmas, or if you already have, watch them again (all of these are def binge-worthy)!!!

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.
