Have you ever watched a movie and began to feel like you were actually amongst the characters and scenery? Like you were submersed into the storyline and had no idea what conflict you would encounter next? Trust me when I say, I have had those exact inquires.

Nonetheless, I usually have these types of feelings when I am watching some of my favorite movie classics.

Now, when I state the word "classic" I literally mean some of the best vintage cinema known to man. I absolutely adore the music, characters, and every single aspect that makes up these classic movies. "The Sound of Music," "The Wizard of Oz," and "Mary Poppins" are just a few movies that I hold near and dear to my heart.

Their talented cast and unique storylines makes each one of these films special. Since I cherish each one differently, I thought it would be great to share why I love these cinema classics so dearly.

1. The Sound of Music

I know I have written an article about "The Sound of Music" before, but I mean come on, this movie has got to be at the top of everyone's favorite classic movie list.

So many elements in this movie make it unique and special. First off, "The Sound of Music" has a stellar cast, led by the wonderful Julie Andrews. She is by far my biggest role model. Andrews is so poised, beautiful, talented, and quite honestly wonderful in all aspects.

However, Andrews is not the only reason I adore "The Sound of Music." The catchy tunes and gorgeous Austrian landscape are also attributes that made this film an instant success.

I could honestly go on and on about why this classic movie is the best; however, I'll just let you all watch and decide for yourselves.

2. The Wizard of Oz

The "Wizard of Oz" provides me with a great amount of memories made with my grandma. I can remember going over to her home and watching this wonderful film over and over again.

Judy Garland, otherwise known as Dorothy, was another woman who inspired me greatly. I felt like I related to her since Dorothy grew up in the Midwest and lived on a farm. Although, Dorothy is not the only reason I watched this film continuously.

The Cowardly Lion, Tin-Man, and Scarecrow made this movie that much more light-hearted and fun. However, I won't lie and say that I wasn't intimidated by the Wicked Witch and the flying monkeys.


3. Mary Poppins

As you can obviously observe, I have always loved movies that have some sort of vintage charm. If it wasn't for my grandma's great taste in films and love of music, I don't think I would be as passionate as I am when it comes to classic movies. Nonetheless, I encourage all of you to view these particular movies and take in each aspect.

I can promise you won't regret it.

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.
