Stop Everything And Watch These 20 Halloween Movies
Sanderson Sisters

With Halloween right around the corner, it's time to break out the decorations and get spooky! All the candy, costumes and creepiness is so much fun! But besides all of the fun Halloween activities, one of my favorite parts of Halloween is watching movies. I've never been a scary-movie type of person, because I've always hated the pop-ups, blood, guts, and gore type of stuff.

However, I put together a small list of movies that have always been my favorite to watch near Halloween. Check them out!

1. "Corpse Bride"

A shy groom accidentally says the right vows to the wrong woman, who happens to be dead.

2. "Coraline"

3."Halloweentown"

Marnie is a witch...everyone knows this one.


4. "Beetlejuice"

The 2013 version is the third adaptation of this film, based off Stephen King's 1974 novel.



12. "The Birds"

His name is self-explanatory.

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.
