13 Netflix Classics To Watch On Rainy Days
Netflix

Netflix has become an integral part of my rainy days. I cuddle up with my dog, burrito myself in a large blanket with a hot cup of coffee in my hands. I then proceed to binge watch movies and television shows. While there are a lot of new material on Netflix, below are classic series and movies that anyone will love.

1. Friends (1994-2004)

This ten seasoned television show tells the comedic stories of six friends in New York City. Monica, Chandler, Phoebe, Ross, Joey, and Rachel rely on each other through rough break-ups, crazy family members, and so much more.

2. The Little Rascals (1994)

The comedic film was inspired by the television series "Our Gang." It tells the story of Alfalfa and his mischievous gang navigating their way through the trials of bullies, cooties, and being in love.

3. Cheers (1982)

Set in downtown Boston, Sam, a former baseball player, and his gang meet some pretty interesting people in his bar. Together, they exchange witty banter with one another.

4. Princess Bride (1987)

Farmhand Westley must save his one true love Buttercup, after she is kidnapped by thieves and put under the clutches of an evil prince.

5. Grease (1978)

Though the new Grease just came out, John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John nail it as two high schoolers in love- much to their friends dismay.

6. West Wing (1999)

The West Wing shows the daily frustrations of democratic policy makers, struggling to better their country. They tackle the issues of war, gun control, health care, and much much more.

7. Good Will Hunting (1997)

Therapist, Sean Maguire helps unwilling young janitor, Will Hunting confront the demons of his past after a professor discovers that he is a math genius.

8. Frasier (1993)

Set in the heart of Boston, psychiatrist and hypocrite Frasier Crane gives advice over his own radio show while ignoring it in his own life creating awkward and uncomfortable moments in his personal life.

9. Hairspray (1988)

Though the 2007 film is good as well, Netflix has the 1988 Hairspray film. Young Tracy breaks open the racist social norms of Baltimore when she is casted on a television show after she wins the city over with her bubbly personality.

10. Gilmore Girls (2000)

This television tells the adventures of single mom, Lorelai and her smart and gifted daughter, Rory.

11. Forrest Gump (1994)

Forrest Gump tells the story of a friendly and simplistic man navigating through the historical events of the 1960s and 1970s.

12. Rent (2005)

Set in the 1990s, this film tackles the issues of sexuality, drugs, and AIDS in the United States. In the heart of New York City, eight friends battle the troubles of poverty, drugs, and AIDS through music.

13. To Kill A Mocking Bird (1962)

Based off of the Pulitzer prize award-winning book by Harper Lee, this movie tackles the issues of racism in the sixties. Scout Finch's world is turned upside down when her father Atticus decides to defend an innocent black man against bogus accusations of rape. The film may focus on the white characters, but the film shows a great amount about the transformation of the black identity, in film.

Bruce Springsteen's Top 7 Lyrics

Everything Bruce says in his classic rock songs.

Anyone who was born and raised in New Jersey (or anywhere really) knows of Bruce Springsteen, whether or not they like him is a whole other situation. I hope that his hundreds of classic rock songs and famous high energy performances, even in his sixties he can put on better concerts than people half his age, are at least recognizable to people of all ages. Love him or hate him (I identify with the former) you have to admit that some of his songs and interviews have inspirational quotes and lyrics.

New England Summers Are The BEST Summers

Why you should spend your next summer in New England.

Marconi Beach

Three years ago, I chose to attend college in Philadelphia, approximately 360 miles away from my small town in New Hampshire. I have learned many valuable lessons away from home, and have thoroughly enjoyed my time spent in Pennsylvania. One thing that my experience has taught me, however, is that it is absolutely impossible to beat a New England summer.

You cannot beat the beach. Believe it or not (which many people may not), New England has a long and beautiful coastline. Most of my high school summers were spent sitting on the Wall at Hampton Beach, getting sunburnt and eating Acai bowls from The Secret Spot. The Wall was the place to be both during the day and at night. We begin our days there with a KB's bagel and coffee, and end them with pizza and ice cream. It’s not a New England summer without that 4 p.m. text from someone, “Who wants to meet at the Wall tonight?” Nighttime is for Tripoli’s Pizza, the sound of waves, and wishes on shooting stars. Wednesday nights are especially important, as those are the nights that Hampton Beach sets off the weekly firework display.
