Disney


1. Hocus Pocus

The Halloween classic.If you have not watched Hocus Pocus, you have not fully lived out your Halloween childhood. This movie follows a boy, who gets into trouble with some born again witches. Of course there is a love story, paired with comedy, a slight amount of spookyness and inevitably a sappy ending.

2. Twitches


Maybe I'm partial to this movie because I am a twin, but this Disney classic is a great blast from the past. In this movie, two twins separated ar birth discover that they have powers past human extent. Paired with an alternate universe, this movie has more to offer than the amazing actresses Tia and Tamara. Plus, there's a sequel

3. Halloweentown


Again, this is another Disney classic. But this one is a trilogy (not counting the awful the reboot in 2006). So, you can have a complete marathon of Hallowteentown with some close friends and fully immerse yourself in Halloween spirit. Plus, these movies are chalked full with action and of course Disney magic.

4. Nightmare Before Christmas


This animated masterpiece should not be missed this Halloween. Not only is it one of Tim Burton's classics, it is surely a movie that everyone can enjoy. Plus it's that one movie that you can sneak in before Christmastime to start to get you into the Holiday mood.

5. Casper (1995)


This was my childhood favorite. I love so many parts about this film. The main character is basically who aspired to be when I was younger. Plus, who doesn't love a story involving Casper the friendly ghost. Also let's not forget my favorite scene when a newly humanized Casper walks down the staircase to an enchanted Wendy. My childhood heart swoons every time.

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.

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.
