Now that thanksgiving is over, it is time to start thinking about Christmas. We start putting up the trees and started shopping for gifts. My favorite thing about this time a year is getting to pull out all the movies that you don't typically watch any other time of the year. So, here are a few of my favorites.

1. How the Grinch Stole Christmas

Okay, let's be honest. This is everyone's favorite Christmas movie (except for the fact that Cindy Loo Hoo is now a Jennie from Brooklyn aka little J). But anyway, if were being honest with ourselves here then we all know why we love this movie so much. We are the Grinch inside really (minus hating Christmas) but I've been saying for years that he is my spirit animal and I'll fight you if you say that isn't true.

2. Home Alone

All of the home alone movies are great because it is another story showing how adults are stupid and that you shouldn't have more than two kids. Really though, who leaves a kid? Either way, we all love this movie because it is hilarious and it kind of made us want to take on New York by ourselves too.

3. Santa Clause

Yet another great Christmas movie series. This is definitely a good laugh for the holiday season even though the last one makes you want to scream at times. But Charlie growing up and acting out because his dad is santa gives me the feels every time.

4. Polar Express

All Aboard the Polar Express! Don't act like you didn't hope this train would be at your house after you saw this for the first time. I mean really any movie with Tom Hanks is great, but this movie is a child's dream from the hot chocolate to meeting santa.

5. Elf

This movie is great when you're in the holiday mood and you want a great laugh. There is nothing funnier than this movie around Christmas time and if you don't love this movie then you have a sad, sad life.

6. The Night Before

This is a great adult Christmas movie. It's super inappropriate, but it's so funny. It's also sadly realist because when you get older and settle down this what happens to traditions with your friends. It makes me sad to think about, but happy to watch.

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.
