My Top 10 Christmas Movies List

"The best way to spread Christmas cheer, is singing loud for all to hear"

My Top 10 Christmas Movies List

Here's 10 movies I will be watching this holiday season that I think you should be watching too:

1) Elf

This is my all time favorite Christmas movie EVER. It doesn't even have to be around the holiday season; I'll still watch it in the middle of July. I'm pretty sure I'm close to memorizing every single word, too. (Don't judge me)

2) A Christmas Story

From the sexy leg lamp Ralph's dad won, to the ugly Pepto Bismol pink bunny rabbit suit Ralph had to put on; there's nothing that can beat this classic.

3) Home Alone

Come on. We all secretly wanted our houses to be robbed when we were 8-years-old so we could be as cool as Kevin McCallister and outsmart stupid burglars and set up traps too...or maybe it was just me.

4) The Grinch

No, not the real life version with Jim Carrey in it. I'm talking about the old fashioned Dr. Seuss version a.k.a the BEST one.

5) Santa Claus

This used to be my all time favorite movie as a kid mainly because I wanted my dad to accidentally make Santa Claus fall off the roof and then magically become him forever so I could live at the North pole and it could be all about Christmas every single day. #goals

6) Jack Frost

In case you're wondering, I'm not talking about the creepy serial killer one from 1996. And for those who didn't know there was a creepy serial killer Jack Frost movie, there is one and I do NOT recommend it. I'm talking about the one that's kind of weird since a snowman comes to life, but the meaning behind it is special. As a child, I didn't truly grasp the concept, but now I do. And I think it's very heartwarming.

7) Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer

Even though the abominable snowman scared the crap out of me, I low-key wanted Rudolph as a pet because of this movie. #imnotevenjoking

8) The Holiday

I discovered this movie early in the year on Netflix, and now it's one of my favorites! Jack Black, Kate Winslet, Cameron Diaz and Jude Law are in it as well as many other well known actors. It's the perfect Christmas rom-com if you ask me!

9) Just Friends

Okay, seeing Ryan Reynolds in a fat suit and talking like a creepy obsessed man isn't something you see every day, but it's HILARIOUS because it's so relatable. I highly recommend this one if you're feeling like watching a "stupid" but "romantic" comedy.

10) The Polar Express

And finally, this one finishes off my list. I remember watching this as a kid and hoping the train would stop at my house so I could stay up all night traveling to the North pole to see Santa Claus. *Spoiler Alert* Tom Hanks plays 3 characters in this movie which makes everything about this movie even more amazing.

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.
