Halloween season is in full gear. Through munching on candy, going to haunted houses and carving pumpkins; we can't forget about the classic Halloween movies. Wether they're Disney Channel Movies or Horror Movies, there are definitely some Halloween classics that we all love.

1.Hocus Pocus

Hocus Pocus, a movie that definitely gives you the creeps. Plus who doesn't love the Sanderson sisters?

2.The Nightmare Before Christmas

Sometimes we aren't sure wether we should watch this movie around Halloween or Christmas time. It's became a holiday favorite and you have an excuse to watch it more than once in the holiday season.

3.Halloween

Jamie-Lee Curtis might be a familiar name if you've been keeping up with the FOX hit Scream Queens. Back in the 70's, she starred in one of the most classic movies of the Halloween season.

4.Psycho

Fun fact, Jamie-Lee Curtis' mother, Janet Leigh was the lead in Alfred Hitchcock's hit film Psycho. It's one of those movies that once you see it, it will never be the same. Hitchcock pushed Hollywood's boundaries with the infamous shower scene. If you can't get enough of Psycho, check out the 2012 film, Hitchcock.

5.The Addams Family

We've all seen an episode of The Addams Family sometime in our lives. Their legacy didn't stop in the 60's. Several Addams Family movies were made starting in the 1990's for a younger generation to be introduced to the famous family. Plus it's pretty hard to not sing along to the famous theme song. *snap, snap.*

6.Poltergeist

Poltergeist might be a familiar name from the recent remake of this horror classic. Made in the 80's, this movie is sure to freak you out. If you're a Poltergeist buff, learning about the "curse" that surrounds the cast of the original will spook you out even more.

7.Scream

If you've been watching FOX's Scream Queens or if you've seen any of the movies in the Scary Movie series, Scream might seem pretty familiar. With four films to the franchise, you have plenty to get hooked on. Once you watch the first film, you just want more and more of this terrifying on the loose, ghost man.

8.Halloweentown

Chances are if you grew up in the 2000's with cable, you've heard of Halloweentown. A favorite amongst Disney Channel viewers, We love the journey Marnie takes us on as we see what Halloweentown is like. It introduced Debbie Reynolds to a younger generation and nothing adds charm to a movie quite like Debbie Reynolds.

9.The Blair Witch Project

If you're a fan of the Paranormal Activity series, you'll love The Blair Witch Project. the two films documentary film style are very similar. Except this movie will have you be afraid to go camping.

10. It's The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown

Not all Halloween movies have to be scary. We all secretly love when this one is on during the Halloween season.

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.
