We're always excited to see the next horror or action or romance movie, but what about the ones we haven't seen yet? What about movies that are amazing but are just a little older? Why don't more people watch movies from the 1950's and on? Well we should change that. We should embrace the movies that helped inspire some of the new movies that come out today. Here are 10 movies from generations past that you need to watch.


1. "Seven Brides for Seven Brothers"

If you love musicals this is your movie. It has everything from kidnapping to falling in love to dance-offs. This movie will have you laughing, and maybe even crying.

2. "SHAG"

This is one of my favorite movies. It's about four girls that take a trip to Myrtle Beach to meet boys. Things don't go quite as expected though.

3. "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun"

While I think most of us know about this movie it's still one that we should all watch again..... and again ....and again.

4. "Overboard"

This movie is so funny. It's mainly about a rich snob that loses her memory and falls in love with someone she never expected to.

5. "Trouble With Angels"

There are new Indiana Jones movies, and not so new Indiana Jones movies. Watch all of them.

7. "Sound Of Music"


This one's a classic. If you don't know it you must be a sad, sad human.

8. "Gidget"

There's a tv show and a movie. They're both absolutely amazing. It's all about watching a young girl learn to surf and guide her way through life. After you watch it tell me how in love with Moondoggie you are.

9. "Tammy"


I'm not talking about the new Tammy. I'm talking about the 1950's Tammy. The Tammy where Debbie Reynolds is the star. We all know and love her from the Halloweentown movies, so give these a try. You won't be disappointed.

10. "The Cutting Edge"

Seen One Tree Hill lately? Remember Lucas's mother? Yeah, she's the star in this movie. This movie is about a figure skater that has an attitude problem. She makes ever eligible partner run off. Until she doesn't......

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
