Valentines Day on Thursday, February 14th is coming up. But even more QUICKLY approaching is ~~Galentines Day~~ on February 13th. Galentines is about "ladies celebrating ladies." So round up your best gals, put on your best face masks and coziest pants, and watch one of the movies below!!

1. Sex and the City: The Movie

Netflix

A bougie girl power movie! Follow Samantha, Charlotte, Miranda, and Carrie as they embark on another adventure, beginning with heartbreak, ending with love, and filled with ridiculously lavish vacations and fancy shoes. This is available on Netflix.

2. Girls Trip

A raunchy, girl power movie! This over-the-top movie is a lot like a more fun, crazy, modern version of Sex and the City. The women go to NOLA for the Essence Festival. They have multiple run-ins with police, press, men, and even a zipline. Currently available on Redbox.

3. A Simple Favor

Instagram: @asimplefavor

A mysterious, risqué movie! This movie features Blake Lively, Anna Kendrick, and ~Henry Golding~. Blake's character goes missing, Anna tries to find her, while developing a romance with Blake's husband, Henry. A disaster. Super chic and a hint of dark humor. Available on Redbox.

4. TAG

Instagram: @tagthemovie

A funny, lighthearted adventure movie! I am a big fan of this movie, because I love the fact that it is based on a true story. A group of men playing tag once a month since childhood. They infiltrate each other's homes, workplaces, and even weddings to tag each other. Hilarious antics and conniving plans. Available on Redbox.

5. 13 Going On 30

Instagram: @dreamingysl

An adorably cheesy, girly movie! This early 2000's movie featuring Jennifer Garner is a feel good, cute commentary on growing up and GIRL POWER! You can watch this on Amazon Prime for $2.99.

6. Clueless

Instagram: @cluelessthemovie

A sassy, totally 90's iconic movie! As if!! This total valley girl movie is the OG Mean Girls. Cher's iconic yellow plaid outfit has made more Halloween costumes than I can count. Hilariously 90's and featuring a young Paul Rudd! You can also rent this classic for $2.99 on Amazon Prime.

7. Mamma Mia

Instagram: @mammamiamovie

A sing-along, quirky movie! This is my 2nd favorite movie of all time. You may initially think it's about a wedding, but it is really about finding out who Sophie's father is, while learning about the hijinks and relationships of Donna (MERYL STREEP) and her three past lovers. My favorite part is the old-ish lady trio, Donna and the Dynamos. Just watch this movie and sing your heart out to ABBA classics. Available on Netflix.

8. Mamma Mia 2: Here We Go Again

Instagram: @mammamiamovie

An even BETTER sing-along, even MORE quirky movie! What's the only thing better than Mamma Mia?? ANOTHER Mamma Mia!! I think the songs in this one are even better than the first. Waterloo. When I Kissed the Teacher?? This movie is absolute madness, featuring 72-year-old Cher being 69-year-old Meryl Streep's mother. You can probably rent this online somewhere, but I recommend going out and buying the DVD. And keeping it with you at all times. I just love this movie.

9. What Happened to Monday

Instagram: @movie_review18

A dark, suspenseful movie! If you guys are in the mood for an action packed, mysterious thriller set in a dystopian society with strange rules, watch this movie. You guys will be on the edge of your seats wondering WHAT happened to Monday?? Available on Netflix!!

10. Monty Python and the Holy Grail

Instagram: @artist_with_a_body

A random, giggly movie! For the fun group of gals with dry senses of humor that love BBC. This British movie will have you guys laughing the entire time at the proposterous-ness of this movie, as well as shouting lovable phrases like, "It's just a flesh wound!!," "Three, sir, three!!," and "We are the knights who say... NI" This is now available on Netflix!!

I hope these movies contribute to your best Galentine's yet!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
