5 Must-Watch Movies For Romance Or Comedy Lovers

Personally I love movies that I can actually relate to, so I am not big into fantasy movies or cartoon type movies. These five movies that I have chosen, pretty much anybody can relate to at least one of them if not all of them. They are all a little old, but they are truly classics. Whether you like a good romance movie or a good comedy here are my top five must-watch movies that will give you both:

1. "The Breakfast Club"

The movie may be 38 years old but it is a true classic must-watch. You get everything in it with romance and some comedy here and there. Also it is a high school setting, and most of us have went or will go to high school, so anyone can relate to it.

Especially because it is about five high school students from all different backgrounds who get stuck in a day of detention together. Whether you were the jock, the quiet one, the privileged popular girl, the brainy guy or the rebel guy there is some character you can relate to in this movie.

2. "10 Things I Hate About You"

While not being quite as old as "The Breakfast Club," the movie "10 Things I Hate About You" is yet another classic, at least in my book. Again just about anyone can relate to this movie. I mean who has not had a Bianca Stratford moment willing to do just about anything to fit in?

Also, the movie teaches some great life lessons such as dating the most popular guy in school really is not everything.

3. "Say Anything"

This romance movie is yet another one of my favorite must-watch movies. The boy who is in love with a girl who does not even know he exists, who has not related to this? Anyways no spoilers but her rich dad who tried very hard could not keep her away from said boy.

4. "Can't Buy Me Love"

The movie has McDreamy aka Derrick Shepherd aka Patrick Dempsey aka in this movie Ronald (Donald) Miller and who would not want to watch a movie with Patrick Dempsey in it even if he is a little dorky?? Plus it is a classic love story that just about everyone loves and also just about anyone could relate to some character in the movie.

5. "St. Elmo's Fire"

Save the best for last right? This one is my personal favorite and while I and many others may not fully relate to it yet it gives people something to look forward to. The movie is about a group of college students who have just graduated and are now out living in the real world. I know scary, but after watching the movie I hope to find my group of people like the group in St. Elmo's Fire while I am in college.


While these movies may not be the newest out of the box office they are true classics and I recommend that everyone watch these top five must-watch movies.

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

College is an endless cycle of crappy, sleepless nights, tedious, boring lectures, and hours of never-ending piles of homework.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
