Best Movies To Watch On A Rainy Day

Rainy days are made for curling up on your coach with a blanket, a bowl of popcorn, and a good movie. Movies are perfect for that gloomy afternoon. Here are the best movies to watch when your stuck home on a rainy day (or if you’re bored)

Clueless (1995)

Hands down one of the most classic movies of our generation. Cher is so relatable, honest, and wears the most exciting outfits. Tai basically knows how we are feeling at all times and Dion always has her friends’ backs. It’s one of the only movies where popularity is used to do good instead of evil. “Rollin with the Homies” will never get old and it is always appropriate to scream out “As if!” Oh, and don’t forget how cute Paul Rudd is.

13 Going on 30 (2004)

Jenna Rink wishes to be “thirty, flirty, and thriving.” Her wish comes true and she wakes up in NYC, running a fashion magazine, with no recollection of her childhood. Nothing is better than curling up with a bag of razzle’s with Jenna and Matty, watching Jenna navigate adulthood while still being stuck in the 80s.


Parent Trap (1998)

If you say you hate Lindsey Lohan, I probably hate you. From the handshake, the soundtrack, and the pranks, there is nothing better than watching Annie and Hallie realize their twins, and not just sisters. Absolutely no one can hate this movie, and if you do, don’t be surprised if your mattress ends up in the middle of the lake.

A Cinderella Story (2004)

Hilary Duff. Chad Michael Murray. Even though the movie was released twelve years ago, it still is relevant. Hilary’s choker necklace couldn’t be more in and Chad Michael Murray still makes us swoon. The diner staff was the perfect family and Fiona made you never want to eat salmon again.

Freaky Friday (2003)

Every daughter and mother argue, but they don’t switch places. Imagine this. Really think about your mother being inside your body and vis-versa. Freaky Friday provides us with constant humor, real-life mother daughter bickering, and of course heartthrob, Chad Michael Murray.

John Tucker Must Die (2006)

Friendship, female empowerment, and sucky relationships are issues we can all relate to. Every character showed us they understood our high school problems and were just as awkward as we ever were. Sophia Bush is unreal, Kate’s mom gives the best advice, the sass is perfect, and the girls weren’t afraid to make the first move. John Tucker’s body is on point and Brittney Snow nails it.

Cheaper by the Dozen (2003)

Honestly, nothing beats a family of 12 kids, Steve Martin, and lots of comical adventures. The Baker family is your average American family. They never let each other down, are always having a good time, can’t survive without each other, and like to soak strangers’ underwear in meat.

Legally Blonde (2001)

Elle Woods does it all. She’s smart, pretty, and knows what she wants. Her loser ex-boyfriend dumps her because she isn’t smart enough for him, so she proves him wrong by getting into the same law school as him, which happens to be Harvard. Elle uses her knowledge on clothes and beauty products to solve a murder. Whoever said black was the new pink was completely wrong.

Mean Girls (2004)

"Mean Girls" has it all. From lessons on girl code and friendship to the catchy one-liners, there is no reason not to love the plastics and all their drama. The movie teaches us that on Wednesdays we wear pink, that fetch will never happen, it’s okay to wear army pants and flip-flops, and that the limit will never exist.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week.

All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
