Being sad sucks. For me, the best way to get over my sad feelings is to watch movies. They often cheer me up and give me a better perspective on my sad life. Watching movies are the best way to get over a breakup, a death or even just a terrible day. So, here are 5 movies that are sure to turn your terrible day into a great day!

1. Bee Movie

Sure, this might not have been the first movie that you would expect me to put on the list. But I did. The Bee Movie is a great movie to watch when you are sad. The movie takes you into the animated world of bees. This world is colorful and overall a happy place to live in. Of course, the movie does take a sharp turn in the middle when the beekeepers are sued by the bees. But I can promise you that the end of the movie will put you in good spirits!

2. Arrival

If you are an alien freak, or just really like science fiction, then this is the perfect movie for you. Arrival follows a professor that has to try and communicate with an alien species that has landed on earth. Of course the other nations of the world begin to expect suspicious circumstances about the aliens and war is their answer. While this movie is very scientific-focused, it does make you have a better perspective on life. If you are having a rough day, and you want a little scientific fun, then this movie is for you.

3. Deadpool

This hilarious movie can put anyone in a good mood. Deadpool follows Ryan Reynolds' character as he takes on the persona of deadpool after a maniac does surgery on him to make him a superhuman. The movie, which came out in early 2016, got great reviews when it was in theaters. This movie can change anyone’s attitude after it is watched. The next time you need a good laugh then try Deadpool.

4. Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy

Anchorman is one of the most iconic movies from the modern era. It is often quoted and very easily recognizable. Anchorman follows Ron Burgundy, played by Will Ferrell, as he battles Veronica Corningstone for the top position as anchorman. This movie is not only funny but also sends you back to the early 70’s as the anchormen are the staple of the era. This movie can make anyone’s day better.

5. The Pursuit of Happyness

This movie is a feel good movie that can put anyone in a better mood. The Pursuit of Happyness is an overall sad movie with a pretty happy ending. It's a must watch for anyone. It follows Chris Gardner and his son as Chris is set out to find a job to make his son's life better. Throughout the movie you might cry or even feel mad. But at the end you will feel a lot better and even have a better perspective on your life.

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.

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.

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.
