Maybe I'm the only one, but I always forget about the movies I watched and loved, no matter how many times I've watched them. So if you're caught up in a stressful workload, I highly recommend taking a break to watch one of these amazing movies that you might've forgotten about.

1. "Who Framed Roger Rabbit" (1988)

This will go down in history as a classic; it has all the elements of one! Romance, scandal, drama, and action... yes I know it's a cartoon but that doesn't make it any less of a movie.

2. "Space Jam" (1996)

Yes, another cartoon, but it's a basketball movie and a sci-fi movie all in one! Plus, if you've ever gone as Lola bunny for Halloween, and you haven't seen this movie, you're probably a terribly awful person.

Also, Michael Jordan. Micheal Jordan plays himself in this movie, which means that someone asked Micheal Jordan the basketball player, to become Michael Jordan the actor, to play the role of himself, and act with the majority of the rest of the cast being cartoons, and he said yes. That deserves this bonus gif.


3. "The Proposal" (2009)


Sandra Bullock is Ryan Reynolds boss, and she forces him to marry him so she doesn't get deported. Name a funnier scenario.

4. "The Imitation Game" (2014)

Benedict Cumberbatch plays a math genius that solves the enigma code and basically invents the computer. That thing you're reading this on right now? Yeah, you owe it to this guy, so watch this movie.

5. "The Breakfast Club" (1985)

Do I need to explain? I will, but I really shouldn't have to. Actually, no I won't, just go watch it.

6. "Footloose" (2011)

A movie you can watch and sing and dance along to?! This was the OG high school musical except there's a plot and it's actually a good movie.

7. "The Princess Bride" (1987)

Okay watching the male lead roll down a mountain screaming "as you wish" and then watching the princess roll down that same mountain because she realized she was in love with him is hilarious and you know it.

8. "The Godfather" (1972)

If you haven't seen this I'm pretty sure you aren't allowed into movie theaters.

9. "The Godfather 2" (1974)

Yes, this is the sequel to the last one, but it deserved its own number.

10. "The Great Gatsby" (2013)

Yes, it's cheesy, and yes, I know you read it in high school and your English teacher probably made you hate it by talking about the symbolism of the green light. But, the movie would never make you talk about symbolism, the movie would never do that to you. Leonardo dicaprio is in it, so watch it because sometimes you just need a cheesy movie with Leo, yah know?

These movies are def the best way to procrastinate doing homework. Feel free to let me know if I left any important ones off the list, but these are definitely the set of movies that you have to watch in order to pick up on weird references in daily life. You're welcome.

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.

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.
