The following movies I have personally watched at least 12 times. They are that good. These are the types of movies that you tweet about and tell everyone that “we have to watch this right now” at movie nights. And of course, the best part is they are all on Netflix. So no need to scroll through Netflix for twenty minutes before settling for a bad Adam Sandler flick anymore, I have saved the day with this list!

1. "Jamesy Boy"

Okay so this is my favorite movie of all time next to "Titanic", no exaggeration. It tells this crazy story about a 14-year-old boy who looks like a really ugly cross between Justin Bieber and Channing Tatum. He’s on the brink of screwing his life up forever when he decides to drop out of school and join a gang. The storytelling is top notch in this as well. Oh and it’s based on a true story.

2. "Crossroads"

I feel like I shouldn’t have to say much as to why you should watch this because Britney Spears is in it; that should be the only reason you need. Also this story is deep and super crazy! And she performs a badass cover of “I love Rock N Roll”

3. "Save the Last Dance"

This movie is a must watch mostly because it is so late nineties/early 2000s. But it’s also one of the greatest love stories of all time; forbidden love. Talk about relationship goals!!

4."Four Brothers"

Okay this movie is basically Jamesy Boy on steroids. These four very different guys all shared the same foster mother together growing up. When the lose her to gang violence, the four team up as brothers to find the killer of their mother. And Sofia Vergara and Mark Whalberg are hilarious, dime pieces like always.

5. "Scooby Doo Spooky Island"

Don’t act like this wasn’t your favorite movie at one point in your childhood. I mean we’re talking about a real-life Scooby Doo here. I honestly believed that a real dog had those ghost-fighting capabilities so props to the technical animation team. This movie is just as great to watch as a 19-year-old, mainly because you finally understand all the jokes.

So next movie night I beg of you: please watch these must-watches! They’ll make you laugh, they’ll make you cry, they’ll make you forever

grateful that I provided you with this list! Happy Netflix and Chill Season

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
