If you have a family that is anything like mine, you spend every evening during the holiday season watching a holiday movie. But what happens when you run out of movies to watch in the middle of December? Well, have no worries! Here are 10 non-Christmas movies that will still keep your holiday spirits up:

1. The Sound of Music

This is personally my all-time favorite movie. But with a strong message of following your heart and music that you will have you humming while baking it in the kitchen, this movie pairs perfectly with a warm fire and some eggnog.

2. Beauty and the Beast (2017)

The wintery castle will give you all the Christmas feels.

3. Remember the Titans


I mean, what's Christmas without football?

4. Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory

For the love of Santa, please watch the original. The Johnny Depp version is just creepy.

5. Forrest Gump

Need some life lessons from Momma this holiday season? This movie is for you.

6. Pretty Woman

This time of year, we all need to be reminded not to judge a book by its cover.

7. Steel Magnolias

Julia Roberts is just too perfect, okay?

8. The Wizard of Oz

A scarecrow and a gingerbread man are pretty similar, right?

9. The Proposal

Sandra Bullock is the queen of feel-good movies!

10. The Breakfast Club

This is not only a feel-good movie, but a feel-good classic. Plus, we can always learn a little something from Molly Ringwald.

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.
