Perfect Netflix Movies for a Couch Potato Day

Everyone has those days. You wake up in the blissful comfort of your warm bed, snuggled up against your favorite body pillow, your hair stuck to your cheek with the drool from a good night's sleep. Rain is pattering on the roof and the world outside looks so dreary you can't find any reason to leave the peace and quiet of your own home. So, you snuggle up under your warmest blanket and let your body mold into the couch so deeply that it becomes impossible to ever stand up. The remote is in reach. The TV screen is waiting to be stared at. So, what should you watch?


The Princess Bride

I am actually watching this movie right now, as I write this article, snuggled up under a blanket and eating potato chips. And I can promise you firsthand, it's mind meltingly perfect. I can be a total zombie while I stare at the screen, and fantasize about having my own fairy tale adventure. My heart pounds when I hear the three words every girl dreams of one day being told: "as you wish."

How To Lose a Guy in Ten Days

Yes, the whole "I'm gonna date a person for ten days just for the hell of it and not think about the consequences at all" thing is a little weird, and they fall in love like, really, really fast (in ten days), but it's still a fun watch. I mean, sometimes a predictable love story is all you need for a lazy day. And who doesn't love Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey?

Clueless

Okay guys, THIS IS MY FAVORITE MOVIE. It's incredible. Alicia Silverstone is witty, hilarious, and loveable. Paul Rudd is a smart, sexy, stud (when is he not?), the 90's-ness of this cinematic masterpiece is unmatchable, and Dion's hat collection is fire.

Big Daddy

Who doesn't love a classic Adam Sandler movie? Plus, it's starring very tiny versions of Cole and Dylan Sprouse. This movie is goofy, hilarious, and heartwarming. It will have you craving Mcdonald's breakfast, but I'm always craving those Egg Mcmuffins anyway, so it's totally worth it.

Bridget Jones's Diary

Renée Zellweger, Hugh Grant, Colin Firth, British accents, and kissing without pants on in the snow. Nuff said.

With each new year comes new goals.

Deciding on a goal can be hard, unsure of what to change for this new year. A new goal for myself is to be happier and take care of myself more. I am a very driven person; so driven that I commit to a million and ten things.

It is that time of year again. Christmastime. It is one of my favorite seasons for a myriad of reasons. Here are just a few reasons why I love Christmas. This list is in no order of importance.

1. The Christmas decorations

I am that person who will decorate directly after Thanksgiving is over. This year, my roommates and I put the tree up in our apartment before we even left for Thanksgiving break. It is a great stress reliever for me to just sit in my living room and work on the huge amount of work I have before the semester is over.
