Top 6 Must-See Movies Of All Time

Recently I've been talking with some friends about having a movie date and it inspired me to write about a few movies I think everyone needs to see. I'm a fan of a lot of movies so picking ten was really hard, but alas, here we go.

1. Pay It Forward

I remember watching this movie my senior year of high school. I know it's stupid to say that a movie changed you, but this one literally changed my life and the way I think about things. To this day, when I watch it I cry and think of ways I can change the world around me and make it a better place. If you were to watch any of the movies I'm about to list I would suggest this one the most. 10/10 would recommend.

2. The Game Plan

This family movie is one of the cutest movies I've ever seen. I love Dwayne Johnson's character's development. He grows as a person so much by the end of the movie. And let's be real, everyone loves The Rock.

3. Sleepover

I don't know about you, but for me Sleepover was literally sleepover goals. I wanted to go on rebellious scavenger hunts, meet the love of my life, and have the most romantic first date ever. Not to mention, Evan Peters was comedic gold in this film. You know, before he was terrifying in American Horror Story.

4. Deadpool

Deadpool is my spirit animal. He is literally the funniest "bad guy" ever. And the fact that Ryan Reynolds is the man behind the red suit makes it a million times better. I lowkey saw this twice in the theaters because I loved it so much. If you're in the mood to laugh and you can handle some crude humor this is the movie for you.

5. Lilo And Stitch

Any of the movies in this series are phenomenal, to be honest. You won't know whether you'll be crying from the cuteness or the heartbreak. Whenever I watch them I feel like a child again. If I'm upset I'll put one on and cry it out and feel better immediately.

6. Mean Girls

If you've never seen this classic I'm hardcore judging you. You have to see mean girls at least 500 times in your life, that's just like, the rules of feminism! Duh. This isn't your typical "chick flick". It's raunchy, funny, and very quoteable. I can promise you that even though this movie is 12 years old (which is so hard to believe, by the way) I still quote it on a weekly basis. Lindsay Lohan's character is so relatable and naive. Rachel McAdams is the girl everyone loves to hate. It's the perfect frenemy relationship. Also, Tina Fey and Amy Poehler are in it. That in itself would be enough to make me see it.

Well, there you have it! My list of must see movies. You have your chick flicks, animation, and drama. There are so many other movies I could suggest, but I'll leave it with these six for now.

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.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
