Ten Shows/Movies that Will Instantly Cheer You Up
Local Love

1. Friends

What more could you ask for than a comedic interpretation of reality? This show is literally my go-to when I need to be cheered up or when I just need to not think.

2. Mamma Mia

Since I've been at college, I've watched this movie about 15 times. It has a great soundtrack, an easy to follow story line and the perfect balance of humor and romance.

3. Hairspray

Along with #2, this is a top hit among my friends. Again, it has one of the best soundtracks and takes a run of the mill plot and makes it incredibly engaging and inclusive.

4. The Office

Need a break from your painfully awkward life? Check out this painfully awkward, but hilarious sitcom.


5. That 70's Show

So simple. We throw this on in the background of homework dates to have some good laughs and easy to follow TV.

6. White Chicks

If you haven't already seen this, stop reading this article and go to Netflix. This is absolutely guaranteed to make you laugh no matter what sense of humor you have.

7. Princess & the Frog or any Disney really

Disney movies are just a beautiful way to remind you of a simpler time when you didn't have crippling debt and a pile of homework larger than the Eiffel Tower. Plus, I'm sure you're noticing a music theme here, and Disney movies have some amazing soundtracks.

8. Sisters

Not everyone loves this movie as much as my best friend and I. If you like slapstick humor and the occasional raunchy joke, this one is for you.

9. 13 Going on 30

I'm not typically big on rom-coms that are super focused on the rom part and that aren't a musical, but this movie is a classic. It has a good message with relatable humor filtered in.

10. My Big Fat Greek Wedding

This movie will make anyone laugh because the family dynamics are something we have all lived through.

40 Gift Ideas for the Indecisive

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

Bucket List To Live In The Now

Find excitement in your life and start exploring wherever you are right here, right now.

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.

The winters at Kent are brutal, and while the heated sidewalks and some great snow boots are always a help, there’s no chance you won’t bust it on the ice at least once in your four plus years at school.
