Top Picks For Your Next Movie Night
Gerd Altmann

So, if you know me at all, then you know that I love movies. If you want to know a good movie, just ask me, and I will probably have a pretty good suggestion. So, I'm going to do just that.

1. The Game Plan (rated PG)

I could watch this movie a million times and still be in awe of the cuteness. Easily one of the best/underrated Disney movies of all time.

2. Tangled (rated PG)

Definitely my favorite animated Disney flick ever. If Rapunzel's innocence isn't enough for you, then Zachary Levi's voice has to be. Seriously, I See The Light is my jam.

3. War Room (rated PG)

If you have never heard of the Kendrick brothers, I urge you to do so immediately. War room is their 5th movie after Courageous, Fireproof, Facing the Giants, and Flywheel, which are all great movies. But, word to the wise, keep tissues on hand-trust me.

4. God's Not Dead 1 & 2 (both rated PG)

I adore both these movies. Both are based off of situations that have happened in real life. They are both incredibly encouraging to any Christian.

5. The Maze Runner & The Scorch Trials (both rated PG-13)

I am a proud Glader. I read all three books and the prequel, and I cannot wait for the newest book that comes out this year. Granted, the movies are different from the books, but I love them anyway. WARNING: These are PG-13 movies. There is much strong language and "monster" like things in both films, so if that isn't your thing, then these movies are not for you.

6. Pride and Prejudice (2005) (rated PG)

OK, this is my cliché girl moment. I love this movie so much! It is the epitome of a chick flick without vulgar scenes or profanity. I'm not usually a period drama person, but this movie is not your typical period drama.

7. Elf (rated PG)

"I love you, I love you, I LOVE YOUUU!!!!" Sorry, I had to. Probably one of the funniest movies that I've ever seen. And super quotable. And, it's Will Ferrell dressed as elf. What more could you want?

8. Hairspray (2007) (rated PG)

If you want someone with confidence, then look no further than Tracy Turnblad. The dorkiness and catchy tunes of this movie musical make it a must see.

9. Just about any Marvel movie

Because come on, they're Marvel movies, what's not to love? I will admit that I haven't really watched any of the Iron Man movies (I know, I know), and I'm not a huge fan on Guardians of the Galaxy.

10. Any of the Taken series (all rated PG-13)

My father loves Liam Neeson, so I got the same love. What I don't get is what made them mess with Liam Neeson not once, not twice, but 3 times. Must have been slow learners. WARNING: It is Liam Neeson, so there's A LOT of violence and also some language.

11. Any of the Night at the Museum movies (all rated PG)

I'm a clean humor person, so these are three of my go to movies. It doesn't get much better than Ben Stiller, Owen Wilson, and Robin Williams all in one movie.

So, those are just a few of my suggestions for your next movie night! If you think there's any others that I should try out, comment below!

I've known you your entire life. More than likely I held you in the first three days of it and at least one of us cried. Cousins are truly one of the best things in the world and while sometimes I complain about how many people crowd Grandma's living room on Christmas Eve, I wouldn't trade you all anything.

You are my best friends, the only people who can understand what it's like on Thanksgiving, and you are the spunkiest people I have ever met. But you as so so young, most of you are just now starting your adventures in the public education system. I mean, I'm so very young too. I'm not married, I don't have children, heck, I just started my adult life, but I do want to give you what little advice I have. My dears, these are the things I want you to know.

ORHS Graduation
Kristen Sack, ORHS Graduation

You are a senior in high school, you have made it to the final year that you have been looking forward to since the first day of freshman year. Whether this has been the worst or best four years of your life, appreciate it. You will never have these times back, you will never be in high school again. It is hard for someone still in high school to wrap their brain around, but there will be a day when you wish you could be in the shoes you're in right now. Here are 15 things I have learned being in college that I wish I knew as a high school senior:

Everyone, and I mean everyone has heard of the show "One Tree Hill". Many people think that this show is the best thing they've ever watched and others won't bother watching it because they know they'll get hooked. And yes, I know many people have written about this show before, but I couldn't resist. I could re-watch every season multiple times to the point where I can almost quote an entire scene. Trust me, once you start "One Tree Hill", you will be hooked. There's way too many reasons to list as to why you'll love this show, and these are just a few.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.
