10 Must-Watch Pre-2010 Movies
20th Century Fox

When Harry Met Sally (1989)

The ultimate romantic comedy.

Little Miss Sunshine (2006)

Both quirky and moving, this beautifully directed movie about a young girl and her family heading cross-country in their van for her beauty pageant is a great feel-good flick.

The Virgin Suicides (1999)

Filmmaker Sofia Coppola pays astounding attention to detail, making this mysterious story about five teenage sisters who commit suicide all the more haunting.

Pulp Fiction (1994)

A must-see if you haven’t yet. This gory and dramatic movie follows the interwoven lives of multiple characters. Quentin Tarantino at his best.

500 Days of Summer (2009)

The ultimate anti-romantic-comedy. From the start, the audience is told that the main characters’ relationship is doomed, but the nonlinear format only compels you to keep watching its demise.

American Beauty (1999)

Kevin Spacey’s performance as unhappy suburban dad Lester Burnham is equally as convincing as Frank Underwood in “House of Cards.” Relatable and at time psychedelic, this movie will definitely make you think.

Lost in Translation (2003)

Again, Sofia Coppola’s filmmaking is breathtaking. The ambiguous relationship between the two American protagonists living and working in Tokyo creates an ongoing dichotomy of both intense closeness and alienation.

Almost Famous (2000)

A charming and intriguing look into life on the road with a 1970’s rock band. The music and art direction are an added bonus.

Magnolia (1999)

Another multi-protagonist film with interwoven narratives that focuses on the feeling of loneliness.

Juno (2007)

Ellen Page is brilliant as the lax, loudmouthed teenager who finds herself pregnant and decides to put the baby up for adoption. An imperfect and touching film throughout.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
