5 Classic Movies You Need To See Right Now
https://libreshot.com/shooting-a-movie-at-night/

I am a lover of classic films, particularly black-and-white ones. There's just something about them that reel me in. I've heard people say old films are better than newer ones but that is just a subjective opinion. Movies were good then and movies are good now. Here are some classic suggestions:

"Psycho" (1960)

Giphy

My all-time favorite movie. This film has made me enjoy horror films (even if this one isn't the most scary). I would consider it a psychological thriller that people should definitely watch.

"The Bad Seed" (1956)

Giphy

Another wonderful horror thriller movie dated back to the 1950s. I had to watch this movie for a class in high school and I'm glad I did. The actress who plays the main character did a wonderful job with her role.

"The Shining" (1980)

Giphy

I promise this is the last horror movie on this list. The classic film is set in Colorado and sees Jack Nicholson play a character trying to get over writer's block, amongst other things. Definitely a must see.

"Planet of the Apes" (1968)

Giphy

As of writing this article, I watched this film for the first time last night (which sparked my interest in this article). It was a huge feat for the time as makeup and costumes took hours to put on. This film deserves all the credit it has received.

"Mary Poppins" (1964)

Giphy

I only watched this film recently for the first time as well. This highly memorable movie set a precedent for musicals that continue to this day. Fun fact: Julie Andrews starred in "The Sound of Music" only one year after "Mary Poppins" playing a nanny in both films.

I admit that I'm not the biggest movie person but I still enjoy one from time to time. This list is a great selection to choose from to watch.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.
