5 Hopeful, Strong Oscar Contenders
Fact

The Academy has their own timeframe for a film to be released as scheduled. Some of those films get recognized by them for Oscar nominations. Its always at least between Early September to Late December. Although we do get many great films before the "Oscar Season", from superhero flicks to nail-biting horror, the Academy sometimes doesn't really recognize those films. A quick list of contenders that have a strong chance of landing that nomination in hopes of walking up that stage to hold that beautiful golden prize are the following:

1. "Coco"

This animated masterpiece is filled with so much love, heart, and beauty. You fall in love with the characters and they each prepare to take you through 20 boxes of tissues because you will be swimming in your own tears.

2. "Mother"

I can say that this film may win for best sound editing, cinematography, and director because you'll be scarred for life after the events of what Jennifer Lawrence does throughout two hours. Its just nonstop insanity for that timeframe.

3. "Call Me By Your Name"

Okay okay, take another box of tissues for this one. Some of these director's know they're doing and this film's direction is magic to one's soul and heart.

4. "The Big Sick"

Kumail Nanjiiani, is the type of guy who knows how to mix comedy and drama so perfectly. From the very beginning, you'll picture in your head how relatable his dating life is.

5. "The Disaster Artist"

Who wouldn't want a parody of the iconic movie "The Room"? We didn't even have to ask for it, we received it and James & Dave Franco delivered. Is it normal to vomit because of laughing too much?

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.
