To say I love movies would be an understatement. Since I was a kid, my dad would take my brothers and me to the movies at least once a month. During the summer, we'd go at least once a week.

Even now, when I have breaks coming up for school, my dad will call in advance and ask me which movies I want to see so we can see them together.

We have a closet full of DVDs and Blu-rays and boxes full of VHS' in the garage. My life has basically revolved around movies. And honestly, my favorite movies are bad movies.

Without further ado, here are some movies that are so bad they're good.

1. Tremors (1990)

Hands down my all time favorite movie! First of all, it has Kevin Bacon and Reba McEntire. Second of all, it's about giant monster worms that come out of the ground and eat people. It's so ridiculous and that's the point! It's a B movie that knows it's a B movie but still tries so damn hard. A nice nod toward 50s creature flicks. Do yourself a favor and watch it. (Also, there are about 4 more of these movies each one more ridiculous than the last.)

2. Vanishing on 7th Street (2010)

Literally, any movie that mentions Croatoan gets an A from me. I particularly like this one though because it is so messed up how some of the people end up disappearing. It's definitely a cheesy scary movie and the plot leaves quite a bit to be desired but it's quite a ride. The little girl at the end is my hero, though, even if it doesn't really make sense for her to have survived so long.

3. Deep Blue Sea (1999)


LL Cool J fights genetically modified sharks and I'm honestly laughing as I type this sentence. Not to mention, Samuel L Jackson yelling at said sharks. That's really all you have to know about this movie fully appreciate how bad it is.

4. You Got Served (2004)

This one is actually not supposed to be a scary movie! It's a dance movie from the early 2000's full of terrible one-liners and hairstyles. But some pretty decent dance moves? Well, at least they're better than the characters.

5. Doom (2005)

Did you know that the super iconic first-person shooter game which first came out in 1993 was adapted into a film featuring The Rock and Karl Urban? No? You do now. It's a beautifully cheesy movie with lots of gore and demon killing. Also, a pretty decent scene shot from first-person that manages to recreate the feel of playing a video game. Definitely, a must if only to reminisce about the time when The Rock still had some hair.


Look, none of these movies are what you would call cinematic masterpieces, but they are entertaining as hell. So grab some friends and some popcorn and watch some truly bad movies.

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.
