As someone who loves watching movies, I have list of favorites that get me into that summer feel. You know the one where the sun is just setting around 7 PM, you just got in from swimming, you're all toasty from the sun, and your mom is cooking in the kitchen? Yup, that feel. These films are on the top of my summer watch list.

1. Georgia Rule

Georgia Rule is a film starring Lindsay Lohan who plays a troubled teen who is sent to live with her grandmother in a small town in Idaho. She is holding a secret that is haunting her and causing turmoil between her and her mom (Felicity Huffman). Released in 2007, this comedic drama is one that will stand the test of time for me. It also stars Jane Fonda, who I love as an actress!

2. (500) Days of Summer

This film, released in 2009 and starring Zooey Deschanel and the handsome Joseph-Gordon Levitt, has the perfect title for the movies we are talking about, am I right? This Rom-Com is an awesome, offbeat, kind of indie film about a girl who doesn't believe in love and the guy that falls for her. This one will pull at your heart strings, but also offers an interesting perspective if you're willing to read between the lines.

3. Everything Everything

Everything Everything is an awesome film about a girl with an illness that keeps her trapped within the walls of her house, until a new boy moves in next door. I love Amandla Stenberg, who plays Maddy, in the this romantic drama. Not to mention, the music in this movie is amazing; it was like they pulled a few from my Spotify. ;)

4. 50 First Dates

This classic Romantic Comedy, released in 2004, is a classic Adam Sandler movie. He plays Henry Roth, who is afraid of commitment until he meets Lucy (Drew Barrymore) who he soon finds out has short-term memory loss. This film is sure to make you laugh and smile. Plus, everyone HAS to see this movie at least once in their lives!

5. Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest

This is my favorite POC movie! Although they're all good, this one is always on my watch list. You can even find it on Netflix, along with the newest one: Dead Men Tell No Tales. This one adds some action to your lazy summer afternoon.

As you can see I am a huge romantic movie fan. I didn't really realize this about myself until writing this "listicle", LOL. Snuggle up on the couch after a nice swim, and enjoy these films that let you revel in the sweetness that is summer.

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.
