60 Thoughts I Had While Watching 'IT'
Warner Bros. Pictures


Back in September, I had the opportunity to attend a screening of the IT movie. I am a huge fan of horror movies and I knew that this one was going to be pretty awesome. My friends and I sat high in the theatre and in the center part of the row so that we could have a nice view of the movie. While watching the movie, I had so many thoughts going through my head. I was thinking WTF for most of the movie, but who wasn’t saying that when we were watching an evil clown try to eat children? Anyways, here are some thoughts I had while watching the new IT movie. By the way, spoilers.


1. The movie just started and there is already a balloon? Great.

2. Georgie, it’s raining. Stay inside and take care of Bill. He’s sick! Help the poor guy out.

3. Why is the mother playing that song?! Geez, I already have goosebumps and it hasn’t even been five minutes.

4. Get out of the basement, Georgie. Get out of the basement.

5. Georgie is having fun in the rain, even though he’s about to die.

6. Your boat is gone! Get away from the sewer! Do it!

7. And there’s the man of the hour: Pennywise the Clown.

8. OK, Pennywise is nice right now, but run, Georgie. Just go back home and read a good book.

9. I can’t smell the circus. All I smell is this woman’s Buffalo Wild Wings next to me. (No joke. It smelled really good.)

10. I swear to the — Don’t take the boat!

11. Great, he just bit his arm off.

12. Why am I already stressed? That was just the opening scene?! I’m doomed.

13. Oh, a cute flock of sheep!

14. Please, don’t kill the sheep. Please don’t —

15. Whelp, the sheep is dead.

16. Why does this feel like "Stranger Things"?

17. One of the mean kids just said, "you're trash," and I feel like they're talking to me because I relate to that.

18. "Try tickling your prick for the first time."... Ummm, no?

19. I was confused about why these kids are dropping the f-word so much, but then I remember it’s a horror movie.

20. Word of advice: If you interact with a teenager with a mullet who licks his hand and rubs it all over your face, don’t trust him.

21. I feel like this movie is about the struggles of growing up, and being a child, and having no one listen to you. When did I become smart?

22. All of my friends just jumped at Pennywise and I’m still sitting here like: “Good job. You got them.”

23. That kid has no head!? Don’t stare! Run!

24. Pennywise said, “Egg Boy,” and I couldn’t help, but chuckle a little bit.

25. Parents are awful in this film.

26. If that painting falls, I’m done.

27. It did. For the love of — Oh, jumpscare!

28. I can’t trust balloons again, especially red ones.

29. Here’s a pro tip for everyone: If all the kids in your town start to go missing, you should MOVE!

30. The New Kids on the Block have been referenced so much in this movie, and I’m OK with it.

31. Beverly, your dad is a creep. Please kick his ass later.

32. The sink is talking. I repeat: the sink is talking.

33. DON’T TALK TO THE SINK! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!

34. It’s pulling you down! Scream! Get your dad’s attention! I don’t trust the guy, but scream!

35. That’s a lot of blood. Wow.

36. My friend just said, “That’s me on my period.” Now, I can’t look at that scene the same way again...

37. Do not go in the basement! Are kidding me?

38. Bill, no. Georgie is dead. Get out of the basement!

39. Can I just say, Bill Skarsgard is a genius.

40. Awww, family photos. That’s adorable.

41. I see Pennywise! I see him! I see him!

42. That jumpscare just now made the entire theatre jump. It was so loud and perfect. Good job, Skarsgard. I applaud you.

43. There is a haunted house in this movie, and the town is OK with it? I can’t.

44. Do not go into that house.

45. Do not go into that house!

46. Do NOT go into that house!!

47. They went in the house.

48. I get it that they have to save Beverly, but don’t go in the well.

49. They went into the well. Dear lord.

50. Somebody just screamed, “Where are their parents?” And I’m just sitting here nodding my head.

51. Pennywise is dancing. That’s going to be a meme. I’m calling it now.

52. “None of us are safe.” Yeah, because of the CLOWN!

53. My friend is digging her nails into my arm right now, and I want to tell her to get off, but I’m sure her anxiety is through the roof right now, just like me and the rest of our friends.

54. Floating dead children. Lovely. Wait — "you’ll float, too." *gasps*

55. Bill, that’s not Georgie.

56. Why am I tearing up? Why? Just why?

57. Kick Pennywise’s butt! Do it! Don't hold anything back!

58. Pretty sure that’s not the correct way to do a blood pact. Especially with a random piece of glass you found on the ground.

59. Bill and Beverly just kissed. Honestly, goals.

60. There’s a sequel?! My prayers have been answered.

Honestly, this was me when the movie ended:

IT is now my favorite movie of all time and I am not ashamed. Bill Skarsgard was a genius as Pennywise and I can’t wait for the sequel. Just remember, stay away from the sewers and if you see a balloon, get out quickly.

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.
