7 Movies to Watch During Finals
John Dierk

Finals week is upon us. Many college students are pulling all-nighters and producing paper after paper. I get it. Finals week brings out the worst in us, and while most of us are having stressed induced insomnia, we need a few things to wind down. Here are seven movies to watch to make finals week a little easier.

1. Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs.

It is SUCH a cute movie that tells every boy and girl not to hide their nerdy side.

2. Legally Blonde

This is SUCH a girl power movie. After Warren basically dumps Elle for the Harvard dream, she works her butt off to show him up without losing her femininity and ends up finding a hot, smart, and compassionate guy all the while kicking butt in the courtroom.

3. The Road to El Dorado

Such a fun movie that literally is any two best friends. Ever.

4. Hairspray

An easy to love musical that you can't help but sing along to.

5. High School Musical

Cause seriously, who didn't grow up with this Disney Classic?

6. Captain America: The Winter Soldier


Amazing superhero, tons of action, and Bucky Barnes. What could be better?

7. Pitch Perfect / Pitch Perfect 2

Okay, these two are so good to wind down on. Two easy movies to laugh with.


So go, my young ones. Rest your brain.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

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.
