Tale as old as time...

The Beauty And The Beast Trailer: RELEASED
InStyle

As a little girl, I remember fondly watching Beauty and the Beast every time I went to Grandma's house, or my aunt's house, or my house... basically whenever I got the chance I watched Beauty and the Beast. Belle is my absolute favorite Disney princess of all time. She is a book nerd like me (unless college gets in the way), and in my honest opinion she is the most "human" princess that is encountered throughout Disney.

What makes Beauty and the Beast a magical fairy tale is fairly simple: the Beast. He is very enclosed in himself, but he really has a genuine heart.

I'm not going to go into too much detail about the plot because it's Disney... everyone knows Disney. If not, then you'll find out about Beauty and the Beast on March 17, 2017! The producers of this modernized fairy tale released their first trailer just three days ago, and I'm going to be honest.. I fell in love more than I already am in with the tale as old as time.

Emma Watson humanizes the beauty, grace, and sacrifice of animated Belle. She dances like a princess, delivers lines with ease (and with an accent #inlove), and argued that Belle should be more "practical." For example, Watson noticed that Belle in the animation wears flats to walk around town, work with her father, and ride a horse. She stated that a horseback rider would NEVER wear flats, so she modernized and made Belle more realistic by wearing sturdy boots.

The Beast (Dan Stevens), is unrecognizable as a human. His costume is so realistic that I got a little jittery when he fights the wolves for the love of his life, Belle. The power that Steven possesses brings the whole concept of the Disney animation together.

Now, what about the comrades: Lumiere, Mrs. Potts, Chip, and Cogsworth? They are still the same tiny tots, and voiced over, but they are more antique-looking. For example, Lumiere is this worn golden color and his face is on the metal candle holder versus the wax candle itself.

Knowing my personality, I have to go into the music of the new movie. Like everything else: I AM SO EXCITED! The altered the music to modernize it, but kept the original themes embedded in there. The song "Beauty and the Beast" moved me to tears as the background of the trailer, giving me goose bumps in admiration. I could harp on this music forever, and I am looking forward to the entire soundtrack to be released.

I believe all the Belle fanatics that are in love with the Beauty and the Beast concept will absolutely fall in love with the modernized rendition of this classic. Of course we will have commentary on the outlandish differences that will be outright weird. However, I think we will embrace the humanized version of the animation. Beauty and the Beast will be released in theaters on March 17, 2017, and I will be first in line.

Open up your menu, try the grey stuff (it's delicious), and be our guest at the theaters. See you there!

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.
