Emma Watson sings "Something There"

Disney released the latest teaser trailer for the live-action "Beauty and the Beast"and fans finally hear Emma Watson sing.

From the moment it was announced that Emma Watson would be playing Belle, the question of "But can she sing?" was frequently asked and we finally have our answer. In a video that Disney has released, Emma Watson sings "Something There" (http://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2016/12/emma-watson-sings-belle-beauty-and-the-beast-something-there) and while her voice isn't one of a stereotypical Disney Princess, her voice is clear and she seems to hit the notes with ease (personally, I would like to hear her perform it live). The new Beauty and the Beast is going to be darker than the original Disney fairytale we're all used to. Certain plot holes are going to be filled in (like the Beast not aging even though it's 10 years later) and Belle is going to be a more feminist character and she is going to be the inventor of the family, not her father. With this twist, the town will have a reason to think she's odd unlike the original reason of "she reads." Disney has been making strides with their latest movies to include diversity and make a female character's story more diverse than "he loves me, he loves me not." With this latest incarnation of Belle the inventor, it will show millions of girls that they don't have to be the oddball who reads but the strong inventor who is a little quirky but understandably so. The movie will premier March 17 with a star studded cast including Ewan McGregor and Emma Thompson. (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2771200/fullcredits/)

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.
