Why You Should All Hail Queen Latifah
TV Series Finale

For those who don't know who Queen Latifah is, this is Queen Latifah:

She is an actress, singer, rapper and all-around amazing human being who has starred numerous films such as "Hairspray," "Set It Off," "Bringing Down The House," and my personal favorite, "Taxi." She also has been on TV including, most notably: "Living Single," the TV movie "Bessie," "Empire" and Star; creator Lee Daniels' new show, "Star" features an all-star cast including Benjamin Bratt, Naomi Campbell and, of course, Queen Latifah.

Even though I haven't seen the show yet, I am so excited and happy to see Queen Latifah on screen again. She has done couple of films like "Miracles From Heaven," "Bessie," and "Ice Age 4." Queen Latifah has been one of my childhood idols along with Jackie Chan. When I saw her receiving a Lifetime Achievement Award on the Kids' Choice Awards as a kid, she made me want to smile at life because she taught me to see the bright side of things in life. So whenever I hear about Queen's new project, whether it is in music or movie, I can't wait to see her shine. Here are 10 reasons why you should bow to the Queen:

1. Her way of loving herself

2. Her music


Especially in musicals!



Or bio-films like "Bessie," which won an Emmy Award for Outstanding Television Movie and more!


3. Her movies




4. Her humor


5. Her U.N.I.T.Y


6. Her way of taking care of her mom


7. Her smile


8. Her activism


9. Her support for female rappers


10. And her being a Queen

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.
