Movie Review: Nerve
Torch Entertainment Guide

"Nerve" is a movie that came out a couple months ago that received much recognition and popularity. Many girls' favorite actor, Dave Franco, stars with actress Emma Roberts.

The main story line goes like this: there is a dare game online, called Nerve, where individuals can either choose to be a watcher or a player. Players are given dares by the watchers, in which they receive prize money if they successfully complete the dares. However, there is one catch. Nerve is a dangerous and risky game that is hidden from the police. The rules are if you snitch, fail or back out from the dare, then you are out. The main character, Vee (Emma Roberts), joins the game and finds herself a game partner, Ian (Dave Franco). The two work together to complete the dares that the watchers give them. Vee becomes obsessed with playing Nerve, but realizes that it is a mistake when she finds herself getting caught up with bank and security issues.

The movie itself is somewhat hectic in a way, but definitely intrigues the audience because of the "action" involved. I personally loved the movie and even went to the theaters to watch it for the second time. I rate this movie a 10/10: the fact that Dave Franco is one of the main characters played a big part in my rating!

Now, there's only one question... are you a watcher or a player?

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.
