I love the Oscars. It always amazes me to see all of those outstanding stars get awarded for their hard work. This last Sunday was the 91st Oscars ever and it was fabulous. Not only was it the first time in years that the Oscars didn't have a host, but they also had so many deserving stars to choose from for each category. If you had to miss this year's Academy Awards, here are the 23 highlights that you need to know about.

1. Queen sang "We Are The Champions" and "We Will Rock You" 

Watching all of the stars sing "We Are The Champions" and "We Will Rock You" was truly the best way to open up the show.

2. Maya Rudolph, Tina Fey, and Amy Poehler's were the opening speech 

In case you were confused they weren't the hosts, they were just on stage A LOT.

3. Jennifer Lopez looked stunning, per usual 

She truly was glowing, wow.

4. Regina King won her very first Oscar award for Best Actress in a Supporting Role

As she said in her acceptance speech, God is extremely great and you can do anything through Him.

5. Jennifer Hudson gave an outstanding performance

How did she sing those notes so HIGH?

6. Melissa McCarthy and Brian Tyree Henry's outfits were HILARIOUS

They should've won an Oscar just for their outfits.

7. "Black Panther" won Best Production Design AND Best Costume Design AND Original Score

"Black Panther" killed it tonight and so did its crew!

8. "Bohemian Rhapsody" won the Oscar for Sound Editing AND Sound Mixing AND Film Editing

What a night it was for the cast and crew of "Bohemian Rhapsody!"

9. "Roma" won Foreign Language Film AND Best Cinematography AND Best Directing

The foreign film has made quite an impact.

10. Keegan Michael Key's entrance to introducing Bette Midler  

The best entrance of the night, hands down.

11. Mahershala Ali won his second Oscar ever for Actor in a Supporting Role

He is amazing and is definitely worthy of his TWO Oscars.

12. "Spider-Man: Into The Spider Universe" won Best Animated Feature

Another amazing "Spider-man" movie in the books.

13. Gillian Welch and David Rawlings sung "When A Cowboy Trades His Spurs For Wings"

The Oscar nominated song was sung beautifully by Gillian and David.

14. Awkwafina and John Mulaney's first time at the Oscars and they got to present TWO awards

They were hilarious and told horrible jokes, but they were so funny.

15. The Netflix original "Period. End of Sentence" won Best Documentary Short Subject

"A period should end a sentence, not a girl's education."

16. Paul Rudd showed up to present the Visual Effects Award

He should win an Oscar for looking the same as he did 20 YEARS AGO.

17. Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper performed "Shallow" live for the first time EVER

I was SPEECHLESS.

18. "The BlacKkKlansman" won Best Adapted Screenplay

Their speech about Black History month was absolutely AMAZING.

19. Michael B Jordan presented Best Original Score to his very own "Black Panther"

That makes 3 for 3.

20. Lady Gaga won Best Original Song with her song "Shallow"

Too bad Bradley Cooper didn't follow her on stage this time.

21. Rami Malek won Best Actor In A Leading Role

His first Oscar was much deserved!

22. Olivia Coleman won Best Actress In A Leading Role

One of the most moving speeches of the night.

23. "Green Book" won Best Picture AND Best Original Screenplay

The love and respect poured into this film was more than worthy of the Oscars they won.

Overall, the 2019 Oscars were a success. Now, who's ready for the 2020 Oscars?

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

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.
