Shia LaBeouf: Actor, Artist, Genius

The year 2000 introduced the world to a new actor that would one day revolutionize what we know today as art. This man is Shia LaBeouf. Every one knows this guy as the lovable character on the show Even Stevens, Louis Stevens. Since then his acting career has spanned numerous movies.

Within recent years the actor has dipped his foot in the art world. His first art installation was a four day movie marathon. A movie theatre in New York City ran every movie the actor was ever in starting from the most recent to the oldest. The artist sat in the theatre and watched every movie through the four day period. People were allowed to come and go as they please. There was also a live stream of the actor in the theatre watching the movies. This was the first time the actor really delved deep into the artistic community.

Shia LaBeouf's newest art installation is a form of protest to the new president of the United States. Outside the Museum of the Moving Image in Queens, New York, LaBeouf has set up a camera that will be live streaming for the next four years while Donald Trump is in office. People are welcome to come to the spot, stand in front of the camera, and chant "He will not divide us." in front of the camera for the world to watch.

The live stream began January 20th as Trump was being inaugurated into office. He got the help of Jaden Smith to help get the project in motion. People have been standing in front of the camera since then chanting "He will not divide us." If you have a need to ever let your anger out at the Reality Star turned PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES then go down to the museum and chant with the crowd of people in front of the camera.

This participatory art installation from the crazy mind of the ex-disney star may be his most ambitions stunt since the time he stood in an elevator for 24 hours straight. You can watch the live stream here. Maybe if your lucky you'll catch this hero yelling at someone who doesn't understand the protest.

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.
