I am pretty sure you all have watched Netflix's hit rom-com "To All The Boys I've Loved Before," starring the precious Lana Condor and the smashing Noah Centineo. When my friends and I heard that on September 7 "Sierra Burgess is a Loser" would be coming out on Netflix, I was skeptical. Yes, it had Noah Centineo in it and yes, it was a rom-com, but the trailer looked unappetizing. Part of me had hope there would be redeeming factors in this movie, and the other part of me just wanted to watch it and see how terrible it would end up being. Well, after wasting about 100 minutes of my life, I can conclude that Sierra Burgess is the worst movie character to walk the planet and here's why.

Sierra Burgess uses her appearance as an excuse to why people don't like her.

Listen up Sierra. Nobody likes you because of your low self-confidence, your pessimistic look on life, and your poor life choices. She isn't even that ugly, honestly. Grow up Sierra.

She manipulates Jamie's feelings and uses her "poor looks" as an excuse.

She had the NERVE to manipulate precious Jamie into thinking she was someone else. That is so morally wrong on so many levels. And her rational behind it? "I am so ugly so I HAVE to lie to him." Ugh this movie made me hate her on so many levels.

She literally commits sexual harassment.

Can we talk about how Veronica and Sierra literally tricked Jamie into kissing Sierra without his consent??? This was extremely underplayed in the movie, and it's high key sexual harassment. And what's worse is that Jamie forgave her on the dime at the end. Like no???

Sierra is so absorbed in her own life and pushes all of her friends away because woe is me.

World's tiniest violin

99.99% of the movie was Sierra complaining about how ugly and terrible her life is, and she simultaneously pushed away her friends with her negative attitude. I hate how the friends who tried their best to help her and care for her ended up getting the short stick. Stop it Sierra.

She let the whole catfish thing go on for way longer than it should.

If she would've told Jamie in the beginning who she really was, she wouldn't have created a big drama mess that would keep her up until 3 a.m. in the morning through haunting flashbacks for 5 years. Honestly.

Sierra pulls Veronica's feelings into the cat fishing game and gets her whole life tangled in this mess.

Yes, Veronica was mean at first, but then she became friends with Sierra and was less of a terrible person. But Sierra decides to drag Veronica into this mess and get her feelings entangled with Jamie. I hated how Sierra got mad at Veronica for kissing Jamie. Like hello, you want them to pretend their dating??? What did you expect them to do? Gotta keep the realism in there.

She pushes Dan away. Dan is precious and should've been the star of this movie tbh.

Dan is precious and needs to be protected at all cost

Okay so first of all, Dan deserved a better role than the stereotypical gay black best friend. Second of all, he is the most precious human being in this movie, and I need a spin off asap. His movie would be 100000x better than Sierra's (but honestly that isn't hard to beat). In addition to his sweet precious sass, his outfits are killer, and he is the only one in the Milky Way galaxy who can pull off that leopard printed jacket. Tldr; Save Dan 2k18.

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.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

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.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
