Nominated People’s magazine’s “sexiest man alive” in 2012, Channing Tatum rocks his “sexy” in countless movies throughout his career. From minor roles to lead roles, from the romantic to the badass, Channing Tatum has conquered a variety of roles. Here are his ten best, and probably most well-known, films.

"Magic Mike"

Although the film received bad reviews for its story line, I found the movie quite enjoyable. Nothing makes a better film than a stage full of shirtless, attractive men, among the finest being Mr. Tatum. Personally, I found the story line fairly interesting, but regardless of your opinion, I am certain the movie was intended as more of an eye-pleasing performance, than an awe-inspiring film.

"21/22 Jump Street"

I found both of the "Jump Street" films equally entertaining. While the story plots are very similar, the movie environments are entirely different and they make for two great films. These films are laugh out loud funny and among the best comedies in recent years.

"She’s the Man"

This is a classic film with a unique story. This is an early film of a girl defying gender stereotypes and going to great lengths in order to play the sport she loves. This is personally one of my favorite Tatum movies because of the portrayal of gender roles.

"Step Up"

This is one of Channing Tatum’s early films and also a life changing film. Not only was this sort of his “breakout movie” but also where he met his current wife, Jenna Dewan. He continued in the second "Step Up," but is not the star of that film like he is in the first, so in my opinion, the original "Step Up" is the best.

"Dear John"

"Dear John" is another film at the top of my list. Tatum’s portrayal as John Tyree is phenomenal and heartbreaking. This film gives the world a taste of Tatum’s passionate side, which is quite different from the other films this far. He is less comical and badass in this film but is incredibly romantic.

"G.I. Joe"

"G.I. Joe" shows us the badass inside Channing Tatum. I have found that this movie is severely underrated. This is an action-packed film accompanied by great actors. Ignore the critics, if you haven’t seen this movie, I highly recommend it, especially if you are a Tatum or action movie fan.

"White House Down"

This is my absolute favorite Tatum film because it is completely badass! This film will literally keep you on the edge of your seat and has a remarkable story line. While "Olympus Has Fallen" has stolen some of its thunder, I personally prefer "White House Down."

"Coach Carter"

This classic film is another one of Tatum’s early roles. This movie features a young Channing Tatum, but unlike the rest of this list, Tatum is not the lead role, but a supporting role. This movie is super inspirational to kids and teens everywhere. This basketball film is among the best sports movies of all time.

"The Vow"

Last but not least, is the heartbreaking film "The Vow." I have a love/hate relationship with this movie. I love the passion and romance portrayed by Tatum towards his fictional wife, and I love the overall story line, but I absolutely hate the ending of this film. Maybe that is because I like happy and resolved endings and this one leaves you hanging just a bit, however, I still recommend it for romance and Tatum lovers!

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.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
