I'm incredibly excited to see what 2019 brings, so I wrote a list of what is to come. Read below and find out what you should be looking for!

Reboots!

"Pet Sematary," "Dumbo," "The Lion King," "Jacob's Ladder," "Men In Black," "The Addams Family" and more will be remade in the new year.

A museum of the Statue of Liberty

In the museum, you go from room to room, learning how the statue was made. You'll almost feel as if you are in the sculptor's warehouse.

The ending of "Game of Thrones"

The last season of "Game of Thrones" will air this coming year. It had an incredible run, and this will no doubt be the best season yet.

Lets just say it's going to be a big year for Disney (Both Disney theme parks including more Star Wars, movies)

Disney is doing an incredible job. "Star Wars" is being incorporated into the theme parks, and movie after movie is being released. A few movies too that they are releasing are "The Lion King", "Dumbo", "Aladdin", "Avengers: End Game", etc.

It's a huge year for movies

The thing I'm most excited about are the movies being released this year. Some I'm most excited for include "Glass", "Hellboy," "Star Wars," "Frozen 2," "Pokemon," etc.

And books!

New and amazing books come out every year, but a certain few in 2019 include "The WInter of the Witch" by Katherine Arden, "The Road Beyond Ruin" by Gemma Liviero, "We Hope for Better Things" by Erin Bartels, etc.

Mahatma Gandhi turns 150

An incredible activist will be turning 150 on October 2nd!

We'll have 5 eclipses!

Five eclipses will grace us this year in parts of Argentina, Chile, South Pacific, South Asia, and the Arabian Peninsula!

An asteroid will hopefully miss Earth

There are suspicions that an Asteroid could hit Earth on February 1st, but it is very unlikely.

 The loss of certain species

In 2018 we lost a lot of amazing species to deforestation and hunting, like the last male northern white rhino. Species will only continue to decrease in the coming years.

 3D Printing

3D printing is coming to the medical field in amazing ways. Not only is it a fun little (expensive) project on the side, it's going to become something everyone will be talking about. It'll help with building medical tools, but 3D printers will also be sold to average everyday people.

 A royal baby

After sadly facing some ridicule and judgment from the media, there is finally great news! Meghan and Harry are expecting a baby sometime in the spring.

 Milestones

This year we can expect to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 mission.

Every year comes new and crazy experiences, and this year seems like it's going to be even crazier than the last. Enjoy 2019 and make it the best year yet!

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.
