7 Lingering Thoughts I Had At The End Of "Avengers: Infinity War"
Gage Skidmore

After avoiding spoilers like the plague and constantly worrying about which characters were going to die, I went to the movies and finally saw "Avengers: Infinity War." I’ve been not-so-patiently waiting for the movie to come out, and now that it is finally here, I am devastated. Don’t get me wrong, it was an amazing movie, but the ending where a majority of the cast dies almost killed me as well.

Disclaimer: Spoilers Ahead.

1. Why didn't Ant-Man make an appearance throughout the entire movie?

He was mentioned only once during the course of the entire movie. It’s led to believe he is choosing not to fight crime to focus on being a family man, but in reality, Ant-Man is being used for the new wave of Marvel superheroes that are to come like Captain Marvel. He does have a movie coming up with the Wasp, so we know he has some story to be told.

2. Why did Loki’s death happen after like thirty seconds?

Loki is one of the original "bad guys" from the Marvel movies, and he was killed in the first few minutes of the movie by Thanos trying to stab him. Loki's moral compass has always been off, but he is more of an antihero than a superhero. He's been known to help the Avengers, specifically Thor, but also betray everyone for his own selfish needs.

3. Is Wakanda is doomed for good?

The Avengers, with the help of the army of Wakanda, had the biggest fight against Thanos’ army in Wakanda. The force field that surrounds was destroyed and they just lost their leader T’Challa. The future of Wakanda is unknown, but they will definitely need some help.

4. Iron Man and Nebula are stranded, so what now?

After the fight is fought and half of the population is killed, Iron Man and Nebula are left on another planet. They are the only two who survived the killings of Thanos and haven't even been introduced to each other. Iron Man needs to get back to Earth not only to get back home, but to also explain to everyone's loved ones what happened to all the Avengers. Nebula now has no sister and no one that she loves, so she is left bitterly alone in the world.

5. What is Thanos going to do now?

At the beginning of the movie, Thanos seems to be this detached monster who is motivated by his own idea that he thinks he is right, but after he had to sacrifice Gamora for the soul stone, we see that he does have emotions. Now that he has successfully killed half the population, he can sit back and watch the sunrise like he always wanted. Is he just going to do nothing now? He doesn't have any more family, and I guess he still has an army, but he's just alone now.

6. So...Rocket has no more purpose in life?

As the last Guardian of the Galaxy left, Rocket doesn’t know anyone. Plus, his best friend Groot, who he would travel the galaxy with stealing and taking what he likes, is now gone, so he has no motivation to do anything.

7. Star-Lord couldn't have just held in his emotions for five more seconds?

The most frustrating moment of the whole film was watching Spiderman take the gauntlet off Thanos' hand just to have Star-Lord punch him in the face for killing Gamora, which wakes him up from Mantis’ forced slumber. If Star-Lord would have waited five more seconds, he could have saved half the population from dying and gotten the revenge he wanted to.

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.
