Top 20 Bollywood Films From My Childhood

EveryPiexel

Bollywood... one of my favorite things is sitting for 3 hours and watching one. They have made me realize that love is insane and people actually don't sing and dance in the middle of the streets in Mumbai. But that's beside the point, Bollywood films are different so, If you haven't watched a Bollywood film yet, what are you waiting for? (Note this list is not any particular order)

1. Kal ho na ho (2003)

WARNING: You will ugly cry

2. Lagaan (2001)

This movie will teach about the British rule in India, cricket and how good Aamir Khan looks young.

3. 3 idiots (2009)

All iz well!

4. Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (1995)

If this movie doesn't surpass your expectations for romance I don't know what will

5. Sholay (1975)

This movie has everything you need, comedy, romance, action and Amitabh Bachchan

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.
