My Top 5 Movies Of Summer '18

I´m not really a movie buff. I don´t have the patience to watch movies if I´m being honest. But, these are five movies that I thoroughly enjoyed and are rated well by other viewers.

1. "Incredibles 2"

If you haven't already seen this movie, I suggest you do. I saw this recently and honestly, I waited far too long. This movie is possibly the best movie I have ever watched. It did not disappoint AT ALL. I can say that it exceeded my expectations. I didn't think it could top the first movie, but I was proven wrong. I left the movie theater completely satisfied and content with my experience. It was worth the fourteen-year wait.

2. "Hereditary"

I expected hauntings and got slapped with something entirely different. It had some very gory and unexpected turns. I didn't think it was as scary as people assumed it was. When watching this movie, be sure to pay attention to the small details because that is really what allows you to truly understand it.

3. "Life of the Party"

It wasn't the best-rated movie on Rotten Tomatoes, (my boyfriend thinks that a good rating is imperative for it to be considered great) but I thought it was a very cute movie. Maybe it wasn't the most thrilling or well thought out movie, but it had some lessons to be learned. It was very funny and entertaining. If you're looking for a lighthearted and quirky movie to watch, this would be it.

4. "Ant-Man and the Wasp"

"Ant-Man and the Wasp" was a huge turn from the devastating ending of Infinity War. No spoilers will be provided, but let's just say that the mood has changed. "Ant-Man and the Wasp" made us have hope in the MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe) again with its witty, playful, and hilarious writing. It was a huge improvement from the first film and with another addition to the team, it looks like the Avengers have even more help with the next big threat to come...or perhaps it never went away.

5. "Deadpool 2"

Deadpool was a success from the beginning and there was a lot of high expectations when it came to this one. I don´t think it was better than the first, but it did help that they had a bigger budget. They were able to do more and meet the expectations that MCU fans had for the movie. I'd recommend seeing this movie in theaters for sure.

I'll never forget the day that someone told me these words: "Madison, I think you're a good friend to everyone but yourself." I stood there completely in awe of that statement. Before that day, I never really thought about being a friend to myself, and at the time, I didn't really know what it meant. Now, I realize that you can't fully be there for other people unless you're there for yourself, too. You can't show up for others until you're willing to show up for yourself.

Here are five things everyone should learn in order to be a better friend to themselves. These steps are hard, but they're so worth it.

It happens to all of us, the weeks between Thanksgiving and Christmas the catch up with you.

Thanksgiving Break is most likely everyone’s favorite break during the fall semester. You get to go home and reminisce with all your high school friends. That diet you’ve been on for the past month goes out the window, and you get to eat until you put yourself into a food coma. There’s no rush on homework and you can just lie in bed and Netflix to your heart’s content. To me that sounds like an ideally wonderful break, and totally stress-free.
