Vague On The How

I'm not sure if you're familiar with my article about reboots and how they are some of the worst films of the century, but they are and it sucks. I think what bothers me more than anything about reboots (expect a gross lack of originality) is the fact that some studio green lit a movie/show we've already seen and love, but some of our favorite shows can't seem to get more than 2 seasons before cancellation.

Think I'm exaggerating? Just ask fans who have petitioned for shows like "Reaper," "Firefly," "Ash Vs. The Evil Dead" and honestly the list goes on and on. Sometimes fans are met in the middle with a movie (i.e. "Serenity"), but oftentimes we find ourselves pining for the show that could've been. The great loves and plot lines that could only come about in season 5, once our protagonist really sees her strength and learns to love again. Or something like that. We don't write the show, just obsess about it.

Unfortunately, too many shows get the ax because of stupid ratings while fans cry quietly in unison on online forums.

Luckily for some of us, streaming Titans like Netflix and Hulu have jumped in to save the day. With renewals of canceled cable series like "The Mindy Project," "Arrested Development" and "Brooklyn Nine-Nine" these companies have addressed what we as fans have always felt; But what about us?

And now Hulu has made an announcement that will have women in their late 20's and early 30's all over screaming with joy and hardly breathing at the idea of the return of everyone's favorite bad boy, Logan Echolls. That's right folks, 2004's cult classic super-sleuth teen drama "Veronica Mars" is coming back.

If you're as big of a fan of the show and my sister and I, you likely donated to the 2013 Kickstarter for the "Veronica Mars" movie, saw it in theaters and even got the t-shirt. Now while the movie was awesome and fulfilled so many of our hopes as fans, that's really all it was, a 2-hour heaping pile of fan service.

Now, Rob Thomas, I'm not saying I'm not grateful, but I only wish the movie had felt more like an expansion of the story instead of a "how much can we pack into this film so that fans feel satisfied because odds are they will never get to see these characters in a new situation ever again?"

Well, I assume Rob understood that if he managed to successfully pitch the series' return to Hulu. I'm sure Kristen Bell's insane stardom from "Frozen" and undying love for the character that put her on the map certainly didn't hurt its chances either.

No matter how it happened or why it came to be, fans are beyond grateful and can't wait to see what everyone's favorite blonde-haired private investigator has in store.

Not familiar with "Veronica Mars?" Well, you've got time to get acquainted, as the series' new release is still TBD. Though we're betting it won't be until after Rob finishes up with "iZombie," its final season set to premiere this fall.

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.
