Why 'Fantastic Beasts' Is A Must-See

A couple of reasons why the new Harry Potter movie is just amazing.

On a cold Thursday night, walking back from the movie theater (because yes, one of the buses we were supposed to catch just didn't show up), I felt like when I was seven years old.

The reason? The new Harry Potter movie.

Hands down one of the best night this quarter, with the girls from my floor we were so ready for the movie.

And it didn't let me down: no matter the anxiety and uncertainty it was just extraordinary.

My main fear was that David Yates was directing it (and we all know some "What have you just done" moments in the last couple of HP movies that just were not in the book) and also that it may not be as good as Harry Potter himself.

I mean, we have never actually heard that much about Newt Scamander.

However, it left me breathless.

So, a couple of reasons why you should run to the movie theater if you haven't done so already:

1. Eddie Redmayne is just extraordinary.

I literally stared at the screen in awe. My personal opinion? He would make an excellent Doctor in "Doctor Who" (fandoms colliding).

2. The setting is just great.

New York City in the '20s.

3. The storyline about Jacob, a simple "Muggle" that ends up in the world of magic.

4. All the super cute fantastic beasts and the special effects used that are just marveling.

5. The HUGE plot twist at the end.

Which I'm not telling you, of course.


Mischief managed.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
