Why 'Harry Potter' Should Be On Netflix

An Alternate Choice to Sadness

For those of you who do not yet know, "Harry Potter" will no longer be seen on the Freeform channel (that thing that took over ABC Family).

Freeform teased our generation to get us into their channel by keeping on some of our favorites, like "Harry Potter" weekends. But starting January 1st, those delightful weekends will no longer be.

Instead "Harry Potter" was taken over by the HBO channel. Which is OK, but I doubt they will play the whole series at every holiday season or every fall when kids go back to school. (Nothing like wishing to be at Platform 9 3/4)

This is ruining the series for future generations, they will never get to appreciate the relevance of the story. Or feel the empowerment from a Hermione weekend.

However, there is a simple way to fix that. To put all eight movies on NETFLIX. Netflix has been doing well over the past few years, adding more and more recent movies as they leave theaters. But it's not fair that some other countries have this amazing series on their accounts and not the American one.

It's not that I can't watch these movies whenever I want, I have the DVDs. There's just something better about watching the extended versions. Plus the commercials always hyped me up to watch it again.

I get that all things must come to an end, but why this? Why now? Our country needs more "Harry Potter".

I will rejoice the day that Netflix finally gets their act together and listens to their people.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

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.
