12 Movies To Look Forward To In 2016

As 2015 comes to a close, we look forward into 2016. With the fandom-packed lineup the incoming year holds, we can expect that theaters will be even fuller in 2016. Between comic book films, animated, and a new "Harry Potter"-franchise film coming soon, get ready to empty your pockets for some theater tickets!

1. "Batman vs. Superman"

(Yes, that GIF is from "Holy Musical Batman!" by Starkid.) But seriously, Batman andSuperman in the same movie? It's going to be epic!

2. "Deadpool"

For the Marvel Comics fandom, the Deadpool movie has been delayed for way too long. It's about time they make a movie for this comic book character -- and they have!

3. "Zoolander 2"

Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson are back at it with this upcoming sequel. But will it flop like other sequels have, or will it come out on top? I'm not sure just yet, but here's hoping.

4. "The Boy"

For the thriller-loving, "The Boy" will most likely be one of the creepiest movies of the year. A life-size doll that may actually be alive? Super freaky indeed. If I were into horror films, I would definitely want to check this out.

5. "Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them"

J.K. Rowling's Wizarding World lives on in this spin-off of her popular series, "Harry Potter." Set in America, it will be interesting to see what American wizards were up to before Harry Potter's time. As a "Harry Potter" fan, I cannot contain my nerdgasm!

6. "Ghostbusters"

Leslie Jones, Melissa McCarthy, Kate McKinnon, and Kristen Wiig have been announced as the four leading ladies of this upcoming film. Not much has been released about it, but oh boy, am I excited! How could this not be hilarious?

7. "Angry Birds Movie"

"Angry Birds" originally was a popular mobile game that sling-shot into our hearts. Now they're making a movie about the birds. Can you not agree that the little fluffy birds look so adorable? I will be watching this movie just because of all the cute creatures!

8. "The Secret Life of Pets"

Have you ever wondered what your pets do when you're not home? This film seems to give house pets a comedic side, appealing to both kids and adults. Will it be the new "Minions" franchise? I don't think so, but I have high expectations this film will be fun!

9. "Zootopia

A film about animals that dress up in clothing and act more humanlike. The digital animation for this family-friendly film looks great, and will surely be one of the films I go see in theaters.

10. "Moana"

I'm glad Disney is finally putting more people of color in their films! While the ratio between white role models and POC role models in Disney films is still slanted, it's an improvement! I am so excited to see this movie about a new "princess," and hopefully it will have some great feminist storylines.

11. "Finding Dory"

"Finding Nemo" came into my life when I was 8 years old, and I have never stopped loving the Pixar film. I love Ellen DeGeneres and I am so excited that Dory will have her own film this coming year!

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

There have been many lessons learned.

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.
