Slightly varied plotlines aside, each "Pitch Perfect" movie has a few good jokes, some sappy Bella family moments, a Rebel Wilson scene that's maybe funny, and some undeniably catchy a cappella and "riff off" music. However, the "Pitch Perfect" movies really aren't any good. Entertaining, yes. Good, no. And yet, I keep going back each time a new one is released. Here are some good things I enjoyed about "Pitch Perfect 3" an arguably bad movie. (Disclaimer: this contains spoilers, so if you feel like going to see a bad movie and pick this one, don't read on).

1. DJ Khaled thought Beca's mediocre music was incredible.

All she did was sing "oh" in different ways, but it seemed pretty realistic that he would think it was great, which was good considering DJ Khaled's acting situation. (Also, why is her name spelled like that, anyway?)

2. The "pitch" and "aca" puns stuck around for a third movie.

Whether or not they're funny are up to you to judge, but at least they're consistent.

3. Evermoist.

Ruby Rose was the lead singer of a ridiculously named all-girl rock group composed of four edgy girls with rhyming names, essentially the opposite of the Bellas. What more do you need in a movie, really?

4. The "Riff Off" and the acknowledgment that the Bellas always challenge people but never win.

Because I'm an absolute sucker for the musical mashups. This movie's categories were "party songs" and "singers you didn't know are Jewish," which seem totally reasonable.

5. The Bellas competed against rappers and bands, not other a cappella groups.

The music is at least 70 percent of why I watch these movies, and this not only provided a challenge for the Bellas, but provided me with different kinds of music to listen to throughout the movie.

6. The Bellas' performance outfits.

Sparkly!

7. The girls who are still in school assumed the Bellas all had amazing jobs and lives after graduating.

The montage of disastrous events in the Bellas' lives... Relatable.

8. Aubrey's dad got to see her perform.

Aww. Predictable, but still: aww.

9. Gail and John were just as ridiculous as always.

They were suddenly makeshift filmmakers, and watching them struggle with their filming equipment was better than listening to their announcing.

10. Chloe ended up with the guy.

I just feel like she deserves some happiness, you know?

11. Hundreds of bees flew around and no one seemed to get stung.

This reassures me that if my container of bees ever shatters, everything will probably be fine.

12. The scene on the boat could have gone on longer, but it didn't.

Thank goodness that disaster eventually ended.

13. The Bellas are still pretty much squad goals.

They have their problems, but if they asked me to hang out, I'd say yes.

This is for the girls who have dealt with an emotionally, mentally, physically or verbally abusive father.

The ones who have grown up with a false lens of what love is and how relationships should be. The ones who have cried themselves to sleep wondering why he hurts you and your family so much. This is for all the girls who fall in love with broken boys that carry baggage bigger than their own, thinking it's their job to heal them because you watched your mother do the same.

Blair Waldorf Quote
"DESTINY IS FOR LOSERS. IT'S JUST A STUPID EXCUSE TO WAIT FOR THINGS TO HAPPEN INSTEAD OF MAKING THEM HAPPEN." - BLAIR WALDORF.

The world stopped in 2012 when our beloved show "Gossip Girl" ended. For six straight years, we would all tune in every Monday at 9:00 p.m. to see Upper Eastside royalty in the form of a Burberry headband clad Blair Waldorf. Blair was the big sister that we all loved to hate. How could we ever forget the epic showdowns between her and her frenemy Serena Van Der Woodsen? Or the time she banished Georgina Sparks to a Christian summer camp? How about that time when she and her girls took down Bart Bass? Blair is life. She's taught us how to dress, how to be ambitious, and most importantly, how to throw the perfect shade.

too tired to care

We've all been there. From move-in day to the first finals week in college, your first term is an adventure from start to finish. In honor of college decisions coming out recently, I want to recap some of the most common experiences college freshmen experience.

1. The awkward hellos on move-in day.

You're moving your stuff onto your floor, and you will encounter people you don't know yet in the hallway. They live on your floor, so you'll awkwardly smile and maybe introduce yourself. As you walk away, you will wonder if they will ever speak to you again, but don't worry, there's a good chance that you will make some great friends on your floor!

Recently I completed my freshman year of college, and boy, what an experience. It was a completely new learning environment and I can't believe how much I learned. In an effort to save time, here are the ten biggest lessons I learned from my first year of college.

1. Everyone is in the same boat

For me, the scariest part of starting school was that I was alone, that I wouldn't be able to make any friends and that I would stick out. Despite being told time and time again that everyone had these same feelings, it didn't really click until the first day when I saw all the other freshman looking as uneasy and uncomfortable as me. Therefore, I cannot stress this enough, everyone is feeling as nervous as you.
