5 Hopeful, Strong Oscar Contenders
Fact

The Academy has their own timeframe for a film to be released as scheduled. Some of those films get recognized by them for Oscar nominations. Its always at least between Early September to Late December. Although we do get many great films before the "Oscar Season", from superhero flicks to nail-biting horror, the Academy sometimes doesn't really recognize those films. A quick list of contenders that have a strong chance of landing that nomination in hopes of walking up that stage to hold that beautiful golden prize are the following:

1. "Coco"

This animated masterpiece is filled with so much love, heart, and beauty. You fall in love with the characters and they each prepare to take you through 20 boxes of tissues because you will be swimming in your own tears.

2. "Mother"

I can say that this film may win for best sound editing, cinematography, and director because you'll be scarred for life after the events of what Jennifer Lawrence does throughout two hours. Its just nonstop insanity for that timeframe.

3. "Call Me By Your Name"

Okay okay, take another box of tissues for this one. Some of these director's know they're doing and this film's direction is magic to one's soul and heart.

4. "The Big Sick"

Kumail Nanjiiani, is the type of guy who knows how to mix comedy and drama so perfectly. From the very beginning, you'll picture in your head how relatable his dating life is.

5. "The Disaster Artist"

Who wouldn't want a parody of the iconic movie "The Room"? We didn't even have to ask for it, we received it and James & Dave Franco delivered. Is it normal to vomit because of laughing too much?

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
