A parody of "The Room" is exactly what we deserved.

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?

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

College is an endless cycle of crappy, sleepless nights, tedious, boring lectures, and hours of never-ending piles of homework.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
