7 Movies and TV Shows To Look Forward To In 2017

We can all agree that 2016 was not the best year for anybody. 2016 was by far one of the worst years because many legends died, like Carrie Fisher and David Bowie, and many unexpected or unfavorable events happened, like Brexit and Trump being elected. Now any of these things happening is upsetting but all of these things happening in the same year or even same month is just devastating. So to turn to happier things, in honor of this new year, let's review some movies and tv shows to look forward to in the upcoming year!

1. "Stranger Things" Season 2

There are so many questions that we have after this show came out. I personally love this show so much and I am so excited for the new season coming out sometime this year.

2. "A Series of Unfortunate Events" on Netflix

Years after the completion of this not so innocent children's book, it is premiering as a show on Netflix on the new year's first Friday the 13th.

3. "Game of Thrones" Season 7

Winter has come, but who knows what's in store for this coming season. All I know is that I'm excited.

4. "Guardians of the Galaxy" Vol. 2

After the successful hit of Guardians of the Galaxy, Starlord and his team are coming back for volume two on May 5, 2017.

5. "Lego Batman"

One of the favorite characters in the Lego Movie in 2014 was the incredibly voiced Batman. This year, he is coming back in his own movie on February 10, 2017.

6. "Logan"

Coming out on March 3rd, Logan is another movie in the X-Men universe. In this movie, Logan and Professor X have to protect a female clone of Wolverine. This movie is based off of the comic of the same name.

7. New "Beauty and the Beast"

Also coming out in March, the new live-action Beauty and the Beast movie is expected to be a huge success. As a Disney fan, I know I'll be going to see it the opening weekend.

An added bonus of things to look forward to in 2017 is that 2016 is finally over. Happy New Year, everybody!

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.

Top 20 Thoughts College Students Have During Finals

University of Vermont

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
