Beauty and The Beast Is A Must See

On March 17, Disney released their live action remake of Beauty and the Beast. Emma Watson traded her wizarding wand for that infamous yellow ball gown starring as Belle and Dan Stevens portrayed the Beast. Their co-stars includes a myriad of beloved stars such as: Josh Gad, Emma Thompson, Luke Evans, Kevin Kline, Ewan McGregor, Ian McKellen, Audra McDonald, etc.

When remakes are made, many people are extremely skeptical of whether or not it will live up to the original. Despite the skepticism, there was also a ton of excitement for what was to come. Expectations were high and trust me when I say, they were met.

The cast

The cast is absolutely phenomenal. Every single person portrayed their character so well and really made you feel what they were feeling in the movie, especially Emma. There were a few parts in the movie where Emma got emotional and it truly brought tears to my eyes and I heard many sniffles throughout the movie. Excellent acting, I can't say enough about it.

The storyline

This is where the skepticism plays a big part when it comes to remakes. Will this movie follow the original story? Yes. This movie not only followed the original story extremely well but actually gave more detail to the story that the 1991 version did not. For example, we find out why they live in the town that they do, the Beast's background, and about Belle's mom. In Disney cartoon's, there is often one parent and the other is rarely spoken about. This live action expanded on some things that did not take away from the beloved original movie at all but added to it.

The visuals

The visuals were great in the film. In some movies, it feels almost too "green screeny" and it takes away from the film. But in Beauty and the Beast, it felt and looked real which only made the experience better.

According to CNNMoney, as of noon on Sunday, March 19 this movie has made $350 million worldwide in the box office. $170 million of that is in North America alone.

So if you are on the fence about whether or not you want to see Beauty and The Beast, I highly recommend that you do.

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.

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.

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.
