By now you should have heard of a film titled "Call Me by Your Name" which is based on the novel by André Aciman which was published in January 2008. The movie was released around the United States later last year in 2017 to select theatres in New York and Los Angeles so when this January the movie was finally released in major theatres all over the country I naturally had to go and see it.

One Friday in January of 2018 a female friend and I dressed in warm sweaters and jeans armed with snacks and drinks to ready ourselves for the magnificent movie that is… "Call Me by Your Name". When you first entered the room you could feel the anticipation to see something utterly new, there was a collective anticipation and willingness to be dazzled by the stunning landscape of northern Italy. We like, the main character Elio were ready to fall I love.


CMBYN is a story of a powerful and young romance that blooms between a young 17-year-old Italian boy named Elio and a suave handsome American graduate student named Oliver. Oliver is coming to spend what seems to be a simple six weeks in Italy with Elio and his family as he helps Elio’s father with his research in classical archeology. While six weeks make seem like a short time for a romance to blossom what you will see is that in six weeks love can become immortal.

Over the course of the movie, Elio and Oliver begin to share and learn about each other, each to either too stubborn or too anxious to really move into the next stage of their relationship until one pivotal movement where they discover themselves in each other.

CMBYN is a stunning movie with amazing acting and gorgeous landscapes that will transport you to a higher realm. It will make you question yourself and the world around you as this movie of young desire swirls through your mind. Honestly, CMBYN might be one the best love stories in a very long time. It’s free of clichés and super macho men chasing after a damsel in distress. Instead, it’s simply a movie about two people who fall so deeply in love that you will fall in love as well.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.
