Through the glorious years of Adam West all the way to Ben Affleck.

The universe has had its run of good (and bad) Batmans. In the upcoming years we will soon have Robert Pattinson leading to the ultimate question, is this new actor going to be better or worse for the future of our beloved Dark Knight?

While we all have our different opinions on the actor, his acting skills are much broader and serious before and after the Twilight series. His many portrayals in other films have made him a much better role for upcoming movies such as his recent role in High Life (2018) which received an 83% on Rotten Tomatoes. W

hile many fans and critics believe Pattinson has no right to claim the role of the mysterious DC crime-fighter due to his past role as a self-loathing and depressed vampire in the Twilight series. It's hard to argue his acting skills couldn't fight the same emotion as an overly depressed and wealthy hero.

I mean generally speaking Edward Cullen was pretty much the same as Batman besides the expensive suits and crime-fighting. However, the two both find common ground in regards to bats (in the sense vampires suck blood and so do bats) and a depressing, dramatic past that represents the way they act, behave and live in everyday life.

While I firmly believe we should all learn to accept change and positively embrace the new Batman we are getting (because they aren't going to change it over some whiny men who didn't enjoy a supernatural romance movie series).

Robert Pattinson is a diverse actor and whether you're still stuck on a movie that even he hated or learning to love his acting skills in all the other films he is amazingly doing so well with I highly advise you embrace what is to come and prepare yourself for the upcoming DC movie, The Batman.

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.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.
