I got into Marvel last year, during the early whispers of COVID-19 spreading globally, and I don't regret it. I watched every single Marvel movie, from the Toby McGuire's version of Spider-man (2002) to the latest, amazing show WandaVision; and I have never been more excited for the next phase of Marvel's TV shows. After Avengers: Endgame, fans that filled the theater to watch the cinematic masterpiece had sobbed after the credits had rolled. After such a fantastic, devastating and masterful film, what comes next for the MCU?

The answer is many, many good things to come.

WandaVision

Marvel Studios/ Disney Plus

I have to say that this is the best Marvel show ever created. It's honestly my favorite Marvel produced piece of art that was ever created, and if you haven't seen it, you must. Especially if you're a Marvel fan, it's a crucial beginning to the Phase 4 of the MCU and non-negotiable if you're a fan of good writing, good TV shows and good film. Not only is it the most popular TV show in the World, it's a dazzling reveal of the beginning of Phase 4 of the MCU.

SPOILERS AHEAD!

WandaVision centers around Wanda and her lover and husband Vision as well as their family, in their perfect life in Westview. But not all is at it seems, because as the show progresses further in the future from the 50s, sinister people and motives are revealed to be at play, with Vision suddenly being back from the dead, and a town of people being held hostage. It's a show about Wanda, now the most powerful Avenger in the MCU which is verbally confirmed in the show, and how grief can consume and destroy you, and everyone around you. From charming aesthetics of the 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s and 90s to fabricating a fictional fantasy world were your lover didn't die and you both could live happily ever after with a family of four, WandaVision is a must watch show.

As the beginning of Phase 4, WandaVision takes places just weeks after the end of Avengers: Endgame, and shows the result of the epic, unforgettable final battle with Thanos. People come back from the blip, unaged from 5 years when this disaster had began. Now everyone on earth is scrambling, as half the population is unaged and unmoved in time since then while the other half had to deal with the grief of the world spinning without their loved ones. Like Wanda and Monica in the main cast ofWandaVision, millions of people are struggling to understand what to do in this new, scarred world. It's brilliant, show-stopping, heartwarming and heartwrenching all in one show. Plus, who doesn't love a bit of magic in their life?

The Falcon And The Winter Soldier

The Falcon and The Winter Soldier premieres March 19th, 2021 which is two weeks after the end of WandaVision. I have high hopes for this show, and while I'm not as excited for it as I was for WandaVision or as I am for Loki, I'm excited to see Falcon and Bucky try to fit in Captain America's shoes. His wrinkly, precious old man shoes that he left for them after he lived a full life with Peggy Carter. Steve Rogers is arguably the main character of the MCU (of course, sharing the main spotlight with Tony Stark), am I'm interested to see what void is left, and how Falcon and Bucky can fill it.

Loki

Loki will follow Loki escaping with the Tesseract in Avengers: Endgame, and under the careful watch and guard of the TVA (Time Variance Authority). Held by the the organization devoted to correcting the timeline, we're left to wonder hoe Loki will escape and what kind of mischief that out favorite villain (slash hero maybe? He does die for Thor) will get up to in his very own TV show. Space? Loki? Time-travel? There will definitely be chaos.

Personally, I'm super excited for space misadventures with our favorite villain. The show premieres two weeks after The Falcon and The Winter Soldier.

Spiderman: No Way Home

I love Tom Holland. I love Zendaya. I was extremely disappointed in Spiderman: Homecoming and Spiderman: Far From Home. I hated the focus on high-school Peter, but nevertheless it was good. I'm sure everyone expects big things now that 1. Peter's identity is revealed to the public, 2. Aunt May is vulnerable now that people can find Peter, his school and his home. I'm super excited for this even though I was disappointed by the first two Spider-Man movies in this MCU, because this time Peter has to face serious issues and life threatening troubles and traumas. We're going to see a much more mature Peter Parker than ever before, and I can't wait.

And here are the rest of the shows that are coming up: Miss Marvel (about Monica, from WandaVision), Captain Marvel 2, Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness, What If? (an awesome animated show about different marvel movies with a twist on them), the delayed Black Widow movie, Shang-Chi, Eternals, Hawkeye and She-Hulk.

This article would be thousands of words long if I got into every single one of these shows, so I only covered the big names and what was coming out soon aka the trilogy and the eagerly awaited Spiderman: No Way Home. Out of the list in the previous paragraph, Doctor Strange has always been a favorite of mine and I'm interested as to what Eternals, What If and Miss Marvel will bring to the MCU. We have years of movies ahead of us, and I've got my popcorn ready to go.

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!

For those long nights that turn into mornings when the struggle is real.

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.
