I have always been a lover of films. Anything for the arts I totally love. All this viewing is from the works of Netflix of course. One of my favorite writers/directors is an extremely talented woman named Issa Rae. She is best known as being the creator of a Youtube series called Awkward Black Girl and going on the create, write, and star in her HBO hit Insecure ( which is one of my favorite shows).

She also works on many other projects one of them being Short Film Sunday. Short Film Sundays is content Issa Rae has on her channel where she invites filmmakers to submit and be featured on the channel. So if you are into film making I would check that out by the way.

Some of my honorable mentions as followed are:

Dream

Sinking Ships by Marian Mereba.

Issa Rae also has a section within Short Film Sundays Called "We Are-"

The "we are" parts changes for each film being

We Are - Artists

and

We Are - Friends

Both are pretty interesting films. But furthermore, if you just explore the Short Film Sundays in the world of Youtube you will find all sorts of content. The films may not be super active like a action pack motion picture but they are deep and meaningful. They just display the everyday life of people of color in different scenarios.

So if you are just looking for deep content to explore on Youtube I highly recommend checking Issa Rae's Short Film Sunday out. It is well worth it!

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Everybody gets sick once in a while, but getting sick while in college is the absolute worst. You're away from home and your mom who can take care of you and all you really want to do is just be in your own bed. You feel like you will have never-ending classwork to catch up on if you miss class, so you end up going sick and then it just takes longer to get better. Being sick in college is really tough and definitely not a fun experience. Here are the 15 stages that everyone ends up going through when they are sick at college.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
