Margot Robbie is now undoubtedly a household name thanks to her breakout role as Naomi Lapagalia in "The Wolf Of Wall Street." Many considered her to be an overnight sensation, claiming she came out of nowhere. Some might take this as a compliment and run with it, however Margot finds this offensive and rightfully so.

Margot began her career 5 years prior to this role, acting in independent Australian films and even landing a breakout role for the Australian television show Neighbours. She became a hit in Australian and made the decision in 2011 to move to Los Angeles and take her career to the next level.

Years before Margot moved to Los Angeles she worked day in and day out on her craft while juggling three different job at the age of 16 to support her family. She got involved with local plays around town to sharpen her craft for she did not have enough money to take private classes and hire an acting coach to further excel in her craft. After taking part in a short independent film directed by a friend, she knew that this is the career she wanted.

Many people say that it takes more luck than talent to make it in hollywood. This may be the case for some actors, however with Margot there was more talent than luck to bring her to where she is today. She was granted an opportunity to audition for the role of Naomi, beating out other top a-list actresses such as Olivia Wilde. She didn’t just get lucky, she saw an opportunity and ran with it.

I said this time after time, Margot Robbie will go down as one of the best actresses of our generation. She is more than just a pretty face on your television screen. She is an actress who fell in love with the craft of acting and has a God given gift for it. She has worked hard to be where she is today and deserves some more recogonition for it.

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.
