If there is one thing I can say with certainty about myself it is that I am an avid movie lover. Watching movies is one of my favorite past times and I especially love going to the movies with my friends. But one thing that I am disappointed about is that last semester I did not go to the movies very often. This year I plan to fix that and go to see some of the movies coming out in 2017. So here are some of the movies coming out this year that I am excited about going to see.

Logan

Release date: March 3, 2017

The X-men universe is my favorite Marvel universe and this is rumored to be Hugh Jackman's last movie as the Wolverine. That makes me sad and the trailer seems really deep. I'm looking forward to the movie though because I want to see his last performance.

Beauty and the Beast

Release date: March 17, 2017

A tribute to the classic Disney animated movie Beauty and the Beast. I'm looking forward to if they do the movie justice, but with Emma Watson from the Harry Potter series on board, I feel like it will be awesome.

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2

Release date: May 5, 2017

The first Guardians of the Galaxy turned out to be a Marvel movie favorite which makes fans super excited for this sequel. I just really really want to see Baby Groot in action.

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales

Release date: May 26, 2017

Pirates of the Caribbean is a throwback for me and their last movie came out a while ago. I can't wait to see Johnny Depp's performance again as Captain Jack Sparrow.

Wonder Woman

Release date: June 2, 2017

So excited to have a superhero movie with a strong female lead character. The only good thing about Batman vs. Superman was Wonder Woman so it's great that she is getting her own movie. Hopefully DC doesn't mess it up

Transformers: The Last Knight

Release date: June 23, 2017

I never used to be a fan of the Transformers series but I did go to see the last one and I really enjoyed it, so I am looking forward to this new one.

Spider-Man: Homecoming

Release date: July 7, 2017

So many exciting things about this movie. One is that this is a whole new Spider-Man and also it seems like the romantic interest is a woman of color. I hope I like this version of Spider-Man.

War for the Planet of the Apes

Release date: July 14, 2017

The Planet of the Apes movies, although they are not usually my cup of tea I think the last two were both really good. I am looking forward to seeing where they take it from there.

Thor: Ragnarok

Release date: November 3, 2017

Even though there is no trailer out for this movie yet, I am still excited about it. I love Loki and The Hulk is my favorite Marvel character so seeing as they will both be in this movie, it should be great.

Justice League

Release date: November 17, 2017

I feel like I am always excited for DC movies and then I get let down almost every time. But I have high hopes for this movie. Especially for Jason Momoa as Aqua man. Also all the new versions of characters such as Cyborg and The Flash. Fingers crossed that DC gets this movie right.

These are the movies that I'm looking forward to watching in 2017. I hope you all get to enjoy them too

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

The holiday season is full of stress, debt, and forced conversation. While we rush through the month of December, it's important to take a step back and enjoy the moments before they're gone. Most families love to watch Christmas movies, but these beloved films provide more than entertainment. Here are 10 life lessons that I've learned from the holiday classics we watch every year.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

1."But what would happen if we all tried to be like Santa and learned to give as only he can give: of ourselves, our talents, our love and our hearts? Maybe we could all learn Santa's beautiful lesson and maybe there would finally be peace on Earth and good will toward men."

"Sometimes the most real things in the world are the things we can't see."

"If you won't use your heart, who cares if it gets broken? If you just keep it to yourself, maybe it'll be like my rollerblades. When you do decide to try it, it won't be any good. You should take a chance. Got nothing to lose."

"Remember, no man is a failure who has friends."

"Life is made up of meetings and partings. That is the way of it."

"If you look for it, I've got a sneaky feeling you'll find a that love actually is all around."

"Sometimes things look good on paper, but lose their luster when you see how it affects real folks. I guess a healthy bottom line doesn't mean much if to get it, you have to hurt the ones you depend on."

"'Maybe Christmas,' he thought, 'doesn't come from a store. Maybe Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more.'"

"Faith is believing when common sense tells you not to."

"There's room for everyone on the nice list."

Hopefully they will make you laugh.

11. Is there a synonym for "synonym"?

12. If your shirt isn't tucked into your pants, are your pants tucked into your shirt?

13. Why is it called "quick sand" if you sink slowly in it?

14. If I try to fail, but succeed, which one did I do?
