Our 5 Favorite Moments from Series of Unfortunate Events

hypable.com

Caution: there will be a ridiculous amount of spoilers in this article, so I suggest if you haven't had the displeasure of watching this Series of Unfortunate Events yet, you look away. The adaption of this book series into the Netflix series was the best thing to happen since the books themselves were written. Now, for the real fans of SOUE, every moment was your favorite moment. This list compiles what we would call the top five moments from the entire series.

1. The moment you met Justice Strauss.

You immediately hoped that somehow, it would be different than the books. You were of course, wrong, and she was still as clueless as ever. Still, she was so darn sweet to the Baudelaires, you couldn't help but love her.

2. When Montgomery Montgomery became what seemed like a hopeful guardian.

He was perfect for the Baudelaires. Yes, a little strange with the snake obsession, but still great. He wanted to really be a father to the kids, and they really seemed to like him. Of course, Olaf/Stephano finds a way to get back into their lives. However, Stephano was definitely one of our favorite disguises.

3. When the children ran away from Mr. Poe and Count Olaf.

Mr. Poe was just about to hand the kids over to Captain Sham (eye roll), when he discovered that he was really Count Olaf. When the kids took off, admit it, you were thrilled. But when Olaf and the crew disappeared, it was a major letdown. We all knew it would probably happen, just like in the book, but there's always hope for a change, right?

4. Seeing Count Olaf as the Receptionist.

This was by far one of the most humorous parts of the series. Everyone hates Count Olaf, so seeing him dressed up as a (quite hideous) woman, was somehow satisfying. Plus, he had some junk in his trunk, which was satisfying as well.

5. The Ending

Seeing the Baudelaires sitting back to back with the strange children whose parents we thought would be the parents of the Baudelaires was mind-boggling. Though it left us hanging, knowing what is to come kept us on edge and waiting for the next season.

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!

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.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
