When Pitch Perfect was released in 2012, no one thought it would be as big of a success as it was. Becoming the third highest-grossing musical comedy of all time behind School of Rock and it's own sequel Pitch Perfect 2.

Pitch Perfect 3 continues the story of the Bellas, the underdog acapella group turned world champions, who are now down on their luck, and struggling in the real world, the Bellas team up one last time, this time they embark on a USO tour, competing for a spot to open for DJ Khaled, the only problem, they have to compete against actual instruments.

Starring Anna Kendrick (Up in the Air, Into the Woods), Brittany Snow (John Tucker Must Die, Hairspray), Anna Camp (True Blood), Rebel Wilson (Bridesmaids), and Hailee Steinfeld (True Grit, Edge of Seventeen), the Pitch Perfect franchise is filled with amazing talent.As well as the return of many of the original cast, it sees newcomers Ruby Rose (Orange is the New Black), John Lithgow, and Matt Lanter (Timeless).

Pitch Perfect 3 does not quite surpass its predecessors, that is not to say it doesn't hold its own. PP3 strays form the classic competition that was shown in the previous installments, leaving room for a rather surprising turn of events. Though the plot may seem a little bit out there, I believe that it was executed brilliantly. Highlighted by outstanding performances and great vocals, Pitch Perfect 3 does not disappoint. If you enjoyed the first two films, I guarantee you will enjoy Pitch Perfect 3.

Pitch Perfect 3 is now playing in theaters. The soundtrack is also available now.

Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
