What's really in a new year? Sure, we can resolve to lose 10 (or 20 or 30 or 40 or 50) pounds, stop procrastinating, and start reading actual books. But let's be real. We'll probably do none of that. With 2017 looming around the corner, there's one thing to truly be excited about: Cinema. There are going to be some awesome movies coming out in 2017, so grab some popcorn and settle in for this juicy list.

1. Hidden Figures (January 2017)

This instant classic is based on the true story of three African-American women who were the brains behind sending NASA astronaut John Glenn into orbit. Their contribution restored the nation's confidence and turned around the Space Race. Oh yeah, did I mention that this movie was about three African-American women doing amazingly awesome things IN THE 1950'S? Gotta love it.

2. Gold (January 2017)

Gold stars Matthew McConaughey as a failing businessman who is looking for a lucky break. In an act of desperation, McConaughey's character ends up teaming up with a geologist to find a gold mother lode in the Indonesian jungle. This movie looks like it will be alright, alright, alright.

3. The Great Wall (February 2017)

Matt Damon is at it again. This time he's not on Mars, but in China fighting some mysterious creatures. The premise of this film is that the Chinese built the great wall to fend off mysterious, antagonistic creatures. Matt Damon plays a mercenary captured by the Chinese who must now fight to save humanity. Crazy man. Just crazy.

4. Logan (March 2017)

This movie is a sequel of the Wolverine movie that came out in 2013. And I mean, X-Men, Wolverine, Hugh Jackman. You get the picture. Gonna be LIT.

5. The Case For Christ (April 2017)

This movie is based off of the must-read book that shares the same title. The movie (like the book) follows journalist and atheist Lee Strobel as he comes to faith after being assigned a piece to prove Southern Christians as backwoods and cult-ish.

6. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (May 2017)

It's going to be siiiiiiiiiiiiiiick. The new trailer just dropped too! Gotta give Star Lord some respect.

7. Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales (May 2017)

Johnny Depp returns as Captain Jack Sparrow. Prepare yourselves for the bombardment of "can't even's."

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.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
