Shia LaBeouf: Actor, Artist, Genius

The year 2000 introduced the world to a new actor that would one day revolutionize what we know today as art. This man is Shia LaBeouf. Every one knows this guy as the lovable character on the show Even Stevens, Louis Stevens. Since then his acting career has spanned numerous movies.

Within recent years the actor has dipped his foot in the art world. His first art installation was a four day movie marathon. A movie theatre in New York City ran every movie the actor was ever in starting from the most recent to the oldest. The artist sat in the theatre and watched every movie through the four day period. People were allowed to come and go as they please. There was also a live stream of the actor in the theatre watching the movies. This was the first time the actor really delved deep into the artistic community.

Shia LaBeouf's newest art installation is a form of protest to the new president of the United States. Outside the Museum of the Moving Image in Queens, New York, LaBeouf has set up a camera that will be live streaming for the next four years while Donald Trump is in office. People are welcome to come to the spot, stand in front of the camera, and chant "He will not divide us." in front of the camera for the world to watch.

The live stream began January 20th as Trump was being inaugurated into office. He got the help of Jaden Smith to help get the project in motion. People have been standing in front of the camera since then chanting "He will not divide us." If you have a need to ever let your anger out at the Reality Star turned PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES then go down to the museum and chant with the crowd of people in front of the camera.

This participatory art installation from the crazy mind of the ex-disney star may be his most ambitions stunt since the time he stood in an elevator for 24 hours straight. You can watch the live stream here. Maybe if your lucky you'll catch this hero yelling at someone who doesn't understand the protest.

No Matter How Challenging School Gets, You Have To Put Your Health First — A Degree Won't Mean Anything If You're Dead

Some of the best advice I've ever received was from my social studies teacher in sophomore year of high school. He stated, "If you don't know it at midnight, you're not going to know it for the 8 a.m. exam, so get some sleep."

It's such a simple piece of advice, but it holds so much accuracy and it's something that the majority of college students need to hear and listen to. "All-nighters" are a commonality on college campuses in order to cram in studying for an exam that is typically the next day.

This is for the girls who have dealt with an emotionally, mentally, physically or verbally abusive father.

The ones who have grown up with a false lens of what love is and how relationships should be. The ones who have cried themselves to sleep wondering why he hurts you and your family so much. This is for all the girls who fall in love with broken boys that carry baggage bigger than their own, thinking it's their job to heal them because you watched your mother do the same.

Blair Waldorf Quote
"DESTINY IS FOR LOSERS. IT'S JUST A STUPID EXCUSE TO WAIT FOR THINGS TO HAPPEN INSTEAD OF MAKING THEM HAPPEN." - BLAIR WALDORF.

The world stopped in 2012 when our beloved show "Gossip Girl" ended. For six straight years, we would all tune in every Monday at 9:00 p.m. to see Upper Eastside royalty in the form of a Burberry headband clad Blair Waldorf. Blair was the big sister that we all loved to hate. How could we ever forget the epic showdowns between her and her frenemy Serena Van Der Woodsen? Or the time she banished Georgina Sparks to a Christian summer camp? How about that time when she and her girls took down Bart Bass? Blair is life. She's taught us how to dress, how to be ambitious, and most importantly, how to throw the perfect shade.

too tired to care

We've all been there. From move-in day to the first finals week in college, your first term is an adventure from start to finish. In honor of college decisions coming out recently, I want to recap some of the most common experiences college freshmen experience.

1. The awkward hellos on move-in day.

You're moving your stuff onto your floor, and you will encounter people you don't know yet in the hallway. They live on your floor, so you'll awkwardly smile and maybe introduce yourself. As you walk away, you will wonder if they will ever speak to you again, but don't worry, there's a good chance that you will make some great friends on your floor!
