The Truth About The Snowman

Trust me, the movie was terrible

The Truth About The Snowman
Vox

Usually every week, me and my good friend, Alex, go to the theater to see a movie. We have seen films from Beauty and the Beast to Dunkirk to It. We really do not have a preference, but we both share a love for horror. We love the jump scares, but Alex does not like when I scream at each and every one of them. Even though I scream a lot, I love the horror motif of scary movies.

With our love for scary movies in mind, one weekend, my friend and I decided to see The Snowman. We first heard of this winter thriller while we saw It in theaters. The film then looked great. The trailer gave the feel that the film would be filled with horror and suspense.

However, when we saw the film, we were very disappointed. For one, the film took five ever to progress. I felt like I was sitting in the movie theater watching a film as long as Titanic but not nearly as high in cinematic qualityIt has been a month since I saw this travesty of a movie, and I am still salty for it stealing money out of my pocket.

Maybe I would not be as upset if I was warned via previews before seeing it. It was targeted to other horror films I was seeing. Why put a misleading preview before an actually good scary movie.

Please, do yourselves a favor and never see this movie.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
