I'm incredibly excited to see what 2019 brings, so I wrote a list of what is to come. Read below and find out what you should be looking for!

Reboots!

"Pet Sematary," "Dumbo," "The Lion King," "Jacob's Ladder," "Men In Black," "The Addams Family" and more will be remade in the new year.

A museum of the Statue of Liberty

In the museum, you go from room to room, learning how the statue was made. You'll almost feel as if you are in the sculptor's warehouse.

The ending of "Game of Thrones"

The last season of "Game of Thrones" will air this coming year. It had an incredible run, and this will no doubt be the best season yet.

Lets just say it's going to be a big year for Disney (Both Disney theme parks including more Star Wars, movies)

Disney is doing an incredible job. "Star Wars" is being incorporated into the theme parks, and movie after movie is being released. A few movies too that they are releasing are "The Lion King", "Dumbo", "Aladdin", "Avengers: End Game", etc.

It's a huge year for movies

The thing I'm most excited about are the movies being released this year. Some I'm most excited for include "Glass", "Hellboy," "Star Wars," "Frozen 2," "Pokemon," etc.

And books!

New and amazing books come out every year, but a certain few in 2019 include "The WInter of the Witch" by Katherine Arden, "The Road Beyond Ruin" by Gemma Liviero, "We Hope for Better Things" by Erin Bartels, etc.

Mahatma Gandhi turns 150

An incredible activist will be turning 150 on October 2nd!

We'll have 5 eclipses!

Five eclipses will grace us this year in parts of Argentina, Chile, South Pacific, South Asia, and the Arabian Peninsula!

An asteroid will hopefully miss Earth

There are suspicions that an Asteroid could hit Earth on February 1st, but it is very unlikely.

 The loss of certain species

In 2018 we lost a lot of amazing species to deforestation and hunting, like the last male northern white rhino. Species will only continue to decrease in the coming years.

 3D Printing

3D printing is coming to the medical field in amazing ways. Not only is it a fun little (expensive) project on the side, it's going to become something everyone will be talking about. It'll help with building medical tools, but 3D printers will also be sold to average everyday people.

 A royal baby

After sadly facing some ridicule and judgment from the media, there is finally great news! Meghan and Harry are expecting a baby sometime in the spring.

 Milestones

This year we can expect to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11 mission.

Every year comes new and crazy experiences, and this year seems like it's going to be even crazier than the last. Enjoy 2019 and make it the best year yet!

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions.

It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
