My Top 5 Movies Of Summer '18

c1.staticflickr.com

I´m not really a movie buff. I don´t have the patience to watch movies if I´m being honest. But, these are five movies that I thoroughly enjoyed and are rated well by other viewers.

1. "Incredibles 2"

If you haven't already seen this movie, I suggest you do. I saw this recently and honestly, I waited far too long. This movie is possibly the best movie I have ever watched. It did not disappoint AT ALL. I can say that it exceeded my expectations. I didn't think it could top the first movie, but I was proven wrong. I left the movie theater completely satisfied and content with my experience. It was worth the fourteen-year wait.

2. "Hereditary"

I expected hauntings and got slapped with something entirely different. It had some very gory and unexpected turns. I didn't think it was as scary as people assumed it was. When watching this movie, be sure to pay attention to the small details because that is really what allows you to truly understand it.

3. "Life of the Party"

It wasn't the best-rated movie on Rotten Tomatoes, (my boyfriend thinks that a good rating is imperative for it to be considered great) but I thought it was a very cute movie. Maybe it wasn't the most thrilling or well thought out movie, but it had some lessons to be learned. It was very funny and entertaining. If you're looking for a lighthearted and quirky movie to watch, this would be it.

4. "Ant-Man and the Wasp"

"Ant-Man and the Wasp" was a huge turn from the devastating ending of Infinity War. No spoilers will be provided, but let's just say that the mood has changed. "Ant-Man and the Wasp" made us have hope in the MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe) again with its witty, playful, and hilarious writing. It was a huge improvement from the first film and with another addition to the team, it looks like the Avengers have even more help with the next big threat to come...or perhaps it never went away.

5. "Deadpool 2"

Deadpool was a success from the beginning and there was a lot of high expectations when it came to this one. I don´t think it was better than the first, but it did help that they had a bigger budget. They were able to do more and meet the expectations that MCU fans had for the movie. I'd recommend seeing this movie in theaters for sure.

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?

sisters

Taylor Hooper

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.
