If You Believe In Love, You Need To See 'Forever My Girl'

"It's a story about finding your way."

By the title of the movie, you probably think that this is some standard Nicholas Sparks novel where the girl and the boy overcome all the odds to be together. Well, let me just start this off by saying that this movie is far from ordinary.

This new film that was released on Jan. 19 is, in better words, a realistic romance. Although most people don't run off and become country stars, you've heard more stories about people leaving town for a couple years and then returning to rekindle love with their old high school sweetheart.

And, yes, that phrase makes it seem like another cliche love story that has been told 1,000 times, but this is more than boy meets girl, breaks girls heart and then comes back to mend it.

It's a story about family.

It's a story about friendship.

It's a story about heartbreak.

It's a story about finding your way.

Liam Page, the male lead in the film, ran away from the love of his life on their wedding day and killed himself for it each day with alcohol and whatever hot blonde was in the front row of every show. It took a major life trauma (not going to spoil it) to make him realize it was time to go back to his roots.

And where were those roots? In the hometown where his ex-fiance was, and little to Page's knowledge, a huge surprise waiting for him.

Whether you've been in love before or hate the concept of it completely, this film will hit you. This is coming from a person who has only ever cried during "Marley and Me" (because who wouldn't) but now has another movie to add to the list.

Although there is a lot of country music in this movie (by a lot, I mean the whole thing), this is a movie that will make you realize that even if you're lost right now, you'll always find your way home.

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.

College Informations

Most of us have already started the spring semester, and for those of you who haven't started yet, you suck.

It seems like coming back from winter break wouldn't really be a break all things considered, since we all come back to school and pick up right where we left off. We know exactly what to expect, yet we're unprepared every single time.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
