Aca-Believe It

I have reasons behind my obsession with "Pitch Perfect."

Aca-Believe It

Within the past week, "Pitch Perfect 2" was released on DVD. How excited was I? Way too excited! Let's just say that I had a countdown on my phone. What? Once it left theaters I had to wait for what felt like forever to watch the movie again. I am obsessed with “Pitch Perfect,” both the original and the sequel, and my parents bought me my own copy of “Pitch Perfect” before I moved to college so I wouldn't have to take their copy (thanks for that, by the way).

If you have never met me before, but you have seen both “Pitch Perfect movies,” let me introduce myself to you. I am a combination of Chloe and Beca.

1. I am bubbly.

Chloe, as you have more than likely noticed, is a very energetic person. Like Chloe, I love to meet new people. She smiles constantly and tries to make everyone's day so much better. If someone is upset, I will try to make their day 10 times better.

2. I am a Radio Broadcaster.

As we all remember from the first movie, Beca works for her college radio station. I have been working at the radio station located at my college since my freshman year. I even worked the night shift for half of the year.

3. Team bonding is important.

In the second movie, Chloe decides that The Bellas need to go on a retreat to find their harmony. I love retreats. Anything with team bonding written on it has my name on it too.

4. I am focused on the future.

Beca gets an internship her senior year and begins thinking about life after The Bellas. I am always thinking about what I want to do with my major when I am out of college.

5. I care about my team.

I am involved with different organizations, and like both Beca and Chloe, I care about my organizations and the teams involved with them. Sure, it's not an a cappella group, but it's a group of people working towards a goal. How cool would it be if it was a cappella?

Call me obsessed with "Pitch Perfect" but I can admit it; I have no shame. I am proud that I saw the second movie 10 times in theaters (I work at a movie theater). But The Bellas have a special place in my heart, especially Beca and Chloe. You better "Aca Believe It."

11 Things Summer Nannies Can Relate To

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

If it hurts now, it'll hurt again. Not because you're gullible or naive, only because you fall fast, hard, and you do it every time.

We fall each and every time with the complete and utter confidence that someone will be there to catch us. Now that person we SWORE we were never going to fall for has our hearts, and every time we see them our palms start sweating. The butterflies in our stomach start to soar and our hearts are entirely too close to bursting out of our chests.

Growing up I have always wanted to own a horse. My grandparents own a well known equestrian facility in Georgia, so I have been riding since I was born. A bond between a person and their horse is a bond so strong that it cannot be broken. Everywhere I went I wanted to be around horses, even forcing my family to go on trail rides during vacations. Horses have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember has taught me great responsibility, as well as 14 things that all equestrians can relate to.

College is super hard. Between working, studying, and having a social life, it feels like a struggle to just keep afloat.

I understand. When you feel like your drowning and there's no way to stay afloat I understand that it feels like everyone else is doing just fine. I understand all the frustration, long nights in the library, and that feeling that you want to just throw in the towel. I understand that sometimes it's too hard to get out of bed because your brain is already filled with too much information to remember. I understand because I am also feeling pretty burnt out.

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.
