10 Best Netflix Shows To Binge This Summer

Summer is here, and it is hot. If you live in Arizona like I do you may not even have the motivation to leave your house because of the horrible heat.

When it's this hot out, we must search for ways to pass the time while staying cool. One of the most popular ways of spending time nowadays is Netflix. Shows and movies are available in abundance and can keep us and our friends and family entertained for hours. The problem many people have, however, is finding the right show to watch. If you need some show suggestions you have come to the right place.

Here are my top 10 Netflix show suggestions for your next hot weather induced summer binge:

1. The Office

If you are looking for subtle comedy in an interesting style, look no further. This show never seems to go out of style, so if you still haven't seen it, it's not too late to catch up!

2. Malcolm in the Middle

This show is pretty old but still hilarious! It co-stars Brian Cranston, so fans of Breaking Bad may be interested in seeing him in a comedy role. Overall, this show is a classic favorite.

3. Switched at Birth

This drama sounded cliched when I first heard about it, but after watching the first couple episodes I was hooked. The premise is kind of cheesy, but the characters are great and the storyline is intriguing.

4. Fraiser

This is another old one. This show is full of intellectual humor and great characters. It's a spin-off of the classic show Cheers, but I feel that it is better and is sadly underrated.

5. Parks and Recreation

Another comedy. Do you notice a theme? This show is similar to The Office in style but its humor is a bit different. The characters are very likable and interesting, making for an all around funny show that is definitely worth your time.

6. Sherlock

This is another drama, and, to be honest, there are not very many episodes. In fact, there are only 13. Nevertheless, this show is amazing and wonderful and oh so interesting. Please watch it.

7. How I Met Your Mother

This show is so funny. I started it not thinking I would like it, but season lead on to season and I was loving it. Take fair warning, however, that the end is unexpected, and in my view, very disappointing. Regardless, I loved watching it and you should watch it despite the ending.

8. The Great British Baking Show

Yes. It is a cooking show. What? You wouldn't binge a show about cooking? You don't know the addiction until you've seen the show. It's good. It's got amazing food, British accents, and interesting people. Try it.

9. Stranger Things

Once again, this show does not have a lot of episodes, but the ones it does have are awesome, and there are more episodes coming. This is a retro sci-fi thriller. Definitely not my genre, in general, but I am hooked. It will turn your world upside down.

10. Friends

Finally, there is the wonderful and humorous gem that is Friends. This show is fantastic and everyone should watch it. Really. It's worth it.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
