** WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD**

Everyone loves to just kick back, relax, and watch some Netflix. But there's always that dilemma that people face when they finish the show they are currently watching and they stare at the black screen with their face reflecting back at them wondering what show to watch next. In no order, here are ten Netflix shows you have to watch.

1. "Orange is the New Black"

With Season 5 premiering in early June, it is a prime time to start watching OITNB. The storyline of this season captivates you and makes you want to see if the prisoners demands will be met and where the prisoners will end up after the riot. Throughout the five seasons, you see the characters grow and develop, and you become connected to who they become.

2. "Friday Night Lights"

A classic show for anyone who loves football, family, friends, and attractive boys. From Tim Riggins to Matt Saracen to Coach Taylor, every boy that crosses your screen will capture your heart. Through the heartbreak of Jason Street's career ending injury, the excitement of seeing Smash play college football, and the troublesome East Dillon Lions winning a State Championship, this show brings out every emotion. "Clear eyes, full hearts, can't lose"

3. "Grey's Anatomy"

With the fourteenth season of Grey's coming up, now is a perfect time to watch the past thirteen. It is difficult to watch after Derek dies and Callie moves to New York, but new relationships and new interns still keep you watching. The bond between Meredith, Maggie, and Amelia is unbreakable and you love how Alex has become Meredith's person.

4. "Friends"

Obviously this iconic show is on the list. Watching how Chandler and Monica's relationship starts and grows throughout the show is one of the most heartwarming plots. Though at times Ross and Rachel's relationship frustrated you, you always wanted them to be happy, while Joey and Phoebe have such an infectious energy.

5. "Parks and Recreation"

Between the bland personality Ron Swanson, organized Leslie Knope, perfect Ann Perkins, and crazy aspiring entrepreneur Tom Haverford, you deserve to "treat yo' self" to 7 crazy seasons. Watch Leslie run for governor of Indiana, Ron works for the National Park Service, April and Andy become parents, and Ann is married. Fall in love with Pawnee, Indiana, you won't regret it.

6. "Bones"

The perfect combination of crime show and drama, Bones, is a long running show that grabs your attention from start to finish. Watching the relationship between Booth and Bones grow, as well as Angela and Hodgins, adds drama to the crime solving. Between serial killers, family murderers, and recurring plots, this show will never let you down.

7. "One Tree Hill"

This one is self explanatory. Between Nathan and Haley, Quinn and Clay, Lucas and Peyton, and Julian and Brooke, you grow with the characters and see them grow up. Family crises, car accidents, murders, dreams, and babies keep you on the edge of your set wondering what the magical town of Tree Hill, North Carolina will bring you next.

8. "90210"

Welcome to the lives of privileged, rich kids of Beverly Hills. When two midwestern kids, Annie and Dixon, move to Beverly Hills, they learn that having a lot of money does not mean you live a happy life. Lies, drug addictions, hit and runs, family, friends, love, and the hot boys create the perfect mix of happiness and desperation, trying to figure out what story will unfold.

9. "Shameless"

Shameless submerses you into the life of an underprivileged family in the suburbs of Chicago. As the older sister tries to take the place of a drunk father and missing mother, while trying to live her own life. The large family has to deal with a loss of money, heartbreak, drug addiction, teen pregnancy, and unwanted family members. You think that nothing in this show will surprise you, but just wait.

10. "Hawaii Five-0"

Lieutenant Commander Steve McGarrett runs a task force made up of top crime fighters in Honolulu, Hawaii. Cousins Chin Ho Kelly and Kono Kalakaua work with Danny Williams, Lou Grover, Dr. Max Bergman and Jerry Ortega to keep the island of Oahu safe. Though a seemingly intense show, the comic relief given by many one-liners, the relationship between Steve and Danny, and quick-witted criminals make this a must watch show for anyone.


Happy watching!

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.
