The 10 Stages Of A Netflix Addiction

Netflix is a great way to watch television series and movies instantly on any of your devices. This multinational media conglomerate is used by millions of people around the world. However, it can also become a very addicting. Here are the ten stages of a Netflix addiction.

1. Chose a show to start.

There are tons of shows out there on Netflix that you can begin watching! The media streaming outlet has sitcoms, dramas, crimes, superheroes, fantasies, romances, thrillers, horrors, suspense, and period pieces.

2. Watch the first few episodes over the course of a few days.

You enjoy the first two or three episodes and continue to watch the show. Its no big deal... yet.

3. Once you get halfway through the first season your most likely a goner.

Getting to the midseason of the show should make you realize that there is absolutely no turning back now.

4. No more sleep for you.

You are sitting in bed about to finish an episode at around midnight. You tell yourself you are going to bed. Next thing you know the clock says four in the morning and you've watched a dozen episodes.

5. The show begins to consume your thoughts.

You start dreaming about the characters on the show and think about them throughout your entire day.

6. You feel all the feels when watching the show.

You laugh, you cry, you scream, and love all of the characters. You feel their pain, their anger, and all of the possible emotions.

7. Netflix is on whenever and wherever you are.

You watch while you are at the gym, after class or work, during dinner, while going to the bathroom, and even in the shower.

8. You never shut up about the show you're watching.

You constantly tell your friends to watch the show because it's the greatest thing since sliced bread.

9. When you know the end is near.

When you get to the last few episodes you feel the feels and don't know what you'll do with yourself when it is all over or once you are all caught up.

10. The denial of the end.

Once you finish or are caught up you find another show and do it all over again. But there will always be a place in your heart for the last series you watched.

If you are looking for a good show to get into here is a list:

Breaking Bad, Friends, How I Met Your Mother, New Girl, BoJack Horseman, Parks & Recreation, 30 Rock, Orange Is The New Black, Daredevil, Jessica Jones, That 70’s Show, Grace & Frankie, House of Cards, The Flash, Arrow, Supernatural, Bloodline, Arrested Development, The Office, Lost, American Horror Story, Glee, The Walking Dead, Dexter, Bones, House, Scrubs, Mad Men, Sherlock, Grey’s Anatomy, Scandal, How To Get Away With Murder, and The Blacklist.

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.
