Based on Jay Asher's 2007 bestselling book, 13 Reasons Why has been adapted into a Netflix series that has everyone talking. The thirteen-episode show tells the story of a seventeen-year-old girl named Hannah who commits suicide and leaves a series of tapes for thirteen people, explaining the reasons why she did what she did. The show is heavy, and the themes and messages it touches on are not always easy to watch, but they're important. Heaviness aside, if you've watched the show, there are some things on the lighter side that you may notice, and we could think of a few different names this show could've gone by.


1. "13 Shades of Clay's Forehead Scrape"

Did Clay ever get that cut checked out? Why does he only put a Band-Aid on it in some episodes and not others? What is that awful yellow color it was turning and why are people not commenting on this horrific looking gash?

2. "13 Super Short Dresses That Sheri Bought at Gap Kids, Probably"

Seriously, those things could fit a toddler.


3. "13 Times I've Wondered Why No One is Judging Justin for His Chest Tattoo"

It looks like the "No Ragrets" tattoo from We're the Millers. I can't even tell what it says, but it's hard to look at. You're better than that, Justin.


4. "13 Reasons Jeff Atkins Deserved Better"

R.I.P. Jeff, you wonderful, kind, baseball player.


5. "13 Times I Gagged Because Jessica Drinks Straight Vodka"

That girl's got a crazy tolerance. If she didn't clearly have a drinking problem, I'd be kind of impressed by her ability to chug vodka straight.


6. "13 Times I Felt Personally Victimized by the Guidance Counselor"

HE WAS JUST THE WORST.


7. "13 Reasons Courtney Set Women Back 40 Years"

Not only did she throw Hannah under the bus to keep her own secret, which is breaking every girl code ever, she refused to acknowledge that what she did was wrong on any level. On top of being an all-around crappy person, she victim-shamed Jessica AND Hannah. I'm still angry she defended Bryce and sided with all the guys who wanted to keep Bryce's crimes a secret.


8. "13 Times I Remembered My Childhood Because Clay is Actually Todd from 'The Clique'"

Ah, how's he grown!


9. "13 Times I Wondered if Hannah Put Gel in Her Hair Or if it Was Naturally Like That"

I seriously wanted to touch her hair the entire series. It just looked so......crunchy? Also her short hair was definitely a poorly adjusted wig that I wanted to fix myself the entire time, but hey that's just me.


10. "13 Times Tony Was the Best Character, But Also the Worst"

He was sketchy as Hell and spoke in riddles, and let's not forget he made Clay climb up that rock even though they could've just gone on the trail. Still, he did what he did to protect Clay and make sure what happened to Hannah didn't happen to him. The best, but the worst.


11. "13 Times I Wished There Was a Cool Coffee Place Like Monet's in My Town"

Why don't my friends and I go get trendy coffee and read tarot cards? I'm confused.


12. "13 Reasons I'm So Glad I Didn't Go to That God Awful High School"

High school was rough but this high school seems especially terrible, especially with people like Bryce running the school. No, thank you.


13. "13 Times This Show Was Frustrating But So Important"

Granted, you should read the book, but this show demonstrates the importance of telling the truth and being kind to everyone because you don't know what they're going through.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
