We're all familiar with the feeling of not knowing what to watch. We grab a blanket and a snack and click on our Netflix tab only to be faced with a recognizable uncertainty. You want to watch something because you're bored, but you don't want to commit to something if you aren't sure you will like it.

This is especially aggravating given the circumstances of the current pandemic. We're all (hopefully) quarantined in our homes, running out of activities to do, and bored out of our minds.

I'm sure many of you have scrolled through the movie section of Netflix, trying to find something of interest, but you just end up rewatching that TV show series you've binge watched 6 times already.

We can all admit that Netflix is going down-hill but most of us are still stuck with it anyway. Too many gems have been taken off the site, but there are still ones that remain. Without further ado, here are 30 comedies, dramas, rom-coms (mainly), and childhood throwbacks that will keep you entertained for many, many more hours of quarantine:

    1. The Shawshank Redemption
    2. Sleepover
    3. He's Just Not That Into You
    4. Silver Linings Playbook
    5. A Cinderella Story
    6. Falling Inn Love
    7. The Kissing Booth
    8. The Ugly Truth
    9. Dear John
    10. 1 Mile To You
    11. Room
    12. Step Brothers
    13. How The Grinch Stole Christmas
    14. Ferris Bueller's Day Off
    15. Murder Mystery
    16. Princess And The Frog
    17. Sharkboy and Lavagirl
    18. Bird Box
    19. When We First Met

    Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

    This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

    Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

    Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

    Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

    Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

    Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

    I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
