The 5 Feelings You Get Rewatching Your Favorite TV Series Or Movies

I really enjoy revisiting my favorite shows like "Grey’s Anatomy" (R.I.P., Derek Shepard). For some people, they like to watch the entire story from beginning to end all over again and not skip around, while for others, they like to watch only their favorite parts. Me personally, I like both sides because let’s face it, some scenes are so boring I just need to skip them. While watching, here are some things I find myself doing.

1. Deciding to re-watch it because you’re bored.

We’ve all been there when you are scrolling through Netflix and just can’t seem to find any new shows that meet your standards. For me, "The 100" didn’t cut it. We give it a try but ultimately resort back to either the classics ("Clueless") or our favorites ("Gossip Girl").

2. Knowing the plot.

Obviously we know what’s going to happen in every part or episode, so it's no surprise when the people end up (back) together. Its all exciting even if something tragic happens just because you are already prepared… to get the tissues.

3. Snoring through the boring.

I absolutely skip the boring scenes, who doesn’t? I have no time to waste watching people walk down hallways or watch my least favorite characters’ drama. No thank you. I will say that skipping the boring parts puts me at the best seat in the house to watch the best scenes, aka any. Jon. Snow. Scene. Ever.

4. Sleep deprivation.

Either you’ve gotten some sleep and are a responsible show watcher, or you’ve gone without sleep for days and weeks from watching episode after episode, or completing the movie collection. I’ve caught myself doing just that and I can’t honestly say I was in full no contact mode. #SorryNotSorry.

5. Depression.

I’ve just finished my third time re-watching "Grey's" and I am very sad that its over, but not that sad because the new season premiere is right around the corner! Even if its all over, forcing your friends to start watching the series you’ve been pining over since forever is always exciting and then you have another reason to watch it all over again so it’s a win-win.

So even though you probably wasted half your youth, it was all worth it and will probably end up doing it again. I know I have and I defiantly know I will.

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.
