5 Reasons Why Netflix is My College Companion

Let's be honest. We all procrastinate sometimes. It happens. Why force yourself to do something you don't want to do when you could be doing something you enjoy? We all have our weaknesses. Mine is Netflix. So far I have spent 85% of my time at college relaxing with my favorite TV shows. I'll binge on them until the absolute last minute. Then I'll type a quick outline or study for a quick test. How can you not fall into the pattern of Netflix binging? You can so easily fall into a black hole of shows. You can try one episode and finish the first season within a day. So why not bring Netflix with you to college? I promise it will be your best friend.

1. There are always new shows and movies to watch

The binging never has to end when there's always new shows! It could continue through a whole weekend, because I have no motivation on weekends anymore.


2. It's portable

You can take it with you when you decide to be antisocial, which is pretty much always for your average college student. Long live the pillow forts!


3. It's inexpensive

Let's face it. Not only did we hand over our souls when we decided on a college. We also handed over a ton of money. We worship anything that is under $15.


4. The variety is to die for

I am honestly this frog when I am trying to decide between horror and comedy. Like, do I want to cry, or do I want to laugh?


5. It gives me a reason to be lazy 100% of the time

I am lazy all of the time. Without Netflix I would be ridiculed. With Netflix there's a valid reason to lay in bed for 12 hours straight.

Long live Netflix! It is the unspoken hero that college students needed. We didn't know it at first, but now it is everything. Go on show bingers! Live your best college life!

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.

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.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

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.
