5 Reasons Why You Need To Stop What You're Doing And Watch 'Haven'
Netflix

Haven is a sy-fy murder mystery show on Netflix and it's amazing. It's set in the town of Haven, Maine, where a lot of supernatural things happen. The people of Haven have "troubles" that are triggered by tragic events in their lives and manifest in real life to put people in danger and it's up to one woman to stop them. The catch? This one woman doesn't even know who she is or what she's capable of. If that little recap didn't convince you to watch this show, here are five reasons why you should watch Haven right now!

1. Gotta love a strong female lead!

Meet Audrey Parker, the FBI agent turned Haven P.D. Detective trying to find herself in a more literal way than your BFF who just broke up with her boyfriend and got a drastic haircut. This chick is awesome. She fights crime not with weapons, but with compassion and diplomacy. She is able to help people overcome their troubles to save the town time and time again.

2. Who doesn't like a good murder-mystery?

Come on, who doesn't like a good mystery? Well, this show is chock-full of them, like: Who is Audrey Parker? Where did the troubles come from? How can she stop them from hurting more people than they already have? Not to mention while Audrey is actively working to stop the troubles, she has to do her job as a Haven P.D. cop solving crimes along the way.

3. Classic love triangle

Audrey has two close guy friends named Nathan and Duke. So far in the show, she hasn't been in love with either of them, but they're both totally in love with her. I know I've chosen a guy I want her to pick, now it's your turn to pick a side!

4. The supernatural factor

The crimes you'll see on this show aren't ones you'll find on Law and Order or True Crime. These are acted out by the supernatural, which makes them much harder to fight, much less solve! And it's up to Detective Parker to figure it out! She really is the only one who can do it. Why? Well, you're just gonna have to watch to find out.

5. The creator

Okay, okay, I've been holding out on you. But I wanted you to watch the show for the amazing characters and intriguing plot, not the creator. But if I haven't hooked you yet, here you go. It's created by none other than Stephen King. If you're familiar with any of his work, you know it's going to be great. If you're not familiar with his work, what better way than to start with this show? So why are you still reading? Get to Netflix!

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods. Which is none other than beer; wonderful cold beer. With summer playing peek-a-boo around the corner while we finish up this semester, it's time to discuss the only important part of summer. And if you haven't already guessed, it's beer. There are few things I take more seriously than my beer, in order are: sports... and beer. Here are my favorite summer brews:

Bruce Springsteen's Top 7 Lyrics

Everything Bruce says in his classic rock songs.

Anyone who was born and raised in New Jersey (or anywhere really) knows of Bruce Springsteen, whether or not they like him is a whole other situation. I hope that his hundreds of classic rock songs and famous high energy performances, even in his sixties he can put on better concerts than people half his age, are at least recognizable to people of all ages. Love him or hate him (I identify with the former) you have to admit that some of his songs and interviews have inspirational quotes and lyrics.

New England Summers Are The BEST Summers

Why you should spend your next summer in New England.

Marconi Beach

Three years ago, I chose to attend college in Philadelphia, approximately 360 miles away from my small town in New Hampshire. I have learned many valuable lessons away from home, and have thoroughly enjoyed my time spent in Pennsylvania. One thing that my experience has taught me, however, is that it is absolutely impossible to beat a New England summer.

You cannot beat the beach. Believe it or not (which many people may not), New England has a long and beautiful coastline. Most of my high school summers were spent sitting on the Wall at Hampton Beach, getting sunburnt and eating Acai bowls from The Secret Spot. The Wall was the place to be both during the day and at night. We begin our days there with a KB's bagel and coffee, and end them with pizza and ice cream. It’s not a New England summer without that 4 p.m. text from someone, “Who wants to meet at the Wall tonight?” Nighttime is for Tripoli’s Pizza, the sound of waves, and wishes on shooting stars. Wednesday nights are especially important, as those are the nights that Hampton Beach sets off the weekly firework display.
