5 Reasons Why Netflix Is Essential To Life
Steinar La Engeland

1. Are you bored between classes? Binge watch your favorite show!

We are all guilty of this. As soon as a class ends, we go back to our dorm, hop in bed, and click the next episode of our new favorite show this week. Yes, a week. If you binge watch, you finish a show in a week, sometimes even a day! Grey’s Anatomy, Scandal, Gossip Girl. These are just some of the shows I’ve been watching. The list goes on. You can never get bored watching your favorite show. It’s an addiction and thanks to Netflix, it goes right to the next episode when it finishes.

2. Do you feel like crying? Watch a chick flick!

We all get in those moods where we just wanna cry. So, we do depressing things like watch sad movies. Well, Netflix can help. You can pick from hundreds of chick flicks and romance movies that will melt your heart and bring you to tears. You’re welcome.

3. Can’t afford to go to the movie theatres? Netflix has free movies!

Why waste your money on a movie ticket when you have Netflix? You can watch all the movies on Netflix that your heart desires. You have plentiful options to choose from. It even gives you categories to pick from so you can narrow down your options.

4. Do you wanna stay in tonight? Netflix is the perfect escape!

We all have those nights where we decide we don’t wanna go out. But what else is there to do? Well, grab some popcorn and your comfiest blanket because Netflix has just about everything you wanna watch. If you’re not sure what to watch, it suggests shows/movies for you.

5. Tired of the same old shows on TV? Try Netflix Originals!

Netflix Originals are shows created by Netflix that you can’t watch anywhere else. Turns out, some of my favorite shows are Netflix Originals such as Orange is the New Black and Stranger Things.

P.S. if you haven't watched these, DO IT!

So, to conclude, thank you Netflix for being my addiction. You are always there for me. I can always depend on you to keep me busy and somewhat sane. You are my best friend and I love you.

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
