Stop increasing prices.

It seems like at least once a year, Netflix increases it's prices yet again. Its prices reached an all-time high back in January of this year. Monthly memberships now range from $8.99 to $15.99 a month, depending on how many devices you want to allow to use the account at the same time. It makes it challenging to be able to afford one's own Netflix account. Allegedly, Netflix wants to crack down on password sharing in certain places to make sure only people living in the same household have a family account, as stated in their policy.

Offer student discounts and/or make memberships cheaper.

I have seen a variety of entertainment-related student discounts offered which can really help save precious money. I have seen discounts for Apple Music, Spotify Premium, and Hulu just to name a few. With monthly membership prices increasing at least yearly on average, and no means for a student to get a discount on said membership, it is amazing for a college-age person to be able to afford it.

Be available for download on Nintendo Switch.

Netflix is available to download on Apple and Android devices such as iPhones and iPads. The app is also available to use on your computer/laptop. You can even download it on many current and last generation gaming consoles such as Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Wii U. However, it has yet to be a thing for the Nintendo Switch. The Nintendo Wii and Wii U both have Netflix, yet the Switch does not yet. I mean The Switch has Hulu and YouTube, so hopefully, it will only be a matter of time before it makes its debut on the Nintendo Switch. It can get annoying going from one console to another simply because of switching which entertainment app I want to use.

Send notifications when stuff is leaving Netflix.

I get other different notifications such as recommended and new stuff to watch, but there has yet to be notifications as to when stuff leaves Netflix. It would be nice to not find out the hard way if and when tv shows and moves are no longer viewable on Netflix. I miss being able to watch stuff like Police Academy.

Please stop asking if we are still watching.

The chances are pretty good that I am still binge-watching whatever I have been watching for the last several episodes. Do not judge me. Seriously.

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:

New England Summers Are The BEST Summers

Why you should spend your next summer in New England.

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.

75 degrees and sunny, plus, no humidity. I mean do I really need to say more?

Perfect Weather

You'll get an effortless tan

You can exercise with a view

You don't have to worry about bug bites

In n Out all day, every day

We have outdoor concerts

We live where people vacation

Because let's be honest, we all use lyrics.

1. “Don’t get too close, it’s dark inside. It's where my demons hide.”

2. “Tonight, we are young.”

3. “Cuz I may be bad, but I’m perfectly good at it.”

4. “Tell me how they got that pretty little face on that pretty little frame.”

5. “I can’t wait to fall in love with you, you can’t wait to fall in love with me.”

6. “Sweatpants, hair tied, chillin with no makeup on.”

7. “Why you so obsessed with me?”

8. “We ain’t ever getting older.”

9. “I didn’t know that I was starving until I tasted you.”

10. “Didn’t they tell you I’m a savage?"

11. “I’m gonna make you miss me.”

12. "Cheers to the freakin weekend.”

13. “Love’s a game. Wanna play?”

14. “You don’t know about me, but I bet you want to.”

15. “Let’s set each other’s lonely nights, Be each other’s paradise.”

16. “Trippin’ on skies, sippin’ waterfalls."

17. “Wish we could turn back time, to the good old days.”

18. “But you will remember me for centuries.”

19. “Something about you makes me feel like a dangerous woman."

20. “Don’t act like it’s a bad thing to fall in love with me.”

21. “Darling, I’m a nightmare dressed like a daydream.”

22. “Find me where the wild things are.”

23. “I’m high on lovin’ you.”

24. “If you’re gonna be somebody’s heartbreak, somebody’s mistake, if you’re gonna be somebody’s first time, somebody’s last time, be mine.”

25. “Don’t be afraid to take the road less traveled on.”

Everything Bruce says in his classic rock songs.

1. "Talk about a dream Try to make it real You wake up in the night With a fear so real Spend your life waiting For a moment that just don't come Well don't waste your time waiting." (Badlands)

2. "It's a town full of losers/ I'm pulling out of here to win" (Thunder Road)

3. "You've got to learn to live with what you can't rise above" (Tunnel of Love)

4. "I got something in my heart/ I been waitin' to give/ I got a life I wanna start/ One I been waitin' to live" (Leah)

5. “God have mercy on the man/ Who doubts what he’s sure of” (Brilliant Disguise)

7. “Is a dream a lie when it don’t come true, or is it something worse?” (The River)

Why you should spend your next summer in New England.
