The 6 Stages of  Watching Riverdale
Mackenzie Webb

If you love drama and mystery packed into one show, then Riverdale is the show for you. With a couple of fiery red heads and some snooping mystery-solving teenagers, this show is one you'll want to binge watch until the season comes to an end. While watching each episode you're put through various stages of how you feel towards the show and characters themselves. This is what makes the show so easily watchable and such a crowd favorite.

1. Excitement

It's 6:59 just one minute before the show begins every Wednesday night on the CW, and all of your excitement is building up in anticipation for what might happen on tonights' episode. you are hosting a viewing party as always, and everyone is feeling the excitement for what is about to happen. Who might kill who, or who will snoop where, and most interesting, what will be uncovered on this episode of Riverdale?

2. The Opening Scene

It's now 7:03 and the opening scene has just finished up and already three minutes in you are sucked into watching this show even though you know you have tests to study for, and projects to complete.

3. Mysteries begin to unravel.

Quickly approaching are the mysteries that you've been waiting to hear every detail about. This is when we find out who possibly could've done that, or better yet how did they do it. These moments are those you must turn the volume to its highest to hear every word and sound that is spoken.

4, Halfway through, and there's still more?!

This is the point in the show which you look at your best friend next to you and say, "How on earth is there still more?" You think at this point the show might slow down because mysteries have been solved. Low and behold A new mystery has just been introduced and you know this one will leave you hanging until next week's episode.

5. Coming to a close

It's nearing the last 5 minutes of the episode and you start to develop a mix of sadness and fear for what might happen. Or will this leave you out to dry until next weeks episode? Only time will tell in the show that is Riverdale. However, beware because sadness might occur due to the fact that you must wait a full week until you get to watch this amazing show again.

6. Until next week Riverdale.

The TV is turned off, the snacks are being put away, and all of your viewing party has left the building. This is when the end really begins to set in and you start to cope with reality. With that said, after a riveting episode of Riverdale you are ready for bed in hopes that sleeping might bring the next episode quicker.

With this said, Riverdale has quickly become one of my favorite TV shows, and I (clearly) look forward to it every Wednesday at 7 p.m. Also, Dynasty which airs directly after Riverdale has become a routine as well for when you're just not quite ready for bed.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.
