9 Reasons To Watch 'That '70s Show'

College is hard, and every once in a while, we need a distraction from the bookwork and exams. Netflix is the perfect escape, but some of the shows can be pretty intense. In the midst of midterms, you need a series that can make you laugh until you cry as you mindlessly watch it. That ’70s Show does just that, and you’ll even grow attached to the characters as the seasons go by. With their unique personalities and unfortunate mishaps, you will never want to stop watching.

1. Eric Forman

The definition of awkward, but you gotta love him. He constantly worries about the wrath of his dad, while trying to win over and keep the girl of his dreams. If you are constantly “burned” by your friend group, then you will definitely be able to relate to Eric.

2. Jackie Burkhart

You know that person in your group of friends who no one really likes? Well, that’s her. Played by Mila Kunis, Jackie is incredibly spoiled, condescending, and controlling over her men. Her crazy antics are almost hilarious, and by the end of the first season, you’ll want her to stay around. After all, she is fabulous!

3. Michael Kelso

Oh Kelso…he has the heart of child and also, the brain. He loves puppies and “doing it.” Ashton Kutcher plays this character, so you won’t mind staring at him during each episode.

4. Steven Hyde

Everyone needs a friend who isn’t afraid to tell it like it is. He has an incredibly dry and sarcastic sense of humor, which is only reinforced by his delinquency and mindset that the government is corrupt. He has spent his fair share of time in “the circle” and is often the supplier for the group.

5. Donna Pinciotti

“Hot Donna” or “Lumberjack” according to Jackie. She’s more masculine than Eric, but all the boys want her. She’s a feminist in the 70's, but still likes to have a good time.

6. Fez

The foreign exchange student who has “needs.” The group takes him in under their wing and puts up with his cluelessness about how to act in this country. You never learn where he is originally from, but it sounds like a scary place.

7. Kitty Forman

The sweetest little lady until she starts to go through menopause. She is Eric’s mom and never wants to see him grow up.

8. Red Forman

He has the classic line of, “I’m going to put my foot into your ass” and phrases it in multiple ways. Red is your typical angry dad, as he his always yelling at everybody; however, his soft side comes through during certain moments of the show, especially if they involve beer.

9. Leo

Hey man…come on man! Woah man…

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

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.
