2 Adult Swim Cartoons To Ease Your Mind
msecnd.net

The world is a scary place right now with all the political corruption and military threats. I personally know how difficult it can be to find distractions from how real and close to home those threats really are. However, with a little help from some mind-numbing television, it's easier than we tend to think. In no way am I saying to ignore the news or to not be informed about the world around us (it's especially important in case of something serious happening), but stressing out about things if they don't directly affect you quite yet never helps any situation. Be prepared, but take a mental break and check out Rick and Morty and Bob's Burgers.

1. "Rick and Morty"

Ahhh, there's nothing better than reverting back to your childhood self and watching Saturday morning cartoons. Except you can watch them whenever online. And they've grown up a lot. Like, A LOT. Rick and Morty, an Adult Swim series focused on Morty, a twelve-year-old boy who travels through space and other dimensions with his mad genius/scientist for a grandfather, Rick. With plenty of societal satire and sexual innuendos, the Rick and Morty's travels are sure to get at least a few chuckles out of you even if this isn't your style of humor. Despite the otherworldly problems that Rick and Morty face, their family also faces very real problems in marriage and in raising children correctly, but all in a very dysfunctional and humorous light. Kick your feet back, numb your mind, maybe lose a few brain cells, and travel to places such as Gazorpazorp and Rick's friend's insides for a fun and sometimes disturbing time.

2. "Bob's Burgers"

Bob just wants to make burgers at his burger joint that has been re-opened numerous times which can be seen in the show's title sequence. Set in New Jersey (figured most likely because of Linda's accent), this dysfunctional family of five knows how to get weird. There's the already mentioned Bob, who just wants to make his burgers, and his wife Linda, who is known to set up the Christmas tree the day after Halloween and name the raccoon who digs through the trash in the alley El Diablo. Their three children include Tina, a girl with awkward social skills and a notoriety for making strange noises, Louise, known for her pink hat and love for causing trouble, and Gene, the youngest, known for fighting with Louise and making strange remarks. Their dysfunctional family is known for causing mayhem together and getting into fights, but at the end of they day, they all come together in some strange way or another and wind up teaching an odd yet valuable lesson. Again, you might kill off a few brain cells, but at least you'll be laughing while doing it.

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.

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.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
