10 Reasons Why You Should Watch "Arrow"

Looking for a gruesome TV show with a strong plot line? Looking for attractive as fuck cast members to look forward to and fangirl with your friends over? Looking for lots of action/adventure/romance/dark scenes in a show?

There you have it! If you've answered "yes" to one or more of these questions, then you should definitely make your way over to Netflix and pick out "Arrow."

"Arrow" is a show about Green Arrow and how he became who he is – and how he made his way into the headlines. All in short, it's pretty much about the past he has to overcome to become who he is today. And no, his journey is not perfect at all.

Here are the 10 reasons why you should watch "Arrow."

1. It's very dark yet it gives a realistic depiction of what life really is.


Scene after scene, Arrow appears at the darkest of nights whenever anyone needs help. Sound familiar? Batman, much? (I can't help but love the darkest of humans). But the worlds of Batman and Arrow are great representations of the life that we live in. So much crime, but unfortunately, no hero in sight.

2. Who can resist Stephen Amell in his natural state?

That body of his though...who can resist? I also can't help but think about how much he had to practice to get those scenes perfect. Kudos to him for fitting the character well.

3. Arrow loves his friends.

This scene had me in tears. They were perfect together, but he knew she shouldn't go through a life of harm and danger for him. But she loves him too much to let him go. Arrow always knows what to say to make me feel bad for him.

4. The love Arrow has for his sister (nobody can top that).

He would go to hell more than once in order to protect his sister, knowing she wouldn't listen to him in the process as she didn't many times in the show. Smh, he was only trying to protect her from turning into a whole another person, as he has total experience of.

5. We can all relate to Arrow's identity crisis.

There were times in the show in which he just wanted to be real to himself and everyone around him, but as the arrow, he needs to solve crimes here and there. He can never relax, as we all have personal experience towards. *cough cough* *college work* *no sleep*

6. Arrow's fighting scenes.

This is just one of those minor action scenes. This isn't all he can do. How does an actor fit this role so perfectly?

7. Arrow's charm and determination as two people.

Okay, I guess that's an exaggeration on my part. His stubbornness sometimes gets him nowhere. But he's seen too much darkness, and it will just be best to let him be and figure it out.

8. When Arrow sulks.

Like Felicity, I'm just walking away...like no...not this time, Oliver! Not when the whole city depends on you! Just get on your feet again, we need you! (I need you to make watching this TV show worthwhile again!)

9. When Arrow gives up.

When he is not out fighting crimes, he is in his lair thinking up of plans. But there are those moments when Oliver does not want to do anything. And it is up to the fans to cheer him on and make him remember who he is in times of need. So, the more people watching this show, the better!

10. And finally, Arrow's team.

I mean, his team does change from season to season, due to members leaving and rejoining the team. But you gotta admit, his team is badass!

I doubt that you wouldn't want to watch the show after reading this list. Watch the show, and you will know that it is great and only great.

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.

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.

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.
