Streaming services are a must to surviving college. Whether you're a Netflix or a Hulu fan, there's very few activities that allow students to wind down from a stressful day like a good binge session of your favorite TV series.

But deciding which series to watch is one of the hardest decisions a person will make. With literally endless different options, finding the perfect show to simultaneously entertain and destress you is a tall challenge. In college, time is precious and it should not be wasted on a mediocre binge session.

The Office

The Office is one of those shows you simply can't go wrong with. From the hilarious dialogue to the relatable scenes, this series is one that everyone can get behind. No matter who you are or what genre of entertainment is your go-to, The Office is a nice comedic relief to your jam packed college schedules.

Gossip Girl

It may be geared towards teenage girls, but Gossip Girl is an iconic classic that should not be underrated. Compared to the teens lives on the Upper East Side, you'll feel like the drama in your life is so miniscule. If you need a little ego-boost, after watching a few episodes of this show, you'll feel incredibly on top of your life.

Stranger Things

If you're in a darker mood, Stranger Things is a beloved classic that will certainly satisfy your inner twisted soul. Some have argued that this is the best television show ever created, so you really can't go wrong. This creepy plot will make you instantly forget about all the worries of your classes.

At the end of the day, it doesn't really matter what you watch as long as it's something you enjoy. Taking time for yourself is so important, even if it means spending a little less time studying for that upcoming exam than you probably should.

Ultimately, giving yourself a break can make you a more productive student in the long run. It may seem redundant, but allowing yourself to have a mental break from the paper writing and quiz taking will make the hours you spend in the library more effective. So do yourself a favor and turn on your favorite series, you won't regret it.

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.
