1. Black Mirror

If you haven't started this series yet you are truly missing out on great cinematography and intensely unique story lines that will thrill and shock you.I recommend beginning with episode two, episode one of the first season is a little difficult to stomach. The series emphasizes the issues that can arise in a high tech dystopia.

2. Chewing Gum

If you were raised Christian and remember your parent's awkward lectures on "urges" then you'll relate to Tracey. She's an average girl with an intensely Christian mother. All Tracey wants is a nice boyfriend who'll make her feel sexy and wanted (God forbid.) Who will win: The power of Jesus Christ or Tracey's Hormones? Watch the first season on Netflix now!

3. iZombie

Ok, so the premise for this show is, well, it's really stupid, but hear me out. Super smart, super pretty, super normal girl on her way to finishing her residency goes to a party and becomes a zombie. But she's not your typical rampage and gore Zombie, she's sophisticated. Plus, she uses her ability to see the memories of the deceased to find their murders bringing them to justice. I know, very dumb, but the writers do a great job of pacing the show murder-mystery style and they keep the science believable. So, if you're obsessed with Zombies or can't resist a murder-mystery then check this out.

4. Spartacus

Yes, I am aware that this show is pretty old. But what better way to recover your brain from finals than with completely meaningless gore, lots of steamy scenes, and ridiculously gorgeous people all crammed into a show about the most epic slave rebellion of all time! You know you watch on it on Netflix!

5. Mad Men

If you have not seen this show you are missing out a key insight into current and past political American culture. Also the drama on this show will have you in shock. There is never a dull moment in this imaginary rendition of the office that shaped advertising forever.

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?

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.
