Which TV Show Should You Binge-Watch Next?

What to do this spring break? Start your final papers. Catch up on laundry. Spend time with family.

Let's be honest, we all know there is only one thing on your mind this break. Netflix and Hulu and PJ's and junk food. OK, four things. But you just finished your fave TV show -- what do you do now?

Here are some suggestions of shows that I have finished and that I highly recommend.

For the girl with guilty pleasures:


If you have sat up late at night watching the Kardashians, or "Dance Moms," or anything else that you have likely been teased for watching, I highly recommend watching "The Hills." It's is a reality television series that originally aired on MTV from May 31, 2006 until July 13, 2010. Yes, it was that long ago. The series aired six seasons and followed the personal and professional lives of Lauren, Heidi and Audrina, who are living in Los Angeles, California. I'm watching it currently and it's definitely binge-worthy!

Where to watch it: Hulu

How many seasons?: Seasons 2-6 are available on Hulu

Similar to: "Keeping Up with The Kardashians," "The Real World," "Real Housewives"

For the family-oriented girl:

If you're a girl who loves her mamma, then you've probably already fallen in love with Lauren Graham from "Gilmore Girls." If you haven't, stop reading this article and get to watching it before the revival. And if you have finished the series, then I suggest you watch "Parenthood" and see Lauren Graham kill it again. The show tells of the Braverman clan, which is an older couple, their four children and their families. One of the grandchildren depicted has Asperger's syndrome. There's also a teen pregnancy and several other problems that the Bravermans tackle throughout the series. My Mom and I fell in love with the series and were heartbroken when it ended. Besides Lauren Graham, there are a bunch of incredibly talented actors. Also, the show has a noteworthy soundtrack.

Where to watch it: Netflix

How many seasons?: 1-6

Similar to: "Friday Night Lights," "Gilmore Girls," "Modern Family"

For the drama queen:

Do you love a good tear-jerker? Do you easily fall in love with characters? Then this show is for you. I stumbled across "Life Unexpected." Lux had been stranded in the Oregon Foster System for 15 years and she decided to attempt becoming an emancipated minor. She reaches out to her birth parents -- her father never knew she was born and her mother, a radio talk show host, was shocked to hear from her. The judge decides that Lux isn't ready to be emancipated and grants temporary custody to her birth parents. I'm obsessed with these characters. You'll be too!

Where to watch it: Netflix

How many seasons?: 2

Similar to: "Switched at Birth," "One Tree Hill," "90210"

For the girl who is desperately waiting for the next season of "Fuller House:"


Who doesn't love a good throwback? Growing up, my mom made me fall in love with this classic. Welcome to the halls of Bayside High. "Saved by the Bell" focuses on the lives of six Bayside High School students. It's a hilarious show that is timeless and can be enjoyed by people from all different generations. The first episode aired in 1989, but the fan base has continued to grow since then.

Where to watch it: Netflix

How many seasons?: 6

Similar to: "Boy Meets World," "Fresh Prince of Bel-Air," "Full House"

There's no better time than the present, so get watching!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
