Eight Shows to Check Out on Netflix

Unfortunately the summer has officially ended, which means we're back at school and in need of Netflix shows to watch while we procrastinate. If you're like me, and every other college student I've ever met, Netflix is an extremely important part of life. Not having a show to watch on Netflix is the absolute worst. So as you find yourself lounging around putting off an assignment, here are some shows you should definitely check out.

1. One Tree Hill

One Tree Hill is my favorite show of all time and if you haven't seen it, you definitely need to. Once you get into it, you become so invested in the characters and their relationships that it's unreal. It's super relatable watching the characters go from teenagers into adulthood, while they each face something that you can connect to.

2. Gilmore Girls

When I heard Gilmore Girls was coming to Netflix I got so excited. I used to watch this show on ABC Family everyday after school with my mom. I have such love for the main characters, Lorelai and Rory, and I think any woman can easily relate to both of them. Their mother-daughter relationship is so great to see and you will quickly fall in love with both of them.

3. Gossip Girl

I thought I wasn't going to like Gossip Girl, but then I started watching it. Once you start it, you'll be hooked for life. It's crazy to watch the super glamorous lifestyles that these teenagers live and the drama that they all face. This show is crazy and entertaining and relatable even if you're not a sixteen year old multi-millionaire.

4. Grey's Anatomy

I feel like everyone who watches this show is convinced that they could become a surgeon, but that just goes to show how much people connect with this series. I gave in and finally started watching last year and it was a great decision. This show will make you laugh and cry all while keeping you super entertained.

5. Hart of Dixie

I have been a huge fan of Rachel Bilson all the way back since her days on The O.C. Hart of Dixie is an adorable series that follows Rachel's character, Zoe, from New York City to Blue Bell, Alabama. This is a show that doesn't require too much brain power to watch, it's just mindless entertainment that never fails to make me smile.

6. Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt

This Netflix original series is crazy, hilarious, and unlike any other show out there. Kimmy's character is extremely quirky and funny to watch. Plus the theme song will get stuck in your head for days because it's so catchy.

7. Parks and Recreation

I've loved Amy Poehler since her days on SNL so getting into "Parks and Rec" was super easy for me. It's very similar to The Office, so if you are a fan of that show, than this one is for you. You are also going to fall in love with Aziz Ansari because he is hilarious.

8. The Vampire Diaries

This show is like my guilty pleasure because it is slightly embarrassing to say I watch. Regardless, this show is a lot better than I thought it was going to be and it is really easy to get hooked on. It's much different than other vampire type shows, and in my opinion, much more original.

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.
