The Emotional Stages Of Binge-Watching An Entire TV Show

We’ve all done it. Sometimes you just have to stop everything in your life to binge-watch an entire TV series in three days. While, of course, there’s the inevitable regret at your ability to waste hours of your life in front of a screen, there are a lot of other emotions that come with binge-watching an entire show.

1. Excitement


They just added the show that you’ve been dying to watch.

2. Happiness


It's so good!

3. Annoyance



This one is for your friends. Not only have you ditched them to continue your binge, but the few times that they see you, it’s all that you talk about. Fortunately, they let it go and hope that your obsession will soon pass.

4. Obsession


It doesn't pass. You're halfway in and you can’t stop now.

5. Realization


How long have you been watching this show for?

6. Questioning


All of your life choices suddenly seem like mistakes.

7. Longing For Nature


Going outside seems like a good idea.

8. Addiction


Your plans to go outside lasted until you remembered that your new show is awesome.

9. Sadness


Before you know it, you're watching the last episode.

10. Acceptance


You return to society, slightly regretting the lack of productivity over the past 11 days.


11. Fondness


You now have a new fondness for an entire world of people whose names and lives you will eventually forget. At least it was fun while it lasted.

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.
