10 Netflix Binges Completed, When I Should Have Been Completing My Homework
Emily Lydell

I am the binge queen. Even though it's an awful habit, I embrace it. It means I have the stamina to get through a lot of information and still enjoy what I'm watching. This is a list of TV shows that I have binge-watched throughout my junior year and highly recommend.

1. Criminal Minds

Watched all 12 seasons on Netflix between August and November. Even though this was one of the longer binges and more disturbing, totally worth it because Spencer Reid is adorable!

2. Arrested Development

Finished all 4 seasons in about 2 weeks. So many great moments. Hilarious!

3. Nailed It

There's only 1 season so naturally, I finished it in a day. The best episode is hands down the last episode, episode 6. Trump cake, that's all you need to know.

4. The Good Place

Also only 1 season on Netflix, so I also finished that in one day. I relate to Chidi so much. His indecisiveness is painful to watch.

5. Futurama

It is no longer on Netflix, but when it was, I watched seasons 3-7 in about 3 weeks. It was surprisingly hilarious and educational at the same time. Dr. Zoidberg is definitely my favorite character.

6. Big Mouth

Only 1 season, but I finished it in 3 days because the show is very strange. Watching animated characters experiencing puberty was such an awkward and weird experience, and very relatable to a certain degree. But I mostly watched it because of John Mulaney.

7. Bates Motel

Watched all 6 episodes in about 3 days. It was beautiful to watch. I learned so much about other animals! Who knew sloths could swim?

9. Altered Carbon

Even though there is only one season, this show took me a bit longer to finish, I finished it in about 4 days. It had some very cool concepts and very interesting storyline.

10. Mindhunters

This was my most recent binge. Finished the one season in a day! Woo! Right before finals too.

There are definitely more shows and movies that I have binged over the year, but these are definitely the most memorable. I hope you enjoy them as much as I did!

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
