My Top 5 Guilty Pleasure Reality TV Shows

Because it is totally okay to escape from your own reality.

Watching reality TV is definitely a guilty pleasure for many. It is nice to be able to watch someone else's life and not worry about the stresses of your own for an episode a week. Here are some of my favorite reality TV shows to watch, maybe you might give them a try!

1. 'The Bachelor.' 

'The Bachelor' gives us a look into an unconventional way of falling in love. While it is a beautiful thing to watch before our eyes, the show also highlights what gets the most attention: the drama. The drama takes over the show every season, which only hypes up the fans. Social media is on fire following every single episode and keeps the fans watching. But in the end, it is amazing to see two people (our twenty fine) exploring love.

2. 'Big Brother.' 

If you have never seen 'Big Brother,' you are in for a real treat. This show is comprised of so many different challenges. There are physical, mental, and even emotional challenges that sixteen individuals go through while they are stuck in a house with complete strangers. The goal is simple: to stay in the house. It is so interesting to watch the different strategies game players go in with and to see who comes out on top.

3. 'Below Deck.' 

'Below Deck' gives a different spin to typical reality TV shows. They dive into the lives of private charter employees. We get to see the ins and outs of private charters, especially the drama on the ship. You have drama between those working on the ship as well as mishaps that happen with the charter guests. I love getting to see the beautiful places they travel to and getting updates on who is mad at who and who ignored the guest's preference sheet!

4. 'Ex on the Beach.' 

This show I would say is a combination of all reality shows. A group of social media or TV stars are living at a beach house together and expect to be simply finding love. However, they get shocked to find out that every week, some of them will have exes coming into the house. TALK ABOUT AWKWARD! Seeing the exes and waves caused every week keeps you on the edge of your seat.

5. 'Jersey Shore.' 

This is quite the throwback but this is a classic. I would say 'Jersey Shore' is the first reality show I ever watched. It will always be my go-to on Hulu to watch if I ever need a laugh. The bond these roommates have formed kept me watching but the moments they shared with the public are what kept it interesting. These roommates are the definition of dysfunction and it got better and better with every season.

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.

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.
