How To: Netflix And Chill (Properly)

Amidst endless controversies in our society, one of the biggest, if not the biggest, is how to properly Netflix and Chill. Now, if you go on any kind of social media or watch the news or don't live under a rock, you probably know what the phrase Netflix and Chill means (if not, feel free to Urban Dictionary it...). However, after much research, studies have shown a new way to Netflix and Chill has surfaced. Therefore, I would like to introduce you to the new and improved way to Netflix and Chill.

Disclaimer: Content may not be suitable for some children, animals, or those not subscribed to Netflix.

Step One: Return home or retire back to your dorm after a long day of work/classes. Unwind with a nice glass of wine, or a cheap bottle of water for those underage, broke college kids. Grab any snacks that you may need during the course of your Netflix and Chill time. This could be a long night.

Step Two: Clear that schedule. Grab a phone, calendar, planner, anything that you could use to clear your schedule. Netflix and Chilling is a very complicated and time-consuming process. It's important that you not be interrupted.

Step Three: Referring to the previous step, it is now time to send out a mass text message to all of the people that might possibly interrupt your Netflix and Chill time. It is recommended that you text friends, family (parents in particular), co-workers, bosses, roommates, etc. This includes updates from news apps and social media apps, even Tinder. The world can wait. You're about to Netflix and Chill. They'll understand.

Step Four: The one person that you definitely need nearby is that pizza man. Domino's is among the favorites because they deliver. If you have a dog at your disposal, now would be the appropriate time to gather that canine and carefully place him/her on your lap. It's very important that the dog be the most comfortable of all of the parties participating in this Netflix and Chill session, so that the dog will stay for the entire duration.

Step Five: While receiving your pizza from the pizza man, use this opportunity to cover all of the bodily necessities that may need to be satisfied while you're enjoying your Netflix and Chill. This includes using the bathroom, getting a drink of water, online shopping, texting back your boyfriend to leave you alone, locking your door because this will be a long night, etc. Let's be real, the next time you see daylight might be 48 hours from now.

Step Six: Finally, you are ready for Netflix and Chill. This may perhaps be the biggest decision you've made all week. In order to fully participate in and enjoy Netflix and Chill, you must choose a show that you will not turn off. Netflix and Chill guidelines ensure that reaching for the remote or mouse may be too strenuous for the body to handle during full penetration of Netflix and Chill.

Step Seven: Congratulations, you are now completely immersed in Netflix and Chill! It's been a long way coming and incredibly challenging on an internal level, but the results will pay off. Be sure to apply Netflix and Chill for approximately 12-24 hours. Any longer than that can be very dangerous to the body and mind, however, many choose to ignore this rule. Society has made it socially acceptable, so if your timing exceeds the stated time frame, there's no need for alarm. You are advised though to limit as much contact with the outside world as possible. Netflix and Chill is about you and you alone. However many brain cells you lose in the process cannot be blamed on anyone else. Enjoy!

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.
