My 10 Favorite TV Shows

Because of my anxiety, I love to slip into worlds that aren't mine.

My 10 Favorite TV Shows
Carissa Cash

As most people that know me know, I am a very avid watcher of Netflix. Whether it be TV shows, movies, or - my favorite - horror movies, you can pretty much find me watching Netflix in my spare time. I find watching shows relaxing, and because of my anxiety, I love to slip into worlds that aren't mine. So, I figured I'd start a series of my own here on The Odyssey Online. This week, my article is about my favorite TV shows. Next week will be my favorite movies, and the week after that will be my favorite horror movies. I might continue this into my favorite Disney movies (etc.), but for now, here are my 10 all-time favorite TV shows (that you can find on Netflix, if you wish to also watch them).

1. "American Horror Story"

This show is not one for the faint of heart. It includes many adult themes, and I find it still giving me the creeps even as an 18-year-old. If you have a weak stomach or are easily freaked out, this isn't the show for you. However, if you're a freak like me and love scaring the crap out of yourself, WATCH THIS SHOW! Also, watch it because of Evan Peters. I love Evan Peters.

2. "Supernatural"

Surprise surprise. Anyone that knows me knows this show is my heart and soul. If this show ever gets canceled it will be the death of me. This show follows two brothers, Sam and Dean, on their quest to fight quite literally all kinds of evil. I highly recommend this one. (P.S. You'll have to push through Season 7. Season 7 sucks.)

3. "Grey's Anatomy"

Holy drama Batman. This is one of the most dramatic shows I have ever seen in my life and I love it to no end. If you like high-intensity medical shows, this is one for you. (P.S. Make sure to have a box of tissues next to you at all times.)

4. "Private Practice"

This show is a spin-off of "Grey's Anatomy," focused on the character Addison Forbes-Montgomery. Once again, an amazing high-intensity medical show. (P.S. You'll need tissues for this one as well.)

5. "Criminal Minds"

This show has been one of my favorites for a long, long time. I'm talking middle school, people. This show helped me solidify that I want to do something to help other people with my life. This show...I can't even find the words.

6. "Bones"

Another amazing crime show, this starring Temperance Brennan (Bones) and her FBI partner Seeley Booth. This show is incredibly suspenseful and I highly recommend it to any crime-show-lover.

7. "Sherlock"

This show follows famous crime-fighters Sherlock Holmes and John Watson in modern-day England. Once again, a very very suspenseful show. The acting in this show is amazing, and so are the plot twists. It's also good for a chuckle when you need one.

8. "Stranger Things"

"Stranger Things" is a supernatural themed show about three kids looking for their missing friend that I was introduced to by my roommate, Cassie. It's a Netflix original, and all I can say is that I'm anxiously awaiting Season 2.

9. "The Walking Dead"

"The Walking Dead," as most of you know, is a show set in the zombie apocalypse, and I can do nothing but sing the highest praises to this show. If you haven't yet gotten the chance, I highly suggest you sit down and binge-watch it (with tissues of course).

10. "Pretty Little Liars"

My final favorite show is "Pretty Little Liars," which many people can't stand, but I find to be fascinating, mostly because I'm always trying to find out what happens next. If you like suspense, you'll love this show.

That's all I have for this week, but I'm super excited to share my favorite movies next week! Seriously, check out these shows, they're amazing.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

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.
