My Take On 13 Reasons Why

The second season let me down in ways I wasn’t expecting.

Warning: this article may contain spoilers for the second season if 13 Reasons Why.

I just finished watching 13 Reasons Why this weekend, and I had mixed feelings about it.

Part of me enjoyed the second season because it gave respect to the fact that there are two sides to every story. The first season was all about Hannah’s story and how she felt, but the second season gives perspectives of the people from the story. You tend to find out that there was often more to the story that was not mentioned.

Like I said, part of me liked this because it’s true that there are two sides to every story. However, I also feel like this season took away from Hannah’s story. Yeah, there was more to it than what she included in the tapes. But at the end of the day, she was harassed by so many people physically or verbally. She deserved to let her voice be heard, even when it really couldn’t be heard anymore.

I was really happy with the first season. I think it did a great job of showing how people’s actions can influence another life, and how cruelty really (excuse my language), really fucking hurts.

However, I hate how the second season twisted Hannah’s story and turned things against her. I hate how they turned even people like me, a girl who personally loved her, to the dark side of hating her and questioning her intentions. Even though these feelings were brief for me, I still don’t like that I felt them.

While the second season was thrilling, entertaining, and shocking at times, it disappointed me with how they shifted the show. I would have been happier if they had wrapped things up at the end of season one and let it be.

I know many people have different beliefs and opinions about this show, but this one is just mine. You don’t have to agree, I just hope you respect it.

All my love,

Kamille

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.
