Netflix and Procrastinate

If you’re going to procrastinate, you might as well watch something decent.

We’ve all been there – 7pm Thursday night, a ton of homework left to do, and you just… Can’t. Well, if you’re seeking something to watch while you have your unfinished English paper in the background, here are five suggestions from none other than yours truly:

1. Bones

If you’re like me and love crime procedural dramas, this show is a must watch. Based on the life of forensic anthropologist Kathy Reichs, the series follows forensic anthropologist Dr. Temperance “Bones” Brennan, FBI Special agent Seeley Booth, and their team of analysts as they work together to solve FBI cases.

2. Criminal Minds

In a similar vein as ‘Bones’, ‘Criminal Minds’ is a police procedural drama that focuses on the cases that the FBI’s Behavioral Analysis Unit (BAU) solves. However, it is significantly less gory than ‘Bones’, as it is not based in a lab, and it focuses on developing a profile to narrow down the possible perpetrators of the crime.

3. Young & Hungry

If you’re into rom-coms, you’ll love this sitcom starting Emily Osment. In this series, she portrays a woman named Gabi Diamond, who is a personal chef to millionaire Josh Kaminski. The show follows their relationship as it changes from professional, friendly, physical, romantic, and everything in between. The show is hilarious and viewers will be on the edge of their seat waiting for Gabi and Josh to DTR.

4. Clueless


This movie is a must see for any young woman. It became a personal favorite of mine in my sophomore year of high school. The movie revolves around a sixteen-year-old girl, Cher, as she navigates friendships, school, and even a complicated romance. The movie, despite being from 1995, is hilarious, and is an excellent “pick-me-up” after a rough day.

5. American Horror Story

If there was ever a binge-worthy series on Netflix, it’s definitely AHS. Each season explores a different realm of American horror with a new set of characters. And, with each new season, it becomes clear that they are all connected… Somehow. The mystery and element of surprise not only in each episode, but in and inbetween each season sucks the viewer in and keeps them wanting more.

Enjoy!*

*Not that I endorse procrastination, by the way.

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.
