Netflix Saved My Life

Netflix Saved My Life
What's On Netflix

Netflix has saved my life. When the world is crashing in on me and I'm stressed to the max, I turn on my laptop, go to Netflix, click my favorite show at the time and bam all my worries start melting away.

Every time I'm bored I watch Netflix. When I'm in the mood for a scary movie? Netflix. A romantic movie? Netflix. Need to know something for school? There are a ton of educational documentaries on Netflix! Don't feel like interacting with people? That's okay! Turn all the lights down, get in bed and watch Netflix! Layover/ Flight delayed? Have no fear Netflix is here!

They say laughter is the best medicine but I disagree. In my opinion, Netflix is the best medicine.

It's the most genius technology of our age. No commercials and thousands of movies and shows that are made available to us at the click of a button. Some may call it dangerous because it has the potential to waste time, I, on the other hand, call it amazing.

What a time to be alive am I right people? I can't tell you how many times I was bored or my plans got canceled and I wasn't even mad because I knew I could just "watch my shows" (as my parents like to say) on Netflix instead. People don't go outside anymore and that's okay!! Who needs fresh air, green grass, and social interaction when you can binge watch Grey's Anatomy on Netflix instead!

Don't want to pay a monthly fee? That's alright, Netflix is so popular you are bound to know someone who has a username and password you can borrow. What? That's illegal you say? Really who checks these things? In my opinion, it's a gray area.

Now let's talk about these Netflix originals. I mean gee wiz are real time TV networks even trying anymore? My guess is that the big guys at networks like NBC, TBS, and FX took one look at Stranger Things and threw their hands up in defeat.

I would like to personally thank you Netflix for saving my life. You are always there for me when Hulu and Crackle aren't. Never change and please, please, never leave.

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.
