Sometimes you just really need a study break and to treat yo' self to some relaxation time! And a great way to do this is through Netflix! Below are some of my favorite shows and ones I recommend if you just really need that break.

1. "New Girl" 

"New Girl" is my most recent obsession. Between the amazing chemistry and the cast, the funny one-liners, and crazy events this show is quickly one of the most entertaining things to watch. It also is one of those that you don't need to watch every episode in order to understand. I had seen a few episodes here and there and then just started watching the third season last week and I haven't stopped laughing since.

2. "Queer Eye" 

This is not quite the same as one of those 25 minute shows you can watch anytime as these episodes are typically about 50 minutes. But this show is workload SO good. It is 5 queer guys who make over straight men in 5 different areas: food, fashion, house, social, and physical makeovers. Each of the guys are so funny and loveable, not to mention that this show is quite emotional as each episode pulls you in with a story and a new regular person to root for! It's a great study break pass time.

3. "Friends" 

This show is a classic. It's easily the most rewatchable show I've ever seen. It doesn't matter if I've seen an episode once or ten times, I still laugh every single time and can pick it up and watch it anytime. It's a 10/10 recommend if you catch yourself stressing too much about school and just need a little break.

4. "Parks and Recreation"

This show is my favorite show of all time. Not only is it hilarious it also has characters that you genuinely root for and fall in love with and within the hilarity of each show there is also character development, a solid plot line, and just a family of people that you wish the very best for. I could watch this show anytime and be so content. If you haven't seen it it's a must add. And, not to ruffle up any feathers-- but it's better than "The Office."

5. "Atypical" 

This show might not be a study break, get your mind off everything type show but it's certainly a good one to watch. It is a Netflix Original about a teenage boy with autism. It's a story about him and the challenges he faces at high school as well as at home with his very dynamic family. Netflix just dropped the second season, and I highly recommend watching this show from the beginning. It's truly heartwarming and just a good one.

Hope all y'all out there are surviving in the workload! Remember grades are important, but sometimes you need to take a break and I hope now you have some options of what to watch in that break! :)

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.

Winter break is over, we're all back at our respective colleges, and the first week of classes is underway. This is a little bit how that week tends to go.

The professor starts to go over something more than the syllabus

You get homework assigned on the first day of class

There are multiple group projects on the syllabus

You learn attendance is mandatory and will be taken every class

Professor starts chatting about their personal life and what inspired them to teach this class

Participation is mandatory and you have to play "icebreaker games"

Everybody is going out because its 'syllabus week' but you're laying in bed watching Grey's Anatomy

Looking outside anytime past 8 PM every night of this week

Nobody actually has any idea what's happening this entire week

Syllabus week is over and you realize you actually have to try now...or not

Now it's time to get back into the REAL swing of things. Second semester is really here and we all have to deal with it.

Whether you specialized in ringing people up or preparing the food, if you worked at Panera Bread it holds a special place in your heart. Here are some signs that you worked at Panera in high school.

1. You own so many pairs of khaki pants you don’t even know what to do with them

Definitely the worst part about working at Panera was the uniform and having someone cute come in. Please don’t look at me in my hat.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.
