My 5 Go-To Netflix Shows For This Holiday Season

With Christmas break upon us, it's suddenly the season for constant guilt-free Netflix binge sessions. To ring in the new season, here are my go to shows on Netflix.

5. The Crown

If you're a fan of royal scandals or you feel like you may have an old soul, I'd definitely recommend The Crown. After all, don't we all kind of dream about being a princess or queen or even to just marry into the Royal Family? (@Meghan Markle, you got lucky girl. I called dibs on Prince Harry anyways!!) This show gives a look at the life of Queen Elizabeth and just how much she's gone through along her very long reign. It's a great watch, and even better the new season came out this past week!



4. Stranger Things

Stranger Things is definitely one of those shows that you just gotta watch to realize you'll love it. It's probably one of the weirdest, nerdiest, coolest shows on Netflix, plus it's fairly new. With such an awesome cast (yes, that's Winona Ryder!), it's no wonder that everyone is buzzing about Stranger Things.

3. Grey's Anatomy


There are so many good and bad things about Grey's Anatomy. The love, the power, and the surgery. Not to mention the fact that Meredith Grey is the queen of monologues! Grey's Anatomy just screams, "Pick me. Choose me. Love me." Caution: Harnesses on the emotional roller coaster often don't work.

2. Gilmore Girls


Although this is my second choice, it takes #1 in my heart. Nothing will ever be able to replace the love and laughter of Rory and Lorelai Gilmore. Not only is the story line behind this show fantastic, but it's relatable in almost every aspect. Especially if you're a coffee lover(; If you're looking for a feel good time and minimal frustration, this is the show for you.

1. The Secret Life of the American Teenager

I don't know what it is, but TV shows that include both drama and romance are my absolute guilty pleasure. This one can definitely be considering an oldie considered it was back when ABC Family was still ABC Family (no one likes Freeform it's okay). The Secret Life of the American Teenager is about a teenager who gets knocked up at band camp one year after having sex for the first time. Her life is nothing but dull, and sometimes it gives you the feels. Shailene Woodley stars as Amy Jergens in this relatable teen drama.

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

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.
