10 New Release Shows To Binge-Watch On Netflix This Break
http://www.buzzfeed.com/

School's out! Winter break means catching up on sleep, spending time with loved ones, being thankful for life's blessings....and binge-watching shows on Netflix. Finding quality new shows can be a challenge sometimes, especially when searching through the endless abyss that is Netflix. On the other hand, googling for "new shows on Netflix" usually brings up a long list of mediocre television shows with terrible reviews, or old shows you've already watched three times over. To get a head start on this holiday's binge-watching marathon, ten newly released shows on Netflix have been hand-picked for your viewing pleasure! Read on to find your next Netflix obsession.

1. "Master of None"

For any fan of Aziz Ansari, or comedy in general, this is a must-binge-watch show! In this popular new sitcom, Ansari's character, Dev Shah, struggles to make decisions in his personal and professional life.

2. "Jessica Jones"

Another Netflix original series based in New York, "Jessica Jones" steers us away from Anzari's lighter comedy and towards the darker, crime-filled world of Marvel. After a tragedy ends her days as a superhero, Jessica Jones opens her own detective agency. Using her skills as a private eye, Jones works to find her tormentor before he harms another citizen of Hell's Kitchen.

3. "Cristela"

This is a fun show for anyone who can sympathize with wanting to following your dreams, even when family may not support you. While attempting to achieve the American dream, Cristela is hindered by her traditional Mexican-American family, who believe her goals are too lofty. While she struggles to bring together her traditional roots and her modern ambitions, the journey is full of joy and laughter.

4. "Girlfriends' Guide to Divorce"

After making her way as an author of self-help books and a guru to people with family troubles, Abby McCarthy's career screeched to a halt when the world found out she had separated from her husband. "Girlfriends' Guide to Divorce" follows McCarthy as she works to salvage her career and find her way in the world as a single woman.

5. "Gotham"

Any fan of Batman has to binge-watch "Gotham," if they haven't already! A prequel series, "Gotham" reveals how the heroes (and villains) of Gotham City got their start.

6. "Narcos"

The third Netflix original series on this list, "Narcos" is a gritty drama following the rise and fall of Colombian kingpin Pablo Escobar and the DEA agents hunting him. Told from the points of view of Escobar himself, as well as DEA Agent Steve Murphy, "Narcos" gives insight into opposing sides of what would later become a full-out war.

7. "Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt"

"Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt" is another new, and popular, Netflix original series. A lighthearted comedy about a girl who is living life outside of a cult for the first time in 15 years, Kimmy Schmidt is a quirky, lovable character you just can't resist.

8. "Phineas and Ferb"

Although the much-loved show, "Phineas and Ferb," is not new to our television sets, it is new to Netflix! The show follows the incredible adventures and genius of Phineas and his step-brother, Ferb, as the two determine to make every day of summer fun. Although their older sister attempts daily to reveal the brothers' high-jinks to their parents, she is thwarted time and time again!

9. "NCIS"

Another show which we've dedicatedly watched for years, but is new to Netflix, "NCIS" follows a team of special agents as they solve homicides of naval officers. "NCIS" was specially made for any fan of crime-solving shows!

10. "Madam Secretary"

Newly appointed Secretary of State Elizabeth McCord struggles to balance her responsibilities in politics as well as family. The show follows foreign conflicts, gives insight into international affairs, and reveals a behind the scenes look at the duties of the Secretary of State.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

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.
