Penny Dreadful? More Like Worth My Pennies

It's a pun you see, since Netflix costs a whole bunch of pennies and I'm trying to sell Penny Dreadful as the next show you should bingewatch... I thought it was funny

Penny Dreadful? More Like Worth My Pennies
ScreenRant

Dear lookers of new Netflix series and anyone else who is reading this article,

Still in the Halloween spirit despite it being the second week of November? Don't worry- I'm not here to judge but to provide you with the perfect Netflix series to satiate those spooky feels!

If you like the supernatural and Victorian classics such as Frankenstein and The Picture of Dorian Grey, then you are going to love Penny Dreadful. What is "Penny Dreadful", you ask? Well, the term penny dreadful refers to a cheap, sensational novel brimming with adventure, crime, or violence; which I suppose in a way also summarizes Penny Dreadful, which features a team of badass individuals fighting demons in both the physical world and internally. Monsters, such as vampires and witches the Frankenstein's creation lurk in the era of gas lamps in a fog-filled London setting. While not all of the characters are directly taken from great works of literature, they do provide the backbone to this spine-chilling, mesmerizing series. Plus there's an awesome pun about a werewolf in London (sorry kind of a spoiler alert).

You pay a lot of pennies for Netflix so go watch this Penny Dreadful because you will not be disappointed.

Sincerely a girl who is desperately waiting for these next 2 weeks to go by so that she can finish the series with her boyfriend (distance sucks bc of waiting to finish good Netflix series)

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.

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.
