8 Popular Shows That Should Be In Your Netflix Queue If They Aren't Already

I know I write a lot about TV shows, but that's kind of all I've been doing this summer: watching TV shows and movies because I hate the outdoors. Is that a bad thing? Maybe. But bugs have never been my friend and I get sunburnt walking from my house to my car, so I choose to hide from the heat and the sun and watch TV.

Also, please note, these shows are relatively popular so you might've already seen them, but just roll with it.

1. The Office

Giphy

Classic. Everyone loves Michael Scott, Jim and Pam's epic love, Dwight being Dwight, all of it. If you don't, you're wrong. There's honestly nothing bad I can say about this show, it's a true blessing of life.

2. Grey's Anatomy

Giphy

This show is literally 15 seasons long, 20-25 episodes a season, and each episode is 45 minutes long. Is it the best binge of all time? Most definitely. I'm actually watching it right now because I've seen every episode twice and I need some background noise that I know. The character developments, deaths, realism and complete and total unrealisms make this show the perfect mess it is.

3. Gossip Girl

Giphy

Blake Lively is a queen and always has been, but Blair Waldorf wears the crown in this show (yes I'm using the gif as a reference, deal). This is the most unrealistic show that has ever happened that isn't science fiction. Even still, I love every second of it. The romance, the drama, the betrayal, ALL OF IT. It's not for everyone, and the ending sucks horribly, but I still love it.

4. Gilmore Girls

Giphy

Honestly this is my favorite show of all time, and nothing will ever top it. The relationship Lorelai and Rory have is LITERALLY my exact relationship with my mom (shoutout to my favorite person, my mom). The sarcasm and coffee obsession is too real. Amy Sherman-Palladino is amazing and I will never love a show more than this.

5. Stranger Things

Giphy

There's a lot of hype for this show so I'll keep it brief: the hype is right. Watch it.

6. The Vampire Diaries

Giphy

There are a lot of gore, relatively horrible character development and teenage angst, but this show is pretty great. It reigns you in with the romance and keeps you there with the ultra-attractive villains. No shame.

7. Parks And Recreation

Giphy

Some people call this show a bad spin-off of The Office which I find completely wrong and offensive. Leslie Knope is an inspiration and is 10000x better than Michael Scoot, no matter how much I love him. They have similar story plots, sure, but they couldn't be any more different.

8. Reign

Giphy

Can we just start off saying historical fiction is dope? Cause it is. Also, Anne Of Green Gables plays Catherine, AKA the psychopathic, poison creating, queen mother who I adore, no matter how insane she is. There's only 4 seasons so it's a quick binge, but it's totally worth it. AND you learn a few things about Mary queen of Scots. DOPE.

Netflix is a true gem of life.

That is all, Ben Wyatt (Parks and Rec) out.

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

SUNY Binghamton

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.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

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.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
