In this day and age, almost everyone will at some point binge watch tv shows. There is one show that stands out and I will watch over and over again: How I Met Your Mother. Regardless of your streaming service of choice, here are eight reasons you should give it a try:

1. We can all relate with the characters

Each character goes through their own trials and tribulations. The different situations are similar to what we would experience. Anyone can find a character in this show that they identify with. You fall in love with the characters and when they experience their hard times you can't help but feel sorry for them.

2. We can find comfort in dealing with real life situations

The show deals with the tough situations in life that everybody hates. The show bounces between death, job loss, and a variety of other real life issues.

3. The Inside jokes are terrific

There are a number of inside jokes, like I am sure you have with your friends. You get to understand them because the way the stories are told you are essentially one of them.

4. There is always something to high five about

Especially when you can go from one season right to the next, and don't have to wait for it to air on TV.

5. The content of the show is cleaner than most television shows today

The show does attract teenagers to young adults, but the producers are clever in finding ways to cover up.

6. You can learn some life lessons

Some of the lessons that are expressed and learned are reached through extreme examples or stories, but it helps get the point across.

7. You get to learn from the modern day Romeo and Juliet, the one and only Lilly and Marshal


Lily and Marshal are together from the beginning. They exemplify real life issues married couples have to handle, and you see how both of them love each other more and more every day.

8. In our generation, no show makes us more thankful for our friends

These five are the best of friends. They support each other in everything that happens. We see how they all go through different things but their friends are always there no matter what. This shows that our friends are always there for us and it makes us more and more thankful for them every day.

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.
