The 9 Steps Of Binge Watching

"Binge Watching" is described as watching a television series for a long time at once. Binge watching is referred to by Netflix, by watching anywhere from 2-6 episodes of a show in one sitting, however, the professional binge watchers can watch much more than that in a sitting and throughout their day. Accounts like Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Video and many others are large contributors to the binge-watching phenomenon. Here are some things you need and can do to prepare yourself to binge watch and actually commit to it.

1. You will need an account setup with any program such as Netflix, Hulu or Amazon Video to even begin the binge watching process.

2. You will then need to decide what television show you want to start, because usually once you start there's no going back. (Grey's Anatomy is always a good choice)

3. You will then need to have time to binge watch, hopefully without it interrupting your daily lives. (Usually hard to prevent) So some good times to binge watch are at night, on weekends, or if you are a student during breaks.

4. You then watch the first episode and think you are not going to get addicted, however, that is usually incorrect. So you go from watching one episode a week to two episodes and so forth.

5. It is important during binge watching sessions that you stay hydrated and eat properly, so always have snacks and water nearby or in the next room for that 15 second period in between each Netflix episode.

6. Once you start having a binge-watching session every single day, it is clear to say that you have officially become part of the "Netflix addicts" squad that so many people get stuck in.

7. You are now in a committed relationship with Netflix. Can anyone say addicted?

8. Finally, once you have successfully binge watched all 200+ episodes of "Grey's Anatomy" in a month (We've all done it, don't judge!) you reach the sad reality...what do you do with your life now?

9. Then you realize "I'll just start another series!!" Then the cycle starts all over again!

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.

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.
