The Struggles of Watching TV Shows as a College Student

With the fall and the return of back to school comes the natural tendency to want to watch tv shows whether it be the ones returning to television or an overwhelming need to suddenly binge watch that one series you should have watched over summer. Here are some of the struggles that come out of these sudden urges to watch tv shows.

1. Wanting to catch the latest episode of your favorite show only to be overwhelmed by work. Scream Queens, and American Horror Story I'm looking at you.

2. Finally finding the time to watch said shows only to realize they're not on Netflix or their channel website.

3. When the online stream says it's going to expire in a week and you don't have the time to binge watch it all. Shoutout to Freeform seeing as I just started guilt.

4. Falling asleep mid-episode after finally finding yourself free, and waking up completely and utterly confused.

5. Hearing other people talk about the episode in class and wondering how they had time to watch it while you didn't.

6. Spoilers on social media, need I say more. *cough*Game of Thrones*cough* So you naturally have to avoid all forms of it until you watch the episode.

7. When the school wifi goes down right when the show gets interesting and doesn't come back up for hours on end.

8. When you don't even have wifi at all, also known as every college kid's worst nightmare.

9. That moment of sadness when the buffering takes too long and you lose patience so you give up on watching the show.

10. When you have such high hopes for a show only to realize it's terrible but still binge watch it anyways.


So go on now dear college students and watch tv to your hearts content, well as long as you know you have time.

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.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
