Hulu's Streaming Services Are Better Than Netflix's, Don't @ Me

Because Hulu > Netflix. Yes, I said it.

Hulu's Streaming Services Are Better Than Netflix's, Don't @ Me

Netflix might be the leading streaming service these days, but a turn to Netflix Originals has pushed its rival, Hulu, into a close second. Not to mention Hulu's bundle with Spotify has people flocking to its highly discounted price (students only pay five dollars a month for both services). It might not have 'Stranger Things,' but Hulu has a lot of shows to offer their audiences, including my top six:

1. 'LetterKenny' 

A Canadian show about "hicks, skids, Christians, and hockey players," would never dare to disappoint. The witty dialogue, local slang, and incredibly creative roasts will have you laughing your ass off. FERDA!

2. 'The Handmaid's Tale' 

Based on Margaret Atwood's best-selling novel, this chilling drama tells the story of a totalitarian society named Gilead. A haunting place where women are treated as property and corruption runs rampant. This is a heavy watch, so make sure to bring some tissues.

3. 'PEN15'

This show tells the real story of what it's like to be a girl in middle school. Each episode hilariously navigates puberty while also addressing divorce, peer pressure, and racism. With every stroke of a gel pen, comics Maya Erksine and Anna Konkle make me remember years I wish I could forget.

4. 'Brooklyn Nine-Nine' 

'Brooklyn Nine-Nine' is as easy watching it as it is funny. It tells the laughable side of the typical detective show and Andy Samberg always hits my funny bone.

5. 'Harlots'

If you're into period dramas with lots and lots of sex, 'Harlots' is the show for you. Two brothels in 18th century London compete over territory and it's as sexy as it is witty. The costumes and set designs are absolutely stunning, but the best part of the show is its celebration of women's sexual power.

6. 'Broad City' 

If you don't know 'Broad City' by now, do you live under a rock? That's all I have to say about this masterpiece of a series.

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.

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.
