So it's every college kid's worst time of the year: final exams. I personally always wait until last minute to do everything, so here are my favorite shows I've watched and deem worthy of "binge-watching."

The Office

The show that usually comes to mind when thinking about binge-worthy shows. One of the first shows I ever binged watched. With Jim and Dwight's crazy shenanigans and Michael's hilarious outbursts, this show is sure to please. Streaming on Netflix.

The Handmaid's Tale

The latest of my binging. This is set in the future where not many women can get pregnant, but the ones who can are forced into becoming breeders they call "handmaids". Very addicting and can finish in one day! Streaming on Hulu.

Bob's Burgers

One of my favorites. The crazy characters and pun-filled burger names make me laugh every time. Gene is actually the star of this show. Streaming on Hulu CAUSE NETFLIX TOOK IT OFF.

Parks and Recreation

My favorite live action tv show. This show is so addictive with its relatable characters that can resonate with any and everyone. Mine is personally Ron Swanson. Follows the lives of people working in the Parks and Rec department in a small Indiana town. Streaming on Netflix and Hulu.

Dexter

The one my dad forced me to watch over Christmas break freshman year. This show was so so so good and a perfect binge show since there are seven seasons. It's a dude who works for the Miami Police Department but kills serial killers on the side. Full of twists and turns in a good way. Streaming on Netflix and Hulu.

Rick and Morty

Crazy and full of new references you'll start using after watching. Follows the adventures of a twelve-year-old boy (Morty) and his scientist grandpa (Rick). Get schwifty cause it's streaming on Hulu.

Shameless

Another on my dad made me watch. Not the most family friendly haha. Follows the lives of a low-class family living in Chicago with plenty of crazy turns every episode. Streaming on Netflix and Hulu.

Friends

The perfect show for some background noise for studying. Or binge since there are a whopping ten beloved seasons of this 90's classic. Chronicles the lives of six friends living in New York trying to figure out their own lives in adulthood. Streaming on Netflix and Hulu.

Stranger Things

Remember in the fall of 2016 when Stranger Things was all anyone could talk about? Well if you didn't succumb to peer pressure, you should now. The story is based in a small town in Indiana in the 1980's. A lab has terrible mishaps and causes the whole town to suffer. Streaming on Netflix.

American Crime Story: The People vs. OJ Simpson

I LOVE EVERYTHING THIS SHOW COMES OUT WITH. Although there are only 2 seasons, like AHS each season takes a look at a new crime in American history. Right now they are doing The Assassination of Gianni Versace which is also very good. The People vs. OJ gives an unbiased look at what happened the day of the killings and the year-long trial. Streaming on Netflix.

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods. Which is none other than beer; wonderful cold beer. With summer playing peek-a-boo around the corner while we finish up this semester, it's time to discuss the only important part of summer. And if you haven't already guessed, it's beer. There are few things I take more seriously than my beer, in order are: sports... and beer. Here are my favorite summer brews:

Bruce Springsteen's Top 7 Lyrics

Everything Bruce says in his classic rock songs.

Anyone who was born and raised in New Jersey (or anywhere really) knows of Bruce Springsteen, whether or not they like him is a whole other situation. I hope that his hundreds of classic rock songs and famous high energy performances, even in his sixties he can put on better concerts than people half his age, are at least recognizable to people of all ages. Love him or hate him (I identify with the former) you have to admit that some of his songs and interviews have inspirational quotes and lyrics.

New England Summers Are The BEST Summers

Why you should spend your next summer in New England.

Marconi Beach

Three years ago, I chose to attend college in Philadelphia, approximately 360 miles away from my small town in New Hampshire. I have learned many valuable lessons away from home, and have thoroughly enjoyed my time spent in Pennsylvania. One thing that my experience has taught me, however, is that it is absolutely impossible to beat a New England summer.

You cannot beat the beach. Believe it or not (which many people may not), New England has a long and beautiful coastline. Most of my high school summers were spent sitting on the Wall at Hampton Beach, getting sunburnt and eating Acai bowls from The Secret Spot. The Wall was the place to be both during the day and at night. We begin our days there with a KB's bagel and coffee, and end them with pizza and ice cream. It’s not a New England summer without that 4 p.m. text from someone, “Who wants to meet at the Wall tonight?” Nighttime is for Tripoli’s Pizza, the sound of waves, and wishes on shooting stars. Wednesday nights are especially important, as those are the nights that Hampton Beach sets off the weekly firework display.
