3 Simple Reasons Why You Should Watch "The Office"

"I think an ordinary paper company like Duner-Mifflin was a great subject for a documentary. There's a lot of beauty in ordinary things. Isn't that kind of the point?" - Pam

3 Simple Reasons Why You Should Watch "The Office"

From laughter, to tears, drama, arguments, love and friendship, "The Office" is a documentary-style television series that takes you on a journey of something so simple, yet so unique and valuable, and that is work. Despite the simplicity that exists in an office for a paper company, this television show offers entertainment through the lens of the co-workers and their shared experiences. If you haven't already taken the opportunity to watch this show, here are three simple reasons as to why you definitely should:

1. The relationship between Jim and Pam is beautiful

What starts as solely a relationship of co-workers and friends between Jim and Pam, slowly begins to flourish into an inseparable, loving bond. Although these two never seem to have the timing right, making a romantic relationship between them seem hopeless, their friendship is what remains consistent. Eventually, everything falls into place and you couldn’t be happier that these two best of friends grow into the sweetest, genuine couple. Before becoming two lovebirds, Jim and Pam are partners in crime and best buds, which is what allows you to appreciate the love they develop for one another so much more.

2. Every character is uniquely hilarious

What makes this television series so entertaining are the absurdly unique characteristics of everyone in the cast of the show. Although the boss Michael Scott can be annoying, his extreme inappropriate behavior is what makes him funny. Moreover, the gullible trait in salesman Dwight makes him the best person to perform pranks on over and over again. Ultimately, from appearances, to personality, behavior and actions, every co-worker is entirely unique and different from one another, giving you various perspectives of entertainment.

3. The bond co-workers have is perfectly displayed

Not everyone in the office gets along. In fact, the majority of the show is made up of arguments, disagreements and obstacles between all of the co-workers. However, every difficult situation is concluded with humor, making the genre of this television show extremely diverse. Whether it is friendship, gossip, love, competition, hate, compassion or sympathy displayed between the co-workers at Dunder Mifflin, everyone has a connection one way or another. What makes these connections wonderful is the growth and change that takes place amongst the co-workers at the office. They might have all started as just acquaintances, but at the end of the show, whether they liked it or not, they were a family.


"The Office" is available on Netflix! Go watch and enjoy!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
