Tips for the Perfect Binge Watch

2016 is bringing us a lot of new shows. From “Fuller House” to “Making a Murderer” you can be certain that you will not be without a show to binge watch, and that’s not including all of the new seasons that are finally on Netflix (“New Girl” I have missed you and Nick’s grumpy-ness). That being said, not everyone knows the best way to binge watch a show, so here are some tips to make your binge watching experience so much better.

Clear your schedule.

Get everything you need done either the night before or that morning. Nothing ruins a relaxing binge watching session like remembering something you needed to do.

Get all kinds of snacks.

You will probably get hungry, and you don’t want to waste your time running to the store to get something to eat.

Ask friends if they want to watch with you.

If it’s a show that you and some friends love, ask them to join you. You don’t have to, but it is always nice to have someone there to hang out with.

Find the best place to watch.

Comfort is key, so you’re going to want to find the perfect place to spend your time. You’re also going to want to wear your comfiest clothes, so break out that favorite hoodie.

Pick a good show.

Everyone is different, so you want to pick a show that you like. Whether it is the drama filled “Grey’s Anatomy” or the classic comedy “The Office” find a show that you like.

Enjoy!

After you’ve done these things, and whatever else it is you like to do before you binge watch a show, sit back and relax and enjoy your show!

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

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.
