TV Shows To Binge-Watch Before School

It’s easy nowadays to be engulfed in a show until it’s 4 am and you’ve watched two seasons of it, but it’s sometimes harder finding something to actually start. If you’re trying to cram in a show or two before the school year starts, then check out this list of shows, new and old, that are definitely worth getting into.

"Sense8"

There’s so many wonderful things I could say about this show, one of them being the diversity. This show sets itself around the world in multiple different countries, with each character having a different story line. The eight people in the show are all connected through their mind and the show travels through the world to tell their story. What is fantastic about this show is how seamlessly the varying characters can blend into one. There’s plenty of drama, violence, and romance to keep you on your seat.

"Spartacus"

I found this show as it was airing its final season, and I was immediately hooked. “Spartacus” (as you can probably guess) follows the tale of the fighter Spartacus against the Roman empire and his (spoiler alert unless you know the history) eventual demise. There are plenty of fight scenes and the sets are very interesting. Be wary for there is a lot of swearing and campy sex scenes but I think it’s even enjoyable if that’s not your thing. It’s a show that doesn’t hide its crazy, which is what I loved about it.

MTV "Scream"

Of course, we’ve all heard of the movie from the nineties starring Neve Campbell, but this show is a fresh twist on that tale. It’s very “high school” and a bit corny in the dialogue, but it’s definitely a show that keeps you on edge. And if you’re a horror fan, it has a fair bit of gore and suspense. The show is currently on its second season and the first season can be found on Netflix, so you can get watching immediately!

"Supernatural"

For a show that’s been on for so long, this show has been doing extremely well for itself because of its dedicated fan-base. Starring Jensen Ackles, Jared Padalecki, and Misha Collins, this show follows two ghost-hunters through their different cases. If you’re looking for something that explores the supernatural side, this show is perfect, particularly up to season five (I myself stopped watching after then because I explored new shows). The humor is slapstick while the show itself is fairly dramatic. Overall, it’s just plain enjoyable. This show is also on Netflix, so give it a watch!

"Parks and Recreation"

Yes, this is a show you definitely should watch if you haven’t. I waited for so long because I wasn’t sure what the hype was, and then as soon as I watched, I understood. It’s hilarious, packed with extremely diverse characters, and the focus of the show is on a woman (which I’m always for). It also stars a fresh Chris Pratt before "Guardians of the Galaxy." And he’s still just as cute in it. The episodes are only 20-so minutes, so it’s easy to get through multiple seasons in a day if you’re a veteran.

And it’s also host to some of the best reaction images ever.

All of these are at least a season long and will give you plenty of time to watch. These shows can just be the start of one of your binge-watching nights, so you can choose a genre, get some popcorn, and click play!

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.

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.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

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.
