If You're Not Already Watching 'The Bold Type,' You Have Binging To Do, Right Now

I started watching "The Bold Type" when it first premiered and instantly resonated with all three of the main characters. Sutton Brady (the aspiring fashion designer), Kat Edison (the social media manager for Scarlett), and Jane Sloan (a writer for Scarlett).

Scarlett is a fictional magazine very similar to Cosmopolitan. The show discusses very real issues in a relatable manner. Kat begins a relationship with Adena, a Muslim woman, and they discuss topics such as comfort zones in sex and being bisexual. At one point in their relationship, they have an open relationship. Sutton and Jane fight about having a gun in their apartment. Sutton is pro-gun while Jane in anti-gun and they talk about school shootings and gun policies, and are able to find a middle ground. Jane faces the pain she felt when her mother dies of breast cancer, while writing an article about breast cancer.

Season three is as great as the other two seasons and opens more discussions. Kat is running as a councilwoman and is dating her campaign manager. Jane and Jacqueline Carlyle, the editor-in-chief of Scarlett, embark on writing a news story on a famous photographer who mentally and emotionally abuses the models for the shoots. Sutton is chasing her dreams of being a designer as well as some obstacles that come with dating someone fifteen years older.

I want to focus my attention on Kat because she is my favorite character and I love her relationship with Tia, her campaign manager. Adena and Kat were super cute, but I prefer Tia. Moreover, Tia grounds Kat and directs her to other issues that need focus. They are on the same page emotionally and find a way to separate work and pleasure. Adena was in a way Kat's first love. They had beautiful moments and worked through hard events, but I believe that Tia is good for Kat.

The show itself is very progressive and tries to incorporate issues that are occurring in real life, and that affect women on a daily basis.

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.
