15 Of Netflix's Best Movies And Shows This June

I used to have Netflix, but then I got rid of it when I realized I spent more time browsing for good things to watch than actually watching. A part of me just likes looking at everything and seeing my options without having to commit to anything. I procrastinate on things that I do when I procrastinate. So here's a list of shows and movies that you might not have known Netflix had.

1. Black Mirror

This is my favorite television show of all time. If you like shocking twists and meaningful messages, this is the right show for you. It's so unpredictable yet predictive; some of the premises have actually started to come true.

Check out this article for the best order to watch Black Mirror Episodes in.

2. The Office 

After throwing yourself into the pit of despair that is Black Mirror, watch the funniest show that has ever aired. You know when you "lol" but with a straight face alone in your room? This show will actually make you laugh out loud.

Hint: skip to the 2nd season if you're on a crunch for time.

3. Kubo and the Two Strings

I don't even like animated movies but I really liked Kubo. The animation is really beautiful, so even if you don't like the plot it is still pleasing to look at. But the plot is really good and it's a great family movie.

4. Friends

Netflix has all the seasons of Friends!

5. V for Vendetta

Made by the same people who made the Matrix, V for Vendetta is so unique, well written and powerful. It has action, romance, and deep meaning, making it an absolute must see.

It's about anarchists defying the government, so basically what all Americans want to do right now.

6. Nightcrawler

Jake Gyllenhaal is an amazing actor. His character, Lou, is absolutely psychotic, and Gyllenhaal's performance adds to Lou's creepy and cringey personality.

The movie also has a great plot twist at the end. The movie shows an exaggerated dark example of someone chasing the elusive American Dream.

7. Array of Spanish Movies for brushing up on your language skills

Here are just a few examples. They're from Spain, so everything "th-ound-th like thi-th" and they talk really fast, but it's great practice. To be honest the romantic plots are mediocre at best but it's sort of entertaining and better than reading a textbook.

8. Dr. Strange

9. Sherlock

My second favorite show! Sherlock has ruined movies and other television shows for me because nothing can match its writing (except for Black Mirror) and its cinematography. There is nothing as well directed as Sherlock.

10. The Imitation Game

Set during the World War II era, this movie is based on the true life story of Alan Turing, who was gay and brilliant. He and his team decoded German messages and was responsible for an early end to WWII.

For when you want to watch a deep, heart-wrenching movie filled with stellar performances.

11. Inglorious Basterds

Set in World War II, this Tarantino movie sort of re-writes history a bit, but it's still realistic. Warning: bloody.

12. Memento

Memento argues that for the most desperate of us to continue to live, we need a reason. It's directed by Christopher Nolan, so you know it's going to be good.

13. Schlinder's List

A classic Holocaust movie that I was surprised was on Netflix.

14. Finding Dory

Watch when you are feeling sad from watching Schlinder's List.

15. Zootopia

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.

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

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.
