10 Must Watch Shows During Winter Break
Netflix

Now that the semester is over, you are probably wondering what your purpose of life is beside writing essays and constantly studying. Breaks give you time for some rest and relaxation, and what better way to relax than cuddling with some hot cocoa and some Netflix. Here is a list compiled of shows that must make it into your binge watching sessions, with the website in which you can find it. Enjoy!

1. Downton Abbey (Amazon Prime)

If you have a refined style, this show is the one for you. It adds so many combinations of drama, romance, and British accents. This story line will have you hitting continue watching for days. Beware the need to speak in a British accent after watching five episodes in a row.

2. Pitch (FOX Now)

This show is a home run (pun intended). It is aimed at both men and woman of any age. This is a story of the first female Major League Baseball player, with the drama that comes with the pressures of fame and stardom. The show is still on air, so that gives you enough time to get caught up with all ten episodes before is comes back for its spring season.

3. The Crown (Netflix)

This show is for the history buff. "The Crown" is the story of a young Queen Elizabeth II. It shows that pain of losing her father and the responsibility that comes with ruling a nation. The first season is already out with ten episodes, so you can watch the first season.

4. Gilmore Girls (Netflix)

I haven’t even fully watched this show to know that it is worthy of being on this list. When you get home from break, your mother is probably going to want to spend time with you like mine does. So this show is a perfect way to bond with your mother in a special way.

5. New Girl (Netflix)

I have not watched a show so fast in my life. The cast of this show is amazing, and Zoey Deschanel is so funny! There are so many catchphrases you will pick up from this show. If you want a quirky, light-hearted show that has fast episodes then this show is the one for you.

6. The Office (Netflix)

This show is a little lengthy season wise, but you won’t even notice as you are constantly clicking next episode. The cast is phenomenal and this will give you inside jokes to last a lifetime.

7. Parks and Recreation (Netflix)

This show is sort of like the office, but with a chubby Chris Pratt. This show will have you laughing for days, and finding the need every day to “Treat Yo Self.”

8. Glee (Netflix)

For the music lover, this show will be a perfect nostalgic trip. This isn’t your average musical with people randomly breaking out into song, but a show that has a plot and has you emotionally connected to this characters and singing along with them.

9. How I Met Your Mother (Netflix)

If you love a good story you will love this. The entire show is one great story of how a man met the mother of his children, hence the title. The show flashbacks to a single man trying to find the love of his life with the help of his four friends.

10. Friends (Netflix)

Possible one of the best comedies of the 90s, "Friends" is a rite of passage for the binge watcher. The show is long, but the hilarious misadventures of six friends and their adult lives make the show worth watching.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
