10 Reasons Why You Should Binge Watch “The Office”

The American version of “The Office” is one of the best shows I have ever watched on Netflix. I mean it’s no “Parks and Rec,” but it really is such a funny and light-hearted series. If I could forget what I saw and re-watch it, I would. Last semester I found the time to balance classwork, activities, and about four Netflix shows. I have my priorities. “The Office” has so many characters that are not only kind, but hilarious in their own way. They tug at your heart making you form a connection with them, especially after devoting your time to all of the episodes. Here are 10 reasons why you should definitely binge watch “The Office.”

1. It has the funniest characters you’ll ever meet.

Michael Scott literally always has something hilarious to say. Nothing he talks about makes sense, but at the same time you can’t help but love him. Sometimes his jokes get a little touchy, but nevertheless he is one of those people whose presence in the room is never easily forgotten.

2. You get to see the cutest relationship ever.

Pam and Jim are seriously relationship goals. Ever since the beginning they have been one of the cutest couples I have ever seen. I really loved seeing their relationship grow as the seasons progressed, so this is definitely an incentive to start watching.

3. It teaches you to have confidence.

If you have ever seen even a small clip of Michael Scott, you know he is one of the most confident men out there. Sometimes he gets a little full of himself, but there really is never a time where he does not believe he is on top.

4. You get to listen to some original raps.

Michael and Dwight are rap gods. Their music is just classic. There aren’t many original raps in this show, but when the time comes for them to be played in the office you are definitely in for a treat.

5. Health tips.

Like Stanley said, if you act positively and think positively, you live longer. At least that’s what his doctor told him.

6. You’ll learn that hard work pays off.

Dwight was probably one of the most hard working employees at Dunder Mifflin. He never gave up his dream of becoming Manager.

7. Kevin.

Kevin is just such a funny person you can’t help but love him. He really doesn’t know what he’s doing…ever, but realistically he matters so much. He’s also very quotable, everything out of his mouth will have you laughing for hours.

8. Mindy Kaling gets to be sassy and over-dramatic.

You really never know what’s going to come out of this girl’s mouth. She is super sassy and funny, but you really can’t help the fact that you will question all of her morals. She sure does know how to get what she wants though.

9. You’ll learn life lessons.

Apparently if you stay away from using full sentences, you’ll save a lot of time.

10. You’ll get so attached to their “office documentary” you will never want it to end.

By the time you finish all of the seasons so many things will have changed. I know it’s only a TV show, but you really form a connection with the characters after getting to know them for so long.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
