Whether it’s a series or a string of movies, today’s youth is known for binge watching. Day and night, we settle down and figuratively become a zombie.

There’s always so much to watch and enjoy. Here are typical thoughts that everyone who is guilty of binge-watching has had.

1. I’ll just watch one episode today

Then you proceed to watch ten because one alone is NEVER enough.

2. I should really go to bed now

It’s four am and an intense binge session has just occurred. Only sleep and food will prepare our bodies for the next one.

3. One More Episode

When the show just got to its mid-season climax, what right do you have to go to bed/ outside now? Surely one episode more will reveal all the secrets.

4. Why do my eyes hurt?

In your pitch-black rooms with the only source of light being our screen, it’s no surprise that your poor eyes feel sore after a while.

5. I should go pee but I’m sure I can hold it until the next episode

And proceed to hold it in till you’re in the middle of an episode and your bladder is ready to burst.

6. Yes, I’m still watching

In response to Netflix when it questions our life choices. Yes, I’ve been watching this from 5 p.m. and its 5 a.m. now – no problem here, please.

7. I need to socialize more

You realize you’ve spent the entire weekend in bed with food stains all over you. The idea of having friends is far away.

8. Wish I had someone binge watching this with me

Especially when there’s a sudden insane plot twist and you are absolutely freaking out but there’s no one to freak out with.

9. How long can this buffer for?

When the internet connectivity is having issues and all you just want is to see what happens next. *crying*

10. Now what?

You have finished the last episode of the show and you have no idea how you’ll function in the real world anymore. What is life? School? Homework?

But in the end, you’ll find another show to throw your attention and life at. Get your binge-watching survival kit ready!

In case you're unaware, "resting bitch face" is the term used to describe when a person's natural, expressionless face makes it look like they are mad at the world. Whether they are walking down the street or simply spacing out thinking about what to eat for dinner, it's very easy for others to assume that this person is either upset or mad at them. Because of this, those of us with Resting Bitch Face (RBF), and especially us women, have all experienced many of the same situations and conversations, including:

We've all had a crush before. Whether it leads to something or nothing, the process has all been the same. The awkward feelings, the stalking, and the stress of trying to keep this huge secret. The feeling of becoming a total spazz is something that cannot be avoided, and the most spazzy family that can relate to this feeling is the Belcher's.

At the tender age of 18, we are bestowed with the title of “adult.” For 17 years, we live under the rules and guidelines of our parents, school, and government, and to stray from any of those rules or guidelines marks us as a rebel. At 18, though, we must choose which college we want to go to or what career we want. We are allowed and encouraged to vote. We can buy lottery tickets and cigarettes. We can drop out of school, leave our household, and do other "adult" things. At 18, we start down a path of thinking for ourselves, when for the entirety of our lives other institutions have been mandated to think and do for us.

You get to check things off of your requirement checklist. It's an opportunity for a fresh start with new classes (which you tell yourself you'll never skip.) This process, which always starts out so optimistic, can get frustrating really quickly. Here are 25 thoughts you have when registering for classes.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.
