11 Must-Watch Shows On Netflix Right Now
Huffington Post

As summer winds down to it's end-- I'm sure you're running out of shows to binge watch in your free time. Here are 11 shows I highly recommend you watch while you can, and they are all available on Netflix!

1. "Orange is the New Black"

A Netflix original series, with four seasons available and more to come. This series is all about a female prison and it's inmates and guards- giving humanizing to back stories to these often dehumanized criminals.

2. "Sons of Anarchy"

Seven seasons of biker drama- written and directed by Kurt Sutter and you might even be surprised to see him play a role in the show. Make sure to stay on your toes- because this show is full of twists and turns, and one hell of a surprising ending.

3. "Dexter"

Eight seasons of conflict- this show is all about the double life of Micheal C. Hall the "Avenging Angel". A blood spatter analyst with an average role in society by day and by night a murderer of criminals. You can help but sympathize with him- while feeling conflicted at the same time.

4. "Lost"

Six seasons about a plane crash survivors trying to make it on a deserted island. This show will keep you guessing as the survivors discovery several mysterious things about the island they have landed on.

5. "Gilmore Girls"

Seven seasons available on Netflix- but this chick flick, drama, comedy is coming back to television with a few more episodes to wrap up the show. This story about a mother daughter duo living a small town will make you laugh, cry, and unable to stop watching.

6. "Parks and Recreation"

Seven seasons of a hilarious comedy- often said to be very similar to "The Office". This series is all about the town hall employee's in the Parks and Recreation department of Pawnee Indiana.

7. "Grey's Anatomy"

Eleven seasons available on Netflix- with many more to come, this show about a hospital staff is definitely going to pull at your heart strings. I highly recommend when watching this medical drama you keep a box of tissues near by, and stay unattached to any of the characters.

8. "Friends"

This ten season show is a hilarious and heartfelt sitcom all about six friends and their adventures. It will definitely keep you laughing, and even compar to your many friend combinations!

9. "Freaks and Geeks"

Freaks and Geeks is good for a short watch as it is only one season. This is your typical high school drama show all about the separation and differences from the "Freaks" and "Geeks". This show is also where many coming of age actors and actresses got their start!

10. "Shameless"

Four season available on Netflix with more to come, all about a dysfunctional family that lives in poverty. Try keeping up with action packed, drama filled family of six- I bet you can't!

11. "Breaking Bad"

Five seasons about this teacher who is diagnosed with cancer. He finds a way to try and pay all his medical bills by cooking and selling meth with an old student. This is a roller coaster of a series filled with drama- watch as this normal teacher becomes an up and coming drug lord.

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?

1997
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.
