3 Must-Binge Netflix Original Shows
Netflix

As the school year approaches, our "Netflix and Chill" nights are approaching as well, and you want to be prepared for it. Whether you're cuddling with your bae, having a movie night with friends, or just want to stay in and cuddle up next to your pillow on a rainy day, I'm giving you my top 5 shows that are "Netflix and Chill" worthy.

1. Dear White People.

If you are the type of person who is interested in politics and what's going on in the world today, including racial stereotypes, this is the show for you.

This Netflix Original follows a mixed-race college student, Samantha White, that leads an outcry on campus about a Blackface party that was hosted to rebel against her college radio show.

Not only does this show cover black stereotypes but, it also gives you an insight of what it's like being a mixed kid and having to choose which ethnicity you identify with (which has been a part of my struggle) as well as living on a college campus that ignores cultural problems because they don't want to deal with it.

Every situation and storyline is dealt with humor but, also has their serious moments that are relevant to what is going on in the world today.

2. Jessica Jones.

This one is for all my Marvel fans. I am a huge fan of Marvel and this show has got to be the best Marvel show yet. This (Marvel) Netflix Original follows a Private Investigator, Jessica Jones on her journey to stopping a mind-controlling genius named, Killgrave.

The storyline to this show is unlike any other. As most of us are used to seeing Marvel shows that consist of the protagonist having superpowers, Jessica Jones is your average American girl. Her powers consist of drinking a lot of whiskey.

3. Fuller House.

If you're in the mood to watch a comedy instead of a drama, this would be your pick. If you're as big of a fan as I am of Full House, you'll appreciate it a bit more.

Fuller House is a spin-off based on the ABC Family Show Full House. This Netflix Original follows the Tanner sisters coming together with DJ's best friend, Kimmy, to raise DJ's three sons and Kimmy's daughter under the same roof they were raised in.

Not only does this show bring back memories but, is full of special guest stars, Olsen twins references and fantastic humor. The best part is, Netflix has blessed you with two seasons! Binge on my friends!


I hope some of these shows spark an interest. All have amazing story lines and truth behind certain situations.

May your Netflix and Chill days be cozy and comfy!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
