We're all familiar with the feeling of not knowing what to watch. We grab a blanket and a snack and click on our Netflix tab only to be faced with a recognizable uncertainty. You want to watch something because you're bored, but you don't want to commit to something if you aren't sure you will like it.

This is especially aggravating given the circumstances of the current pandemic. We're all (hopefully) quarantined in our homes, running out of activities to do, and bored out of our minds.

I'm sure many of you have scrolled through the movie section of Netflix, trying to find something of interest, but you just end up rewatching that TV show series you've binge watched 6 times already.

We can all admit that Netflix is going down-hill but most of us are still stuck with it anyway. Too many gems have been taken off the site, but there are still ones that remain. Without further ado, here are 30 comedies, dramas, rom-coms (mainly), and childhood throwbacks that will keep you entertained for many, many more hours of quarantine:

    1. The Shawshank Redemption
    2. Sleepover
    3. He's Just Not That Into You
    4. Silver Linings Playbook
    5. A Cinderella Story
    6. Falling Inn Love
    7. The Kissing Booth
    8. The Ugly Truth
    9. Dear John
    10. 1 Mile To You
    11. Room
    12. Step Brothers
    13. How The Grinch Stole Christmas
    14. Ferris Bueller's Day Off
    15. Murder Mystery
    16. Princess And The Frog
    17. Sharkboy and Lavagirl
    18. Bird Box
    19. When We First Met

    Things I Am Actually Going To Do This Semester

    Or at least try to do.

    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.
