5 Reasons Why Netflix is My College Companion

It should be everyone's, honestly.

Let's be honest. We all procrastinate sometimes. It happens. Why force yourself to do something you don't want to do when you could be doing something you enjoy? We all have our weaknesses. Mine is Netflix. So far I have spent 85% of my time at college relaxing with my favorite TV shows. I'll binge on them until the absolute last minute. Then I'll type a quick outline or study for a quick test. How can you not fall into the pattern of Netflix binging? You can so easily fall into a black hole of shows. You can try one episode and finish the first season within a day. So why not bring Netflix with you to college? I promise it will be your best friend.

1. There are always new shows and movies to watch

The binging never has to end when there's always new shows! It could continue through a whole weekend, because I have no motivation on weekends anymore.


2. It's portable

You can take it with you when you decide to be antisocial, which is pretty much always for your average college student. Long live the pillow forts!


3. It's inexpensive

Let's face it. Not only did we hand over our souls when we decided on a college. We also handed over a ton of money. We worship anything that is under $15.


4. The variety is to die for

I am honestly this frog when I am trying to decide between horror and comedy. Like, do I want to cry, or do I want to laugh?


5. It gives me a reason to be lazy 100% of the time

I am lazy all of the time. Without Netflix I would be ridiculed. With Netflix there's a valid reason to lay in bed for 12 hours straight.

Long live Netflix! It is the unspoken hero that college students needed. We didn't know it at first, but now it is everything. Go on show bingers! Live your best college life!

40 Gift Ideas for the Indecisive

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

Find excitement in your life and start exploring wherever you are right here, right now.

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.
