Because there's nothing better than discovering a 6 season television show...

7 Netflix Shows to Binge Watch ASAP
http://www.lovemarks.com/lovemark/the-pretender/

Oh, man. There's nothing I love more than a Sunday morning, afternoon, and evening spent curled up watching Netflix. Sometimes I literally amaze myself at the pace in which I can get through television shows (I watched the entirety of Gossip Girl in literally two weeks). I'm a Netflix-watching-wizard, and here are my favorite shows.

1. Lost

I actually just hopped on to the Lost bandwagon a few weeks ago, and I am completely enthralled. There's nothing better than a really epic Gilligan's Island. Especially one with Sawyer, and a healthy 6 seasons. ;)


2. Gossip Girl

Another 6 season series that follows a group of privledged Manhattan socialites as they grow up in New York City. I promise you'll end up absolutely in love with Chuck Bass.

3. Gilmore Girls

You'll find your soulmate's in single-mom Lorelai Gilmore and daughter Lorelai (Rory) Gilmore. Watch them navigate life's twists and turns, and be inspired by their friendship, and their ability to eat everything and gain NO weight as they do it. Gilmore Girls was a long-running television show originally aired on the WB, but was picked up for a four part extended finale by Netflix. The four series extended event can also be watched on Netflix!

4. One Tree Hill

You can laugh at me all you want, but you cannot deny that Brooke Davis absolutely runs-the-freaking world. One Tree Hill follows two half brothers (and their absolutely awful father) on their journey through high school. Don't worry though, this show is far from dull, there's a high school marriage, plenty of pregnancy scares, and even a murder or two!


5. How To Get Away With Murder

This show is so mentally mind f***ing that it leaves you questioning everyone you've ever known for days. Watch actress Viola Davis and her class full of law students navigate the really messed-up world of lawyers and the law.

**The most recent season was just added on Netflix!

6. Breaking Bad

If there's one show that I wish I could watch completely over with a fresh pair of eyes, it would be Breaking Bad. Actor Bryan Cranston plays a chemistry-teacher-turned-drug-lord trying to provide for his family when he discovers he has lung cancer. He is the one who knocks.

If you've already watched Breaking Bad, I highly recommend watching Better Call Saul. It's a spin-off series that follows our favorite shady lawyer, Saul Goodman.

7. Scrubs

Perhaps one of my favorite shows ever, I have seen Scrubs entirely though at least 12 times. Completely slapstick and hilarious, you can't help but want to spend your medical residency working at Sacred Heart Hospital...I mean, just as long as you have a friend like Turk anyway!

The 5 Painfully True Stages Of Camping Out At The Library

For those long nights that turn into mornings when the struggle is real.

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.

"I want to thank Google, Wikipedia, and whoever else invented copy and paste. Thank you."

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."
