8 Netflix Shows With Fierce Female Characters
Elle

I don’t know about you, but I love to watch shows that make me think "Sh*t, I want to her that girl when I grow up." Whether it’s being a bada** lawyer, trying to bounce back from a divorce or just kicking life’s butt even in hard times — these leading ladies are always killin’ the game.

1. How to Get Away with Murder

Let’s face it Viola Davis is a fabulous actress and you just have to Annalise Keating even when she pisses you off.

2. Scandal

Olivia Pope's crisis management firm, Olivia Pope and Associates may or may not have committed a crime here and there, but Olivia’s connections are goals.

3. Weeds

For 8 seasons, Nancy Botwin finesses her way through her sh*t show of a life.

4. Quantico

Alex Parrish making her way through boot camp as a promising FBI recruit.

5. Love

I haven’t seen the second season of this Netflix Orginal because I’m a fake fan, but you’ll love this show from the first episode. You’ll also hate it because you’ll think about why the heckie can’t people just be happy in a relationship together.

6. Revenge

This is one of my all-time favorite shows — Emily Thorne and Victoria Grayson aren’t really gals I’d like to mess with.

7. Girlfriends’ Guide to Divorce

After Abby McCarthy’s separation from her husband, the self-help author writes about people with family issues while juggling her own struggles and family life.

8. Girlboss

You’ll love this Netflix Orginal based on the creation of the fashion empire Nasty Gal, inspired by Sophia Amoruso's best-selling book.

If you’re going to watch Netflix all summer, why not watch shows with fierce female leads?

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.
