8 Productive Things You Can Do While Watching Netflix

With February getting into full gear, it's hard to keep the motivation. Homework, tests, papers are all piling up, and the only thing anyone really wants to do is click next episode on Netflix. But there are a million and one (okay really just XX) ways that you can be both productive and watch Netflix at the same time.

1. Laundry

Folding your clothes is a perfect little 20 minute Netflix break

2. Working out

105% of my motivation to get to the gym is knowing that I get to watch an entire episode of Netflix without feeling bad about it.

3. Cleaning your room

It's hard to get work done when you can't find anything. Take 30 minutes, crank up Netflix, and grab the vacuum.

4. Studying***

***THIS MAY NOT WORK FOR YOU. For me, personally, I watch Netflix while doing problems or things that don't require reading. But always proceed with caution. If you find that Netflix is impeding on your homework, then you should probably put the homework away.

5. Eating

You have to do it 3 times a day, and it's not easy to study while eating, so take this time to catch up on your shows.

6. Getting ready in the morning

There is no better way to start your morning than with some Netflix.

7. Walking to class

Just make sure to pay attention to where you are going! Also, if you live on a big campus, this is just extra Netflix time for you!

8. When you are taking a break

Believe it or not, but regular and frequent breaks are good for retaining information. The more you cram into your head, the less likely you will remember it. So every hour or take, take some time to watch your favorite episode of "The Office" or "Parks and Recreation."

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:

If you are like me, you have an interesting personality. Basically, you love to be sassy and snarky, gossip, and act like a total bitch (not really), but deep down, you are actually a very genuinely nice person. The idea of actually hurting someone truly makes you feel bad, and you probably have never actually hurt someone’s feelings because your kindness always shines through, even if you do not want it to. Not sure exactly what I would call this type of personality, but if you identify with it, here are some feelings you can undoubtedly relate to.
