8 TV Shows To Binge Watch During The Summer

1. Revenge

This is probably one of my favorite TV shows. Ever. Revenge is about a girl who lost her father at a young age, and wants to get back at those who treated her father wrongly. The show is set in the Hamptons and it's perfect for when you want to vicariously live that rich lifestyle.

2. How To Get Away With Murder

HTGAWM is about a group of law students that are hand-picked by their professor to help her with her own cases. Little do they know though, that they'll be dragged into her mess of a life and be forced to take on cases about, well you guessed it, murder. Seasons 1 and 2 were really great, in my opinion, but season 3 was a little slow. Nevertheless, it's a really good watch!

3. Jane The Virgin

I LOVE Jane the Virgin. This show is so over-the-top at times and absolutely hilarious and heartwarming at the same time. Jane the Virgin is a telenovela, a type of Spanish TV show that has a crazy, dramatic plot and exaggerated moments. JTV is very easy and enjoyable to watch.

4. The Office

A classic. You have to watch this show if you haven't already. Set in a Pennsylvanian town, The Office documents the lives of those who work at a small paper company. The outrageous pranks and heart warming moments make The Office a really easy and fun watch.

5. How I Met Your Mother

HIMYM is a heart-warming sitcom and nearly everyone I've met who has seen the show has loved it. The seemingly never-ending search for the mother keeps viewers hooked with many laughs along the way.

6. New Girl

This is the most recent show that I have personally gotten into, and I love it. New Girl has a very Friends-like vibe and it captures the struggles that many 20-30 year olds go through while making its viewers laugh. Plus Jess is adorable. You just want to be her best friend.

7. Bates Motel

This is definitely one of the darker shows on the list. Bates Motel is a spin-off of Psycho and it explores the hardships that Norman Bates faced as a teenager. Bates Motel is very mysterious and it's hard to watch only one episode at once.

8. Stranger Things

No list is complete without Stranger Things. There are some "scary" parts, but these are offset by the "cuteness" of the main characters because of how young they are. I watched all of season 2 in only 3 sittings, and many watched the entire show in one sitting.

Creating your schedule for the upcoming semester can be an exciting process. You have the control to decide if you want to have class two-days a week or five-days a week. You get to check things off of your requirement checklist. It's an opportunity for a fresh start with new classes (which you tell yourself you'll never skip.) This process, which always starts out so optimistic, can get frustrating really quickly. Here are 25 thoughts you have when registering for classes.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.

In the 12 years since it went off the air, "Friends" continues to be adored by millions. The show that gave generations unrealistic expectations about love (or should I say lobsters?) and New York City apartments had a charming cast of characters that everyone could relate to at some point or another. Here are 17 times Ross, Monica, Joey, Chandler, Phoebe and Rachel accurately described life.

Aubrey Plaza is one of my favorite humans in Hollywood. She's honest, blunt, unapologetic, and hilarious. I just started my sophomore year of college, and found that some of her best moments can accurately describe the start of the school year.
