Don't get me wrong, I enjoy "The Office". But whenever I hear people telling me it's their favorite show and they watch it over and over again...I get a little sad because there's so many awesome tv shows that they're just missing out on! Believe it or not, there are funnier shows than "The Office". So for each season of "The Office" (which is nine) I have decided to list one comedy/sit-com that is better than it. Get ready to open your horizons to a sea of better T.V. shows.

1. "Brooklyn Nine-Nine"

If you've read any of my previous articles, you should know that I am one huge fan of "Brooklyn Nine-Nine". It's one of the most proactive and progressive shows on modern television that is genuinely funny and promotes advocacy for a wide range of topics. Who wouldn't love a show like that?

2. "Superstore"

For all you "Office" fans, this show is pretty similar. "Superstore" is about quirky and dysfunctional employees working, well, in a superstore. It's just as funny, if not better.

3. "30 Rock"

This show has Tina Fey. Do you need any more convincing?

4. "New Girl"

Nick Miller and and Schmidt will forever be the most relatable fictional characters on television.

5. "Big Mouth"

John Mulaney and Nick Kroll are THE dynamic duo. And hearing Maya Rudolph say "bubble bath" will surpass any joke that is ever said on "The Office".

6. "The Good Place"

Kristen Bell is a gift to this earth. And not only is this show hysterical but the plot is actually SO GOOD. It's not just a show about doing nothing and telling jokes, but its storyline is so intricate and detailed!

7. "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia"

I'm also a huge fan of this show as well. The cast is hysterical and any episode will leave you laughing or rolling your eyes of the sheer stupidity of it all.

8. "The Middle"

It's such a feel-good show about your "average" mid-west family. This show will leave a smile on your face after every episode.

9. "The Goldbergs"

This is another well-written show with family at its center. And who doesn't know a helicopter mom who acts like Beverly Goldberg? "The Goldbergs" has actually left me in tears from laughing so hard, something that "The Office" was never able to do.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective.
