The 10 Best Shows To Watch When You're Procrastinating

https://www.instagram.com/rebecca_miller38/

Don't even try to deny it, everybody has those times where they physically cannot force themselves to do their work and need a little mental relaxer. For me, I LIVE for finding a show I connect with, binging it 24/7, getting my friends hooked as well, and discussing the characters and plot lines as if it's imperative to function. I hope y'all find a new infatuation within what's below! :)

10. "Friends"

Giphy

Want to watch a group of best friends discover their place in little ole New York?? Well then this is the show for you. Friends is just a perfect classic that you can binge or occasionally watch in any order, providing you with enough vitamin Phoebe to enrich not only the show, but your own life.

9. "That 70s Show"

Giphy

AHHHHH major ship! Watch the most perfect couples pair off as they deal with their teen years and cranky Red.

8. "The Bachelor"

Giphy

Hannah's the exception to the amount of growling typically on the bachelor. So whether or not you believe this show is actually efficient on finding perfect matches, it definitely wins in the entertainment category, because you are introduced to so many different personalities and get to see who plays the game the best. Plus who doesn't like roses??

7. "House Hunters"/ Literally ANY HGTV show

Giphy

I will never be an interior designer or proficient in knocking down walls, but there is something captivating about seeing what architecture people are drawn too and the gorgeous interiors.

6. "House Of Cards"

Giphy

Oh Franky boy. Through the narration of a classic "scum bag" politician (hopefully normal politicians don't murder as much as Frank!), you are introduced to Washington and how the government functions (or fails to function).

5. "How I Met Your Mother"

Giphy

This show is legen--- wait for it---- daryyyyy. If you don't get the reference you should definitely give the show a shot. You get to live through their thirties with Ted, Barney, Lilly, Marshall, and Robin, and discover how Ted met his wife.

4. "Big Mouth"

Giphy

Great show if you're into disturbing comedy about middle schoolers entertaining the notion of puberty...

3. "Say Yes To The Dress"

Giphy

Oooooh the wedding gowns are ahhhmazing, but the best part is seeing their family and friends turn on each other (including the bride) whilst vouching for the dress they think is best.

2. "Sex And The City"

Giphy

MR BIG!

1. "Gossip Girl"

Giphy

Not to be dramatic, but the absolute best show in the world! Step into life on the Upper East Side and experience "I'm Chuck Bass" for yourself.

xoxo, happy watching!

Things I Am Actually Going To Do This Semester

Or at least try to do.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

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.

University of Vermont

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

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.
