Bones: The Best Show on TV

A couple of months ago, I was introduced to one of the best shows I've ever watched. Yes, it's one of those crime shows. But it's so much more than that. Thanks to my Netflix subscription, I have been binge-watching the show every chance I get. There are so many amazing moments, and it is so easy to fall in the love with the cast.

What show, you ask? "Bones." Actually known as the best show on TV.

If you've seen (or even if you haven't seen) the show, here is a list outlining why Bones is my favorite show (and soon to be your favorite too)!

1. Typical Brennan

She's so smart, yet she can be so confused.

2. Booth and Brennan 4ever

Yeah, okay, so maybe they hated each other at first, but they're definitely the cutest couple on TV. There are a million reasons to love them, especially if you watch the series from the beginning.

3. Character diversity

Bones has numerous main characters. There are the crazy smart squinterns (yes, I spelled that correctly), the adorable shrink, a hot FBI agent, and a rocking genius forensic anthropologist.

4. She understands us

While we're neglecting our fellow humans to watch this show, it's nice that she understands our lack of social skills. It kinda makes us want to watch more, you know?

5. One word: Sweets

If you are familiar with the show, you are extremely familiar with our favorite shrink. Sweets is an adorable and lovable character. Some would argue that he practically makes the show.

6. The show in a nutshell

On Bones, there are a ton of different cases. Some episodes have to do with serial killers, while some episodes have to do with a dead Santa. You never know what you're going to get.

7. Strong female lead

Angela Montenegro, also known as one of the kick-ass, beautiful, strong-willed female leads of the show.

8. Adorable kids

Could they have picked a better actress to play the child of Booth and Brennan? The answer is actually no. Sunnie Pelant is an adorable little girl. Episodes with her in it are naturally my favorite.

9. Don't question it

Obviously you have to see this particular episode to understand what's going on, but even without it, it's pretty funny.

10. Shhh...he's undercover

Booth tends to go undercover, and it's honestly pretty great. I don't necessarily dig the mustache...but you win some, you lose some.

11. They're real with us

No question is a dumb one, but at least we have characters who can point out the less intelligent ones.


All in all, Bones is a great TV show with twists and turns around every corner. If you're into those crime shows (or even if you aren't) and you haven't ever watched Bones, my best advice is to get on it. There are so many lovable characters and memorable scenes. Basically, this show has it all.

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. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
