Stand up comedy is one of my favorite things to watch and see live. It's such a unique talent to stand on a stage and make a large group of people laugh. There's different styles of comedy but most common are sexual, race, swearing, and gender roles. I will admittedly say I enjoy all of those topics and I love how comedians say what everyone is afraid to say or thinking. It's almost like a meta experience. These are some of my favorite comedians that are all on Netflix and should totally be checked out!


1. Louis C.K

Louis C.K.stars in his own show and several recorded stand up shows on Netflix. He has the best theme song that acquired no effort. He just repeats his name in a catchy tune while eating a New York slice of pizza. He's cynical and exposes how crazy life and people are. I love his humor and he has many famous segments during his comedy.

2. Ali Wong

I came across her Netflix special about a month ago called Baby Cobra and loved it. She is in her trimester yet she definitely proves she can bend, run, and still have great sex. She is very crude for a little Asian woman and in this segment she talks about her one goal in life which is how she trapped her husbands ass and what she plans to do with it. She is a must watch!

3. Sebastian Maniscalco

He is my favorite comedian out of this list, especially because I got to see him live in Atlantic City. He tours frequently now due to success and fame. His comedy pertains mostly to Italian American culture and how everyone else is just doing it wrong. He is absolutely hysterical and makes fun of peoples ridiculous actions. He has two recordings on Netflix and they are both equally amazing. A must see is Aren't You Embarrassed?

4. Dane Cook

He is a well known actor staring in several hit movies .His comedy career is equally as great. I've watched Vicious Circle which was recorded in front of a large crowd many times and I still laugh each time. Though Vicious Circle is not on Netflix he does have Rough around the Edges on it. He mostly talks about how couples work, and his own experiences with people he hates... which is everyone. He is hilarious and so lively on the stage.

5. Donald Glover

Rapper, Actor, and Comedian. If you're not familiar with his rap music maybe you've seen him on Community. I was so shocked to see he has a recording on Netflix and I had to watch since I'm a huge fan of his character Troy from his show. He has the best faces and he didn't really stick to any topic. I just loved his segment and think it's a must watch.

There are so many more comedians but these are definitely favored!

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

College is an endless cycle of crappy, sleepless nights, tedious, boring lectures, and hours of never-ending piles of homework.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
