You spend days, weeks, maybe even a month or two binge watching the same show on Netflix. You are so involved in this show that when you leave the house, that's the only thing on your brain. You feel like you've integrated your way into their world and now you're pretending to be one of their characters. When you come home, that's all you do. You ignore your responsibilities and watch as many episodes as you can stay awake for. Although you are watching as many episodes as you can, you are also trying to prolong the inevitable; the end; that one final episode that sends your world crashing down. And when the show finally does end, what do you do? You can't just jump into a new series! You need time to mourn the loss of your show and characters before you can finally move on. Here are some tips and ideas on how to move on and distract yourself from the ending of your favorite show.


1. Sleep

Chances are, you've been ignoring sleep for God only knows how long. I get it though, you wanted to spend as much of your free time as possible watching this show, even if it meant giving up some of your precious sleep. Well now is your chance to finally close your eyes and get the sleep that your eyeballs are so desperately craving.


2. Cry

Now this one might not be for everyone, but if you're a bit sensitive like me, then the tears are a must. You will feel a lot better after mourning and grieving over the loss of your favorite characters. Or they could be tears of joy over what an amazing show you just watched was. For instance, after watching Game of Thrones episode "The Spoils of War", I spent the next hour afterwards crying over what an achievement that episode was.


3. Get Out of The House

You have probably spent the past few weeks holed up inside of your room for the past few weeks. Get outside! Go and see the sun! It might be bright at first, but we have sunglasses for that! Go get lunch with your friends that you've been avoiding or go for a walk and breathe in the fresh air! I don't care, just step outside!


4. Spend Time With Your Family

Being that you were holed up in your room, did you even bother coming out to say hi to your family at all? I mean, after all, maybe they're the ones paying for the electric you used to watch that show with? You could at least thank them by saying hi once in a while


5. Clean Your Room

Yes, I know and it's okay. You can't be expected to pick up after yourself while watching Netflix. I'm not judging because I do the same exact thing. But now that you have some free time on your hands, maybe just a little quick washing of the sheets and picking up your dirty clothes off the floor might suffice.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
