5 Shows To Binge Watch During Spring Break

Netflix

After a long first half of second semester, spring break is finally here. It's time to relax, forget about classes and have some fun. Whether you're heading on vacation somewhere or staying home, this is the chance to catch up on all those amazing shows you've been adding to your Netflix queue. Depending on what you are looking for, start with one of these shows!

1. "Parks and Recreation"

Genre: Comedy

Comedies are one of the best genres, and this sitcom is definitely a chart-topper. It has a stellar cast consisting of Amy Poehler, Nick Offerman, Rob Lowe, Adam Scott, Retta, Aziz Ansar, Chris Pratt and Aubrey Plaza. Set in the little town of Pawnee, Indiana, "first in friendship, fourth in obesity," every episode will have you laughing until your stomach aches!

2. "Friends"

Genre: Drama and comedy

Originally filmed during the 90s, this show has become one of the most popular in all of TV history. It is one of the most streamed shows on Netflix to this day. It has a cast of people including Jennifer Aniston, David Schwimmer, Matthew Perry, Courtney Cox, Matthew LeBlanc and Lisa Kudrow. If you do end up watching Friends, you'll fall in love with places, such as Central Perk, and the friendships between the characters. This TV show truly does not age.

3. "Grey's Anatomy"

Genre: Drama

This drama is overwhelmingly popular, and it's easy to see why after binge watching all 12 seasons. The cast is extremely dynamic and changes every semester with a crop of new interns coming in. The show will take you on ups and downs and twists and turns to demonstrate the adventure of a lifetime. It's filled with scandalous relationships and great story lines and is truly a black hole that will take over your life.

4. "Criminal Minds"

Genre: Drama

If you're looking for a crime show, look no further. "Criminal Minds" is one of the most enthralling, scary and emotional shows I have ever watched. Each storyline will have different dark and twisty moments. Though it can be terrifying, the cast's relationship with each other is the savior. Actors Matthew Gray Gubler, Shemar Moore, Kristen Vangsness, Thomas Gibson, A.J. Cook and Joe Mantegna have amazing chemistry that completes the show and makes it special.

5. "Gilmore Girls"

Genre: Comedy and drama

This is a great show to watch, especially considering Netflix is doing a reboot this year! The cast includes Lauren Graham, Scott Patterson, Alexis Bledel and Melissa McCarthy. This show is an emotional rollercoaster with hysterical situations sandwiched between the hard times. The actors play a variety of characters you'll fall in love with as they explore their home in Stars Hollow, Connecticut.

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

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.

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

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.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
