9 Reasons You Should Binge 'Game of Thrones' Now

As the new season approaches you have very little time to prepare yourself. As it is one of the most anticipated shows coming to a tv near you this weekend.

1. It's easier than reading the books

Ain't nobody got time for that!

Giphy

"Game of Thrones" is based on a series of books by George R.R. Martin, that a verrryyyyyy long. I'm sure you can get much more content from the books, but nobody has time for that. Sorry George. If you do choose to read the books, don't be that "it was better in the books" bitch. No one likes her.

2. THAT WRITING THO!

NED DESERVED BETTER!

Giphy

Whew chile, that writing! "Game of Thrones" has amazing writing. You'll laugh, you'll cry (a lot), you'll want to burn your TV in the fire (a lot). The point is you're watching a show about a fantasy land with fantasy people that will NEVER exist, but you still feel a connection to them and their stories. Warning: don't get too attached to ANYONE! Don't say I never warned you.

3. Badass Women!

Not a queen, a Khalessi. PERIODT!

Giphy

This show has no shortage of beautiful,badass women, which is amazing. Especially considering this show is set in a time in which women had no rights what so ever. Who run Westeros? GIRLS!

4. MEN! (*heart eyes*)

Giphy

Ok, so this show just has great characters overall (again it's that writing!). However, it would be a crime for me not to mention how GORGEOUS the men on this show are. Let's be honest though, 95% of Westeros is just beautiful people.

5. You'll never be bored

YOU GET EM' BABE!

Giphy

There really isn't ever a boring episode of "Game of Thrones". The moment you think things are calming down someone gets slaughtered or betrayed and you're SHOOK all over again. Seriously, don't blink or you'll miss something, pin you eyes open if you have to.

6. Dragons!!!

*aggressively screeches*

Giphy

That's it. Dragons. I think that's all I have to say.

7. The Lannisters will send their regards if you don't watch it.

*cries* THE NORTH REMEMBERS!

Giphy

If you want to understand that reference, watch "Game of Thrones"!

8. You have less than a month left before the last season

aggressive binging is coming...

Giphy

I know you can binge all 7 seasons in less than a month! I did 6 seasons in two weeks. I believe in you!

9. And did I mention...DRAGONS

*more aggressive screeching*

Giphy

Burn them all!!!!! (You'll understand that reference later too)

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.

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.
