9 Reasons You Should Binge 'Game of Thrones' Now
HBO

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*)

Jaime Lannister with his blue eyes he makes me go like this, *aggressively bats eyelashes*

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)

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
