Gotham is that one show that you love to watch because it's based off the DC Comics and in the heartland of Crime City. Batman is growing up and the Villains are emerging from their holes. It's a show that makes you feel as though you're in the same world and that somewhere there is a Batman and Catwoman in training and we are yet to see our heroes and anti-heroes make an appearance. Jim Gordon, Batman's GCPD insider, is still young (and super attractive) and he is beginning to rule the world that is Gotham and he is learning about the antagonists that plague his beloved city.

Speaking of villains, here are the Gotham City Villains Ranked.

1. Jerome Valeska

The Joker wannabee. My all-time favorite DC villain is the Joker. When Jerome popped up I freaked out and immediately thought that he was my man, but I'm 97% sure he is not and I was informed by an older fan of the Comics that The Joker is an illusion and he is no one. I don't like that answer so I will continue to ignore it. But, Jerome is my #1.

2. Oswald Cobblepot

The Penguin. I'm not a huge fan of him in anything else except this show. His character is strong and scary in some instances. He has grown from being the manservant of a fearless leader to being a fearless leader. Because of this show, I am a Penguin fan.

3. Edward Nygma

The Riddler. The Riddler is a great character. Jim Carrey played a great Riddler and I loved him in Batman Forever. This Riddler is dark and twisted. He has issues and he's struggling to keep power over himself which is related to some of the people who watch this show.

4. Fish Mooney

The original queen of Gotham, at least when this story takes place. She's fierce and she created The Penguin. Also, Jada Pinkett Smith.

5. Barbara Kean

Jim's crazy ex-girlfriend. She's beautiful, smart and slightly (majorly) off kilter.

6. Theo Galavan

"Azrael." This guy. His character is smart and deceitful. It hurt me to watch it because it was aggravating. He is an awesome villain, though. It confuses me though because I am a total lover of the Batman: Arkham video games and Azrael wasn't a villain. Oh well.

College is a crazy, beautiful, amazing whirlwind. It is highly popularized in television and movies, but not necessarily in the most accurate way. Yes, there's frats, dingy dorms, raging house parties—but there's also a lot that people fail to mention.

1. If you thought that you knew how to study, you're wrong.

All of your classes aren't taught every day, so professors aren't on your case constantly about reading and memorizing material. Once you get back that "questionable" first exam grade, you'll kick it into high gear and figure out what works for you

I've been a bleach blonde for over a year now, and let me tell you, it is a lifestyle. More hair appointments, longer showers, and special shampoo. But it is totally worth it!

1. Mentally preparing yourself to convince your hair dresser that white is the way to go.

2. Or the anxiety of what could go wrong by bleaching your hair at home.

3. You could either become a ginger

4. Or a pixie

5. The face you make in the mirror when you take off your towel to unveil the perfect white strands.

6. Taking a million selfies the day you bleached it, because you know your roots will be back in literally 2 days.

7. Having to get bangs or a big chop because your hair is so damaged.

8. Having orange highlights in between touch-ups.

9. Going out for a drink afterwards to debut your updated look.

Despite the struggles, you love your platinum blonde hair! You make sure Instagram knows it, too. You don't need a filter, because the color is flawless by itself!

Finals: just thinking about them gives you anxiety. Only two weeks separate you from summer, but they're the longest of the semester. There's a familiarity to this season, now that you have had so many testing cycles under your belt. But that doesn't quell the ever present stress to pass your finals and your classes. Even better, as a package deal during these wonderful weeks, you get to wake up early to study and you get to take exams that can begin anytime from 7 A.M. to 7 P.M. Now that we have established that this week is not fun, here are some super relatable moments that punctuate finals week.

I've been at this college thing for almost three and a half years, and while I thought that high school was truly the lowest point of my existence, I'm beginning to realize that it was a walk in the park. Like, I miss the days when the biggest white lie I told my parents was my made up excuse about being late for fourth period. These days, the white lies are a tad more complex, and as ashamed as I am to admit it, I've definitely told a few of these.
