My Top 5 Guilty Pleasure Reality TV Shows

Because it is totally okay to escape from your own reality.

Watching reality TV is definitely a guilty pleasure for many. It is nice to be able to watch someone else's life and not worry about the stresses of your own for an episode a week. Here are some of my favorite reality TV shows to watch, maybe you might give them a try!

1. 'The Bachelor.' 

'The Bachelor' gives us a look into an unconventional way of falling in love. While it is a beautiful thing to watch before our eyes, the show also highlights what gets the most attention: the drama. The drama takes over the show every season, which only hypes up the fans. Social media is on fire following every single episode and keeps the fans watching. But in the end, it is amazing to see two people (our twenty fine) exploring love.

2. 'Big Brother.' 

If you have never seen 'Big Brother,' you are in for a real treat. This show is comprised of so many different challenges. There are physical, mental, and even emotional challenges that sixteen individuals go through while they are stuck in a house with complete strangers. The goal is simple: to stay in the house. It is so interesting to watch the different strategies game players go in with and to see who comes out on top.

3. 'Below Deck.' 

'Below Deck' gives a different spin to typical reality TV shows. They dive into the lives of private charter employees. We get to see the ins and outs of private charters, especially the drama on the ship. You have drama between those working on the ship as well as mishaps that happen with the charter guests. I love getting to see the beautiful places they travel to and getting updates on who is mad at who and who ignored the guest's preference sheet!

4. 'Ex on the Beach.' 

This show I would say is a combination of all reality shows. A group of social media or TV stars are living at a beach house together and expect to be simply finding love. However, they get shocked to find out that every week, some of them will have exes coming into the house. TALK ABOUT AWKWARD! Seeing the exes and waves caused every week keeps you on the edge of your seat.

5. 'Jersey Shore.' 

This is quite the throwback but this is a classic. I would say 'Jersey Shore' is the first reality show I ever watched. It will always be my go-to on Hulu to watch if I ever need a laugh. The bond these roommates have formed kept me watching but the moments they shared with the public are what kept it interesting. These roommates are the definition of dysfunction and it got better and better with every season.

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.
