Netflix Binge-Watch List

Who doesn't love a good binge-watching on Netflix? Next time you are in need of a new show to watch, take a look at this list:


If you're looking for comedy:


Comedy shows are always necessary to keep on your list; especially in between the intense dramas you're watching. Sometimes you just need something to relax to and laugh about.


1. How I Met Your Mother: I'm currently on the seventh season. It's golden.


2. Parks and Recreation: it's literally the funniest show i've ever seen.

3. It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia: Parks and Rec and It's Always Sunny are in a tie for my number one favorite comedy.


4. The Office: If you haven't already seen this one, then you better get started ASAP.


5. The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt*: I loved this show. The main character is from The Office, which made me initially watch it. I'm currently waiting for the third season to come out!


6. New Girl: The main character, Jess, is so relatable.



7. Chuck: A regular, nerdy guy gets wrapped up into the world of the CIA on accident. It's super funny.


If you're looking for Drama:


Need an interesting and intense show that will keep you occupied for hours and hours? Every show on this list did the job for me.


1. Nikita: If you're into the whole spy/secret assassin scenario, then this show is for you. Super intense and super interesting.


2. Sense 8*: This show is very original and unique. It's one of my favorites. There's only one season so far, and i'm extremely excited for the second one.


3. Gossip Girl: Of course I had to put this one. I stayed up a full 48 hours one time because I couldn't stop watching.


4. Buffy The Vampire Slayer: One of my favorite shows. It's a bit older than the rest on the list. Such an intense and emotional show. Watch it, and you will not regret it.


5. Once Upon A Time: I love this show so much. It makes me a bit nostalgic because of the whole fairy tale concept, but it's very comforting. It's brings a modern day twist to the classic fairy tales.


6. Black Mirror: If you're into the very creative and a bit weird shows (like me), here's one for you. It has a dystopian futuristic feel to it.


7. Game of Thrones: I know I've said a lot of shows are my favorite, but this is my all time favorite.Yes, I'm an obsessed GoT's fan.


8. Shameless: This show comes on showtime, and a few of the seasons were just recently put on Netflix. This was my most recent drama binge-watch.


If you're looking for superheroes:

This is pretty much my favorite theme of any tv show. I love Marvel and DC Comics.


1. Daredevil* (Marvel): My favorite of the superheroes. Matt Murdock is the bomb.


2. Jessica Jones* (Marvel): I like this one because I feel it's different than the others. She's a lot more down to earth and human(ish), I would say, and she's a private investigator, so it's very interesting.


3. Agents of Shield (Marvel): Another favorite. It combines so many different Marvel characters into the show. They mention Captain America, and Tony Stark a lot, which is so cool to me. Also, Thor characters are in a few episodes as the central element to the plot.


4. Arrow (DC): I've been watching this one for a long time. I like it because, unlike most of the superheroes, Oliver (the main character) doesn't have a superpower. He's just really good at shooting a bow and arrow and fighting. It's just something new amongst the rest.


5. Flash (DC): I love the main character. He's great. Mark this as a priority.


6. Supergirl (DC): I just watched this one not too long ago. It was a hit on my list.


I could go on forever and ever, and there's plenty of shows I love that I didn't put on here, but you have plenty to choose from. I'm sure i'll be making one of these again. Anyways, get started!

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
