With jobs, internships, and the impending school year already coming up, everyone needs a break to sit down and enjoy some entertainment. Unfortunately, summer can be a boring three months with all of our beloved television shows going on hiatus until next fall.

Netflix has us covered, though; with the addition of new shows such as MTV's "Scream," award-winning shows you may still have not watched, such as "Breaking Bad," and of course new episodes and shows created by Netflix itself, this summer should go by fast.

1. Orange is the New Black

According to the Netflix Media Center, the original show, a favorite among many, will premiere its fourth season on June 17. If you haven't watched the award-winning show yet, this is your best time to catch up with Piper Chapman and the rest of the women of Litchfield Penitentiary as they try to survive prison and remember their lives before jail.

2. The Ranch

"The Ranch" actually premiered earlier in April, but if you haven't caught up with the show and "That 70's Show" alumni Ashton Kutcher and Danny Masterson, you don't know what you're missing. This summer is the perfect time to sit down and reminisce.

3. The Get Down

This show is not only a new addition to Netflix Originals, it's also a new genre that Netflix hasn't explored yet. According to Hollywood, this is Netflix's first musical drama and will be set to premiere Aug. 12 of this year. So if you're a musical or theatrical junkie, this will definitely be your cup of tea.

4. Grace and Frankie

Season 2 was released earlier this month, and season one has been out since last year. The show focuses on two older women (Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin) who move in together after their husbands leave them for each other. While at first glance the show may seem to be aimed at an older audience, that's far from being right, as even Miley Cyrus sang its praise.

5. Stranger Things

Everyone needs a little more Winona Ryder in their lives, and in the new show set to premiere July 15, we won't be let down. The show is perfect for anyone looking for a little mystery, as the series follows the story of a missing boy, and a little bit of creepiness is also entwined with the addition of supernatural forces and secret experimentation, but what else could we expect from Ryder?

6. Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt

If you haven't already binge-watched this addicting comedy, you don't know what you're missing. The first season premiered last spring, and the second followed this past April. If you enjoyed the first, this season is no let down, with the addition of new characters such as Andrea (played by Tina Fey), and actors such as Lisa Kudrow.

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.
