Netflix: The Lifesaver
businessinsider.com

http://giphy.com/gifs/funny-friends-jJqNlY4NZzZio?... A lot of people may think that Netlfix is just a regular streaming website with some good shows right? WRONG! Netflix is seriously the lifesaver to end all boredom. From not having anything to do, to trying to catch up on a series, Netflix is seriously a lifesaver for all, and below are all the reasons why.

1. Boredom = New Series

I'm sure everyone has that moment when you are either doing ,homework, or supposed to be important. This is where Netflix comes into play. I believe there is a time when you do need a "Netflix Break," and by break I mean take about two hours to start a new series. As a graduate student now, I am a firm believer in Netflix applying to all aspects of life. Just because you are studying in your masters program, does not mean that you are free from Netflix "study breaks." Once again, studying is definitely worth it, but starting House of Cards is even more worth it.

2. There's always something to watch

When you seriously think you have seen everything that you possibly think of, Netflix comes up with something great. For me, they blessed me with The 100 and also House of Cards. I get one season that embodies Action and Adventure, and the other a season of political drama. Netflix will provide you with the tools you need to discover seasons of shows that you may not know about, but definitely need to know.

3. Netflix never lets you down

Whenever you have a bad breakup, a bad day, or even just a cancelled class Netflix never lets you down. I feel as though I could have the worst possible day, and Netlfix will come to the rescue. When days are rainy, or maybe you can not think of anything to do, Netlflix comes to the rescue. Also, when you feel as though you cannot push on with life, you can watch Netflix. (a.k.a. after a long day of school.)

4. Perfect for a College Budget

Most the time, you only pay about $7.99 a month for Netflix. If you're REALLY good, you go by the popular saying: "No one really ever owns their own Netflix account." I remember in my undergrad., I would ask people who's Netflix account they had, and they could NOT even tell you who's it is. I currently am using my eight Bucks a month, and it is definitely manageable for the typical college student.

5. Netflix will last forever

With its' great customer relations, and also attention their needs, Netflix will always continue to be successful. They definitely understand that the customers are first, and also that their needs are the most important for a successful company. It's definitely a phenomenal company, and will definitely always be great. All hail Netflix!

The world is not always sunshine and rainbows, and you do not have to be, either.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.

April Ludgate from Parks and Recreation is notorious for her "I don't care" attitude. She speaks her mind without caring what anyone thinks of her. Fans love her because she isn't afraid to be herself. April can seem cold and negative, but she's really just fearless and strong-minded. And despite her sometimes harsh words, April truly cares about the people she's closest to. These are all reasons she is the epitome of a college student. April complains whenever she has to do any kind of work, but ends up doing the work anyway. April Ludgate is the ultimate college student spirit animal.

11 Ways To Live The Best Life You Can

Life is full of twists and turns, but you have to keep going.

Life is all about twist and turns, sideways and which ways. Nothing is permanent, so we should take risks, and chase our dreams. We are taught at a young age many lessons that will follow us into adulthood. What we aren't taught is how to feel, and how we handle those emotions. We just have to figure them out ourselves, and that's not fun. In my 21 years of living, I have come to know that way too many people can't handle emotions, or the fact that not everyone is dead inside like them. When you're like me, and you have zero control over your emotions, it's hard to feel comfortable around people who aren't so in touch with themselves. As much as I would like to feel nothing at times, I've accepted who I am and the fact that I can cry over practically nothing. So, there are some things in life that you just have to do.
