10 Shows On Netflix To Binge While You're Home With Your Family Over Break

When leaving home for college, there are a lot of times that you spend alone in your dorm room, watching different shows on Netflix. Everyone has their go to's, and in short, things that they will never stop watching. Once we venture home for breaks, whether that be over Thanksgiving, or winter, or spring break, we normally spend a lot of time with our families or friends, but eventually you find some down time to yourself to sit in your own bed at home and do what you do best: watch Netflix. Here are 10 shows you can binge in the comfort of your own bed, with home cooked meals, and pets.

1. 'Glee'

This show focuses on high school struggles such as popularity, fitting in, coming out, teen pregnancy and more. The show is touching, so don't be surprised if you shed a few tears along the way.

2. 'How to Get Away With Murder'

Giphy

Honestly, the first two seasons of this show are really the only good ones, but prepare yourself for plot twists and lots of lying. Bonus: Viola Davis is a QUEEN.

3. 'Grey's Anatomy'

Giphy

Wanna follow at least three different love stories at one time, whilst also getting in some hardcore observing hours in the OR? Well then this is the show for you. Pairs well with comfy blankets, and preferably a hoodie that is good for wiping tears away from your eyes.

4. 'Parks and Recreation'

Giphy

Leslie Knope is the true political queen that we all need AND deserve. Throughout her roles in Pawnee, Leslie Knope and the gang are constantly bringing humor and smiles to the table, so prepare to laugh with this one.

5. 'Jane the Virgin'

Giphy

This show has so much tea, and it spills it all over the place.

6. 'Dexter'

Giphy

Something about how Dexter Morgan whispers/narrates the episodes in his head is oddly... comforting? Follow his story of murders and navigating a normal lifestyle, while being kept on the edge of your seat with a different story line each season.

7. 'The West Wing'

Giphy

I have honestly never watched this show myself, but there has always been a large fan base for it. I remember being shown episodes of it in my AP Government class in high school and enjoying it. Maybe this will be what I binge over break?

8. 'Criminal Minds'

Giphy

Matthew Gray Gubler. Enough said.

9. 'Bones'

Giphy

David Boreanaz, also enough said. But also, Dr. Brennan is pretty cool.

10. 'American Horror Story'

Giphy

"Apocalypse" will be added soon! But for now, you should probably get caught up and at least watch "Murder House," "Coven," and "Hotel."

The best part about getting stuffed from all the Thanksgiving food is lying in bed afterward to recover while binging your favorite TV show.

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.
