"Scream Queens": A Revival Of The Classic Whodunit

The experience of watching television has changed dramatically over the past 10 years. With DVR, Netflix, Hulu, and even features like On Demand, you don't have to worry about falling a week behind on your favorite shows. One thing that hasn't gotten easier, though, is finding something to watch. I don't know about anyone else, but I know that trying to pick out a show to watch can take me forever. It's a big commitment, to give so much of your time to something, and it is important to make sure that you are going to like this show that you, potentially, will be dedicating time to.

When I was home from college over Christmas break, I was trying to find something to watch and when I was scrolling down the list of shows that were popping up on On Demand, there was one title that caught my eye--"Scream Queens." I hadn't really heard much about this show, but after reading the little blurb that On Demand offered, I figured that I would give it a shot. I'm going to be honest with you, from the moment that I hit play, I did not regret my choice. I was instantly hooked! The sharpness of the characters, the hilarity of the situations, the thrill and mystery behind the Red Devil Killer, this show truly does have it all. I ended up watching the entire series in two days and I was a little disappointed in myself--not because I spent two days doing nothing but watching television, but because I didn't savor the show in the way that I should have. Now, having re-watched the show, I realized how much I missed the first time around; picking up on the subtle clues to the Red Devil mystery, getting another chance to hear Chanel Oberlin's myriad of one-liners that both offend you and make you laugh out loud, the frustration Radwell family, and the often comedic slip-ups of Secure Enforcement Solutions Officer Denise Hemphill. This show is definitely one that can be watched again and again.

For fans of comedy, horror, romance, or drama--I would highly recommend this show for you. With characters like The Chanels, Dean Munsch, The Dickie Dollar Scholars, and even Denise Hemphill, "Scream Queens" is a shoo-in to go down in television history. With season two in the works, I cannot wait to see what could possibly come next. To say that I'm excited would be an understatement!

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Take the time to thank that one friend in your life you will never let go of.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
