Atypical

I actually just started watching this show two days ago, and I am already on almost finished with it. Atypical is about a young adult with autism and his family, who are constantly adapting to changes in their lives. This is a great show because it has a captivating plot, but it's also funny. It's serious, but not too serious, if you know what I mean.

The Office (of course)

Who doesn't watch The Office at least once a week? If you live under a rock, and have never seen The Office, it's about a paper company and follows the daily lives of its workers. This is actually a good show to play in the background while doing homework.

Shameless

This one is really interesting. It's about a lower-class family and their struggles with life. The plot is good and the humor is even better. Make sure to set aside a lot of time if you're going to start watching this because you will NOT stop.

You

If you've heard anything about this show, you might be a little creeped out. Basically, a guy becomes obsessed with this girl he meets and stalks her. Like hardcore. It's really different and interesting if you're tired of watching love-entwined shows or cooking channels.

Santa Clarita Diet

This one is really, really interesting. The main character eats a special, magical oyster, which turns her into an undead zombie, who survives off fresh human flesh. The show follows her family as it struggles to adapt to her new lifestyle. This is actually one of the funniest shows I've watched in a long time, and I would definitely recommend.

Black Mirror

Apparently I'm just really into weird shows. Black Mirror is basically criticizing society's dependence on technology. Each episode is in a new world, with different characters. If you like sci-fi, then you should definitely give this show a try.

Altered Carbon

Set in the 23rd century, Altered Carbon is about a man who has been sent to the future, which he tried to stop. Souls are transferable and everything is ruled by technology. Again, if you're into sci-fi, you'll love this.

There you go, a complete list of awesome shows to keep your mind off the stress of finals. You're welcome.

But sometimes it's necessary to indulge in some guilty pleasures as well as just doing things because you can. And honestly, a lot of the time it's inevitable. College is no piece of cake that's for sure, so it's okay to do some things you deep down know you shouldn't....once in a while anyways.

A Deep Dive Into Taylor Swift’s Albums: 1989 (Taylor’s Version) Edition

Edited by Hailey Hastings

I am fully emersed into diving deep into every single Taylor Swift album, which I do on my own all the time, but wanted to do it in a way where I am sharing what a special discography she has. I feel like 1989 is the perfect place to start, it's an era that changed everything, and will always be an album people automatically think of when you say "Taylor Swift."
