11 Stages Of Being Addicted To A TV Show

1. You start the tv show.

This is the first step and the most dangerous. You pick a new tv show that looks interesting.

2. You can't do anything else but watch this show.


It happens quickly and you can't remember when you finished the first season, but now you're addicted.

3. You avoid the spoilers like the plague.

You hide from the internet. You won't talk about the show and if you hear someone mention something you run away.

4. You finish the show.

You did it! You finished the show, but now your life feels empty.

5. You go on every tag for the show on social media.

You want to know what everyone is saying about the show. If the show is still running and even if it is finished you can look up theories.

6. You tweet, reblog, and like every post about the show.

You have seen every post about the show. You love everything you see. You feed is flooded with things about this new show.

7. You can't stop thinking and talking about the show.

People want you to shut up, but you can't. You need to talk about these amazing characters. The internet is boring and you just want someone to love the show as much as you do.

8. You try to do other things to take your mind off of it.

You try to start a new hobby, maybe a new show. But nothing can replace the show you love.

9. You decide to rewatch the show.

You made the decision to watch it again. Nothing else can fill that void. You feel yourself loving the characters again.

10. You finish the show again and start a new show.

You are finally over the tv show. You can start a new one now. It's time to move on.

11. The cycle starts again.

Well, here we are again. This new show you started filled the void of the last one, but now you're addicted.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
