So you've made it through hell week and finals week...but now what? Well now it is officially summer and you can catch up on everything you've missed - friends, family, netflix, and more. For some, summer is the time to work and earn the money that they will most likely need for the next school year, for others it is a time to lounge around and do nothing (whether it's inside on the couch or outside on a beach). Here is your guide to lounging around inside with Netflix in front of you - your summer guide to Netflix.

1. "Grey's Anatomy" (eleven seasons)

I love Grey's and have watched it multiple times. It is a medical drama with the right amount of social drama going on in a hospital. This one is going to keep you busy for a while, with 11 seasons, so you're going to want to start this one now.

2. "Gossip Girl" (six seasons)


In "Gossip Girl," a faceless Kristen Bell keeps you on your toes as an anonymous blogger who puts the lives of privileged Upper East Side teens on display, while revealing every single dirty detail. This show is filled with twisted love stories and mysteries, definitely worth watching!

3. "Orange is the New Black" (three seasons)


This is one of the most popular Netflix original series and it's gaining a lot of attention and popularity within the last year. Within this series, it documents the journey of a innocent young woman whose past quickly comes back to haunt her. She ends up facing 15 months in jail, where her ex-lover residers with her new "wife," Crazy Eyes. Watch this to learn more about them!

4. "Jane the Virgin" (one season, but more to come)


This show is filled with action, drama, love, and comedy as it documents the life of Jane, who finds herself in a weird predicament after she is artificially inseminated, accidentally, with sperm that was intended for someone else. This show will also keep you on your toes as you learn the family webs and the love triangle that happens between Jane, Michael (Jane's finance), and Raphael (the sperm donor), who Jane already knows.

5. "Young and Hungry" (two seasons)


I personally haven't watched this one, but it is a quirky comedy centered around Gabby, who is an aspiring chef, as she lands a job with a big-time entrepreneur. Her relationships with her boss, roommate, and co-workers always make for interesting story-lines.

6. "Friday Night Lights" (five seasons)


This is a classic hometown sports story of a football team centered in Odessa, Texas. It is both truthful and inspiring and is definitely one for football-lovers and fans.

7. "Parks and Recreation" (seven seasons)


Follow Leslie Knope and those who work with her on the adventure that is the Parks and Recreation department for Pawnee, Indiana in this thrill filled show. I have watched this many times and it is a great show if your looking for one to making you laugh a ton.

8. "Glee" (six seasons)

Follow a group of teens as the conquer the world of the high school halls. From jocks, to nerds, to kids in the choir, you are sure to find your type of high school student in this show. With lots of music that we grew up listening to and know now, this is the show to watch when you just want to sing along.

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?
