17 Reasons Why 'Supernatural' Should Be Your New Favorite Show
The CW

Ah, "Supernatural;" my absolute favorite show on earth. I could go on and on and on about all the reasons why this should be your new favorite show. Seriously, there is no end to the reasons I could give. But that would take forever, so you and I will have to settle for this non-comprehensive list of why you should start watching "Supernatural" ASAP. Bonus: it's on Netflix, so binge away! It's twelve seasons long, so there's lots of catching up to do.

You Should Watch "Supernatural" For:

1. This Guy

Dean MF Winchester, ladies and gentlemen. One of the two protagonists, he and his younger brother travel the country hunting supernatural evil creatures and saving people, the family business.


2. And This Guy

Sam Winchester, of the dimples and puppy dog eyes. He is the younger half of the Winchester duo and often acts as the brains of the operations with his extensive knowledge of supernatural creatures.


3. And Also This Guy

Castiel is a fallen angel and a central character after his introduction. He assists the boys in their hunts, and for a few seasons is generally clueless as to proper human etiquette. It's adorable.


4. Baby

The soul and mascot of the show, a gorgeous 1967 Chevy Impala, passed down to the boys from their father John. She is Dean's pride and joy.


5. The Bromance

The brothers share an incredibly close bond, and many episodes center around one of them sacrificing himself to save the other. This leads to many deaths, and dubious deals with demons.


6. The Music

The show has a great soundtrack of big-hair bands and classic rock tunes that will satisfy any rock enthusiast or casual fan. (He's playing "Eye of the Tiger." This is from the blooper reel.)


7. The Witty One-Liners

Dean has a quick tongue and a quicker wit, and he doesn't hesitate to taunt the bad guys every chance he gets. It often gets him into trouble he could avoid, but he hasn't learned his lesson yet.


8. The Demons Are Hot

Ruby is one of the first recurring demons to appear in the show, and all of her human hosts are easy on the eyes. So are all the rest of the demons that cross blades with the Winchesters.


9. The Angels Are Hotter

There are a multitude of beautiful angels to enjoy as well. Sidenote: Castiel's wings aren't usually visible, so enjoy the rare chance to see them.


10. The Battles

Even though the brothers are willing to die for each other, they still have their squabbles now and again. Plus, chances are one of them is possessed during the fight. When they aren't fighting each other, they are taking on angels, demons, ghouls, vampires, and the like, and the clashes are epic.


11. The Possessions

Everyone is at risk of possession basically at any moment, despite the protective tattoos the boys have for a few seasons. Generally, black eyes indicate possession, although in season one they hunt a demon with distinctive yellow eyes.


12. The Deaths

In a show about hunting evil, it's no surprise that there are a lot of deaths. Even the brothers aren't safe from Death's cold hands.


13. The Resurrections

It also stands to reason, that in a show about the supernatural there is bound to be a resurrection or two. Or four. Or more. Thank heavens, because where would a show be without its main characters?


14. The Laughter

The Winchesters lead a hard life, so every smile is like a ray of sunshine in a never-ending storm, something to be treasured. And what heart-melting smiles they are.


15. The Tears

So heartbreaking. Tears from Sam and Dean have a way of bringing your heart to its knees, and turning your eyes into water fountains.


16. The Love of Pie

Dean loves pie, and it's adorable. 'Nuff said.


17. The Bloopers

There are so many good bloopers that I had time choosing which one I wanted to use here! The chemistry on set is amazing, and leads to many, many hours of hilarious antics.


I hope you've enjoyed this peek into my little "Supernatural" world. Now go watch episode one!

This is for the girls who have dealt with an emotionally, mentally, physically or verbally abusive father.

The ones who have grown up with a false lens of what love is and how relationships should be. The ones who have cried themselves to sleep wondering why he hurts you and your family so much. This is for all the girls who fall in love with broken boys that carry baggage bigger than their own, thinking it's their job to heal them because you watched your mother do the same.

Blair Waldorf Quote
"DESTINY IS FOR LOSERS. IT'S JUST A STUPID EXCUSE TO WAIT FOR THINGS TO HAPPEN INSTEAD OF MAKING THEM HAPPEN." - BLAIR WALDORF.

The world stopped in 2012 when our beloved show "Gossip Girl" ended. For six straight years, we would all tune in every Monday at 9:00 p.m. to see Upper Eastside royalty in the form of a Burberry headband clad Blair Waldorf. Blair was the big sister that we all loved to hate. How could we ever forget the epic showdowns between her and her frenemy Serena Van Der Woodsen? Or the time she banished Georgina Sparks to a Christian summer camp? How about that time when she and her girls took down Bart Bass? Blair is life. She's taught us how to dress, how to be ambitious, and most importantly, how to throw the perfect shade.

We've all been there. From move-in day to the first finals week in college, your first term is an adventure from start to finish. In honor of college decisions coming out recently, I want to recap some of the most common experiences college freshmen experience.

1. The awkward hellos on move-in day.

You're moving your stuff onto your floor, and you will encounter people you don't know yet in the hallway. They live on your floor, so you'll awkwardly smile and maybe introduce yourself. As you walk away, you will wonder if they will ever speak to you again, but don't worry, there's a good chance that you will make some great friends on your floor!

Recently I completed my freshman year of college, and boy, what an experience. It was a completely new learning environment and I can't believe how much I learned. In an effort to save time, here are the ten biggest lessons I learned from my first year of college.

1. Everyone is in the same boat

For me, the scariest part of starting school was that I was alone, that I wouldn't be able to make any friends and that I would stick out. Despite being told time and time again that everyone had these same feelings, it didn't really click until the first day when I saw all the other freshman looking as uneasy and uncomfortable as me. Therefore, I cannot stress this enough, everyone is feeling as nervous as you.
