Thank You, Internet and Netflix, For Never Letting Me Get Work Done

You never fail to give me a reason not to move from my bed in the morning.

Thank You, Internet and Netflix, For Never Letting Me Get Work Done
The Huffington Post

You’ve given me endless reasons not to go to class in the morning and a thousand other reasons to put off doing homework.

Gossip Girl- I mean, come on- Ed Westwick is arguably the hottest guy on this show. I would let Chuck Bass *distract* me any day. He’s gorgeous, for one; and he has a British accent in real life. He is actually perfect. Thank you, Gossip Girl, from allowing me to submit my homework in way too late. Thank you for teaching me that the baddest and the boujiest are also dumb and get into the stupidest situations that string on this show way past its due date.

One Tree Hill- I will ~always and forever~ be on #teamnathan. He and Haley are the reason true love exists. Second to Brooke, Nathan is the character with the most development and improvement and I mean, he is so sexy in that basketball jersey. Thank you, One Tree Hill, for giving me ridiculous expectations for my future husband. Thank you, Nathan and Haley, for proving that I will always be alone (with my cats).

Doggos- Cute ones, fat ones, dogs that lick my hand, dogs that run away from me scared- SQUIRREL- I love you. Nothing distracts me more than a fluffy doggo. If there’s a dog, my work can forget about being finished. Dogs obviously take top priority on my list of things that I’d rather do than work- right before bang my head against a wall. I think I can speak for literally every human being with a beating heart when I say, thank you doggos, for giving us a reason to wake up in the morning. Thank you for being so fluffy and so cute and for doing dumb things like chasing your tail or trying to eat your own paw- the world thanks you.

The Office- I’ve got two names for you- Dwight and Jim. Their friendship is one for the ages. Instead of writing an essay, you can catch me watching “Jim” trying to convince Dwight that he’s always been Asian. Beets, Bears, and Battlestar Galactica are words to live by. Thank you, The Office, for showing me what true love really looks like. Thank you for giving me a reason to skip class!

Buzzfeed and YouTube- You are the bane of my existence. Without you, I would always get my work done on time and would probably have all of this free time I wouldn’t know what to do with. You’ve given me the gift of taking the most irrelevant quizzes and you taught me that I was Queen Elsa in a past life and that I’ll be thirty and thriving in the Bahamas (which would obviously be ideal). Thank you, YouTube, for giving me a reason to not pay attention in class and for giving me an endless supply of cute baby videos- you’re the real MVP.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
