I don't know about you guys, but I really loved this new series, so much so that I established a personal record of binge watched hours in a row for an entire series - call me serial watcher (don't hate me for the pun, please).

Here's why I think you'll enjoy this gem:

1. The wedding

When the Prince reassures a very nervous Princess and your heart melts.


2. Happy family

The royal couple at their cutest in Malta living the dream. And the multitude of shirtless men all around *wink wink*.


3. Matt Smith's derriere

That moment when Prince Phillip is woken up to go bond with his father-in-law, the King of England, and he sleeps in the nude *fangirling*.


4. Princess Magaret and Peter Townsend's love story

Every good love story is a scandal in some way and this one sure is. Nothing is more tempting than forbidden love.


5. The coronation

Look how pretty!

Can we talk about how cute Elizabeth is when she tries on the crown and learns how to walk with all the heavy stuff they put on her? Just like her father.


6. Family drama

The pettiness of the members of this family is pure fuel for my addition to the royal family. The nicknames Prince Edward gives to everybody are priceless, as well as the savage comments of the Queen Mother. Even on deathbed, she is funnier than I will ever be, she just doesn't care. When I grow up I want to be like her!


7. And finally, your face when you have to wait for season 2

You want that blissful moment to continue, but the next season hasn't been released yet and you immediately go in withdrawal.

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. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
