Top 5 Netflix Picks For This Summer

The summer is basically here and the weather outside has gotten dramatically better. What better way to spend your summer than by watching Netflix inside for hours and hours? Netflix has released some great new TV shows and movies, but I decided to shorten down my favorites into a list of five shows and movies that I have to watch by the end of this summer. Beware: I have a weird taste in television and movies, and not everyone may enjoy these shows. Here's my Netflix Bucket List for this summer

1. Chelsea Does...


"Chelsea Does..." is a brand new Netflix original series that highlights the shenanigans of Chelsea Handler. I was raised to love Chelsea Handler in her nightly show, "Chelsea Lately." "Chelsea Does..." is a very funny show that tackles a few issues in our society. I am definitely going to finish watching this new series, and I can't wait to see what else Handler has to offer.

2. Trailer Park Boys

"Trailer Park Boys" is one of the funniest shows I've ever seen. I haven't seen the new season of "Trailer Park Boys" yet, but this season is definitely on my bucket list. My favorite character would have to be Bubbles. This show is honestly so damn funny. It's hard to imagine a summer without the "Trailer Park Boys" on repeat!

3. Chef's Table

"Chef's Table"has some of the best photography and cinematography of any show I've seen on Netflix. This show follows a new chef every episode and tells their story. The first and only episode I've seen is the Chicagoan chef. All chefs and their restaurants are outstanding, and the show does a great job in capturing your attention through the use of stunning filming wherever they happen to be.

4. Border Security: Australia's Frontline

This show kind of reminded me of "Cops," but an Australian version. The show is centered around the lives of the Australian Border Security at one of the nation's airports. At times, the show can be kind of funny and bizarre. At other times, it can get a little serious. But all in all, I would have to add this show to my Netflix bucket list. "Australia's Border Security" isn't really new, since it's been on air since 2004. But it seems like a good show to watch when there's not much to do.

5. Janis: Little Girl Blue

My obsession with Janis Joplin just got a lot more intense. This brand new documentary about the singer's turbulent life delves into the personal writings and journals of Janis in the 1960s. This documentary seems like a great way to spend a rainy day or a day when you call in sick to work. The documentary seems to have a lot of real footage from Janis's life and adventures, and I hope it lives up to its reputation!

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.

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.
