TV Shows That Are My Life

It's probably a really unhealthy obsession

TV Shows That Are My Life

We all have that one show or shows that we never miss. We record it, or we even skip out early on an event just to see it. To be honest, I have way too many shows that are my life. Most of the shows were introduced to me by my parents, so you have them to thank for the obsession.

My first show: Once Upon A Time

IT'S ABOUT FREAKING FAIRY TALES. WHAT IS NOT TO LOVE? Not only that, the show is really well developed and it's constantly surprising. It gives you insight on different characters we all grew up with. Snow White, Prince Charming, Robin Hood, Captain Hook (Way hotter than the cartoon one) and yes, even the Evil Queen. (Who is my favorite character on the show, so shoutout to Lana Parrilla, you're the bomb my queen.) Also a lot of the people are so cool in real life.

Second Show(s): Arrow, (Flash and DC Legends Of Tomorrow, Supergirl all go into this one)

Arrow is an amazing show for the superhero lovers out there. Arrow was the first show to premiere then all of these shows. But in all, these shows are great, well written and although I haven't read the comics, my dad says they do follow pretty closely. Now, they do get very dark. Especially the first season of Arrow, Flash is less violent, but just as cool, believe me. My little brother loves watching The Flash with us. CW does an amazing job with these shows, and let me tell you, the crossovers are the legit best because when the cast comes together, it's hilarious and totally bad ass. SO WATCH THEM.

Third Show: Survivor

I don't really like reality shows like this, but this show never gets old. It's so interesting because you see normal people like us, turn into animals. They have to vote each other out, find their own food, build their own shelter and compete in contests that test them. They do all this for 1 million dollars. After each season, you always have a favorite and each year they have a different theme. Like I said, it is so interesting to watch.

Fourth Show: Duck Dynasty

No explanation needed. Who doesn't love watching a bunch of Christian rednecks getting through life with their family?

Fifth Show: The Office

I have Mrs. McRobbie to thank for this. She played it in class for Christmas and got me obsessed. Simply because it is so funny. Dwight is so weird and he makes me laugh too much. So thanks for that McRobbie.

There are so many shows that I love and am obsessed with, but these are a few that I highly recommend. These aren't in order of favorites, there is no way I could put them in order if I had to. These five shows are not only funny, but they have all taught me lessons in their own way. The first three shows I would always watch with my family and they hold so many memories. Now, I'm here at college watching them all on my own, and I smile knowing that they're at home watching it too. (Sometimes I even text my dad with questions about the superhero shows, sometimes I all caps him when I get angry at the show too. I swear he still loves me) So, if you're looking for some shows to become obsessed with, now you have some. I would love to hear what some of your favorite shows are!

The world is not always sunshine and rainbows, and you do not have to be, either.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.

April Ludgate from Parks and Recreation is notorious for her "I don't care" attitude. She speaks her mind without caring what anyone thinks of her. Fans love her because she isn't afraid to be herself. April can seem cold and negative, but she's really just fearless and strong-minded. And despite her sometimes harsh words, April truly cares about the people she's closest to. These are all reasons she is the epitome of a college student. April complains whenever she has to do any kind of work, but ends up doing the work anyway. April Ludgate is the ultimate college student spirit animal.

11 Ways To Live The Best Life You Can

Life is full of twists and turns, but you have to keep going.

Life is all about twist and turns, sideways and which ways. Nothing is permanent, so we should take risks, and chase our dreams. We are taught at a young age many lessons that will follow us into adulthood. What we aren't taught is how to feel, and how we handle those emotions. We just have to figure them out ourselves, and that's not fun. In my 21 years of living, I have come to know that way too many people can't handle emotions, or the fact that not everyone is dead inside like them. When you're like me, and you have zero control over your emotions, it's hard to feel comfortable around people who aren't so in touch with themselves. As much as I would like to feel nothing at times, I've accepted who I am and the fact that I can cry over practically nothing. So, there are some things in life that you just have to do.
