What It's Like Being An 'Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt' Fan

Hashbrown, new season.

What It's Like Being An 'Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt' Fan
Philly

Being a fan of a Netflix series requires you to overcome some tough obstacles. The major obstacle you must face is the practice of patience, and the other is binge-watching.

Waiting a whole year for the next season to drop might be the slowest year of your life.
Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt" came out on March 6, 2015. Most of the fans of the show watched all 13 episodes in a span of two weeks, then watched the season once a month until April 15, 2016 came and brought season two.

When you’re in a casual conversation with either a friend or a stranger, it is one of the best moments when you both come to the realization that you’re a huge fan of the show. You take the next step in the relationship by singing the theme song where one of you sings, “Unbreakable, they alive dammit,” while the other sings, “It’s a miracle.”

Being a huge fan of the show actually does change your life. For instance, when you go out to dinner and on the specials board for drinks it reads, “Pinot noir.” This makes a huge impact on you in the fact that you will not get Titus’ song (nor the music video) out of your head.

Binge watching becomes so evident when it comes to Kimmy Schmidt. Your friends will find that you cannot go out on Fridays or Saturdays anymore -- as you will be locked in your room, lights off, with some popcorn, until you finish the season. With this being said, you start to become the characters. There will be a time where you have to stop yourself to think about the fact that you just said, “Hashbrown,” instead of, “Hashtag,” or when you’re so late on the times of pop-culture, that you feel like Kimmy, or maybe you even refer to your worst class as “the bunker.”

With the season coming all at once, there are so many things to stress about:

Are Kimmy and Dong going to get back together?

Is Titus going to get his big break?

Is Xan really going to be moving away? (That would be “like” totally “not cool.”)

Is Mrs. Vorhees going to throw out every unused water bottle she takes out of the fridge?

I guess the fans will just have to wait and see.

Beginning in January, the fans started to count down until the next season came, and now that it has come, the bedroom lights have been turned off and the computer has been opened to the Netflix tab for about seven hours. In about 10 more hours, you will be staring at a blank screen wondering what you have done. Regret and sadness will appear with the fact that you just finished the second season. Even though it was great while it lasted, you now have to wait a whole year for the next one. So you better get used to watching the same episodes and laugh at the same jokes everyday; although that’s not quite hard to do.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

Bucket List To Live In The Now

Find excitement in your life and start exploring wherever you are right here, right now.

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.

The winters at Kent are brutal, and while the heated sidewalks and some great snow boots are always a help, there’s no chance you won’t bust it on the ice at least once in your four plus years at school.
