What Newness To Look Out For On Netflix
Google/ Justin Timberlake 20/20 Experience

Although Netflix is arguably our favorite activity to take part in when we should probably be focusing on the twelve-page paper that's due next week, it is easy to become tired of the same movies and television shows and documentaries that are constantly streaming. Luckily for us, Netflix is adding some deliciously exciting new titles for us binge-watch this fall.

The Amanda Knox Netflix Documentary

For those of you who aren't familiar with Amanda Knox, let me catch you up: In 2007, twenty-two year old Amanda Knox and Italian then-boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito were convicted of brutally murdering Knox's British roommate Meredith Kercher while studying abroad in Italy. Knox and Sollecito were both found guilty and sentenced to twenty-six and twenty-five years in prison, respectively. In October of 2011, the two were acquitted and set free. Two years later, in March of 2013, the Italian final court of appeal overturned Knox and Sollecito's acquittals and found both parties guilty of murder in February of 2014. In 2015, the Supreme Court of Italy overturned both convictions. The chilling new Netflix documentary of the ruthless murder case explores the evidence and in-depth testimonies that have vexed and divided the world into two teams advocating for Knox's innocence or guilt. The documentary is set to premiere on September 30th.

"Justin Timberlake and The Tennessee Kids"

Our boy Justin Timberlake has teamed up with Netflix to release a concert performance film in early October. The film allows those who weren't lucky enough to experience the magic of a live JT production to virtually spend an evening with the crooner during the last night of his 20/20 Experience World Tour. Joined by his faithful crew of a band, The Tennessee Kids, Timberlake wildly entertains with the biggest fights from debatably his most popular album. For me, October 12th can't come soon enough. An entire Netflix production that showcases Justin Timberlake dancing his way into my heart?! Count me in.

Season 5 of "New Girl"

If you know me, you know that I love "New Girl," and you know that I was absolutely heart-broken over the fact that I didn't have cable during the time that season five was premiering. Thankfully enough, Netflix has come to the rescue, (but honestly, when don't they?) While a specific date has not been announced, it has been stated that season five of the comedy hit will begin streaming on Netflix sometime in September. For those of you who are like me and haven't seen the latest season, you can understand why this is a huge deal. When we left from season 4, Coach moved with his musically-inclined girlfriend to New York, Schmidt proposed to Cece (!!!!!) in the most nonchalant and sweetest way, and, maybe this was just me, but there was some weird sort of tension going on between Nick and Jess. I'm not sure what this means for the two star-crossed lovers in season five, but I know that an episode will be dedicated to the wedding of one of our favorite television couples.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.
