what "The office" has to offer

When people ask me what they should watch on Netflix, I always reply with "The Office." This American sitcom has so much to offer. It's clever jokes and hilarious twists keep you wanting to watch more. The timeless content has universal humor that the whole family can enjoy. "The Office" is a relatable comedy for anyone looking to unwind and destress.

This show focuses on a branch of a paper supply company called Dunder Mifflin. Regional manager, Micheal Scott, and the employees are starring in a documentary about the modern working office. However, the personalities of the branch and the comedic style of the show make it hard not to get invested. The creators have introduced interesting twists on universal characters to create unforgettable personalities. These characters suck the watcher in and form a connection with the audience. The show is the perfect amount of realness while inserting an emotional romance into a comedy. This gives an every-genre-in-one feel that never gets boring. Almost every episode has an unforgettable moment that propels the story forward leaving the audience wanting more.

This creates timeless, family-friendly content that is perfect for watching by yourself or with friends.

If you don't trust me, trust America. "The Office" has won over 45 Emmy awards among those, outstanding comedy series in 2006, 2009, and 2010. The sitcom has an 8.8 out of 10 on IMDb with most reviews giving it a 10 out of 10. One review from The AV Club's website says "It's like a long book that you never want to end and are fine with that because you never ever want to leave it." "The Office" has a 9 out of 10 on TV.com and 96 percent of Google users agree that they have a soft spot for the show.

One of "The Office" most liked aspects is the plot. There are so many different, ever-changing plots in the show that the audience is sure to stay engaged. There are separate relationships, love triangles, and feuds that leave you feeling many different emotions at the same time. The real-life situations that the characters go to leave the viewer excited to see what's next. Because the plot is such a big factor in any sitcom, the episodes are best watched chronologically. This isn't a must but it does help with character development. This show is addicting but not so much so that you can't walk away to get some sleep. Among the 9 seasons made, each one comes with their own challenges and laughs that make picking a favorite one almost impossible.

"The Office" is one of the best shows on Netflix. It will always have a special place in my heart. There is no doubt in my mind that this show will continue to influence many more generations with its real-life lessons and universal comedy. Its timeless characters and amazing content will leave you wanting more. There is so much plot packed into every 20-minute episode. This show didn't win so many awards for no reason so stop what you're doing and get watching!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
