Why I Love 'Big Brother'

I’m sure you’ve all heard me talk about CBS’ reality show, "Big Brother." It’s a show in which there are 16 houseguests who are cut off from the world while being under constant surveillance. The summer of 2016 features season 18 of the show. And when I started watching it back in June, I was not expecting to love it so much. I don’t know how many of my readers watch the show, but I hope I can bring some of you over to the dark side -- just kidding!

1. It’s something to look forward to as it gets closer to summer.

2. Every summer is a whole new group of houseguests that bring all new personalities.

3. It’s on three times a week so you never have to wait long for an episode.

4. There are constant live feeds on CBS.com and Twitter.

5. Along with "Big Brother After Dark" late at night on TV.

6. They start out with twists in the beginning of the season.

7. Then they throw twists in mid-season just for the fun of it.

8. There is likely a competition for an evicted houseguest to move back in.

9. You can develop your favorite two or three houseguests.

10. You have a mini celebration when your least favorite houseguest gets evicted.

11. Even if your favorite houseguests get evicted, they still have a chance to serve on the jury. So you’ll still see them here and there.

12. Sometimes, they’ll even bring back a houseguest from a previous season.

13. You get to know the houseguests almost like your best friends as the season goes on.

14. Once you find someone else who is a "Big Brother" fan, you can have hour long conversations about the season.

15. And once the season has ended, you can go back to living your life until the next summer.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
