I know I'm being judged for this already.

Why The Bachelor/Bachelorette Is One Of My Favorite Shows

So many people judge the show The Bachelor/Bachelorette. Now, I know at times it can seem a little ridiculous and all of that, here's the catch though, no one's forcing you to watch it! For once I would like to say that I'm watching it without getting backlash from other people. Who cares!

One of the best things about this show, is that there's so much drama. You can talk about it for days. While you're watching with your posse you can gossip about the show the whole time. None of this is happening in your personal life, you just get to sit and observe the madness. It's a good break from reality.

I love this show too, because sometimes (not all the time) there is happy endings. The Bachelor/Bachelorette and the contestant who wins have a fairy tale romance. No one else can really say that they fell in love on a reality TV show. Could you imagine having your first date with someone on a yacht, or flying in a helicopter? No? Me either (sigh).

If you haven't already guessed, I'm a romance junkie. My favorite type of movie is a rom-com and it will never change. This show is like a way better, more intense version of a rom-com. This is real people falling in love!! You get to see the raw emotions of everyone on the show and that is what makes the show so awesome. People say it's scripted, but I don't believe them because I simply don't want to.

This show also has major heartbreak. From the first week when contestants are sent home, to the final two people, it's hard to see the ones you love go home. I personally get very attached to the contestants and if the one I'm rooting for gets sent home, I am sent into a rage. But luckily, that doesn't happen too often considering I usually can spot the winner on the first night.

I like how there's also other opportunities for the contestants who didn't win to be the next Bachelor/Bachelorette or even go on Bachelor in Paradise to find their true love! So many new people and so many opportunities! How can you not love this show.

When it gets towards the end of the season and the dates become more extravagant, the girls/guys more in love, and the tension is building it's hard to rip your eyes off the screen. From the dates they do, to the clothes they wear, to what is going on between the two love birds it's hard to not want to watch it. Towards the end drama is usually pretty high as well, because everyone is supposedly ~iN lOvE~ with the Bachelor/Bachelorette. Moral of the story: watch the show and take a break from your hectic life (and be glad that you don't have to go to a rose ceremony).

The Post Thanksgiving Panic And Anxiety

It happens to all of us, the weeks between Thanksgiving and Christmas the catch up with you.

Thanksgiving Break is most likely everyone’s favorite break during the fall semester. You get to go home and reminisce with all your high school friends. That diet you’ve been on for the past month goes out the window, and you get to eat until you put yourself into a food coma. There’s no rush on homework and you can just lie in bed and Netflix to your heart’s content. To me that sounds like an ideally wonderful break, and totally stress-free.

Even Shonda Rhimes, winning creator and executive producer of the hit TV shows Grey's Anatomy, Private Practice, Scandal, How to Get Away with Murder, and The Catch agrees that relationships with fictional characters are real. In her book, The Year of Yes she states, "I have spent more time with Meredith and Christina then many of my actual friends...When you watched TV, even spending a full hour with Christina once a week, you were likely spending more time with her then you spent with most people in your life. That relationship was real."

Going to the gym and working out on a daily basis (with breaks once in awhile) has been a great way for me to feel good about myself. It is 100% more than just looking good. Especially after starting college and having the stress and anxiety of tests, assignments, and just figuring out my future, the gym at my school has definitely been a place of relief for me and I have numerous reasons of why everyone should push themselves to get to the gym when they can.
