Favorite TV Shows Update

I have been doing a few posts on my favorite TV shows, as I am constantly finding new ones to watch along with old shows that pop up in my viewing browser and catch my eye. Because I have recently discovered TV shows and have started watching them, I just wanted to discuss the plot of the shows and why I love them so much.

1. HTGAWM - HTGAWM, or How To Get Away With Murder, is one of my new favorite TV shows as of 2014. It is a drama series featuring Annalise Keating (Viola Davis), who plays a law professor who calls her class, How To Get Away With Murder. This show would seem pretty normal, however it has a twist: each of the few students studying under her wing have their own secrets, and Mrs. Keating has her own too. And when Mrs. Keating and the students become involved in a murder case, they have to put their skills to the test, which changes the way they see their lives and future.


2. Parks and Recreation - Parks and Rec is a comedy TV show. Leslie Knope (Amy Poehler), who works in the governmental branch of Parks and Recreation, decides it is in her best interest to help local citizen Ann Perkins (Rashida Jones) turn an abandoned construction site into a park. Although this seems like a good idea, the only problem facing them is the idea that no one is behind the idea. Leslie's boss couldn't care less about the project, Leslie's coworker helps only if he will benefit, and there are angry neighbors and citizens who do not support the park.




3. New Girl - New Girl is also a comedy. Jess (Zooey Deschanel) moves in with 3 guys: Schmidt, who cares more about his social standing and job than anything else; Nick, who wants to be successful but is a bartender instead, and Winston, a former athlete who wanted to become pro but never made it. The 4 of them along with Cece, Jess's best friend, live their different lives, going through the ups and downs together as they all move towards the future.


4. Friends - When Friends came back onto Netflix I was thrilled, as it was one of my favorite shows. Friends is about a group of friends who live in New York together in the same apartment complex and share everything with each other, from new jobs to boyfriends/girlfriends and personal issues in their lives. Each episode of this show has me laughing really hard, as the characters are hilarious, really embrace their roles, and convey a fantastic plot with multiple hilarious moments.

Getting Through Finals Week

As winter break is approaching and finals week is coming up, many students are stressed about how to study in order to perform successfully on their tests. Here are some tips on how to be calm, well rested, and ready for finals week. 1. Use Quizlet  - I started using Quizlet my junior year of high school, and I have used it ever since. I am now a freshman in college and I still use Quizlet for my classes. Quizlet is amazing; if you have a lot of terms you need to memorize, Quizlet is the perfect online website that will help you study those terms. Once you write in the terms and their definitions, there are a variety of options you can choose in order to study the terms, including a test, flashcards, etc. 2. Get lots of rest - Don't stay out late when you know you have a final the next day. Getting a lot of rest is beneficial if you want to perform well on a test. It does sound lame to go to sleep really early, but if you do so, your body will thank you. By going to sleep early...

Spicy Veggie Bean Chili

Since moving from my old house with a tiny, cramped kitchen to my new house with a large, open kitchen with an island, I have been meal prepping, cooking, and baking a lot more. With this, I have been keen to try new recipes! I do eat meat, but most of the time I tend to cook vegetarian and vegan meals. This vegetarian chili recipe was one that I came across while browsing for a good, hearty chili recipe, and it is so delicious I had to share it with all of you. I did not come up with this recipe myself. The lovely Shannon, with her blog "The Glowing Fridge," posted this recipe. Her website is amazing, and I highly recommend you check it out. (Also, if you are interested in more plant based recipes, take a look at Shannon's website here: https://www.theglowingfridge.com ) Ingredients: 1/3 cup vegetable broth (or 1 tbsp olive oil) - for sautéing 1 onion, diced 1/4 of a finely diced jalapeño (optional) 3 minced cloves of garlic 1 bell pepper of any color, diced 1 ...
