Favorite TV Shows of October 2016

Over the summer I had lots of free time on my hands, leaving me to discover new shows on Netflix. I have been told by so many friends as well as family that I should watch certain shows, which left me with a very long list of to watch shows and shows to catch up on. Because of this, I wanted to make a list of shows that are my own personal favorites, as well as shows I haven't seen myself but that I know people are loving.

1. Grey's Anatomy - This show is currently my favorite one. I started it over the summer and have been hooked since the first episode. I am currently on season 6, and I am still obsessed. This show takes place in a hospital, showcasing the lives of many doctors and their work life as well as their personal ones. The show makes you feel every emotion; after every episode I am filled with sadness, joy, surprise, shock, etc. Although there are 12 seasons currently on Netflix with a 13th season airing right now, I am positive anyone who watches this show will be hooked.

2. Scream Queens - This show is not on Netflix, but I believe you can access it through Amazon video by paying for the episodes, or through Hulu or Fox. I watched the 1st season a few weeks ago and loved it, and am currently watching the 2nd season. The first season took place in a sorority house at college, and the second season which is currently airing, takes place in a hospital. It is a mix between horror and comedy, and the end of each episode always leaves you hanging and wanting more.

3. The Office - I have never seen this show but everyone I talk to absolutely loves it. This show is on Netflix and is a comedy/sitcom genre featuring Steve Carell, Mindy Kaling, among many more actors/actresses. When I have finished the TV show I am currently watching, this show is my next one to watch!

4. Jane the Virgin - I watched the 1st season of this show and I thought it was incredible! The characters are hilarious, and the plot is really intricate and not too hard to follow. The end of the 1st season ended on such a cliffhanger that I had to watch part of season 2. I have not finished season 2, but will do so eventually! It is an intense yet comedic show that is completely worth watching!

5. American Horror Story - I watched all of season 2 of this show (Asylum), but could not watch the rest due to it being too scary for me. The scary music plus the high likelihood of things jumping out and scaring me was too much, so I only watched 1 season then gave it up. There are so many people who religiously watch this show, and I completely understand why. The show is super interesting, and each season has a completely different twist and plot to it, which keeps it interesting!

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.
