Over the summer you might have put your Netflix obsession on hold, but now that the school year has begun, we have all missed our dear friend. At the start of each semester we all tell ourselves that we arenāt going to start a new series, but then week three comes along and we realize how unrealistic this is. Whatever our major may be or what our class loads are like, we always have time set aside to watch an episodeā¦ or six.
1. That āoneā show turns into every series in that genre.
2. The term paper that is 25% of your grade somehow only takes you two hours and you convince yourself that it was just a really easy topic. Time for Netflix!
Ā
3. You mentally diagnose yourself with a sickness so you have to stay in bed for the whole day. Season 1, complete.Ā
4. The relationship with your real life friends becomes less important than the ārelationshipā you have developed with the characters.Ā
5. Your roommate comes home to find you crying your eyes out in bed during a sad episode with chocolate in your hand.
6. Your mom calls and she asks you what you are doing and you say homework, even though it is the furthest thing from the truth.
7. You find yourself turning into an insomniac, staying up until at least 3 a.m. every night.
8. Going to the gym and using your iPhone to portably watch another episode (now thatās what I call two birds one stone).
9. Convincing your boyfriend or friends that they will love the show just so you can watch it when you’re together.
10. And finally, finding yourself lost when your series ends and the stress begins to find another one just as good to watch.Ā
