Hey everyone! Today I’d like to talk about ways to destress when faced with busy and stressful schedules. Being a big Harry Potter fan, I recently found a channel on YouTube that has created ambient Harry Potter themed music videos specifically to have in the background as you study, work, or tidy around the house….
A friend suggested I carve out time to “do nothing.” I thought she was kidding—how could not working make me feel better about not working? But after a few months of incorporating this time into my mornings, it’s something I have actually come to look forward to. The time to “do nothing” is exactly what it sounds like. You take a few minutes out of your day to sit and quite literally do nothing but observe your thoughts and sensations. This practice is also called “mindfulness,” and essentially allows you space to distance yourself from your emotions…
With school starting back up and routines settling in, it’s easy to feel stressed or overwhelmed. If you’ve been looking for a way to relax, then look no further! The show, Community, is set in a community college, and is one of the most hilarious, meta shows of all time….
Adventure Time is full of some of the most incredible world-building I’ve ever seen in any format, cartoon or live-action, and executes one of the most wholesome, intense, and emotional stories in recent media. More often than not, I’ll have it playing in the background as I work. With it’s catchy opening and credits themes, energetic voice-acting, and colorful artwork, I find it works both as a nice de-stresser and as a motivator for my own writing…
One of the great things about streaming platforms like Netflix, Hulu, and the many others is that we can watch whatever we want, whenever we want. We don’t have to interrupt our school schedule to watch a pre-scheduled show, we can just watch it after class or during a break. As the global pandemic continues to affect our lives and classes have been moved online, it can be good to take a break, relax, and enjoy a nice episodic comedy…
This show has been on for years now, as it is an incredibly relaxing yet engaging show to watch. Its premise is simple–a dozen or so bakers from the U.K take part in an intense competition that tests their baking skills, whether it be cakes, bread, pastries, or desserts. When you are overwhelmed with school work or have a lot on your mind, watching a show like this briefly takes your attention away from your next assignment and shifts it to the show’s entertaining competition. It may even inspire you to start baking in your free time…
This show is extremely plot heavy; with constant twists and jaw-dropping revelations, the audience’s intrigue is perpetually peaked. This show aims to parallel an actual telenovela, therefore there are a lot of cliché elements to it. I do believe that these elements ultimately add to the charm of the show….
The most recent episodes of Rick and Morty, the second part of Season 4, premiered in May of this year, following a long break from the first part of the season that came out in 2019. The long-awaited five new episodes of the popular show continue to follow the hilarious misadventures of Rick Sanchez and his grandson, Morty Smith…
For all the lackluster films that have come and gone with little fanfare, there is occasionally a diamond in the rough. Even if it didn’t gain much notoriety during its run in theaters, there was one movie that swam its way into a suspenseful and surprisingly enjoyable foothold in the horror genre: Underwater, starring Kristen Stewart and the big bad Cthulhu himself. The film breathes a welcoming originality into the mysterious enemies that slowly pick off the cast one by one…
