Why Me?


College is all about studying, hanging out with your best friends, NAPPING, and a lot of free time.  So what better way to kill that time than by mindlessly watching television?  Thankfully, Netflix understands our need and they cater to it. 

My sister has had a Netflix subscription for years and I never truly utilized what she way paying for until recently.  I somehow scammed my way into getting her password and I was living it up.  I started watching SVU: Law and Order, Arrow, and the list goes on but then as all good things come to an end so did this.  My sister canceled her Netflix subscription to try Hulu Plus… and sadly our relationship has never been the same.  She really left me in quite a pickle because I had yet to watch Orange is the New Black.  However, do not fret because Netflix gave us a month until our (note I call it our) subscription had officially ended.

                              

Believe me I took that last month as a challenge and partook in some extreme binge watching.  My every minute revolved around watching Orange is the New Black and I took my addiction quite seriously.  I am sure everybody has seen the show or at least heard about it but let me just tell you that it is easily one of the best shows.  It has so many different dynamics and it addresses many current social issues.


I know Stevie is going to hit on a lot of the plot in our next lecture and I cannot wait to hear his opinion.  I think that Orange is the New Black is a cultural breakthrough and the plot is so obscure that you cannot instantly fall in love.  Unfortunately, our subscription is officially over and I will not be able to watch Season 2, which is a sad reality I must face daily.  I would not wish my bad luck upon anybody and if you are like my sister and think that switching to Hulu Plus is a good idea, YOU ARE WRONG!
