Another Netflix UnOriginal: I Am Not Okay With This
After extensive peer-pressure from Netflix’ advertisement and social media, I finally gave into watching their new coming-of-age series (with a dash of sci-fi) I Am Not Okay With This. From producers of Stranger Things and the director of The End of the Fucking World, this is exactly the kind of cocktail you would expect - except for any type of distinctive personality and style that made those series so memorable, that is.

Well, quite a fantastic episode of Survivor tonight! Starts off with the Edge, Parvati & Sandra arrive. But, here's the thing. Sandra, the queen of Survivor knows she sucks at challenges. Heck, she has the sit out bench named after her. So, no doubt in her mind, she's pulling the flag and going home. She figures, why stay if she can never win a challenge? So, goodbye Sandra Diaz-Twine, the queen stays queen, adios, you legend. You may be out, but that doesn't change that you're the queen. Then at Sele, Yul spoke with Wendell, explaining how Wendell's actions were very poorly done and how he caused chaos when he didn't even need to. Wendell thanked him and appreciated his honesty. Though, the next day, Michele spoke with him about it and he was more aggressive in terms of his speech about it. Yet, she even gave him a token to confirm her trust afterwards but, something's off with Wendell. Yeah, he may have dug his own grave.

Work of Art
During the show Work of Art: The Next Great Artist many critiques were made about how the show was not true to an artist’s process and that it was highly scripted or at the very least planned out to make ‘good television.’ While this makes for good entertainment, this does not necessarily mean that the show should be taken as a documentary. The show may be entertaining, but it should not be thought of anything other than that; it should not be taken as how artists actually work in real life.

The Bachelor Franchise Supports Women
There have been many critiques over the years saying that The Bachelor franchise relies heavily on "pitting women against each other to create drama". Although this is true in part, especially from the subtle (and not so subtle) involvement from producers, in times of great pressure under the public eye, The Bachelor franchise has become a showcase of strong women. Air time is given most to women that are confident, respect their own values and beliefs, women that support other women, even while dating the same man! The Bachelor once placed too much emphasis on shy, overly polite, docile women who just wanted to be "chosen" by the lead. Now, the editing of the show serves to display women who speak their mind, women who say "no" to being disrespected, women who act "unlady-like" and this is a reflection of modern society. We once had cast members like Courtney Robertson and Tierra LiCausi who got a lot of screen time being snide to other girls and bashful to their respective Bachelor. As society shifted to talking more and more about feminism about a decade ago, the Bachelor franchise changed with it. From such an odd circumstance of being one of many women to date one man, beautiful, strong characters were brought forth. Whether or not I, or the rest of the audience agreed with their values, beliefs or found them likable, these women held true to who they are even whilst under public scrutiny of their every word, tone, move and expression. This list includes 8 women who showed true strength and power during their time in the franchise (although there are many more!).

Liking The Peep Show does not make you edgy, nor superior.
During my recent phase of utter self-loathing and minor heartbreak, I decided to dabble into the strange (and horrific) world of online-dating. I downloaded Tinder and began to make the unfair judgement of men and women for miles around, swiftly swiping left on those with the 'wink' or 'devil' emoji in their distasteful bio.

Bravo is My Self-Care
Recently, the term “Self-Care” has become more and more commonplace. For those who are new to the concept of self-care, to put it simply, it is just the purposeful act of trying to take care of yourself in order to be a healthier and happier person in general. I’ll admit, I had never even heard of the concept of self-care until a couple years ago. I’d stumble upon articles about it on social media or while skimming a magazine and the suggestions were always things like taking a bath or reading a book or going on a walk. While these suggestions are fine and things I like to do to take care of myself, the suggestions found online now have changed quite a bit. Currently, if you Google “Self-Care” you will find suggestions like getting on a regular sleep routine or seeing a therapist or exercising regularly and eating right. Again, these are all good suggestions and activities I try my hardest to have in my life. They are definitely more effective and life altering than taking a bath and they are important for everyone to learn about in order to be a happy and healthy human being. However, my favorite, most indulgent form of self-care is a little different. While the suggestions listed above are great self-care strategies, my go to self-care activity when I am feeling really down is watching a reality show on Bravo.
