Netflix Music

SO I recently just discovered that you are able to also listen to music on Netflix and kind of just add songs to make your own playlist or whatever, and the best part is, there is no extra charge!! you can just search songs and ass them on your list! Well, that is what I have been told anyway, I personally have never actually tried it but I have a hard time believing that someone would lie about a thing like that, that would just be mean and no one likes mean people.

When I figure out how to do this new awesome thing that just makes Netflix 10000000000 times better, I will surely let you know because I do not want all of my adoring fans to be let down. Yes, I know obviously I do not have any fans because my topics suck but I enjoy getting some of my thoughts out and well I really like typing freely.

So now that I have gone completely off topic, I think it should be time for me to do some research on this whole music thing for Netflix, I mean you never know, it could be the new iTunes for all we know. I think it could be even better because no one likes to spend more money if they do not have to so why buy all those same songs on iTunes when they come for free with Netflix? If you do not think this is a cool idea then you are honestly stupid, sorry but that is the truth.

I love music more than your average person so I am just going to go on a little speal about how much I love this idea! You can plug your device, whatever it may be, into your car if you have the right cord and I am getting that soon, and then I can listen to all my favorite songs whenever I want! There is honestly nothing in the world that makes me happier than being able to pick the songs I listen too, or at least be listening to songs, in whatever order that may be, that I love! I hate not knowing the words to songs and this also provides you with lyrics so that you can sing along and then eventually learn it! I know this is like way to excited than I should be but I can honestly think of nothing really bad about Netflix. All they are doing is keep getting better and better!

FOSTERS SOS

So the new TV show, The Fosters, that is on ABC Family is only on the second season and therefore only the first season is on Netflix and I have already seen it but sense I started watching it after the second season already started on actual TV I can't watch it until it goes back on Netflix!! I am having serious withdrawals because I loved it so much! It doesn't help seeing commercials about what is coming up in it either because that just makes me miss it even more than I already do!

I am sure many people who watch Netflix have this same issue. I know my neighbor, Jake, has it with his show Sons of Anarchy because they have the first 5 or 6 seasons on it but then the next one after is not on there yet so he always tells me how much he misses it and now I can totally see what he is talking about.

I think about The Fosters all the time! I do think that there is such thing as a TV addiction or an obsession I guess. I don't think I have this much I am pretty sure I am close to having it. Take One Tree Hill for instance, I watched that when it was actually on TV and I have seen it all the way through about 6 times and now I am on my 7th and I still LLLOOOVVVEEEE watching it. I think I will be that way with The Fosters as well. All I want in life right now is for the second season to be on Netflix so I can catch up because that is how amazing it is. Okay, it isn't all what I want in life but it would really help!!

BRING BACK THE FOSTERS!

One Tree Hill

               One Tree Hill is one of the most breathtaking and just amazing shows I have ever seen. This past year just about every girl on my grade was watching it non-stop on Netflix. It is an older show, well it came out in 2003, but I was watching it when it was on actual TV. No one had ever heard of it which I thought was weird, but clearly everyone loves it.

                This show has the prettiest people in it which is always a fun thing when watching anything on TV, but the acting in it is also great. You really get to see some of the people grow up and change. Everything about it keeps you intrigued and well, I think that everyone should just watch it themselves, you won’t regret it.

                A summary of the series is well, it is about a group of friends, well at first all of them aren’t friends but how they become friends and the journeys they get through together. Peyton Sawyer, Lucas Scott, Brooke Davis, Haley James, Skills, Mouth, Nathan Scott, Keith and Dan Scott, Karen, and Deb are the main characters. Yes, some people get added as they get older but these are the main ones.

                They start out in high school and once Lucas joins the basketball team, everything really just explodes from there. Nathan and Haley fall in love when they hated each other. Nathan and Lucas (brothers) finally agree on their father Dan Scott and become friends. There is a love triangle between Brooke Peyton and Lucas and just a whole bunch of other stuff.

                Dramatic things happen like Keith gets shot by a family member, Peyton gets stalked, Lucas almost dies in a car accident, and Deb and Dan get divorced. It just goes up from there. Later in the series they all graduate and move on with their lies but still remain great friends. You see them change and grow with each other in their home town, Tree Hill.

                Talking about it right now just gives me the chills. You will cry at some parts, be giddy at some parts, pissed, and happy. It is a mix of emotions but everything turns out great in the end. Seriously do yourself a favor and go watch One Tree Hill. You will probably never want to get out of your seat and you will most likely re-watch the series about ten times like I did and are still doing.

The Fosters

I am now onto a new show called The Fosters. It is about a new "family" coming together under one roof. The moms are lesbians with one having one biological son of her own whom lives with them along with the adopted 15 year old twins and the newest "members," Jude and Cali. The reason I hesitate to call them members of the family is because as of right now it is a temporary situation, and although they are starting to really feel like apart of the family, it may not be their family much longer.

Brandon, the biological son, has fallen for Cali but it is against the rules to be in a relationship with foster siblings, which causes a dilemma. Cali has not come out and said she feels the same way, but you can tell that she does. Well that, and the fact that pretty much every TV show follows the same plot which I think is a very good one. :) So the "moral" of this blog I would say is just another recommendation for a TV show on Netflix because that is where all the entertainment is!

I don't want to give anything away in this series but I have to tell you something in order for you to get your butt up and watch this! Most people probably won't really be able to relate to it, well no one I know of anyway because I do not know any Foster children! But, I know if I did they would probably be very interested in it!

It talks about family, friends, boyfriends, danger, consequences, sex, all of the things that in some weird twisted way seem to always grab people's attention. There is really never a dull moment in the Foster's house hold which always seems to be wanting us to see more and more. The best thing I like about watching this particular show on Netflix is that there are no commercials so I don't have to wait to see what is next, and I can just go on to the next episode and not sit around all week wondering what is going to happen.

If you ever have free time or are feeling sorry for yourself, The Foster's is a great way to go about your time and along the way you will stop feeling sorry for yourself, even though this is not based on a real life story, something along the lines like it is happening out there and you will come to see just how lucky you are to have a real home and true family and friends that love you and would do anything for you.

The Great Netflix

I know that some people have issues loading Netflix on their TV's at home like my friends Rylee and occasionally Jake, but for the most part it works very smooth and well. For me, I watch it on my NOOK which requires Wi-Fi and that always helps things go faster! I have not ever had an issue with it loading fast or pausing what-so-ever. I personally enjoy watching it my NOOK better because I feel like time goes faster and I can get through more episodes, whereas on my TV it goes a little slower because of router and connection issues.

I am not saying it doesn't have any glitches though because everything does! My friend Rylee's is probably the worst I have ever seen it be, and it may be because she doesn't get the best reception where she lives or it could be just an issue with the company itself but I wouldn't say they have bad quality. You can get it anywhere in the house if you want and you only have to pay one  9nine dollar fee per month allowing access to four different devices on your account!

From what I have heard about the whole music on Netflix, that quality is not as good as watching shows or movies on it. I mean, I have a phone that I can get music on so that isn't really a big deal for me but if you want something a little different then maybe look into it but know that it may not be exactly what you are looking for. I think that music on there is a good idea, but I also think that in the name of convenience Youtube or your phone are much simpler options.

So really, Netflix has it all, from movie classics to hit new series exclusively found on here, you cant go wrong with a visit to the good ol'Netflix.

'Netflix and Chill' What's The Hype?

       Nowadays all you see in referring to Netflix on social media is 'Netflix and chill', but really what is Netflix and chill?  Most people would define this phrase as a invitation to 'get some' but really can't we literally just Netflix and Chill. When the more derogatory meaning of the word is used, the kooky kids think it's an excuse to 'watch movies' and have the lights off, when in reality my friends and I, boys and girls take a more literal use of the phrase and watch Netflix while in fact chilling. I think me personally there isn't anything wrong with either version, but it has come to a point in which you cant even use the phrase in the literal sense because of how big the derogatory version has gotten via social media.
       Let's talk about what each of these meanings entail. 'Netflix and chill' the sexual invitation, involves two people going to 'watch' Netflix and 'hang out', but I think the only thing that will being watched or hanging out are...well, I leave your mind to figure out the rest. But in no way does it actually involve either of the associated parties watching Netflix and chilling, at all.
       On the other hand, the very literal sense of Netflix and chill are quite enjoyable as well. Netflix can be streaming and doing its thing while you can sit back and relax with friends or whomever and chill. This take on the phrase is less stress, and allows you to watch, even binge on some series or movies you've been dying to see, but sadly haven't had the time. Doesn't that sound nice?
       Now that you are fully informed and up to date on the latest social media catch phrases, don't you wish you could 'Netflix and chill', either literally or figuratively? I think although this phrase has gotten slightly out of hand with videos and snap chats no one ever wanted to see, it is amusing and still literally entertaining to a majority of the population. As much as I love to put in action this phrase, whichever version you choose is very time consuming. Quite frankly I would rather sleep, or nap, which is basically the same thing but like really I just don't like people, and have no time for their bullshit. So if you were presented the opportunity to 'Netflix and Chill', would you take it, or not?

Random Food for Thought

       Up to this point in my 17 years I've been told that doing the right thing will get you where you want. By not going out will get you somehow get you ahead, makes you a bigger even better person, as this concept is being shoved down my throat I, at my young age, can't help but wish that I wasn't so conformed to this ideal. You wonder what you're missing in the midst of your movie marathon meanwhile your peers are 'living it up', maybe not doing the best of all things, but maybe they're out on a late night Perkin's run without you, but by no means have they been grounded to such outdated logic. I sit and wonder all the things I miss, things I don't get to be exposed to, I've realized that while getting ahead seems easier, I'm not just missing some high school party or a hang out with friends. What I'm missing is exposure to laughter, and carelessness of reckless teens who learn their lesson the next morning or in twenty minutes as they lye on the bathroom floor throwing up for what seems like hours, I'm missing out on stories and memories. I often wonder what I'm missing, wishing that I could be able to make plans, or ask to join, but then I realize ima coward and cannot so lul. You miss socializing, you miss an opportunity to put yourself out there and meet new people, and love, you miss a chance to love and to learn what it is because it's different for everyone. Who says I don't know what it is because I'm only in high school and it's not going to matter, well you don't get to decide that I do, because I don't want to sit on the sides, I want to experience life, and learn new things, I want to love carelessly with new friends and old,& most importantly I want to be a person who makes their own decisions. I don't want to be someone who gets walked on by other people, and not that you have to party or drink/do drugs to have a back bone, I just want to be able to put myself out there without regretting it. I wish understanding yourself was easier, but it's not, but if the way I see it, if I know now what my weakness is, then there is only room to grow.
