Have you ever had a day where it even hurts to think about all the work you have to do? Have you ever had classes, a job and a big paper to write all in one day?
Most college students could answer this question with a resounding yes for almost everyday of the week. With all this life stress, it is important to take a little break each day for some personal time.
Although there never seems to be enough time in a day to get all our work done, let alone take some time out for themselves.
For an hour each day all these troubles can be pushed aside. Whether a student likes to take quick naps, shop on the computer or play some video games, it is just necessary that each of them get a little break from reality.
To make sure Cabrini students are staying as sane as possible, listed below are television shows that are for all different kinds of people with all different kinds of interest, and still are some of the best rated shows on television. Hopefully, this will get you through the days a little easier.
