10 Best Ways To Procrastinate Studying For Finals

With finals around the corner, we are all looking for new ways to procrastinate actually studying. Here are my ideas to help you not study:

1. Facebook Stalk. Yes, looking at your high school friends new friends and trying to decide if they are worthy or not is a great way to procrastinate. So is looking at your ex-boyfriend's ex-girlfriend's new boyfriend. Keep Stalking.


2. Pinteresting your dream wedding. Sure, you may not have the man yet... but you need to be prepared for when he does come around. Therefore, your Pinterest Wedding Board is always a good idea.


3. Clean out your closet. This may not be fun, however it will make you feel productive without ever actually doing the one thing you should be doing.


4. Perfect your Christmas List. Christmas is around the corner, this is just as imperative as studying for finals.


5. Eat. It's fuel for your body. You can't study without eating, so therefore its to reeeallyy procrastinating.


6. Watch Tasty Videos. This is the best way to watch something for 4 hours and have no idea how much time you have wasted.


7. Calculate your GPA and have a moment of silence. You can be as realistic or as hopeful as you would like and no matter what, a part of your soul will die. We are all in this together.


8. Comfort your friend who just saw her GPA. We all need some love, especially during finals. Being a good friend is never a waste of time...right?


9. Take a Buzzfeed quiz to determine what type of potato you are. This will come in handy when you realize you will not be able to survive in the real world and must come up with a way of survival.


10. Snapchat everyone you know to let them know you are procrastinating so they will too. Procrastinating is not fun when you are alone...


Good luck on finals!!!!

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
