With school starting up for most people, it is really important to take time for yourselves. It is essential that you take time out of your busy schedules to relax.

1. Make a to do list.

Making a to do list is very important so you can complete everything you have to do, in an orderly fashion. This is very important because it will not cause stress, you will be able do everything. Also, it is totally satisfying to cross everything off your list.

2. Plan out your outfit the night before.

It is essential to do this because it gives you so much more time in the morning. Rather than rushing around trying to find something to wear you can have a much more relaxing morning.

3. Take breaks while doing homework.

If you are doing a lot of homework in one sitting it is better for your brain to take breaks. You will produce greater work because if you are staring at the same thing for an extended period of time you tend not to focus as much.

4. Listen to study music.

There are so many playlists on Spotify, just look up study music and you will not be disappointed. They are calming and they help you focus. Everybody loves to listen to music, however if it is your favorite song you might focus on that more that your work.

5. Drink lots of water.

It is really easy to forget to drink lots of water when you are cramming. Staying hydrated is one of the most important things to remember. It will help you stay healthy, and will help you preform better on tests/ in school in general.

6. Eat healthy snacks.

Not everybody has time for a full meal when they are up to their eyeballs in work. It is super important to remember to eat when you are having a long study sesh. Also do not eat junk food because that will make you tired and irritable.

7. Wash your face.

It is very easy to forget about your skin when you are stressed out at school. Washing your face and taking time to do a mask or something pampering will make all the difference. It will relax you more and it will also help your skin.

8. Plan ahead.

If you know that you have a big test or have plans after school, plan ahead. You will be able to spread your work out rather than cramming all of your activities in one day. Do some homework in lunch, or in the car ride to your activities.

9. Go to bed early.

Although sometimes everyone needs an all nighter to finish their work it is so important to try and go to bed early. You will do so much better and feel so much better with a great nights sleep.

10. Take a day off.

Although this seems like it is very hard if you can it is one of the best things ever. Every weekend try to get all your homework done before Sunday, so you can spend the whole day relaxing. This will make you feel so much better and it will help you prep for the long week ahead.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.

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.

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.
