1. Sleeping

Come on, who doesn't love to sleep? I nap like its my job and feel great afterward.

2. Eating

Everyone loves to eat. Eating is the perfect way to avoid doing homework.

3. Working

Jobs are important for college students. Having that extra money let's you have fun. It is also a nice distraction from school.

4. Having a nice cold drink

A nice beer can help your stress. It's also great for having fun. It definitely beats doing homework.

5. Driving home

A 2 hour drive home results in seeing friends and family. The drive there guarentees traffic jams and angry driving. Still, it's better than homework.

6. Petting puppies

Look at those faces! Puppies are the ultimate distraction and stress reliever.

7. Watching trashy TV

Reality Tv is the best homework distraction. You don't have to use much of your brain and you can just relax.

8. Baking cookies

Cookies are amazing. They're the best homework snack.

9. Doing laundry

Laundry is boring, but when you're done you get fresh warm clothes to cuddle up in.

10. Shopping

I love shopping. It is my life. Even though I don't always have money for it, window shopping is acceptable too. Just looking at clothes and household items makes me feel great.

10 Truths About Being In A Sorority

I remember my freshman year oh so well. I remember feeling terrified the night before orientation. The one thing that I dreaded the most was not the new people, the new environment, or even the academic pressure. I was dreading having to talk to sorority girls about Recruitment. I remember cutting off and avoiding any Rho Gamma/Panhellenic Officer that came my way during First Week. I looked at them like they had asked me to cut my arm off whenever they asked me if I wanted to rush. To be honest, I did not even know what rush was, but I knew that I did NOT want to be a part of it. To me, it was dumb. It was a waste of money. It was a waste of my time.

And guess what? I did not rush my freshman year. I spent the first half of my freshman year isolating myself from everyone on campus. I spent all of my time in the library, and then (since I was a commuter) went back home once my work was finished.

Tiana would no doubt be disappointed in the food our cafeteria has to offer.

And hopefully she would cook for everyone in her dorm.

She definitley would not take any 8:00 am classes because she would be up late baking and cleaning up the communal kitchen that are available in every dorm.
