It's that time of the semester again - here's ten activities to partake in while you're procrastinating studying.
1. Literally watching anything on Netflix.
Always wanted to binge watch House of Cards? Been meaning to rewatch American Horror Story? Watched everything else and all that's left is the documentary section? Go for it.
2. Taking a nap.
Whether its in your dorm room, in the library (you had the intention of being productive, right?) or anywhere else, you can always use the excuse that it's for your health.
3. Enjoying the last days of nice weather.
You're going to be stuck in the depressing months of winter soon, you might as well get outside!
4. Watching dog/cat videos.
A study proved that this physically makes you happier, and they're just so cute. Highly recommend corgi videos specifically - they're potatoes with legs.
5. Doing fall things.
As mentioned before, this season's going fast. So go pick some apples, carve a pumpkin, jump in some leaves while you can!
6. Shop online.
Treat yo self.
7. Read a book.
Get away from reality for a little bit and go through a roller coaster of emotions as you get attached to characters.
8. Hang out with your roommate.
They can either be your best friend or your worst enemy, and bonding with them can sometimes help towards that goal of best friend.
9. Make something.
Painting, writing a poem, doing a craft, whatever it is - you'll also have proof that you were productive in a different way during the time you were supposed to be studying.
10. Give yourself some credit!
Midterms are stressful for everyone. Taking a break from studying isn't a crime and it actually improves your mental health and overall performance. So remind yourself that you got this every once in a while, because you do!
