10 Things To Do Instead of Your Homework
By U Essay

There comes a time when we have been doing our homework for too long and would rather be doing anything else but working towards our degree. I understand we are paying thousands of dollars to ensure we have some chance of obtaining a job after college, but sometimes we just need to take a break and do anything but our homework. So here are 10 things you can do besides actually doing your homework:

1. Order a pizza and eat the entire thing.

2. Poor a glass of wine and drink it while eating your pizza.


3. Look up Grumpy Cat memes because he's the only one who understands you.

4. Catch up on your favorite TV show, and by catch up I mean watch a whole season.

5. Take selfies with your best friend who is also procrastinating on her homework.

6. Go for a run. You have to work off that pizza after all.

If you're anything like me, you can't do homework if you just ate a big deal of cheesy goodness or have a busy mind. What better way to work off the pizza and clear your mind than going for a run?

7. You just ran so you deserve a nap.

You are probably very tired from your run and you won't be able to focus on your homework if you are tired, right? The only way to do your homework to the best of your ability is by taking a nap and waking up with energy.

8. You'll wake up from your nap feeling wide awake and very productive, so you will have the energy to clean your room.

I don't know about you, but I know I can't get homework done if my room is a mess. I'll be too concerned with wondering where all of my belongings are and too worried about cleaning my cluttered floor that I won't be able to focus on my homework.

9. Call your parents and tell them about your day.

One of the most important things a college student can do is keep in touch with their parents. It's important to contact your family throughout the week so they know what's going on in your life and so you know what's going on in their life. What better day to give them a call than today?

10. Have another glass of wine and go to bed. You can deal with the homework tomorrow.

After such a busy day, it's heading into the late hours of the night and it's important that you get a full night's rest. Relax, put your homework away, poor a glass of red, and enjoy the rest of your night before going to bed.

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.

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.
