11 Things To Do Instead Of Doing Homework Or Studying

1. Go to sleep.

Being in school is exhausting. Getting up early, going to classes, doing homework and studying takes up a lot of energy. If you're going to procrastinate, get comfy in bed and take a nap.

2. Watch Netflix.

Catch up on an episode... or maybe thirteen episodes of your favorite show. I know I'm not the only one who can binge watch for hours.


3. Go to the gym.

De-stress by going to the gym. Lift weights, run on the treadmill, or bike! Take care of your body.


4. Go on Twitter.

Check to see what your friends are up to, watch funny videos and read funny Twitter moments.

5. Go on Instagram.

Check to see what your friends are doing in picture form, look at pictures of your friends' lunch, watch cute puppy videos and explore tour best friend's roommate's cousin's pictures.


6. Clean your room.

Now you're getting kinda bored. You should sweep/vacuum your floor and get Clorox wipes and wipe down every surface. Do anything to just waste time.


7. Do your laundry.

Usually, you're too busy to do laundry so you have a pile of laundry to do. Now that you're avoiding school work, might as well wash your clothes, dry them and fold/hang them up.


8. Call your mom, dad, and brothers/sisters.

I'm sure you don't call them every single day while you're away at school. Obviously you miss them and they miss you. Call them and catch up to see what's going on in their life.


9. Go to an animal shelter.

It's okay if you're not going to adopt. Spend some time playing with the dogs and cats and cry because they're so cute.


10. Online shop.

Even though you're so broke, why not shop online and spend money that you don't have? Or, you can torture yourself by online window shopping, which is when you look at cute clothes online and add it to your cart just to remove it from your cart.


11. Spend hours on Pinterest.

From nail designs, to DIY's, to planning your wedding, to food recipes, there is so much to explore on Pinterest.

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.
