Getting back into the school regimen is probably one of the hardest things to do after a long relaxing summer. Now instead of going to bed at 3 a.m and waking up at 12 p.m, we will be getting up at 7 a.m for long classes. Ah, I can already hear the hoodies and yoga pants calling my name for an easy outfit every morning. Gone are the stress-free nights of not worrying about exams, quizzes and assignments and returned are the nights spent cramming in studying and work. It's not all bad though, many of us return to friends from college and are able to spend time with some of the people closest to us, and we will always make the best of it. Though adjusting to the return to school may take a little time, here are just a few ways to make the return just a bit easier:

1. Get a new calendar.

Organizing all of your assignments, exams and work onto a calendar always makes getting things done one hundred percent easier and faster. Dry erase calendars work the best.

2. Use sticky notes.

Anytime I really need to remember something, I write it down on a sticky note and post it where I will undoubtedly see it.

3. Start correcting your sleep schedule.

Even if you are able to stay up late, try and get to bed just a bit earlier to set your internal clock.

4. Set an outfit out the night before.

I mean most of the time, appearance isn't much of a priority for tired college students, but if you're ever having one of those "i want to look classy today" days definitely pick an outfit the night before.

5. Stay organized.

Keep one particular place for everything school related throughout the semester. This will help ensure that you won't misplace that important assignment or book.

6. Find a specific place to study.

Having only one place you plan to study in will help you get focused, and you know when you're in there that's all you are supposed to do.

7. Start drinking tea in the morning.

Drinking tea is a great way to wake up in the morning.

8. Make sure there's room on your laptop.

Delete some old no longer needed assignments off of your computer and clean up your desktop to make everything easy and accessible.

9. Keep your binders, folders and tablets neat.

Use sticky notes or organizational tabs to keep all your work dated and in order.

10. Study a few days in advance.

I know this has been said a million time sb professors, but it is so true. Instead of cramming just do a bit of studying each night and it truly does make it easier to retain and learn.

11. Don't stress.

College is meant to be some of the best years of our lives, so let's not kill ourselves with work. Go out with friends and have fun too.
