15 Cool Things To Do While Procrastinating For Finals Week
Huffington Post

Every college student dreads hearing the phrase it’s finals week. Those three little words cause stress, anxiety, and several sleepless nights. But everyone still needs some downtime during this week. Here are some cool ideas when procrastinating or taking a break from finals:

Continue to procrastinate. Why break a habit if it works for you?

Binge watch a new Netflix series. It’s even better if it has hour long episodes and at least 15 episodes per season.

Clean out your closet. No time like the present to clean out all of the clothes you haven’t worn since high school.

Read the latest Facebook drama. Might as well since there’s so much of it. It might make you feel better.

Paint a canvas. It’s even better if you have to go to Hobby Lobby to buy all of the materials first.

Try a new Pinterest recipe. Bring out your chef skills during a time you probably shouldn't, but feel like you need to anyway.

Stay on YouTube for at least three hours. Just start watching music videos and somehow ending up on makeup tutorials.

Go online shopping. Treat yo self. You’re finishing the semester anyway.

Reorganize your pantry. The most menial tasks are heaven when you have another way more important things to do.

Go to the beach. Take a trip. It’s not like you need to be doing other things. You’re fine.

Adopt a puppy. Your emotional state might be crazy, so get a new friend.

See how much caffeine you can drink in a day. Coffee, soda, whatever. You didn’t need to sleep anyway.

Don’t sleep. Once again, why sleep when you could do anything else above?

Cry. You don’t need your sanity anyway.

Survive. It’s only one week. Then you can do all of these things as much as you want during the summer.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
