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.

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.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
