15 Things To Do Instead Of Writing A Paper
The Odyssey Online

We’ve all been there, dreading a paper, having no clue where to start. Thinking of every possible thing you could do without writing it, while still feeling a little productive. Well, think no further. Here are 15 things you can do instead of writing it.

1. Clean your room.

That's one way to look at it, Anna.

2. Do your hair and makeup.

Try that new make-up tutorial or hairstyle -- at least you'll look good when you finally start your paper.

3. Reminisce and go through old pictures.

This is a great time blower... so many. #tbts

4. Put 743,289 things into your cart on Amazon.

Amazon has literally everything.

5. Google pictures of funny animals.

You won't be disappointed.

6. Do some squats.

Easy way to be productive in a way that doesn't involve writing!

7. Make memes using funny pictures of your friends.

Tip: Avoid quiet areas because you will be laughing obnoxiously.

8. Find a fire Spotify station.

There are so many stations out there. I promise you'll find the perfect one to study to.

9. Use the bee filter on Snapchat.

The voice change makes anything sound funny...

10. Watch a compilation of funny scenes from "The Office."

Or whatever your fav funny show is (but I highly suggest "The Office").

11. Creep on your own social media.

Look back five years into Facebook to see all the statuses that end in "txt it <3"

12. Get Starbucks.

Coffee makes anything and everything better in life.

13. Watch an episode of "Chopped" (or 4).

Get your creative juices flowin' to write that paper... aka Chopped is amazing.

14. Take a power nap.

15-20 minutes ideally... but let's be honest.

15. Accidentally fall asleep without starting your paper at all!

Well, at least you tried (kind of).

So your night probably won’t end with a well written paper, but you will have a slightly more toned butt, and know how to properly cook that weird fruit thing in the "Chopped" basket.

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.
