In This Article:

One week until senior year of college begins. 9 more months to do all those things you've been meaning to do since freshman year. Two more semesters to make the most of. Let's do this.

1. Have a quote wall of all the dumb, funny, absurd things you and your roomies say.

I did this freshman year with my roommate and STILL get a kick out of reading it. The memories always come flooding back.

2. Keep a board of corks from all your girls' nights.

3. Road trip.

Get off campus and get lost.

4. Go to a concert or music festival.

These are always the easiest memories for me to look back on and pinpoint how I was feeling at a certain point. We LOVE a good concert. Bonus points if it's country because country concerts undeniably have the best crowds.

5. Take one second videos each day.

I have always wanted to try this and obviously remembering every moment of senior year is worth it.

6. Get to every single football/basketball game.

Make it past the tailgate! You got this!

7. Take advantage of your student discount.

The expiration date is uh ... quickly ... approaching.

8. Make new friends.

Grab a drink with that interesting person you've never gotten a chance to know.

9. Join a random club you're interested in (but may have been embarrassed to join early on!).

Meet people who have similar interests to you.

10. Keep a journal and add just a sentence each day.

You'll be able to look back on each day with a clearer view and highlight all the best moments.

11. Take polaroids.

Those pics are the cutest.

12. Put together a momento of your favorite college memories.

Scrap booking is actually a grueling process, but it's worth it, right?

13. Go on a bar crawl.

No need to explain.

14. Go on a frat house crawl.

Ha ha ha.

15. Revisit the freshman dining hall.

Maybe there's not good food, but let me remind you you once loved to hate that place.

16. Don't be too sappy and make the most of every moment!

You'll be done before you know it! Seriously. Stop crying.

Growing up I have always wanted to own a horse. My grandparents own a well known equestrian facility in Georgia, so I have been riding since I was born. A bond between a person and their horse is a bond so strong that it cannot be broken. Everywhere I went I wanted to be around horses, even forcing my family to go on trail rides during vacations. Horses have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember has taught me great responsibility, as well as 14 things that all equestrians can relate to.

College is super hard. Between working, studying, and having a social life, it feels like a struggle to just keep afloat.

I understand. When you feel like your drowning and there's no way to stay afloat I understand that it feels like everyone else is doing just fine. I understand all the frustration, long nights in the library, and that feeling that you want to just throw in the towel. I understand that sometimes it's too hard to get out of bed because your brain is already filled with too much information to remember. I understand because I am also feeling pretty burnt out.

No Matter How Challenging School Gets, You Have To Put Your Health First — A Degree Won't Mean Anything If You're Dead

Some of the best advice I've ever received was from my social studies teacher in sophomore year of high school. He stated, "If you don't know it at midnight, you're not going to know it for the 8 a.m. exam, so get some sleep."

It's such a simple piece of advice, but it holds so much accuracy and it's something that the majority of college students need to hear and listen to. "All-nighters" are a commonality on college campuses in order to cram in studying for an exam that is typically the next day.

Obsessive Thoughts Keep My Brain Stuck On A Loop And Me Stuck On My Couch

Sometimes my brain just starts turning on an idea and it doesn't want to stop.

I don't know if it is related to my anxiety, perfectionism or depression. I don't know why it happens. It's frustrating, it's painful and it stops me from functioning.
