26 Things Guaranteed To Improve Your Day
Anorexic Hipster

Having a hard day? Have a serious case of the Mondays? Feeling that mid-afternoon slump? Needing a mental health day? I have the solution to your problems. If you need a smile today, you've come to the right place. Here are 26 ways to improve your day.

1. Go through this self care checklist and do what it tells you to do.

2. Read this article of inspirational Tumblr quotes.

3. Remind yourself that the sun will always rise again.

4. Organize something- make your bed, put away your clothes. Doing something simple can help you feel productive and like you accomplished something, however small.

5. Make a list of five things you're grateful for.

6. Send a silly Snapchat (or three).


7. Make a list of people in your support system. Reach out to one of them.

8. Have a dance party to your favorite tune. This one always gets me dancing.

Or try this one:

9. If you need to get some anger out: throw balled up socks at the wall.

10. If you need a mental health day, take out. Emotional pain is just as legitimate as physical pain.

11. Repeat a positive affirmation to yourself. Print one out and hang it on your wall. Make it your computer background.

Remind yourself that you're complete all on your own:


12. Have a laugh with one of these funny Harry Potter Tumblr posts.

13. Watch a cute panda video.

Like this one:

Or this one:

14. Do this workout to get out tension and frustration.

15. Read this article full of cuteness.

16. Or if you're in a puppy mood, check out these puppies or these ones.

17. Speaking of puppies, check out this puppy livestream.

Dogs not your thing? Try pandas or kittens.

18. Grab a coloring book and some markers and unleash your inner child!


19. Instead of making a list of things to do, make yourself feel accomplished with a "done" list.

20. Play with a pet!

21. Eat a snack.

22. Put on your favorite, comfiest article of clothing.

23. I guarantee you can't make it through these videos without tearing up at the cuteness.




24. Watch an inspirational Ted talk.

Here are some for your inner child.

Here are some to inspire you when life is dark.

25. Watch these videos to remind yourself that you're not alone.



26. Give someone a hug!


I hope that I brought you a smile today! Tell me in the comments what you do to bring a little joy to your day!

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.
