The social aspects of college are all fun and games, but as we all know, the social aspect is only one part of it and there is only a limited amount of time we can allot to having fun. There is also the wonderful joy of schoolwork and with that comes the dreaded test week. Along with test week comes sleepless nights, overdoses of caffeine, and far too many hours spent in the library. After a week of 4 tests, 3 papers, and 2 quizzes or whatever your week may look like, it is absolutely necessary to take some time to relax once you conquer it all. So, here are some ways you can "treat yoself" at the end of hell week and get your weekend started on a high note.
- Take a nap.
- Push the rest of your schoolwork to the side.
- Netflix binge.
- Eat junk food. Lots of it
- Get yourself a bottle of wine.
- Get your nails done.
- Use a facemask.
- Watch a movie.
- Go for a mom walk.
- Go for a drive with no destination.
- Get a dozen of donuts. Or cupcakes. Or cookies. (something to aid your sweet tooth).
