We’re back for a new year! Leaves are changing colors, we’re spending all our food money on Starbucks, and pretty soon we will need a sweater all day long, not just in the morning. It’s a time for fresh starts, and if you’re like me, you really want to start the year off right. Here’s how!
1. Go to a football game!
Tailgate and show some school pride! If you’ve never been to football game before, cross it off your to-do list and make it to one of many home games this fall. It's a big part of the whole college experience - and the only time you'll be able to get great seats for a really low price.
2. Enjoy the outdoors!
Campus is beautiful in the fall — stop to pay attention once in a while. Enjoy your pumpkin spice latte with no regrets. Carve pumpkins and stash them in your apartment courtyard for others to enjoy!
3. Limit yourself on campus food!
Don't get burned out on the best food on campus too early. There's only so much Twisted Taco and Chick-fil-a you can take. Space it out so you don't hate what was once your favorite food by Christmas. Even though we want to deny it, and no matter how good it is, we all know its unhealthy.
4. Use the library!
We all make plans to stay on top of studying in the beginning of the semester... actually do it! Don’t wait until finals roll around to finally visit the library - it's not a bad place to be. Find your study spot early on in the semester and stick to it. You'll actually study and know the best study spots - that means less time running around the 3rd floor trying to find an open chair mid-finals week.
5. Join a new club!
Life gets boring and slow if you're not busy enough. Expand your horizons, meet new people, and try something new by joining a new RSO.
