If there's anything us college students don't look forward to, it's definitely packing for school. Packing for school can be the most annoying thing on this planet if you don't stay organized. It can also go completely, and horribly wrong when you're unpacking if you pack TOO much. So, for those of you who just need a few excuses to delay your packing process, here's some things we can do to distract ourselves from packing.

1. Hangout with your friends from your hometown!

Now that summer is coming to an end, we're all going back to school and so are our friends. We spend most of the summer working and finally, right before school, (and right before we have to pack) there are a few end of the summer bbq's and hangouts planned that you have to go to. Chances are we're always going to spend a few nights out with our friends from our hometown for one last hoorah before we go back to school! (Then we're going to pack of course.)

2. Sleep, a lot.

Many of us spent most of the summer working our lives away, so when we get some free time we seem to sleep most of our day away. It almost seems like it's all you'll ever do once you finally get some free time after working two jobs. Now that you get some time to relax, your bed feels like another world that you never want to leave. Unfortunately, you'll eventually have to give up your bed for the difficult task of folding every single piece of clothing. But, it may take you a second to get out of bed if you love your bed as much as I do.

3. Run some last minute "back-to-school" errands.

We all like to do some back to school shopping. New shoes, clothes, or even some toiletries are probably on the list. Who doesn't like a little shopping? Shopping makes the world go round. It soothes the soul, and it sure as hell is better than packing. But then again, just make sure you don't buy too many things. (Then you'll have to pack them all.)

4. Download some new music for the trip to school.

The 18-hour drive is going to be extremely long without any music to listen to. Make sure you update your iTunes library to the best music out there because driving without good music is like going to a 3D movie without having the 3D glasses and no sound. Downloading new music for the trip to school is key. Mostly also because you won't have time to download music when you're at school anyways because homework, exams and work will take over your life. Oh, and don't forget to add that new frank ocean album to your playlist too, I heard it was lit.

5. Binge watch your favorite show on Netflix.

I'm guilty of this more than anyone, but if there is anyway to distract yourself it's through binge watching Netflix. Whether it's two or three episodes, sometimes you can't resist what might happen next in that new show you just started watching this morning. It's okay, just tell yourself one more episode and (maybe) you can get back to packing.
