As a girl in college, I know the struggle of having to get up for a class at 7:50 in the morning, especially because I am commuting 45 minutes for that class. So here's a few tips to make your life a little easier while getting ready in the morning. This can apply to any early-morning activities.


1. Utilize the time you have the night before.

One of the best ways to save time in the morning is to take time the night before. Plan your outfit, pack your lunch, take a shower, or just think through all that you have to do in the morning. Now, I know that it doesn't make any sense to be able to do all of your routine at night, but every tiny little bit goes a long way.

2. Drink a full glass of water when you wake up to kick-start your metabolism.

It is important to drink water when you first wake up because it makes you feel more refreshed, it fuels your brain, and flushes out the toxins from your body. Starting your morning this way is hard to beat.

3. Create an exciting morning playlist that ups your mood while you're getting ready.

It can't hurt to make your morning routine a little more fun by dancing and singing along to your favorite songs, especially if you have a long, early-morning commute like I do.

4. Try DIY press-on eyeshadow tattoos.

Personally, I don't wear a lot of makeup, but I have been seeing videos on how to make press-on eyeshadow tattoos, so I decided to try them out. They really do work and are perfect to make the night before. You basically get a square of crafting foam and you cut out a piece in the shape of your eyelid. Then, you pack on your eyeshadow how you would on your actual eye, and then whenever you are ready to use it, you can press the foam onto your eyelid. All you have to do afterwards is blend out the edges a bit. Presto!

5. Hang wrinkled clothes in the bathroom while you shower.

This technique is just like steaming your clothes. It actually does get the wrinkles out and you don't have to lift a finger. This is perfect for a rushed morning.

6. Learn new hairstyles that you can do when you're in a time crunch.

Watch YouTube videos in your free time to get some ideas on some new hairstyles to try, but my personal favorite is a side braid. Quick and easy...and cute!

7. Breakfast on-the-go.

Last but not least, make fruit smoothies the night before and pair them with a granola bar for the perfect on-the-go breakfast for a rushed morning. Also, it never hurts to make a dozen muffins over the weekend to have for breakfast during the week.

Now that it seems “talking” is the new way to date, and will stay that way until another idiotic term is used to describe the people who can’t settle down and just date someone, I feel as if it’s time to go over the unwritten rules of “talking.”

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?
