Studying for the average college student can be v-time consuming and can easily stress us out. It's important to balance out other parts of our lives as well, and take some time for ourselves. This week I decided to make a list of "10 Things I'd Rather Do Than Study." Invest in these ways of procrastination, and enjoy the time of rest.
1. Take a nap.
Who doesn't like naps?! They allow our brains to take a break from those long homework assignments. Treat yo' self, take one, two..hell take three naps if you want to.
2. Take a walk.
Enjoy God's beautiful creation is a great way to relieve some stress and take a breather from those study sessions. If its night time, look at the stars. Day time? Go look at the cloud. Make time to sit and watch the sunset every once in a while.
3. Go out to your favorite fast food place.
Going out to eat at my favorite fast food place is always a great decision after a stressful day of classes. Food always has good company. Who can say no to food?
4. Visit with your favorite people.
Those important people in our lives need attention too, so spending quality time with your friends or loved ones is important.
5. Watch Netflix.
Because binge watching Netflix by yourself in bed is much better than studying. Starting a new series is always better than homework.
6. Take a hot bath while listening to your favorite music.
Because relaxing in a hot bath is a great way to end your day instead of studying. Pop in some John Mayer, Sam Smith, or whatever your heart desires and focus on you!
7. Go shopping.
Retail therapy is sometimes needed.
8. Take your dog to the park.
Taking your furry friend to the park will brighten their day more than yours. They need attention too.
9. Prepare yourself a home cooked meal.
Treating yourself to a healthy meal is sometimes needed after a stressful day.
