10 Reasons Every College Student Needs Online Classes To Survive

1. You only go to school half as much...

I just registered for classes and thankfully I was able to get some online classes! Not only are online classes amazing for my sanity, but they're also great for my education. Trust me, take online classes!

1. You only go to school half as much...

Everybody knows that freshman year is full of 8 a.m. classes, and sophomore year gets a little better and so on. Online classes allow you to go to school only two days a week instead of four or five. Hello self care and sleep!

2. The profs tend to be way nicer...

3. You actually stick to the syllabus...

If you're like me, you absolutely despise going off the syllabus. Snow days don't mess with the schedule. Things really don't change.

4. You can go at your own pace...

Most of my online classes have everything uploaded so you can go at your own pace. Yes, there are deadlines but you can prepare for way longer.

5. It's less intense...

You don't have to wake up, drive to campus, deal with people over and over again. It's all online so a ton of anxiety is stripped away.

6. Your classmates are nice AF!

We all know how the discussions go. Everyone loves everything you say because it's too much work to disagree. We love a nice, easy "classroom" discussion.

7. You learn more...

I've always ended up teaching myself but in online classes, that's literally what you have to do. You learn so many skills that classroom teaching doesn't teach. Time management, communication skills, and so many more skills have come to me from taking online classes.

8. You don't have to leave your bed...

9. You can finish it early...

Since most online classes are posted in advance, you can finish it early so you don't have to worry about it anymore!

10. It's cheaper...

The class cost may be the same, BUT you don't have to pay for parking...

If you have been following me for a long time, then you know I write about two main things: relateable articles and communication media based articles. Now, it is time for me to combine the two. For those of you that don't know, I am a radio DJ at IUP, and I DJ for a show called BPM (Beats Per Minute). It is an EDM, or electronic dance music, based show and I absolutely love it.

6 Things Owning A Cat Has Taught Me
Liz Abere

Owning a pet can get difficult and expensive. Sometimes, their vet bills cost hundreds of dollars just for one visit. On top of that, pets also need food, a wee wee pad for a dog, a litter box with litter for a cat, toys, and treats. Besides having to spend hundreds of dollars on them, they provide a great companion and are almost always there when you need to talk to someone. For the past six years, I have been the proud owner of my purebred Bengal cat named Spock. Although he's only seven years and four months old, he's taught me so much. Here's a few of the things that he has taught me.

It's fun to see all of the selfies on social media, they are everywhere. I see pictures with pouty lips, duck lips and pucker lips. I see smokey eyes, huge fake lashes and nicely done nose jobs, boob jobs and butt lifts. Women working out in spandex, tiny tops and flip flops. I see tight abs and firm butts, manicured nails and toes, up dos and flowing hair. "Wow", I think to myself," I could apply tons of make-up, spend an hour on my hair, pose all day and not look like that. Maybe I need a longer stick!"
