10 Good Habits To Have In College
PEXELS

I have only been in college for a little while but I know having good habits are important. When in college, you want to minimize the number of bad habits you learn and replace them with something that helps you be successful. Here are 10 habits you should try in college:

1. Have A Bed Time.

Sleep is an important part of college. You may have classes early in the morning and you would not want to miss the class that is costing you a lot of money.

2. Eat Meals At The Same Time Each Day.

If it is possible, try to eat at the same time each day. That way, you can work around your meal time and not get hungry while doing your homework.

3. Take Notes By Hand.

I understand that it is easier to take notes on a computer, but writing the notes makes them easier to remember. You can always type them later after you write them.

4. Get Assignments Done Early.

The sooner you get assignments are done, the more free time you have. With that tie you can write, read, hang out with friends, and whatever else you want to do.

5. Wake Up A Little Earlier.

When you wake up a few minutes before it is time for you to get ready, it gives you time to think about your day. You get start your day off with positives thoughts instead of just getting up to get ready.

6. Make Your Bed When You Get Up.

Coming back from classes with a nice and neat bed can be so satisfying. All you have to do is lay down and close your eyes.

7. Keep Your Desk Clean.

Having a clean desk makes it more appealing to start working. When you have a neat space you can do your homework without any distractions.

8. Go Outside.

A little bit of nature can make any day go better and chances are your campus is probably beautiful.

9. Drink Water.

Staying hydrated throughout the day makes you feel better.

10. Make Time For Your Friends.

I know college make you busy but make time for the people who matter.


Hopefully, these 10 habits will make college life easier for you.

It’s everyone’s favorite time of year. Christmastime is a celebration, but have we forgotten what we are supposed to be celebrating? There is a reason the holiday is called Christmas. Not presentmas. Not Santamas. Not Swiftmas. Christmas.

What many people forget is that there is no Christmas without Christ. Not only is this a time to spend with your family and loved ones, it is a time to reflect on the blessings we have gotten from Jesus. After all, it is His birthday.

I would like to represent the girlfriends out there who disagree with her standpoint -- the girlfriends who would be more than happy to receive any of these gifts from their boyfriends.
