How To Avoid Homework At All Costs

With Thanksgiving break just around the corner, there's not much on my mind other than apple pie and being at home with my family. I feel like a lot of people are in this same slump where they've run out of energy to do anything and everything school related. Finals are way far out on the horizon. Morale is low. Energy is almost nonexistent. That being said, there are plenty of ways to spend your time besides doing homework or studying.

1. Go for run.

OK, OK, this might be a little aggressive for some, but even a brisk walk could work. Just get outside and enjoy the fresh fall air.

2. Bake something.

Before baking though, spend some time on Pinterest searching for the most exotic type of chocolate chip cookie you can find. Then go to the grocery store and take your time there before actually starting the baking process. And maybe, just maybe, you can eat your freshly baked good while doing a little homework.

3. Watch some Netflix.

One of my favorite things to do is rewarding myself with an episode of my favorite shows on Netflix. This can be anything from One Tree Hill to Bob's Burgers (personally I opt for the 43 minute episodes because it means less time studying).

4. Shop online.

Now is a great time to peruse all 51,826 articles of clothing online at Forever 21.

5. Make a Christmas list.

If you don't feel like spending money of your own, create a Christmas list that you can send to your mom, dad, grandma and anyone else you can think of. You can easily spend a solid afternoon on this task alone, and the sky's the limit.

6. Take a Buzzfeed quiz.

There are so many things you may not even know about yourself until you take those fun quizzes on Buzzfeed. Which Jonas brother is your spirit animal? What type of Starbucks drink are you based off your Zodiac sign? How old are you according to your favorite type of cheese?

7. Write an Odyssey article.

Yes actually while I'm writing this I should really be working on my English presentation, studying for a Spanish test and reading for my law class.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
