Need Help Preparing For Finals? Look No More!
Ace By Marius

9 AM - 11 AM: Lie in bed thinking about how nice and cozy your blanket feels. Additional time may be added, if you need to think about everything that needs to be done today.

11 AM - 12 PM: Breakfast! Make sure to calculate extra time to go to the grocery store to purchase all your favorite ingredients.

12 PM - 1 PM: Lunch time. Everyone deserves to go out every once in a while, right? Oh, and make sure to stop by Zara on your way home. They have super crazy sales during the holiday season!

1 PM - 2 PM: Post-Lunch Siesta.

2 PM - 3 PM: Make a study list. Pet the cat. Daydream about dinner (don’t forget about that study list). Call best friend. Vacuum rug (don’t forget that study list). Color coordinate entire closet (something about a study list?). Oh, yes, make sure to create a list with all the things you need to do in order of urgency. It’ll help you manage your time better.

3 PM - 3:01 PM: Start working on the first task on your study list (does that really say, “study for one hour"? SQUIRREL!!!).

3:01 PM - 4 PM: Take a relaxing walk outside to give your brain a break. Taking breaks will actually enable your brain to digest all the material better.

4 PM - 5 PM: Recover from your brisk walk with a nice cup of tea.

5 PM - 6 PM: Spend this hour helping out your friends with *their* study anxiety.

6 PM - 7 PM: Dinner

7 PM - 8 PM: Dessert

8 PM - 9 PM: Take a nice bath while you digest your food. Side note: it’s like swimming; don’t dive in till at least half an hour after the last bite, duh!

9 PM - 11 PM: Think about all the exams you have to take in the next few weeks and have a major panic attack.

11 PM: It’s fine, right? Go to sleep. Rest is important for information to stick to your brain!

Next day: Repeat this process

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
