9 Ways To Prepare For Spring Semester

In This Article:

I know that the fall semester just ended and most of us, including myself, want to sleep, However, when you're in college that is impossible, you got to keep moving if you want to be ahead in the game. Here is a short and sweet list on how to prepare for Spring Madness.

Make a schedule of your classes on a planner

By now you should have made your class schedule for the upcoming semester, get it written into your planner and memorize it.

Switch your fall/winter clothes for winter/spring clothes

Nothing says preparation like updating your college wardrobe to the latest season. Not only does it make you feel successful, but it takes a big burden off your chest before Spring Break.

Double check friends and/or ratemyprofessor.com before finalizing the class schedule

If you get a bad vibe before taking the class drop it, the earlier you drop it the better off you are. Double check with friends to see if the professor is good.

Wash rugs and bed sheets before classes start

Did you know you can wash your rugs? Neither did I! No wash your rug so it is smelling fresh for the new semester. It is also a great time to wash your bed sheets to get of last semester's tears.

If you have accommodations, email your professor the week before you get back

If you have accommodations, get access from the Accessibility Center, then send the paper to all of your professors. The sooner you email it in, the better of you are and the better chances you have of talking about your accommodations.

This break is good for burning papers and selling textbooks you won't need anymore. However, don't overcharge for your used textbooks.

Relax

Sleep

Sleep the finals away.

Binge-watch the latest TV Shows before you go back

It's a month long break! Enjoy it because once you get back, no more binge-watching The Office.

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.

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.

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.
