From The Procrastinator Who'd Rather Do These 15 Things Over Picking Up A Textbook

I'd honestly rather bathe my cat.

From The Procrastinator Who'd Rather Do These 15 Things Over Picking Up A Textbook
Sarah Holliman

Being in college is hard. In most classes, it takes a lot of effort as a student to achieve a decent and passing grade. I’m almost positive that I’ve been told by every single one of my professors not to put assignments off. I tell myself that this week will be different, but it never is. Here is a condensed list of all the things I’d rather do than read my textbook.

1. Watch cute cat videos.

I love all cute animals, but I could watch cat videos all day! They are such smart creatures, but they’re not always that bright. Everyone knows someone with a crazy cat.

2. Find better memes.

Caption this, okay go! My boyfriend is constantly sending me new funny memes. I try to stay a step ahead of him at all times.

3. Scroll through every single social media account I have.

I know I can’t be the only one who will stay on Facebook for hours just to put off studying. I can for real go from watching a touching dog/owner reunion to watching a slow loris eating a rice ball.

4. Play my online farm game.

I get a reward for every solid hour of playtime, and so far I’ve been awarded 82 of those. While I’m playing my farm game, the time is not displayed on my screen so I really have no idea how long I’ve been playing until I manually look to see what time it is.

5. Watch "American Idol" audition videos.

I enjoy watching the audition rounds. Some people think that they’re going to blow the judges out of the water, but it’s the ones who have no idea how talented they are that make the show worth it.

6. Search me on Google.

Has anyone else ever done this? I like to see what actually pertains to me, because most of it pertains to another Sarah Holliman who is an older blonde. Crazy that there are so many people out there with the same name.

7. Give my cat a bath.

Her face is the only caption I need here.

8. Take selfies with my cat.

Cricket deserves all the pets. She also loves to cover up my double chin for me.

9. Go walking with my dog.

Basil is the best boy who deserves all the walks. I don’t always want to leave my bed, but I try to make sure he gets exercise when the weather is nice.

10. Take selfies with my dog.

He may not act amused here, but he actually likes having his picture taken.

11. Take naps.

Cuddling with my best boy>>>anything school related. He makes it so hard to leave for class every morning.

12. Hang out with my friends.

I’d much rather have great conversation and fun times with my friends than study. I value my relationships more than my future at times, and that can be a problem.

13. Travel anywhere else and not come back.

I just want to see everything there is to see in the world. If I could take a few years off of everything and just travel, I would be so happy. Just look at this bench next to a freaking mountain. One day I could say that I sat on that very bench.

14. Clean out my closet.

Seriously, I don’t know why I do this, but for some reason, I would rather clean out my closet at 3 a.m. than study anything in my textbooks. I will find just about anything to do before I’ll actually sit down and study.

15. Fall off a cliff.

This is a joke, but still. You can’t spell “studying” without “dying.”

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.
