Keep Calm And Finals On

Being in college you can get stressed easily with balancing everything in your life, but finals week takes a whole other load of stress to deal with. There are a few ways to help relieve stress during this hectic week. This list consists of...

Remove yourself from the stress itself

Students themselves are going to be all over the place so that means ALONE TIME. It might be a bit boring but alone time is the best way to have complete peace TRUST ME. This can mean a good handy dandy bubble bath, a little walk by yourself outside to get some fresh air, or even just a run to Starbucks during your study break.

Do something fun

Although it is best to not always say yes when your friends ask to hang out this week, it is good to catch a break and do something fun. A few ideas can be going out to lunch with your gal pals, walking around the park, or watching some funny YouTube videos while you take a break in the study room.

Hitting the gym

Although it sounds dreading hitting up the gym during stressful times is actually very beneficial. After a good workout, you will feel amazing and think back "wow I really did THAT". It can also become a stress reliever if you end up doing kickboxing because you can go crazy.

SLEEP

I know you usually see everyone staying up 24/7 in the school's library but that can actually affect how you end up doing on the exam. Sleeping will help you and make sure you have a fresh head for when it is time to take the test. Of course, studying your butt off is a given when it comes to finals week, but SLEEP IS NECESSARY.

Hope these few tips were a bit helpful for your finals and best of luck to you!

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.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
