11 Things To Do Before Final Exams Start

In This Article:

School is wrapping up and summer is coming! We have about two weeks until finals, so most of the tests and projects have been wrapped up. We have two weeks of peace before the stress of finals hit us. So if you're finding yourself bored in this time period, here is a list of things to do to keep yourself busy.

1. Take a nap.

You finally have some time to catch up on your sleep! Use it.

2. Read a book.

It's hard to make time to read during school, so use this time to make a dent in your 'To Read' list!

2. Binge watch a show.

We usually do this regardless of school work... but now you have an excuse to do it!

4. Go workout.

Sorry, now you have no excuses.

5. Write.

Write a story. Write a poem. Write a list.

6. Eno.

Grab some friends and a book and go enoing!

7. Go tanning.

Get a head start before the summer break.

8. Throw a frisbee.

Grab some hall mates and head to the quad for a game of Ultimate frisbee.

9. Bake some cookies.

Bake some cookies that you can then eat while you study for your finals.

10. Call your parents.

Call your parents! They'll appreciate it and you will too once the conversation is over.

11. Have a game night.

Have a Smash Night. Pull out the Cards Against Humanity and Monopoly. Or if you live in Athens, head to the Rook and Pawn.

Whatever you decide to do, make sure to enjoy your free time before your finals!!

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.
