5 Things You've Definitely Been Putting Off That You Need To Do Right Now

In the hustle and bustle of everyday life, a lot of us slack on some really basic chores that will make your life easier and more organized. If you're reading this, I am assuming you have some free time, so get to it! Here are some things you should do right now and just get them out of the way.

1. Do your laundry.

Giphy

I am guilty of this sometimes. I push off doing laundry because I have oh-so-many other clothes I could wear right? Right, until you're in a rush or want to wear something that is dirty. Just get up and do it. Have your whole wardrobe at your disposal always and get that intimidating pile in your closet out of the way. You'll feel so much better and check something off of your todo list!

2. Vacuum.

Giphy

Vacuum your house. I know vacuuming isn't anyone's idea of fun, but there is nothing better than a clean home. It is something that needs to be done regularly. It will make your space feel much home-ier and cleaner. There is no downside!

3. Switch out your sheets and towels.

Giphy

You sweat when you sleep, and your towels might not be fully dry every time you use them. This means funky smells and breeding grounds for bacteria. If you have acne prone skin or have sensitive skin, this tip is even more important for you. Your body repairs itself while you sleep and your skin is most susceptible to the environment right after a shower. Take the time to make sure your sheets and towels are clean so that you can be happy, clean and healthy!

4. Wash your face.

Giphy

In conjunction with the previous statement, wash your face! It baffles me how many of my friends and peers are so ok with falling asleep with their makeup on. I could not even dream of doing that. Treat your skin right, and it will make you feel better and look better. Sleeping with your makeup on is so bad for your skin and doesn't give it the time to regenerate overnight which could lead to collagen being produced less frequently which means quicker aging. Not to mention the pore-clogging makeup that will without a doubt make you break out eventually. Do yourself a quick and easy favor, and wash your face.

5. Take a deep breath.

Giphy

It may feel like you have a lot to do right now, you probably do, but you've got this. Take a deep breath, prioritize, and get things done. You've got this.

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

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.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
