In Conclusion.... JUST HAVE FUN!

College can be very scary place to some people because things really start to become real in your life. Having worries and stressing over the most minor things is all normal. We all go through these phases in life to help us become a better person. Just have fun with it ! College is a time for you to figure out who you really are and start trying all these new things in life.

ENJOY IT NOW! before time flies and its all gone :) 



Take advantage of your free time !

Scheduling is very different in college compared to high school. College gives you the opportunity to choose what classes you want to take and when exactly you want to take. There are times were your schedule can have huge gaps in between two classes. This is perfect for you to take advantage and get some work done.


Here are some tips of what to do during your free time:


  • Grab some food
This is the best time to actually go and eat. Instead of waiting after your three hour class to eat and draining yourself out, this is a perfect time to do it. If you have already eaten you can grab yourself a nice cup of coffee before to boost up some energy in the middle of your day.

  • Study/Finish work

The most productive way to spend some of your free time is to get your homework out of the way. It may not seem exciting but it benefits you from cramming all of your work after the end of your class. Especially if you have a late night class doing your homework after that becomes very tiring. Plus you will be ahead of the game in most of your overload work.


  • Exercise
This can be a very productive way to spend your free time. Having all this time between classes why not just go ahead and get a nice work out done. Most college have nice gyms on campus that is free for student use. Might as well use it and get your workout of the week out of the way. Just beware that only some campus gyms may or may not have showers so reconsidering sitting in your next class after workout can be something to think about.

Some College Humor....


Papers..Papers.. & MORE Papers

Procrastination is one the biggest problems every college student goes through. Leaving things for the last minute just gets out of control when it comes closer to the due date. There are some ways to put to a stop and just get things more efficiently.

Here are some tips to STOP procrastinating:

  • Time Management!
Instead of making things harder on yourself manage your time efficiently. Use your phone and set reminders or have calendar and color code free time and work for yourself. Have a lot of free time between classes? well that is the perfect time to get some work done. It is the best way to go if you can handle a better time management your work will get done on time.

  • Get Help from Others!
Making friends in your class is key. If your stuck on certain projects or papers, its great to make a couple of friends to possibly help you out. Also not only making friends in class is important, but also on campus support services. Every school must have some type of tutoring service that you can go and get help with either papers or projects. Might as well use it if its there. It will make your life so much easier and not having to worry of cramming everything in.

  • Talk to Professors!
Being a "teachers pet" in college is actually a good thing. Talking to your professor about your work that you are unsure of is what every professor loves. They all have certain office hours that you should use proficiently it can actually help you ALOT. Also if professors see that you are trying your hardest in doing your work it can really pay off in the end when your grades come along.
