Finals are right around the corner, and we all know how stressful this time of the year is so here are 10 pictures to help relieve your stress:
Every store has their own list of what you need and you’ve reached a point where you can’t decide which one is right anymore.
Ads after ads, coupons after coupons, you go shopping all the time and hope you get the best deal.
Buying bins after bins and hoping you have enough for all the essentials
You can’t just take your entire room and place in your dorm. You need to figure out what you need.
You can’t just take your entire room and place in your dorm. You need to figure out what you need.
You have too many clothes and you don’t want to forget your favorite pair of sweatpants.
You knew that top was somewhere, turns out it was in your sister’s dresser.
You know what you need and despite what your parents say yes you need that poster.
If they don’t live by you, the discussion of who’s bringing what becomes harder.
While overpacking is a thing you’re scared you’ll forget something. You go over what you packed in your head a hundred times.
You thought packing made you nervous but here comes move in day, this makes packing look like nothing

Every kind of tea has its own personal benefits for you, so you can never go wrong with a cup of tea while sick. Different teas provide you with different nutrients, and the more nutrients your body has, the better it will feel. My personal favorite flavor of tea is vanilla honey tea.

I have to say, in my experience of getting sick, making sure that I am getting enough sleep has always helped in my process of feeling better. One thing to be careful of is to be sure that you aren't getting too much sleep because that could opposite effects.

The important thing to remember about antibiotics is to also take probiotics to balance it out and to help you boost your immune system in the future.
A lot of times, being sick also means having a weak stomach, so eating light foods like soup is always the best route to take until your stomach is strong enough for more solid foods. Also, try to eat toast or crackers with your soup to help settle your stomach.
Finally, staying in the dorms may be one of the factors in your lack of healing. If a parent can come and get you, or if there is any way for you to go home, you should take advantage of this. Don't worry about missing class, if you email your professors and/or have a doctor's note, they will most likely be understanding.
