10 Things I Can’t Wait To Do When This Semester Is Over

I feel like every student hits a point, inevitably, in the semester where we just can’t wait to be all done. Add in the fact that I am a Senior with graduation so close yet so far, and you can understand why I am so excited for the semester to be done. So here are 10 things students look forward to doing after the semester is done.

1. Sleep

I am so looking forward to the day after this semester is done when I can sleep in and not hurry to work or school or whatever it is and just enjoy the beauty of my bed.

2. Shop with my momma

I really miss having time to shop, and even more so shopping with my momma. Especially with Christmas shopping on the horizon.

3. Watching TV

I never really watch TV but for some reason the idea of sitting on the couch doing such a mindless activity sounds like a dream come true.

4. Sit on the beach

Even though I live by the bay, I always miss my Southern California beaches…I need my sea salt.

5. Disneyland

I love the Holiday season and the Happiest Place on Earth is even happier when its all dressed up in the Holiday cheer.

6. Read

I read all. the. time. BUT…I miss being able to read for fun and reading completely to my leisure. Throw in a fireplace and cozy weather and I’ll be the happiest girl around.

7. Coffee dates

The cold weather coming up is kind of depressing when you know you have midterms and papers and finals. But, when you can look forward to cold weather activities and coffee dates, it’s the best kind of weather there is.

8. Driving

I really miss going on drives and singing in the car. Don’t judge.

9. Being with Family

I miss hanging around the house when my family is there and not having a million things to do for school. I am going to really love the simple kinds of days that comes with break.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.
