10 Things To Do Now That Exams Are Over

Do you feel it? That weird feeling of being rested and not

stressed? You know what that means: summer

! The sun is out, the air is warm, and you can finally bring out that summer wardrobe! And best of all: No more school!

You can finally de-stress and take a break -- all the things that you couldn’t do during finals time. I know that you haven’t felt this since last year, so here are a few things that you could do with your new found freedom.

1. First things first: Breathe. Throw yourself a party. Go get a drink. Whatever it is, celebrate: You did it!

2. Say goodbye to all those early morning alarms. Time to catch up on a weeks worth of sleep!


3. Trade in your textbooks for real life people: your social life is back!

4. Eat a proper meal! I think I speak for all of us when I say that we’ve eaten enough cereal and ramen to last a lifetime!

5. Spend some time in the great outdoors (Since the only thing you’ve seen this week is the walls of the library).

6. Actually get dressed, cause who has time to put on more than a sweatshirt and sweatpants during finals.

7. Catch up on all those TV shows that you missed. It's time to stop avoiding all those online spoilers.

8. Plan a trip for you and your friends: what’s summer without a little adventure?


9. Take some 'me' time. You made it through another year: treat yourself!

10. Relax

because it’s summer vacation!

College is a crazy, beautiful, amazing whirlwind. It is highly popularized in television and movies, but not necessarily in the most accurate way. Yes, there's frats, dingy dorms, raging house parties—but there's also a lot that people fail to mention.

1. If you thought that you knew how to study, you're wrong.

All of your classes aren't taught every day, so professors aren't on your case constantly about reading and memorizing material. Once you get back that "questionable" first exam grade, you'll kick it into high gear and figure out what works for you

Girl With Bleached Hair
Tumblr

I've been a bleach blonde for over a year now, and let me tell you, it is a lifestyle. More hair appointments, longer showers, and special shampoo. But it is totally worth it!

1. Mentally preparing yourself to convince your hair dresser that white is the way to go.

2. Or the anxiety of what could go wrong by bleaching your hair at home.

3. You could either become a ginger

4. Or a pixie

5. The face you make in the mirror when you take off your towel to unveil the perfect white strands.

6. Taking a million selfies the day you bleached it, because you know your roots will be back in literally 2 days.

7. Having to get bangs or a big chop because your hair is so damaged.

8. Having orange highlights in between touch-ups.

9. Going out for a drink afterwards to debut your updated look.

Despite the struggles, you love your platinum blonde hair! You make sure Instagram knows it, too. You don't need a filter, because the color is flawless by itself!

I've been at this college thing for almost three and a half years, and while I thought that high school was truly the lowest point of my existence, I'm beginning to realize that it was a walk in the park. Like, I miss the days when the biggest white lie I told my parents was my made up excuse about being late for fourth period. These days, the white lies are a tad more complex, and as ashamed as I am to admit it, I've definitely told a few of these.

NBC Universal

As most of us already know, Friends is one of the greatest television series ever produced. The cast is genius. The humor never gets old. The episodes are relatable and timeless.

I can easily say that I have watched each season at least three times and I belly laugh harder every time. All Friends fans can agree that there are certain lines that form a bond between us and when heard one cannot help but laugh.
