10 Things To Do In Class Instead Of Pay Attention

As I'm sitting in class, obviously not paying attention, I thought "why not come up with a list of other great things to do in class?" Sure we're busy people, but procrastination often leads to some great discoveries elsewhere.

1. Figure out why Martha Stewart went to jail

Maybe I'm the only one, but I really had no idea she even went to jail until I saw a post about it. So of course I have her wiki page up. Honestly, just figure out why any celebrities went to jail.

2. Text your whoever's been on your radar

Nothing like a lil anxiety to make the time go by quicker! See what your boo is doing tonight and if those plans involve you. Also just text people you haven't talked to in forever, it'll kill the time.

3. Read Odyssey articles

See what I did there? Pass your time with a cliche yet fun open letter or better yet, a satirical political post.

4. Take BuzzFeed quizzes!!

My personal favorite. How else would I know what breakfast food I am?

5. Find out what dorms on your campus are haunted

Something you wouldn't always think about to do, but definitely a fun one!! (unless you live in one of the haunted dorms oops)

6. Watch those stupid and unrealistic "tasty" videos

Sure you'll never make any of the food, but at least you can dream.

7. Look up dank memes

Kermit, Obama & Biden, the world is at your fingertips

8. Sleep

If it's a big lecture nobody will notice. (Wear some sunglasses just to be safe)

9. Make a kick ass playlist for the weekend

I know what's on your mind, why not get pumped for the weekend while procrastination this class away?!

10. Look up unsolved crimes and solve them

This one may take a while, but check in to the different mysteries that still plague our society.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
