health flash

Fitness is something that is important to college students but sometimes hard to find time to do. There are many simple ways to workout that fits your time schedule and your budget. Here are some of the most efficient ways to workout on a college schedule and budget.

1. Go for a walk


I am lucky enough to live near a high school that has a track. This is perfect for running, walking, or strength training. You can also use the bleachers to workout as well.

2. Play tennis

The high school near my house also has tennis courts. Tennis is a great way to stay in shape and have fun while doing it.

3. Pure Barre

Most college campuses have a barre studio near it. Barre is a great way to stay in shape. It really works your body and is a fun way to exercise.

4. Yoga

Most college campuses offer classes, whether it is in the school gym or throughout campus. This is a super fun way to stay in shape and listen to good music.

5. The Gym

This is a classic way to stay in shape. Every school probably has gym equipment in the dorm, the college offers a gym, and there are usually a lot of gyms around campuses as well. The gym offers many things and is an overall good workout.

6. Strength Training

Keep a pair of weights in your dorm or house and you can easily do many different exercises from the comfort of your own home.

7. Abs

Abs are also another great exercise that you can do from the comfort of your own home. Google or Pinterest different ab exercises and you will never be bored with the workout.

8. Bring your high school sports equipment to school

Continue to play the sports that you used to play in high school. Bring your eqpuipment to school and play with friends or toss the ball yourself.

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.

College Informations

Most of us have already started the spring semester, and for those of you who haven't started yet, you suck.

It seems like coming back from winter break wouldn't really be a break all things considered, since we all come back to school and pick up right where we left off. We know exactly what to expect, yet we're unprepared every single time.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.
