11 Things I'd Rather Be Doing Instead of Studying

We're all guilty of it, we put off our studying in any way we can possibly think of. Here are just a few ideas on what to do when you're procrastinating your studying.

1. Netflix

...to state the obvious.

2. Browse Facebook

Nothing like resurfacing your friends' old, embarrassing pictures.

3. Online shop

Because it's fun to imagine you can buy all the things.

4. Go to the grocery

Even though adult things are no fun.

5. Cook anything

Cooking is very hard.

6. Read a dictionary

Like why not?

7. Wash my hair 500 times in a row

For any girl, you know this would basically be torture.

8. Wash all the nasty, dirty dishes

Nothing like old food stuck on the dishes from 2 weeks ago.

9. Figure out everything in Excel

Technology is hard.

10. Workout

That's a hard pass for me normally.

11. Clean

Only if I'm really desperate.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.
