For a Little R&R

After finals, there is nothing you need more than a little rest and relaxation, what a better way to do that than taking a bath. Now, the perfect bath is a well-planned art, so make sure you have all these items on deck to destress.

1. Bath Bomb


If you are taking a bath without a bath bomb, why even bother. Lush has probably the best bath bombs ever, not to mention bubble bars or bath oils, but many other companies make their own version if you are not able to get your hands on one from Lush.


2. Candle


Nothing screams rest and relaxation like a scented candle. Match your candle to your bath bomb to be extra fancy, or just light them all up and fill your bathroom with a cozy glow.


3. Robe


Don't let the comfort end after your bath, make sure you have a super fluffy robe to hang out in after your relaxing soak.


4. Scented Lotion


Make sure to seal in all the moisture from your Lush bath bomb by moisturizing after the bath. Use a scented lotion to make sure the scent lasts and so does your chill.


5. Entertainment


Since you probably do not want to be alone with you post-finals panic, make sure to bring some relaxing entertainment to fill the silence. Try playing music or reading a book, preferably not a textbook.


6. Bath Pillow


After all that stress you totally need a place to rest your head and the hard ledge of the bath just won't cut it. Try a bath pillow like this, to make your soak that much more comfortable.


7. Facemask


If you are anything like me you eat terribly during finals. All the greasy food and sugar combined with stress won't leave your skin feeling great, so try a face mask to help it.


8. Hair Mask


While you are at it might as well do a hair mask as well. My favorite hair masks have argon oil because they leave your hair super soft and smelling great


9. SipCaddy


This contraption gives you a handy cup or snack holder while you are in the bath. If you ever didn't know you needed something, it is this, now all you need is a drink.


10. Drink


Sipping a mug of tea is sure to enhance your experience while steeping in the bath. Depending on how stressful you finals week was you might need something a little stronger if you are 21 that is.


11. Snack

It's the holiday season, AKA the time of the year where I completely give up on being healthy. Bring your favorite snack with you to really make the experience the best it can be.


Happy holidays and good luck on finals if you aren't already done. Destressing is important, so make sure to give yourself the break you need.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

Bucket List To Live In The Now

Find excitement in your life and start exploring wherever you are right here, right now.

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

Great Value Colleges

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.

The winters at Kent are brutal, and while the heated sidewalks and some great snow boots are always a help, there’s no chance you won’t bust it on the ice at least once in your four plus years at school.
