11 YouTube Channels For When You're Procrastinating
Huffpost.com

We've all done it. We spend hours in front of our computers watching YouTube videos and telling ourselves, "Just one more video." Procrastination at its finest. Whether it's putting off that essay or ignoring the chapter you need to read, YouTube has a plethora of videos at your fingertips to distract you. It's okay. It'll get done eventually. So here's eleven of the most addicting YouTube channels to fulfill all of your procrastination needs.

1. Cat videos

Need I say more? This isn't really a channel, but YouTube is filled with an abundance of adorable and hilarious cat videos to watch at your leisure.

2. Miniature Space

This channel, a personal favorite, it dedicated to making tiny food in tiny kitchens with, you guessed it, tiny utensils. It's adorable and oddly satisfying.

3. Dr. Sandra Lee (aka Dr. Pimple Popper)

Admit it. You'd be lying if you said you haven't fallen victim to watching one of her procedures. There's just something about all of that gross stuff coming out of that disturbingly large bump. You can't look away.

4. CathyMay15

You may remember her from a video that went viral of her singing something called "Boom Boom Way". Her videos are hilarious and her message to her haters is actually pretty inspiring.

5. Makeup tutorials

Even if you only wear makeup once every three months (I mean, 8 AM's are killer. Am I right??), you're still going to watch hours upon hours of these pretending you're going to try them one day.

6. Creepypasta

There's something about watching scary videos while sitting home alone. No matter how scared you get, you just keep watching. Oh well, Slenderman still isn't as scary as that exam tomorrow.

7. Vlogbrothers

John and Hank Green post an assortment of videos about literally everything under the sun. They can be quite educational, but with a good amount of stupidity mixed in.

8. Buzzfeed

Okay, c'mon. You can go from watching videos about guys trying things girls have to endure to dogs eating brunch in just a few videos. You can get lost here.

9. DIY Videos

You can pretend like you're going to make that bird feeder all you want, but you're really just procrastinating. But, it's still fun to watch people make stuff, even if you're going to save it and never actually do it. Or try it and fail. Those are entertaining too.

10. Miranda Sings

Okay this girl is just hilarious. She tries things you'd never dream of trying and makes hilarious music videos. You could just watch her face for hours.

11. TED Talks

These are actually really motivational and you can really learn a lot. So you can procrastinate by pretending like you're doing something meaningful. And you'll probably learn something in the process!

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
