12 Reasons To Be Excited For Summer
hercampus

Finally, the spring semester is almost over. That can only mean one thing... summer. This summer is probably the most needed summer in a very long time. No papers, lots of homemade food, and no more stress. Along with that, there are plenty of things to look forward to, such as:

1. The beach, obviously.

Nothing better than being on the beach with your friends, either tanning or going in the ocean.

2. Cute summer outfits.

High waisted shorts and a cute flowy crop top are definitely the way to go.

3. Being tan.

Who doesn't love being tan?

4. No more boots!

Boots are nice and all, but flip flops, sandals, and sneakers are definitely better.

5. Ice cream.

Having ice cream during the winter is fine, but it is so much better when it is hot out.

6. Staying out late.

Since there is no school to worry about waking up for, staying out as late as you want is the thing to do.

7. Unlimited naps.

Again, no school during the day means so much time to catch up on the needed sleep from staying out all night.

8. Sunsets and sunrises.

Waking up early for the sunrise and then making a point to watch the sunset is such a great thing to do and not to mention, Instagram worthy.

9. Iced coffee, iced tea, lemonade etc.

I drink iced coffee year round, but during the summer it is so much more satisfying.

10. Freckles.

Along with being tan, everyone's freckles start to come out.

11. Music.

The pre-made Spotify summer playlists are very helpful for us lazy people.

12. Outdoor concerts.

Sitting on the lawn at concert venues during the summer is one of the best feelings.


Happy summer!

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

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?

Who could be a better friend than your own sister?

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.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
