Countless beach days and summer books have me gazing out to that mysterious ocean so many of us love and wondering why it really would be better to live under the sea. Well, after some logical conclusions, I'm ready to trade in my legs.

1. Shell phones and magic conch shells

Communication just got 1000x more aesthetic.

2. Sea shell bras

3. Or better yet... no bras.

4. Constant mermaid hair

5. You could nap in the bathtub without drowning

6. No need for a summer bod because your curves actually keep you warm

This is just a simple marine mammal fact that I find heart-warming.

7. No legs = No shaving

Having scales never felt so good.

8. You'd be bffs with beluga whales

Look at the precious!

9. AND MANATEES

AKA God's most perfect creature

10. Fresh sushi's probably an everyday thing

The face of someone who knows the sushi is also free.

11. Travel is ridiculously easy

You can literally swim anywhere and you save thousands of dollars on plane tickets!

12. Showers under tropical waterfalls is nbd

13. You can explore the Titanic (and things that have yet to be discovered)

The amount of vintage items you'd find...

14. "Where'd you get that beautiful necklace?" "Oh, a sea witch once stole my voice but it's a souvenir now"

15. Everyone would be hypnotized by your voice

16. Men have to listen when you say no (because you can drown them, obvi)

17. But when you wanted them, it'd be easy.

Because you're a frickin' mermaid?? Who would say no??

18. Everyone would try and take candid photos of you

19. You get to do THIS

There would obviously always be spurts of water accentuating your flowing hair and a perfect rock that jutted out of the ocean for moments like these. Why? Because you're a mermaid.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
