4 Things To Crush Writer's Block
Odyssey

I tend to have a lot of writer's block. I sometimes don't know what to write for my articles. If you don't know what writer's block is, I'll tell you. Writer's block is when you don't know what you are really going to write about. Or you have a clog in your head that you can't seem to type something out. It's really a bad thing to have. But I have a couple little things to help you get over that hump of writer's block. Here are the four things that help you with writer's block.

1. Sleep

Sleep really helps you think. Sleep is the best thing that a brain needs. If you are having writer's block, do this and you might really wake up with dope ideas. Sleep relieves you from so much stress because you are literally getting it all out when you sleep. Isn't that a good thing?

2. Play a sport you like or go exercise

This really helps your mind get off that hump of having nothing to write about. Working out or playing sports helps you get your mind off that and get's you focused on that specific sport.You will have many great ideas after you play for a couple of hours. Exercising is a good way to energize your mind. You will feel charged up like the energizer bunny.

3. Give your brain some actual "Brain food"


Food is really a great helper. Food helps you fuel your mind with helpful nutrients and many other things. If it wasn't for food, most writer's block wouldn't have went away. When you have food, it calms you down. It makes you think about how a paper can be great and also it makes you think about how delicious the food is.

4. Write out the first things that come to your mind on a piece of paper

Writing things out is really a good way to express yourself. It helps you think of ideas you really didn't know you were capable of coming up with. Writing ideas helps you narrow down what you really want to talk about. It helps you get out all the silly things in your head when you first do it. But I think writing out is so dope because that's where all your best papers come from. Writing papers is the best tool for getting out of writer's block.

10 Truths About Being In A Sorority

(For Girls Who Are Interested In Greek Life)

Sorority
Rebekah Lee

I remember my freshman year oh so well. I remember feeling terrified the night before orientation. The one thing that I dreaded the most was not the new people, the new environment, or even the academic pressure. I was dreading having to talk to sorority girls about Recruitment. I remember cutting off and avoiding any Rho Gamma/Panhellenic Officer that came my way during First Week. I looked at them like they had asked me to cut my arm off whenever they asked me if I wanted to rush. To be honest, I did not even know what rush was, but I knew that I did NOT want to be a part of it. To me, it was dumb. It was a waste of money. It was a waste of my time.

And guess what? I did not rush my freshman year. I spent the first half of my freshman year isolating myself from everyone on campus. I spent all of my time in the library, and then (since I was a commuter) went back home once my work was finished.

Tiana would no doubt be disappointed in the food our cafeteria has to offer.

And hopefully she would cook for everyone in her dorm.

She definitley would not take any 8:00 am classes because she would be up late baking and cleaning up the communal kitchen that are available in every dorm.
