Ever feel totally spaced out in class and feel as if the clock has ultimately stopped? Yup, we've all be there and when we become stuck in never-ending lectures, of course we need some fixes to speed up time. Why not give one of these silly fixes a shot?

1. Get your social-media-fix on

Yes, you are probably deathly bored in all 6 of your lecture-based college classes. Don't stress though, just take some time to scroll, "like", snap, and instagram your heart out for the next 50 minutes...

...just don't let your professor catch you or prepare for public humiliation.

2. Schedule some self-care pampering

*looks down as you jot down your notes: "Shit, my acrylics need to be filled ASAP". Well, looks like you should def schedule an online appointment with your nearest salon, spa, or go-to nail lady (damn, I love my girl Tammy @ProNails). Try to schedule it right after your class in order to reward yourself for all your hard work in everything that you do (especially with all the multi-tasking that you rock).

3. Swipe it out

They say you can find love anytime and anyplace, so why not in class? Set up some dates for the week or just throw some "hey cutie"'s out there; def a good form of entertainment for the most torturous days of class...(be discrete if you choose this option)

4. Online shopping spree

YAS, get those deals and buy everything and anything that you have been saving in your cart because the clock isn't ticking any faster and you still have 30 minutes left in Global Issues. You will have bigger problems if you don't have a cute and gucci AF outfit for Saturday night...

Shit....

$200 later....

Yes, we all make shopping mistakes. It's ok babes. At least you'll look hot for the weekend.

5. iMessage

You may be bored, but who doesn't love a nice text hello to add to their day? Make sure all sounds are on silent and all texts are PG - PG13 rated (for class purposes). Can't have "50 Shades Of Grey" shit flying all over your phone! Major issue.

6. Scribble some doodles

Artist or not, grabbing a fresh pen, preferably those slick gel pens, and creating whatever comes to your mind is actually a great way to decorate your notes (LOL). Even notes need some spicing up!

So whether you are having a day-dream-kind-o-day and you just aren't feeling class, resort to some of these fixes. Although, we all know we should be paying attention, come on, tell me you haven't tried to sneak a few texts in during class...ya, exactly.

Be safe. Party hard and kill it my loves.

Much love.

~ xoxo

It's a pain to learn but it's definitely worth it in the end.

When I was learning how to talk, I was taught both Portuguese and English at the same time. In elementary school, I started taking mandatory Spanish classes, which I did well in because of my knowledge of Portuguese. Then in high school, on top of taking Spanish, I also started taking French. Now, in college, already fluent in English and Portuguese, I'm in the process of becoming fluent in Spanish, and I have a standard high school level understanding of French.

I am without a doubt one of those people who refuses to start decorating for Christmas or listen to Christmas music until after Thanksgiving. Unfortunately, Thanksgiving has become an underrated holiday over the years. You barely see any Thanksgiving decorations in stores; it's like they skip right from Halloween to Christmas.

Some universities only get two or three days off for Thanksgiving break. Or, if your university is like mine, you get the whole week off go go home. A whole week off is a long time. I'm not complaining, because I'd rather have a whole week off than three days, but there is a lot of down time. Here are some ideas as to what you can do to get the most out of your Thanksgiving break.
