7 Things You Can Do With A Jeep

So Jeeps are known for their off-road capabilities and just being awesome. It's popularity is growing, with seeing those seven slots almost everywhere you turn on the roads. So with this growing popularity, what all can you do with a Jeep? Well...

1. Go off-roading.

See a trail while driving around? Go explore it! You've got yourself a capable vehicle, even stock, so put it to the test!

2. Make it your own.

Going off of the last point, the options for personalizing your Jeep are endless. There are endless aftermarket parts, so there will seriously never be a single Jeep like yours.

3. Go overlanding.

Like off-roading, overlanding is where you go down these trails or old logging roads, whatever you find, and instead of just driving around for the day and heading home you camp out. There's plenty of space in the Jeeps and on the roof rack to store everything you could possibly need for a night under the stars. Plus, camping out means you can go to further away places and explore more than you would if you don't decide to overland.

4. Rescue stranded motorists, especially other Jeepers.

Winters in northeast America are pretty rough, but one of the most dependable brands is Jeep as far as trudging through snow goes. With four wheel drive, and a good set of tires, you can pull out almost any vehicle that has found itself stuck in the snow. Plus, you can also rescue your fellow Jeepers who have gotten themselves stuck in a little too much mud or have gotten themselves wedged on rocks.

5. Make memories.

With being able to go off-roading and overlanding and making your Jeep your own, the memories that can be made are endless. How many people can say they just decided to drive up the mountain or flex on a curb just because they can? I'll tell you how many: however many Jeep owners there are out there.

6. Break it.

So, that off-roading and such doesn't always go well, hence your reliance on other Jeepers to help get you out. Oftentimes, you do end up breaking your Jeep after wheeling it, especially if you decide to crawl on some rocks. But hey, you can break it and fix it! Like I said before, there are millions of aftermarket parts, so you can easily find whatever it is you need to get your Jeep back up and running.

7. Win wars.

Yup. You can win wars in a Jeep. Jeep was created back in 1945, but before that Willys were created in 1941. Willys, as many Jeepers know, is the original Jeep. Willys were created specifically for the military and when Jeep was created the United States Army continued to use Jeeps and Willys. World War II really brought Jeep to the foreground and was the primary four-wheel-drive vehicle used during the war and even during the postwar period.

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?

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.
