8 Ways to Enjoy Your Free Time

In college, free time is very rare. Whenever I get the chance to have some time to myself or just time to spend not doing school, sports, or work, I try and make the most of it!

1. Journaling

I recently have started becoming very into journaling. Whether it is just to let my emotions out or to tell a story. I have learned that writing out how and what I feel is the best way to let my mind free.

2. Daily Devotional

My church back home has started a new year long daily devotional that goes through the whole Bible. Yes, I mean the whole thing. I started off strong but getting back into the swing of school has faltered me a little bit. Having a plan though surely has been a motivator in this process.

3. Pinterest

Ahhh Pinterest. Home of DIY projects, coffee shop photos and a wardrobe that one can only dream of. I treat my Pinterest like my child. Tending to it everyday and making sure each board is neat, tidy and always stocked. #isthatweird?

4. C O F F E E

Coffee dates, Keurig coffee, drive thru coffee or the cute lattes with the foam shapes; it is ALL Greek to me. I cherish any cup I have and make sure to spend whatever I do in my spare time, with a cup in my hand.

5. Running Errands

In a small college town, the list of things to do is slimming. So sometimes a simple trip to Walmart or TJ Maxx with my pals is pleasure enough.

6. Siesta

I never thought I could nap until I came to college. Now, I have to force myself to STAY awake.

7. Goodwill

And boy is it good.

8. Netflix

The beloved place where 90% of college kids spend their time. Binge watching their favorite tv shows or watching 1 1/2 star independent films that wind up having German subtitles and get you sucked into a Netflix world you thought you would never reach.

Toilet Troubles

"So, usually I would never go on a Tinder date but when you are out with girlfriends and a hot Bosnian guy says he wants to hang with you and his friends, you oblige. We head to their apartment and when I realized I may pee my pants if I don't find a bathroom soon. I ask for the bathroom and a friend of my tinder date shows me to it and said in all seriousness that I was not allowed to flush the toilet under ANY circumstances. Having a few drinks--or five--I relieved myself to, nevertheless, flush the toilet. Within seconds, his bathroom was flooded and towels were laid out everywhere to catch the toilet water. To say the least, we were not invited back"
