Everything I Love About A Cozy Sunday

A relaxing itinerary for how to start your week off right.

Today, I woke up at 10:30 AM. Not in a flustered frenzy because I accidentally slept through a class. Not in an exhausted, achey way that occurs most Saturdays. Today, I woke up peacefully and slowly, because it is Sunday.

Today, I drank a big cup of coffee in bed. I stayed in my pajamas, wandered out into the kitchen, and made an extra strong, extra honey-filled cup of coffee.

Today, I mozied on over to the gym. When I felt like it, I put on my favorite leggings and walked down to the gym. I put in a good run, then spent twenty minutes relaxing in the sauna.

Today, I put on a face mask for thirty minutes. I got home from the gym, rinsed off my face, then put on a cleansing face mask. I was still drenched in sweat, grabbed an ice cold seltzer from the fridge, and sat on my floor waiting for the mask to be done.

Today, I took a long, hot shower. I took the longest shower ever with yummy smelling soap and even shaved my legs. I listened to the Mamma Mia 2 soundtrack the whole time.

Today, I went to church with friends at 5 PM. I picked up some friends and went downtown for a cozy evening service. We worshipped, prayed, and spent time in the Word to prepare for the upcoming week.

Today, I made lots of food for the upcoming week. I got home and meal prepped for the upcoming week. I baked some chunks of chicken breast, chopped up veggies to snack on, and made lots and lots of hummus.

Today, I went to sleep at 10 PM. I finished up in the kitchen, washed my face, put on my favorite PJs, and went to sleep.

Because it is a Sunday.

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?

sisters

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.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
