6 Travel Essentials From Away's Post-Labor Day Sale That Are Perfect For Your Next Weekend Getaway

@away on Instagram

It's about six months into quarantining, courtesy of COVID-19, and I assume you, like me, cannot stop online shopping.

Away.com is having its first-ever GLOBAL sale. While we don't know the deals just yet, we know they're going to be huge because this sale is one-time only.

In case you don't know, Away is a company that sells travel essentials like suitcases, totes, duffle bags, travel makeup cases, pet carriers, and more.

The sale goes all day on Wednesday, September 9.

If there is one thing that I have learned in the past couple of years with all of my travels it is that you cannot cheap out on buying luggage! BRB while I pour one out to all the suitcases ruined from the not-so-gentle luggage people who throw your belongings on a plane like it's garbage. You NEED a strong and sturdy suitcase, bottom line!

If you are getting ready to pack up for a getaway now that more things around the country are opening again, you should definitely grab one of our favorites listed below for an incredible deal.

1. The Large — for the over-packer

6. The Latitude Tote — for the woman on-the-go

If you're like me, you like to get some work done on your laptop while you're waiting to board your flight or in the air. This tote is perfect for your personal item to slide your laptop or notebook easily in and out of in a busy airport or on the plane!

7 Reasons I Love Christmas

There is nothing quite like Christmas.

It is that time of year again. Christmastime. It is one of my favorite seasons for a myriad of reasons. Here are just a few reasons why I love Christmas. This list is in no order of importance.

1. The Christmas decorations

I am that person who will decorate directly after Thanksgiving is over. This year, my roommates and I put the tree up in our apartment before we even left for Thanksgiving break. It is a great stress reliever for me to just sit in my living room and work on the huge amount of work I have before the semester is over.

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?

10 Reasons Why Sisters Are The Best

Who could be a better friend than your own sister?

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.

How To Adult

You're gonna make it after all.

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.

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!)

It is no secret that many American traditions have changed over time. As we grow older we change in so many ways that it only makes sense that we also change the way we celebrate special occasions. Of course when it comes to the holidays there are some family traditions that many of us still excitedly look forward to, whether it is eating your favorite dish or seeing favorite cousin. However, we all know that the holidays have overall changed a little from what they used to be.
