I have been wanting to talk a certain kind of tea for a while that has lots of benefits, and that is GREEN TEA! Green tea has so many benefits that I feel is so helpful.

1. It helps you relax.

Giphy

First, green tea helps with of course relaxing the body. I know for me whenever I drink green tea, I feel more calm and collected. Green tea is something that is nice to have before bed, and also a good alternative for coffee.

2. Detoxing is a major key!

Giphy

Green tea is a natural detox. That means all the nasty, unhealthy foods you may have eaten over the weekend can all be gone with a cup of green tea.

Since green tea is a detox, that also means that it is also flushing away the bad things in your skin as well which can all help with gaining a natural glow.

3. Sis, it's time for dark circles to be gone. 

Giphy

Green tea also helps with reducing dark circles. All you have to do is dip the green tea in water, place the green tea bags in the fridge, then later place them over your eyes and let sit for 20 mins.

4. Morning time fine!

Giphy

Another thing that I've noticed is, green tea has caffeine in it, so you could repeat all the steps from the last point but instead apply the tea bags in the morning. This can help reduce the puffiness we have sometimes in the morning when we wake up.

5. You go smarty pants!

Giphy

I've read that drinking tea can also help with brain function! So drink a cup in the morning and get your day started right.

6. Because we're balling on a budget.

Giphy

An easy makeup and beauty hack is to use green tea as a toner. Toner is basically just something you put on your face that helps keep it clean, and can also help with oily skin.

All you have to do is put all natural green tea in a little spray bottle, and that's it. The green tea is going to help keep the skin clean but is also going to help with detoxifying your pores.

7. Turn your bathroom into a spa.

Giphy

Something you could try is putting a couple green tea bags in your bath and just letting them sit. This is going to help with giving your whole body a natural glow, detoxing the skin on your body, and will just make you feel relaxed.

8. Hydration should always be a part of your routine.

Giphy

Just like water, green tea can also help with hydration. I read on Pinterest that we should drink water after we eat breakfast because this can help prevent dehydration.

9. Let green tea give you inches.

Giphy

Green tea also promotes hair growth. All you have to do is take green tea and incorporate it into your wash routine.

10. Green tea can get you feeling better.

Giphy

Lastly, green tea can help with your overall health. It helps reduce side affects when sick, such as helping with inflamed throats, and it works even better when you add lemon!

You see green tea has so many added benefits, so try to add this into your daily routine and see the results you get!

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.

There are multiple group projects on the syllabus

You learn attendance is mandatory and will be taken every class

Professor starts chatting about their personal life and what inspired them to teach this class

Participation is mandatory and you have to play "icebreaker games"

Everybody is going out because its 'syllabus week' but you're laying in bed watching Grey's Anatomy

Looking outside anytime past 8 PM every night of this week

Nobody actually has any idea what's happening this entire week

Syllabus week is over and you realize you actually have to try now...or not

Now it's time to get back into the REAL swing of things. Second semester is really here and we all have to deal with it.

Whether you specialized in ringing people up or preparing the food, if you worked at Panera Bread it holds a special place in your heart. Here are some signs that you worked at Panera in high school.

1. You own so many pairs of khaki pants you don’t even know what to do with them

Definitely the worst part about working at Panera was the uniform and having someone cute come in. Please don’t look at me in my hat.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.
