7 Trends College Girls Should Leave In Fall Semester If They Don't Want To Be THAT Girl

We all know THAT girl: the one who's a wreck all the time, constantly stressed and running around like a crazy person. The following seven trends are behaviors you should stop if you don't want to be THAT girl.

Drunk texting your ex.

NO NO NO NO NO! DON'T DO IT!!! Ladies, let's leave this in 2018 and make this the year we STOP drunk texting our exes!

Procrastinating and then pulling an all-nighter to finish homework.

Listen, I've been guilty of this, but don't get in the cycle of procrastinating and then pulling an all-nighter, then being tired the next day and not doing work, causing another all-nighter... work ahead, force yourself to do work every day, and don't fall behind. AND SLEEP!

Spending too much time on your phone.

We all know that person who's constantly on their phone during class, while hanging out with friends, etc. Try putting your phone down and actually enjoying life a little. Instagram will still be there, I promise.

Showing up to class 35 minutes late.

Either be on time, or don't show up. If you're any more than five minutes late, it looks bad, and it's distracting. Plus, you're missing important information you PAID to learn, so get your money's worth and show up to class!

Juuling.

EVERYONE knows how bad Juuling is for you... nicotine addiction is real, and it's happening to college students everywhere. Before you know it you're taking your Juul to class and writing a paper while Juuling... it's time to stop!

Worrying about things that haven't happened.

You can't control everything, as much as you might try. Worry about what you CAN control, and leave what you can't control out of the equation.

Comparing yourself to others or judging yourself by how many likes you get.

Everyone is guilty of this. Do people not like me? Why didn't I get as many likes as this other person? Am I not as popular as they are? Stop these thoughts! Your self-worth isn't determined by your social media presence.

Hopefully, these are seven habits you can implement to have a happy, healthy and successful 2019!

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?
