10 Good Habits To Have In College
PEXELS

I have only been in college for a little while but I know having good habits are important. When in college, you want to minimize the number of bad habits you learn and replace them with something that helps you be successful. Here are 10 habits you should try in college:

1. Have A Bed Time.

Sleep is an important part of college. You may have classes early in the morning and you would not want to miss the class that is costing you a lot of money.

2. Eat Meals At The Same Time Each Day.

If it is possible, try to eat at the same time each day. That way, you can work around your meal time and not get hungry while doing your homework.

3. Take Notes By Hand.

I understand that it is easier to take notes on a computer, but writing the notes makes them easier to remember. You can always type them later after you write them.

4. Get Assignments Done Early.

The sooner you get assignments are done, the more free time you have. With that tie you can write, read, hang out with friends, and whatever else you want to do.

5. Wake Up A Little Earlier.

When you wake up a few minutes before it is time for you to get ready, it gives you time to think about your day. You get start your day off with positives thoughts instead of just getting up to get ready.

6. Make Your Bed When You Get Up.

Coming back from classes with a nice and neat bed can be so satisfying. All you have to do is lay down and close your eyes.

7. Keep Your Desk Clean.

Having a clean desk makes it more appealing to start working. When you have a neat space you can do your homework without any distractions.

8. Go Outside.

A little bit of nature can make any day go better and chances are your campus is probably beautiful.

9. Drink Water.

Staying hydrated throughout the day makes you feel better.

10. Make Time For Your Friends.

I know college make you busy but make time for the people who matter.


Hopefully, these 10 habits will make college life easier for you.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
