Who knew scribbling in little boxes could make you feel so accomplished?

Using A Habit Tracker For 21 Days Changed My Life
Casey Whoolery-Pratt

So recently I invested in a bullet journal, and it was the best decision of my life. Not only was it a place for my crazy thoughts and endless lists, but it was a place for bettering myself and my time management. With that being said, I decided to dedicate a page for a 21-day habit tracker. Let me tell you, this tool made me feel on top of the world. This might seem a little crazy, but it is so true.

I wrote down everything that I wanted to make more of a daily routine. For example, washing my face in the morning AND night, drinking 90 oz of water each day, waking up early, and even doing a quick tidy every morning and night before bed. Because of this small little tracker that takes up one page of my book, it leaves me to have better time management in my big book of life in return.

I now look forward to scribbling in with my designated pen that I accomplished so much, even if its the littlest things because I know it is making me a better person every day because of it. It is the weirdest, most accomplishing feeling and I can't get enough of it. Not only do I find myself being more productive, but I find myself making more time for me and my self-care. It's the best feeling in the world. You should try it sometime.

11 Things Summer Nannies Can Relate To

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

If it hurts now, it'll hurt again. Not because you're gullible or naive, only because you fall fast, hard, and you do it every time.

We fall each and every time with the complete and utter confidence that someone will be there to catch us. Now that person we SWORE we were never going to fall for has our hearts, and every time we see them our palms start sweating. The butterflies in our stomach start to soar and our hearts are entirely too close to bursting out of our chests.

Growing up I have always wanted to own a horse. My grandparents own a well known equestrian facility in Georgia, so I have been riding since I was born. A bond between a person and their horse is a bond so strong that it cannot be broken. Everywhere I went I wanted to be around horses, even forcing my family to go on trail rides during vacations.

College is super hard. Between working, studying, and having a social life, it feels like a struggle to just keep afloat.

I understand. When you feel like your drowning and there's no way to stay afloat I understand that it feels like everyone else is doing just fine. I understand all the frustration, long nights in the library, and that feeling that you want to just throw in the towel. I understand that sometimes it's too hard to get out of bed because your brain is already filled with too much information to remember. I understand because I am also feeling pretty burnt out.

Some of the best advice I've ever received was from my social studies teacher in sophomore year of high school. He stated, "If you don't know it at midnight, you're not going to know it for the 8 a.m. exam, so get some sleep."

It's such a simple piece of advice, but it holds so much accuracy and it's something that the majority of college students need to hear and listen to. "All-nighters" are a commonality on college campuses in order to cram in studying for an exam that is typically the next day.
