Health? Don't know her but I've been trying to.

We're all out here trying to live a better life and sometimes that means making some changes in our lifestyles. Although we can't all spend 24/7 in the gym and sustain a vegan diet, we can take small steps to be healthier.

Here are 5 easy to incorporate tips that can help you start that journey.

1. Stretch in the morning

Odds are you probably spend most of the day sitting down, whether it be in lecture, in your car, or on your couch.

Sometimes you have to give your body a little more mobility. A simple 5 minute stretch in the morning right as you get out of bed might make you feel a little more ready to take on the day.

2. Drink a lot of water

I always forget to drink water but it is so important!

It helps your metabolism and your skin and your overall health. So set a goal for yourself to drink the recommended 8 - eight ounce - glasses. Getting a cute reusable cup might help motivate you.

3. Go on a walk after dinner

Ok I don't know about you but sometimes I eat a little bit too much. This can sometimes lead to me feeling tired and drowsy after, aka a food coma.

But I got the solution—go on a walk. It'll help you feel less tired and your food to be digested quicker.

4. Make yourself a green smoothie everyday

Seriously, theres so many healthy smoothie recipes out there and they'll help you get your daily fruit and veggie intake so quickly. It literally takes 5 minutes and you can make it at any time during the day.

5. Get more sleep

Even when life gets busy you shouldn't sacrifice your sleeping time. Set a realistic goal of getting at least an extra hour of sleep and notice the difference you see in your overall health.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2023, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.

It's not the studying, lack of sleep, last minute cram sessions or crappy food intake that is the worst... but the fact that you cannot focus because, well, CHRISTMAS. How do professors expect you to focus when Christmas is soooo soon. For all my fellow Christmas lovers out there, I feel your pain.

Daily Fun Lists

One of the most dreaded places on campus is the library. Nothing awesome ever happens here. Usually, the only reason you're here is because you've procrastinated so long that the library is the only place you'll actually get stuff done. It gives you this feeling of sadness and impending doom. You have no idea how this is going to go or how long you'll be here, but you do know it is about to be the most excruciating experiences yet. But it has to get done, so you drag yourself to the lovely library.
