1. Make your bed!

I think many people will agree with me in saying that making your bed in the morning will have positive impacts on you throughout the day. If you make your bed in the morning, you start off your day positively by accomplishing something! I know it seems tedious to do every day, but if you accomplish a simple task right when you wake up it will help you to feel more productive and hopefully more energetic throughout the day.

2. Time to wash your face

Washing your face in the morning is not only good for your skin but it will also wake you up! Don't forget to wet your face with warm water first to open up your pores. Rinsing with cold water after cleansing your face is good for closing those pores back up but it also will give you a little boost of energy to get on with your day!!

3. Breakfast Breakfast Breakfast

I know a lot of people that skip breakfast in the morning, which is fine if you're in a hurry but honestly breakfast is the most important meal of the day y'all! If you have a full day it's a great idea to eat a protein rich breakfast that will be able to sustain you till you have time for lunch. As a college student I know we're all busy and breakfast just sounds like a hassle but when you have class all morning and won't have time to eat till 2, breakfast is truly a necessity to get your day going.

4. Shower

A shower in the morning doesn't have to happen everyday because obviously not all of us wake up in time to hop in the shower, but it can be really helpful in waking you up in the morning!

5. Coffee Coffee!

I know not everyone drinks coffee but a classic cup of joe in the morning will really help to give you that extra caffeine boost on those days you feel as if you're going to fall asleep in your 8 am.

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.

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?
