Everyone has colored something at least once in their lives. If you haven't, you are missing out on one of the most stress relieving activity ever!

1. It makes for a fun date night!

Coloring is a super fun way to be able to spend time with the ones you love doing something you love.

2. It won't break the bank.

Let's be honest, going out can break the bank, but coloring won't do that. Simply hit up the dollar store, grab some coloring books and crayons and get to coloring.

3. It is very relaxing.

I recently started coloring again and it's amazing. I make myself a warm cup of tea and sit down, and start bringing the pages to life.

4. It's so simple and efficient.

Usually, when I have breaks in between classes, I am either on my phone or waiting for class to start. But coloring is as simple as taking out your phone.

5. It will bring you joy.

Whether you get an adult coloring book or a kids one, after you are done coloring the picture you always feel so proud of your accomplished work

6. Just because you can!

If you find yourself with more free time than you originally planned and you don't want to watch your show, pick up a coloring book!

7. It's a nice peaceful activity after a hectic day.

Some of us have extremely hectic weeks, so hectic it feels as if though you will never get a second of peace but if you set aside some minutes each day and take a break, you will find that coloring is so peaceful and quiet.

8. Coloring books come by the dozen.

Coloring books come by the dozen, whether it be intricate figures or jumbo sized animals, there is a coloring book for everyone.

9. It's easy to take with you on the go! 

Mini coloring books fit in the palms of your hand. Simply put it in your pocket or purse, grab a small Ziploc bag with crayons and away you go.

10. It's fun for everyone!

Coloring is for everyone and for all ages!

If you have made it this far in the article without getting in your car and driving to get some books. Now is your chance!

Sorority

I remember my freshman year oh so well. I remember feeling terrified the night before orientation. The one thing that I dreaded the most was not the new people, the new environment, or even the academic pressure. I was dreading having to talk to sorority girls about Recruitment. I remember cutting off and avoiding any Rho Gamma/Panhellenic Officer that came my way during First Week. I looked at them like they had asked me to cut my arm off whenever they asked me if I wanted to rush. To be honest, I did not even know what rush was, but I knew that I did NOT want to be a part of it. To me, it was dumb. It was a waste of money. It was a waste of my time.

And guess what? I did not rush my freshman year. I spent the first half of my freshman year isolating myself from everyone on campus. I spent all of my time in the library, and then (since I was a commuter) went back home once my work was finished.

Tiana would no doubt be disappointed in the food our cafeteria has to offer.

And hopefully she would cook for everyone in her dorm.
