Just got back from spring break and now we're all realizing that this is the home stretch for the school year. Here are some tips to get you through to the end of the semester with as little of a struggle as possible.

Get assignments done on time, if not early.

Seems pretty understandable, right? Get your work done on time so that it can be graded and your GPA won't take a hit. However, as the semester begins to wind down, it may seem more and more difficult to achieve such a task. So I highly recommend planning your assignments ahead of time and getting them done as early as you can. This way, you won't forget about them or run out of precious time.

Make sleep a priority.

Once again, seems like a given. Also once again, we as college students tend to forget that our bodies can't run without rest. Trust me, nobody is going to deny that late nights with friends are great. Try sleeping throughout the week and then saving your long nights for the weekend. Which brings me to my next tip...

Make plans to have fun/ go out.

With the weather getting nice more and more fun options will be available for your enjoyment. Grand Prix weekend will be happening soon. Spring Fest is just around the corner. So many fun things for you and friends to do that will help you de-stress from daily life. Personally, I make plans for every weekend so I always have something to look forward to throughout the week. Some of those plans can even be a self-care day.

Workout and eat right.

Everyone is trying to get their "summer body", but you should be doing these things to keep yourself healthy and happy. Not just to look a certain way. Exercise and healthy eating will help with your physical, mental/emotional, and social health. You may even get some #gains while putting in work. :) Also, don't forget to drink plenty of water.

Go outside.

Some days are colder than others, but the weather isn't terrible and can be quite enjoyable. So go out there and enjoy it! The sunshine and sound of birds chirping can really boost your mood even if you're having a rough day.

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

8tracks radio

We all scroll through the radio stations in the car every once in a while, whether its because we lost signal to our favorite one or we are just bored with the same ol' songs every day. You know when you're going through and you hear a song where you're just like "I forgot this existed!" and before you know it, you're singing every word? Yeah, me too. Like, 95% of the time. If you're like me and LOVE some good throwback music, here's a list of songs from every genre that have gotten lost in time, but never truly forgotten.

beer on the beach

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods. Which is none other than beer; wonderful cold beer. With summer playing peek-a-boo around the corner while we finish up this semester, it's time to discuss the only important part of summer.
