Services To Take Advantage Of On Campus

You're already paying for them.

Carson Armstrong

With finals coming up, we are all in a frenzy trying to prepare for the last few weeks of class. With the increase in stress, sicknesses setting in, and just al around frustration, it would be easy to let the services available on campus slip your mind. However, with everything that is happening on campus right now (and the fact that everything seems to be moving in fast motion), these services available on campus can be very helpful right now. Get your money's worth.

Counseling Center

It's getting colder outside and Daylight Savings Time means its getting dark before we're even out of class. Seasonal Affective Disorder is on the rise, as well as stress because of finals. Most schools have one and it can be very useful, especially towards the end of the semester.

Gym

It might just be me but I always complain about wanting to get in shape. I always forget that my campus offers so many opportunities for me to work out. There are recreational gyms, indoor tracks, pools, fitness classes, and a world full of fitness opportunities I haven't taken advantage of. It is also helpful to help destress as well.

Transportation

While the bus that campuses provide can sometimes be a little.... rough, they do help you get places quickly and you're paying to be transported. Why pay for parking when you're already paying for a bus?

Parking

On the other hand, if you're in a pinch and are absolutely going to be late to class if the bus doesn't show up in front of you at that very moment, the parking decks and parking passes can come in handy.

Student Health Services

With the change of the seasons and the lack of sleep, there are bound to be an abundance of illnesses going around. Take advantage of the health services if you can.

Tutorial Center

If you're anything like me, you're going to be stressed about at least one course when it comes to finals. This is an extremely helpful service to help ease your mind and help you master that course.

Athletics

If you want to destress or go hang out with friends, go support your school's athletics! It is a great way to be involved on campus.

Mistakes are something we all make, no matter how old we get. Most of the time, the mistakes we made are little and sometimes due to something out of our control. Yet, there are mistakes that are bigger than others. Personally, I have mistakes that I wish I could go back and undo. Here they are:

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

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?

sisters

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.
