So you got the short end of the stick and you have to take a summer class, huh? Bummer. Well even though half your summer is down the toilet, I'll show you some tips on summer studying that'll make that 6-week class a breeze.

1. Study in a quiet area:

Study somewhere away from the hustle and bustle of all the college students that are free from the clutches of higher education. Be sure to keep yourself away from the sounds of glee and joy as they will tempt you into distraction.

2. Wipe the sweat off your paper:

Don't forget, it is summertime and you're probably going to sweat like a pig for the next 3 months. You better wipe those sweat drops off your handwritten notes to prevent pencil smears. I mean, you COULD go swimming, but you do have a summer class to worry about.

3. Need a breather?:

Stare longingly out the window at all the people having fun while you sit inside writing mounds of flashcards. That could be you, but you're learning.

That's right, you're stuck inside because you had to take that STUPID SUMMER CLASS. Kinda makes you wonder if it was even worth it in the first place. Are you enjoying the stack of lab reports, papers, and take home quizzes?

4. Give up!

Who needs that degree anyway? Doesn't swimming, beach hopping, and ice cream sound so much more fun? You're only young once, so why not make the most of your summer?

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
