4 Reasons You Should Be Taking Summer Classes
Tori Crowley

Some people may say that summer classes are stupid and annoying. You know what? They are right. However, summer classes are great at the same time.

1. Summer classes are so helpful.

College is expensive so if you can get all of your classes done early, why wouldn’t you want that? Summer classes are great at helping you get ahead in school…and ahead in life.

2. Get done early.

If you finish college early, then you can get out into the real world. Having a real job will allow you to start paying off those pesky student loans. But, hopefully you can finish early enough that they won’t be too bad.

3. Shorter.

Actually, summer classes are not that bad at all. You get a full 15 week class done in just 5-8 weeks. Who wouldn’t love that? If you just take one summer class, you still have a lot of time to spend at the beach.

4. Relaxing.

If you take online classes though, you can do the work for it on the beach or laying by the pool! You literally can do your assignments anywhere and enjoy yourself. Getting a tan and getting work done, whats better than that?

By taking summer classes, you are able to have fun and get your work done too. Especially online classes. People may think that with summer classes you do not get to enjoy your summer…not true. Plus, summer classes are usually smaller so you get to have more one-on-one attention with your professor. Have a great summer and a great college transcript by taking summer classes!

Toilet Troubles

"So, usually I would never go on a Tinder date but when you are out with girlfriends and a hot Bosnian guy says he wants to hang with you and his friends, you oblige. We head to their apartment and when I realized I may pee my pants if I don't find a bathroom soon. I ask for the bathroom and a friend of my tinder date shows me to it and said in all seriousness that I was not allowed to flush the toilet under ANY circumstances. Having a few drinks--or five--I relieved myself to, nevertheless, flush the toilet. Within seconds, his bathroom was flooded and towels were laid out everywhere to catch the toilet water. To say the least, we were not invited back"
