Rhode Island weather has a mind of its own. With these tips, you'll never find yourself in a bind you aren't prepared for!

LAYER, LAYER, LAYER!

This is CRUCIAL to surviving the crazy seasons. Sometimes you need to bundle up in the morning but you could be sweating by the end of the day. Therefore, make sure to have multiple layers on so you can take off or put on one when needed.

Always have a rain jacket or umbrella on hand

It always rains in Rhode Island, so you have to have rain gear all the time. One day I went to class without anything because it was supposed to be clear skies and I walked out to it down pouring. All in all, I will never not bring rain gear again.

Keep multi-season clothing with you, especially if you're away at college

The weather can honestly go from summer to fall back to summer then winter real quick, therefore you shouldn't take all your summer clothes home with you when going home. You may want some tank tops in order to layer (as mentioned in 1#) or even just wear with jeans on a slightly warmer day.

Accessorize to keep warm 

Scarves and hats are a must if you live in Rhode Island. Plus it makes outfits extra cute and adds a little oomph. And you can stay on trend with upcoming new designs and patterns for a lower cost then a shirt might be.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

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?

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.
