In This Article:

Anyone that has used a tanning bed before knows how relaxing it is, but when you are under those lights there seems to be just a few things we all do.

1. Sleep!

Is there anything more relaxing than a nap with the fan blowing on you and the lights making you feel toasted? Heck no, best nap ever. Has it ever been mentioned that it helps relieves headaches, sinus issues, and period cramps!?

2. Stalk people on social media

Sometimes you're just too hyped to sleep, so you spend the time stalking your Facebook friends (and those who aren't).

3. Jam to music

It's easy to feel like a rock star under the lights, so it makes for a better place than the shower! No worries about falling down here.

4. Check out yourself under the lights

Those UV lights make your nail polish and whatever your wearing look pretty cool sometimes.

5. Take selfies

The choices are endless of the kinds of selfies you can take, and the lighting is pretty great.

6. Enjoy the fact that in about 20 minutes you're just a bit browner

It doesn't matter if you use a tanning bed for medical purposes or just to be tan, there's something satisfying about laying in the bed knowing you're gonna have a glow as soon as you get out.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
