The 6 Worst Studying Tips

It is that time of year again! Classes are coming to an end and all the work you have been putting off is coming in real hot. When you first get your syllabus and realize that all the big things are not do until the last week of classes you figure you'll have all the time in the world to get to it later but its later now and do you have time? Of course not.


1.) Go out every night of the week

Honestly its been a hard semester and you deserve some time off! So skip out on club library this last week and just go out and have a ball.

2.) Just eat all the junk food

We've heard all our lives that fruit and vegetables help our brains and scientifically help us do better but lets put it to the test. All the food in the snack drawer just pull out and eat that for dinner maybe you'll see if you do better or worse on your exams.

3. Hide from your notes

Opening your notebooks and going back over all your notes does not seem like fun, so instead let's just play a little game of hide and seek and hide your books and don't go back to look for them.

4. FaceTime with your friends from home.

You're going to see all your long lost best friends from home in one week but why wait? Spend all day and night FaceTiming with them instead of getting any work done because staring at each other and talking about nothing seems better than actually studying for those tests called finals.

5. Stay up all night.

Nap all day and stay up all night? Let's do it. Netflix is coming out with some good new movies and shows so why not choose that over sleep then nap when you should be in class.

6.) Go to the library and talk.

Everyones in the library trying to get their last minute work done and you want to feel like your getting work done too, so go hang out in the library. Rather than studying though sit there and talk to your friends and distract everyone else while you're at it.

By the way, don't do any of these things during finals week, but you could just do the exact opposite and good luck on finals!

For some of us, coming to college was the first time we ever had to share a room. It was a big change, but a fun one. As you meet more and more people over the course of your college career, it seems to be a pattern that you will at some point have that one friend that doesn't live with you, but acts like they do. We call those people, "Honorary Roommates" and here are 11 signs you have one in your life.

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"
