6 Steps To Making The Perfect Cup Of Coffee
rawpixel.com

I have loved coffee for years now. It was never a need for caffeine or energy, but the taste and smell of coffee were truly one of the best things I've ever discovered. It wasn't until college that I realized that making my own coffee was better than buying it anywhere. As much as I like to talk about myself, I'm going to go right ahead into the 6 steps anyone can do to make the perfect cup of coffee.

1. Make the coffee

It doesn't matter when you use, whether it's going to be a French press or a Keurig, pick your favorite coffee flavor and brand and make it into a normal coffee mug. Put the mug in the fridge to cool the coffee.

2. Fill a glass with ice

The best coffee is an iced coffee, so make sure you get a glass out of the cabinet or cupboard and put it out. I prefer using a tall glass. I love to use a mason jar, like the one in the gif. Fill it to the brim with ice, and then grab your favorite type of almond milk.

3. Pour the almond milk

Take your favorite almond milk and fill about 1/3 of the glass with almond milk. Make sure that there's not too much in the glass, or else there would too big of a disproportion.

4. Pour the coffee

Here comes the best part. Take the coffee out of the refrigerator and pour it into the mason jar. Now you can watch the coffee mix with the almond milk. It's truly one of the greatest sights in life.

5. Get a reusable straw and stir the drink

Stir it to make sure that the coffee and almond milk mix properly and totally. I think reusable straws are the best decision because plastic straws create a significant amount of unnecessary waste.

6. Enjoy!

You can now drink the best coffee you've ever made! Making your own drinks is truly better than buying coffee from anywhere! Enjoy!

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

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.
