1. How to keep bees:

Bees are dying out so quickly that there is a petition to get them on the United States' endangered species list. I think it would be cool to learn how to keep them safe and off the endangered species list. Hopefully my attempts don't turn out like the guy above.

2. How to paint with watercolors:

Art is a beautiful thing. I can't think of a better way to show my appreciation to art and artists alike than to learn to paint. One day when I am rich I will pay all you wonderful artists, but for now I will learn to paint.

3. How to make candles:

Who doesn't love candles? I am a candle fanatic. I think it would be totally legit to be able to make my own candles with their own scents, colors, size, and fancy styles. Making candles would be a really cool skill!

4. How to code:

Coding could be a valuable skill in today's technological world and it would be very helpful just knowing the basics of how things like the internet work. Also, I'd like to be referred to as Hackerman when I learn to code, thanks.

5. How to bind books:

As a lover of books, I have often sat and wondered how books were bound before they were being mass produced. I have also wondered how I would ever get my beloved books fixed because in all honesty, I am not the nicest to them. Well, bookbinding was my answer and after some research I decided that I wanted to learn to bind books! It would be so cool to fix up old books for a library or museum!

6. How to become a TeaMaster:

Now, before you go shaking your head at me, tea mastery is a real thing. They have schools you can go to that teach you how to make tea from the actual tea leaves, how to mix them to make your own flavors, or teas to help with certain ailments!! I think that'd be a pretty cool gig.


These are just a few things I think would be cool to know how to do. I hope you find them neat too!!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
