A lot of people have spent their summer working hard, playing hard or doing both and with fall right around the corner, here are seven things you should definitely do this summer if you haven’t had the chance to do them yet.

1. Get your tan going.

It’s never too late to get your tan on! Many people don’t enjoy tanning for several reasons but another easy way to achieve a tan is fake tanning. From drugstore to high-end products there are a lot of safe and easy ways to give your skin a glorious tan.

2. Switch up your hair.

If the sun hasn’t yet kissed your hair, cheat and go lighter with the help of some bleach. If you’re feeling adventurous, dye your hair with streaks of color or try out some temporary color methods if you don’t want a permanent change. Summer is a great time to experiment with shorter hair whether it is only a few inches, an undercut or a pixie cut, it will be a huge relief from the heat. Split ends are common during the summer due to sun damage so if a trim is needed, go for one!

3. Wear summer colors.

You’re probably thinking, “I can’t show up to work in a hot pink shirt,” well you can and the only reason for that is that it is summer. Wear any clothing item or accessory in a summer color that will make your outfit pop and cheer up your mood, your options are endless. Plus, you’ll have a little extra to look forward to in the mornings.

4. Go summer-sale shopping.

As the season is close to an end, many stores have already started putting out sales. Many summer clothes, body products, make up, accessories and all summer related items in general can usually be used all year round or saved for next summer so please don’t miss out from some amazing deals!

5. Don’t miss out on summer dishes.

Some fruits are only available by seasons, which is why summer brings us tropical drinks, dishes, candy and dessert options. Remember you can always make them yourself by searching DIYs, which are always fun to do with some friends and family!

6. Oil up.

Being exposed to the sun is wonderful but too much sun can be damaging. Use oil on your hair to repair, bring back some moisture and shine as well as to help split ends improve. Use on your skin as a moisturizer and over your cuticles for healthier nails. Mix it with some brown sugar and use the mixture to exfoliate but be careful to not over do it. Some of the oils I enjoy using for the previous are coconut oil and argan oil but there are many more options you can use.

7. Make your summer unforgettable.

There is still time to try something new or do something unexpected. It could be going on a road trip, throwing a party, visiting a friend who lives far from you between many other things that can cause an impact in this summer so that you will never forget it. Take pictures along the way to help you keep the memories! If you’re not able to try something different then try your hardest to make the best out of every day that’s left of summer.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.

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!
