After a month and a half of relaxation and fun, school is back in session. Everyone is dreading going back to waking up early and having to adjust to a strenuous schedule after a month and a half of relaxing and not worrying about responsibilities.
Going from "vacation mode" to back to "school mode" can be difficult for many people to adjust to. Especially if we didn't even have two months worth of a break, but there are many ways kick the back-to-school blues' butt and get back into the swing of things, so you can have an awesome semester.
1. Buy your textbooks
2. Rekindle with friends
3. Pick out your first-day-of-the-semester outfit
Like with the first day of the fall semester, everyone wants to look their best for the first day of the spring semester. Plus, it's a great time to try on that cute outfit your mom got you for Christmas.
4. Make a killer breakfast
A big, healthy breakfast will guarantee better grades and better focus in your classes.
5. Set new goals
While you probably already set goals for the new year, you still had two weeks of avoiding responsibilities and the such. A new semester can often be the best time to set goals and start working on them.
6. Start a reading list
Reading as much as you can when you have the free time, instead of spending endless hours on Facebook, is a great way to get the creative juices flowing and can help get your brain working throughout the semester.
7. Make a checklist
Planned to do something during winter break but never got around to it? No worries! Just make a checklist of all the things you want to do while there's still a little bit more winter break to squeeze out.
8. Plan something fun
While there's still a little bit of winter break left, you should plan something fun in order to beat the back-to-school depression that everyone's dreading.
