Tips for Staying Productive
The Odyssey

With summer coming to an end and the fall approaching, so many things are starting. Back to school, end of summer vacations, and other things like that. One thing you do when going into the fall is get back on a schedule. With that, I have decided to give some tips on productivity to help with that. Keep reading for the tips below

1. The first tip is in the morning, do some form of exercise. Whether you do a full-on workout at the gym or do yoga right by your bed, doing some form of exercise makes your blood start moving and gets your body energized to start the day!

2. The next thing is write everything down. This means all your responsibilities whether that be work, homework, activities, parties. Whatever it may be, put it in a notebook or planner or something that way it is visual and you can come back to it for future reference.

3. The next tip is to tackle one thing at a time. Part of being productive is learning how to manage your time, which is very important. Make sure you are doing one thing at a time, so it is being done being to the best of your ability. If you try to do to many things at once, you are bound to not do your best on one of them.

4. The last tip is to drink ALOT of water. Water keeps you hydrated and hydration keeps your body feeling its best. Being dehydrated can cause your body to be weak and that will not help with being productive. Drink lot of water and your body will be set.


These are only four tips, but they in my opinion, are the most important. You don't want to start of this new season and time of year with being stressed or not doing everything you need to do. Try one, two, or all of these things out and I promise you will see how things start to flow more smoothly and your productive side will be shining!

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows.
