As students, whether we are in high school or college, we have all been at the point where we have been on the brink of mental and physical exhaustion. Sometimes, our schoolwork can interfere with are social and family life as well as our jobs and other commitments, hindering those relationships since education is a big part in advancing up the social and American ladder. But, again, as students we know how to manage our time and juggle the thing we call life as best as we can. Though there are times when are gauge is on empty, and so we all needs ways in order to distress and get back into the groove after a well needed break. So, I am going to a few ways that we can do this.

1. Relaxation.

Now, the first method is pretty obvious and is something that is easy to do. Relax. Grab a good book, watch one of your favorite shows, or anything that helps you let the stress you are feeling go away.

2. Hang out with some friends.

We have all had that moment where we decided over schoolwork than going out and having a good time with friends. Its our education that comes first before social interaction is something that we tell ourselves sometimes. But, when you do get all the work that you do then to get done, then go out with those friends or family and just enjoy being with people that care about you and having fun to forget about the overwhelming pressure of grades and assignments.

3. Don't Procrastinate.

Even though we don't like to admit it, we all procrastinate at times. Especially on our schoolwork. However, if we create a schedule of what we have to get done, and do them on specific days or times then we will be able to have more free time for oneself.

4. Sleep.

Sleep, for college students, is a luxury that we all treasure. To be able to go to bed and rest, knowing that we have everything done is a pleasant feeling. We will be able to feel more rejuvenated and alert for the next day ahead.

These are only a few ways in which someone can fight against the exhaustion we all feel, but we can all figure out how to balance the very aspect of our lives and be able to efficiently have a successful life.

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.

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.
