Hi all!

Just a few days ago, I was walking out of yoga class and noticed I had a new message. I opened the new message and responded. After the basic introduction, I was asked if I wanted to be a part of the new chapter of The Odyssey. In a heartbeat I responded with a definite yes. Over the past couple years, I have read many articles published by The Odyssey, all of which brought a smile to face, made me realize I'm not the only one that relates to every episode of Gossip Girl or struggled her first year of college. You also learn you're not the only one that has an extreme Netflix addiction and someone better find a place for us addicts and fast.

Summer is just getting heated up and we are finally getting warmed up to being back in our childhood home for the next three months. I know next semester is the last thing on everybody's mind but I have some pretty exciting news for the students here at the University of Findlay.

Over the next few months, a new chapter of The Odyssey will be hitting the screens of everyone's laptops, cellphones and tablets at the University of Findlay. For those of you that are new to the world of The Odyssey, I'll fill you in on what we are all about. Our goal is to allow the voices of college students to be heard through out college campuses. The articles that you will have the opportunity to read will vary from newest news on the upcoming election, to the latest episode of Grey's Anatomy.

You will see articles, stories, lists, letters, interviews and maybe even some random surprises. Our goal here at the University of Findlay's chapter of The Odyssey is to keep you updated on the latest drama of the big bad world or keep you entertained by the newest drama in our own little bubbles. We are all super excited to be a part of your every day college experiences.

So next semester, when your cramming for that Organic Chemistry exam and decide you need a little break (or long break) make sure you pull up the latest at The Odyssey. You never know, we may become your new source of procrastination or maybe even your new venting buddy when that player you dated, breaks your heart.

Either way, we will be your new companion sitting right next to you on the crazy rollercoaster we all know as college.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

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?

sisters

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. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. 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.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
