Everyone seems to dread Sundays! But why? I for one love them! I get it, a long week of classes and early mornings are upon us, but we should still make the best of the last day of the weekend. Sundays are for relaxing, so before you stress about the the week ahead, take some time to unwind.
Hit snooze, and take a couple more hours to get some quality shut eye. Friday night and Saturday night are for going out and having fun but Sunday is for sleeping it off and preparing for a week of early mornings. College students are not getting enough sleep these days. I for one I wake up at 8 every morning and go to sleep at 12 pm, if am lucky. It is not easy to balance school work, a sorority, and a social life but my lack of sleep somehow makes it possible.
Once you feel well rested, use Sunday as a day to be productive. You finally have time to run all the errands you did not have time for during the week. With your busy work schedule, classes, and homework to do Monday-Friday, it is hard to get everything you need to do, done. Saturday is strictly for fun and you need to push your responsibilities aside just for a day. When Sunday comes around, do not think of it as the end to the weekend. Think of it as a day to get your self together. For me, it is the most important day of the week. I mentally and physically prepare myself for my week ahead. So, make a list, or just use mine and use this upcoming Sunday to get everything you need to do, done!
