7 Essentials For Your Online Classes This Fall

Although school is looking a little bit different these days, we can still make the most out of it by preparing with some of these essential items by our side throughout the semester.

1. A Planner

You may not think you are as busy this fall, but whether you are busy or not a planner is always a must-have in terms of organization.

2. Cozy Blankets

My apartment always gets so cold so for me, I always have a blanket by my side. Also, blankets make sitting on your computer for long hours a day much comfier.

3. Snacks

If you have to listen to a long lecture, might as well sit back and grab a some a few to go with it.

4. Laptop charger

Zoom will drain your battery quite fast so, you will want to have a charger by your side just in case.

5. Coffee... lots of coffee

Even if you do not have to get up super early for class, sitting and staring at the computer for a couple hours will make you tired rather quickly.

6. AirPods/Headphones

If you are in a place with other people or roommates, it may be important to have these by your side as you tune into your class.

7. Lots of comfy clothes

Since there's not a whole lot of need to dress to impress, you might as well stock up on leggings or other comfort clothes of choice.

Although this list may not be too long, these are some items that I have found to be the most useful to me throughout the past two weeks of surviving online school and may be for you too!

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. 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.
