So the Christmas-shopping craze has passed, the hams and turkeys have been eaten and forgotten, a new year has begun, and we can finally take a few weeks to just..breathe.
But, in this free-time, we now worry about our classes, homework, tests, getting the right textbook, etc. Worry not! You can still find time to breathe. Take advantage of having just one, or no, class these few weeks!
Prioritize your work, finish it all, and then go out. Have some fun. Live it up!
Soon, the semester will begin again and we will all be back to our daily routines as college students. You know the flow, we wake up, eat, go to class, do homework, shower, eat, hang out, sleep, repeat. Well, now you can take advantage of the time you have.
-Go to a restaurant with your family and talk about plans and school and your new friends!
-Go see a movie with a group of high school friends, catch up, have a good ‘ol time.
-Message your new friends and ask them how they’ve been!
-Go on a nature walk with your music
-Write a crazy story and send it to a friend for laughs!
-Get a coloring book and color outside the lines
-Finish a giant puzzle and frame it!
-Learn a new game, like Mahjong (the most difficult game ever)
Go out and do something you wouldn’t normally do (something safe) and have fun! Break doesn’t last forever, and this is the time to take advantage of all the things you can do before classes start and stress becomes a constant in your life again.
Do something amazing with your time! Expand your horizons.
Make this an exhilarating time. Spend it how you want, in the most fulfilling way.
And remember, you only have a few weeks to do it!
