Things you still have time to do

Late November is about the time when professors start sounding off about how the semester is nearly over. Students are usually too buried in projects and work to realize how quickly the semester is winding down. Then students start to panic because, as most college students quickly realize, the awesomeness of these four years is matched only by how quickly it all goes by. But fear not. You may only have two weeks left to take advantage of the fall semester before you return in January to the barren wasteland known as Winter, but that’s more than enough time make it count.

Surviving Finals Week

It is coming to the end of the semester where stress begins to fill the air as students await to take their finals. These finals mark the final grade students receive to either help or worsen their class average in hopes for the highest possible grade. However, students should realize that finals week is not the end of the world so do not panic.

Have an Early Christmas

It is early-to-mid October. You hop in your car and drive to a store. Any store will do, as long as you can buy your groceries, a Halloween costume,
and stock up on candy for Trick-or-Treaters. You wander the aisles of the store looking for the items on your shopping list. Suddenly, you near
the section for Halloween, and you spot a familiar, old, bearded man in a red suit with fluffy, white trimming. He’s sitting there on a tin of decorated cookies, smiling at you with rosy cheeks.

All the kids are thrown together, except this time it is in crowded basement parties and lecture halls as opposed to being thrown together in the playground. Everyone is behind on sleep because some students might decide to party and act like they live in a jungle when one decides it is bed time. Germs are everywhere because some people don’t know how to clean up after themselves. There’s an exposure to new people, places and, of course, illnesses. So, what does one do when one is sick and has to spend all day in their dorm? This may seem like a recipe for inevitable disaster, but hope is not lost. To stay alive and well, here are some ideas to consider.
