typical finals week procrastination post

++ even though finals week is usually pretty busy, i enjoy it.
++ naturally, i'm supposed to be doing homework right now, but if you have followed this blog long enough, you know that usually a post trumps homework.
++ as i have sat here stalling, i have come up with a basic list of what to do during finals week. inspired by my friend megan hewlett. read her post HERE

finals 101 
*take a study break every couple of hours. this is for your sanity & anyone else around you. watch some boy meets world or read a book. its okay to take an hour or four hour break.

*focus on the end goal. hello summer! it's so close, i promise that you can make it.

*if you live away from home, spend some quality time with your roommates. you know you will miss them in the long run. my roommates and i went to herm's inn this morning. it was tender.

*play with a puppy. that's what i'm doing tomorrow and i'm stoked!

*embrace the weather and fly a kite.

*eat whatever the heck you want. it' s finals week so calories don't count. it's a real thing. look it up.

*dance parties are always a great idea. not to mention they help relieve a ton of stress.

those are just a few things that i have found helpful during my three years of college. thank heavens i only have one more semester left of finals.

oh yeah. c's get degree's too. it's totally fine. :)

keep on keeping on my blogging friends.

i'll just leave this picture right here. if anyone wants to come play with me and 
bear, i will have him for most of the afternoon and evening.
