Sleep is NOT for the Weak

Ok, so week three of classes is starting and I already feel like an extra on the set of The Walking Dead. As I'm sure everyone has heard, sleep is essential to having a healthy and successful college career. How am I supposed to manage being swamped with school and extracurriculars, having a social life, and sleeping?

As Meg might say,

Most people that I've talked to have similar issues organizing their time so I thought I would put my 2 cents in.

  1. DON'T (and I know from experience) JOIN EVERY SINGLE CLUB. Getting involved is great but even I am spread thin and I'm only involved in five things
  2. Procrastination is the enemy. Sure, you can do it later, but wait! All your friends are going out so you put it off again, then you're up writing a paper until 4:30 in the laundry room while putting your clothes in the dryer for the third time because  magically they are still damp. Yay.
    That's literally my 2 cents, take it or leave it. Here is a lovely picture of me not heeding my own advice!
