Just a Piece of my Puzzle!

Hey Everyone! I hope that everyone is having a great week! Today, I thought that I would have a more casual talk with you all. For me personally, I love getting to sit down and just talk to you guys because it is relaxing. So today, I've popped some popcorn, and curled up on the couch with a nice warm blanket to catch up on some YouTube videos, and I thought that I would just kind of have a pretty laid back chat with you guys about how I balance my academic and personal life. So, before I babble on anymore, let's get into it! So, last semester I took 19 credit hours worth of classes because I am trying to get out of school with a double major a year early (but that is a topic for another post), and will be taking 19 credit hours this semester as well. Last semester I was also in 4 clubs, and was still able to have time to go have fun with friends, here is how I juggled it all. My Planner Last semester I used a planner, desk calendar, wall calendar, and my phone c...

Hey Everyone! Today I thought I would talk to you about what I keep in my backpack to survive the school day. For those of you who do not know, I am a college student, who lives on campus and walks to all of my classes. Some days, I do not have time to go back to my room as often as I would like to, but throughout the last semester I have learned exactly how I like my back pack to be organized and the things that I like to keep in my backpack to make my days in class just a little bit brighter. I love these posts because you never really get to look through someone's backpack randomly. Also, in the pictures I have, not everything is in my backpack because I was home for break when I took the pictures, but if you would like to see an updated post later on this semester I can take more pictures. So, let's jump into what's in my backpack. About my Bag I have a Northface Recon, and I love it! You can check out this backpack  here . I am not going to review the bag i...

Hey Everyone! So, I have survived my first year of college living in the dorms. When I was packing, I can remember looking through a countless number of lists full of "dorm room essentials" and I must say, that while I over packed, those lists were going to have me packing things that I did not need and would not use. These sort of things ate things that you want to avoid in a dorm room because there is not a lot of space, so you want more for the essentials. Today I am going to be sharing my essentials with you. If you have any questions about uses just let me know. and items with an "*" around them depend on your school and your preference. Also, make sure to check your school's prohibited items online, and most schools also offer a packing list that is  a great starting point on their website. Also, try to have an idea on how your room is going to be laid out and how you think you want to organize things in advance. And only take the essentials on move in d...
