Tips to Surviving College #1

College is an interesting period of your life.
You are balancing school, homework, a job, friends, and church.
Which is what you did in high school, but this is on a more intense level.
Somehow, you survive on little sleep and stress without your mom there. Crazy right?
So we could all you use some pointers on how to make it through.
Here is #1:

Celebrate Holidays!

Growing up, holidays were a big deal. My mom had boxes of decorations for what seemed like every holiday and a wreath for the door. After leaving home, she said that the reason she loves holidays is because it is a little way to celebrate life. What a neat perspective that I never even considered.

So go to the dollar store and buy some cheap decor. Better yet, make your own. It will make your day to see decorations. Make cupcakes and buy yourself a Cadbury Cream Egg (the best holiday candy that exists). Wear green on St. Patrick's Day and eat green eggs. Maybe even ham if you want to be a big spender.

Trust me on this one. Holidays are a must.
