How to make your mornings easier
So remember how I vowed to never take an 8AM again and then I did? Well I swore to myself never again. So I have a 9AM now haha. Living an hour away from campus idk why I do this to myself but hey gotta get that edumacation somehow.
Anyways, I have a lot of experience with this early morning thing, especially with depression and icy weather and rainy weather (all 3 make you wanna sleep in so much more) so here are some tips to make your mornings smoother, less chaotic, and maybe even more enjoyable!
Give yourself at least an hour in the mornings. Trust me. The more time you have the better it is. You won't feel stressed or rushed and you'll have time to wake up before driving
M U S I C. Seriously. This like makes mornings 1000x better. Put in some earbuds or blast that shit and have fun. Dance and jump and head bang while getting ready
Make or buy coffee the day before and put it in the fridge or something. Having coffee already made speeds up the routine and it's a nice little treat
Lay out your outfit the night before or at least plan it and know where everything is. Saves so much time even if you are the kind to just grab and go. I am like that. Just grab a shirt and pants and go. But laying it out the night before makes me feel accomplished and in the morning I'm like oh!
"I'll just get gas in the morning" is the worst lie. You'll hate yourself in the morning as that morning will be the one where you are running late and it is super chaotic. Get gas on your way home
Pack your bag for the next day WHEN YOU GET HOME. Don't wait. Mornings are groggy and not the best and you are bound to forget SOMETHING. So pack as soon as you can
Use an alarm you like. "But Lauren, if I like it I won't wake up!" It doesn't have to be peaceful. It can be straight bag pipes and screamo with a hurricane in the background. But if you like it, you'll be happier when waking up
If you know it's going to be cold in the morning, leave the fans off
Two words for you: overnight oats. Cheap, easy, and delicious. "But I don't like yogurt. I am lactose intolerant. I don't like Chia seeds. But..." thousands of recipes my dudes. Thousands. I hate yogurt and am lactose intolerant and hate most fruits. So I use oats, almond milk (vanilla flavored), vanilla extract, cinnamon, coco powder with some sugar mixed in, honey, and if I'm feeling really frisky, some flax seeds. Mix that baby up and stick it in the fridge and voila! A tasty and fast breakfast! You can even eat it on the go or blend it to make a smoothie!
If there's dew or ice, turn your car on like 10 minutes before you leave
Make a routine that keeps things steady and flowing towards the door. Dress, bathroom, breakfast, go
Coffee does not make a great breakfast
Put water next to your bed and drink it first thing in the morning
Hair and makeup can be done before class
Try to get to class half an hour early or more. This gives you time to review and prepare for class
If you have time, try some excercise! A jog, pushups, yoga, etc. It's a great way to get early morning serotonin and energy as well as feel better through the day
Take care of your animals before you eat to make sure you don't forget
If you bring lunch, pack it the night before
Set an alarm for bedtime and listen to it. When your bedtime alarm rings, put the phone or book down and sleep
If you wake up before your alarm, stay up if you have less than 30 minutes before it goes off
You can try burning incense in the mornings. Orange, lemon, and basically any citrus scent is known to improve your mood and help with energy
Consider buying a second phone charger that stays in your car so you don't have to worry about that
Simplify your skin care routine or modify it for the PM
Night showers are now your new beat friend
No you won't wake up extra early to finish that assignment. Just do it now
If you like hot coffee, prep the coffee maker the night before and set it to start when your alarm goes off especially if you sleep near the kitchen. You'll smell it
If you need to help calm your anxiety over your mornings, make a check list with everything to make sure you don't miss anything
Keep your keys in the same spot
If you have a dog, walk them before leaving or feed them when you get up. They catch onto patterns fast and will wake you up if you don't want to get up
Wake up at the same time during the week. Consistency allows you to fall into the patterns and allows you to get used to it faster and easier. And on days you don't have to leave until like 10, you get extra time

Day 3 - do you tend to make new year’s resolutions? how well has that gone for you in the past?
I usually don’t make new year resolutions partially because I know that I won’t be really motivated to do it. But this year I actually made some resolutions that hope fully I could accomplish because they are things that I’ve really been wanting to accomplish but never got to doing them.
Day 4 - tv shows / movies you’re watching right now?
I am currently rewatching Jessie on Disney plus because that’s just reminding me of my childhood when life wasn’t has stressful as it is now.

Stu-dna Study challenge
Day 1-2
1. what did you achieve last year? what are you setting out to achieve this month? this year?
2. how are you balancing the holidays and your studies?
1. Last year I was able to bring up my GPA since freshman year I messed it up badly. I passed with honors (tbh idk how). This year my goal is to get my drivers licence.
2. Balancing my studies and holidays is easy for me since I don’t celebrate any holidays. So I don’t have to worry about getting people presents or stuff like that.

make sure to read the poem at least 3 times over. skim once, and read twice. Skim and read once each if you don’t think you have enough time. Don’t let the length of it intimidate you.
annotate anything that will help you to answer the question. Answering the question, aside from literary devices on their own, is the most important.
be selective about the quotes and literary devices you find, and identify which ones you can write more about.
