How To Balance School, Work & A Social Life - Balancing Your Life // eyeliner wings & pretty things
Are you overwhelmed right now? If you are, you shouldn’t be. Just kidding. Life is incredibly overwhelming and when you’re ambitious AF it can be even more overwhelming. When you’re really overwhelmed you have a few options: buy a bunch of puppies and kittens and cuddle with them until your life sorts itself out, quit everything, develop superpowers or figure out a way to balance your life.

I chose option one but unfortunately the last option is the only viable one for now. While I do have the occasional “How can I possibly do all of these things!???!!” mini meltdown, my life is gradually becoming balanced and these tips on balancing your life will hopefully help you as much as they’ve helped me.

12 Bad Habits to Avoid In College

While I’ve written a whole post about Good Habits You Should Start Now, bad habits are (obviously) a lot easier to get into. Isn’t that always the case? It’s always a lot easier to do the wrong thing than it is to do the right thing and it’s always easier to stay up until two in the morning and eat pizza and chips than it is to go to bed at a ~reasonable~ time and eat some spinach.

These are some bad habits I found myself and my peers getting stuck in throughout college and I’m hoping that I can help you avoid them or stop them if you already do them. I’m also totally hoping that writing this can help me actually stop all of these bad habits. So far so good. Without further ado here are twelve bad habits to avoid in college.

In case you’re curious as to which novel sparked this outrage, it was The Museum of Heartbreak by Meg Leder. You can read my scathing review complete with horrific quotes from the novel HERE.
