“Forest is an app helping you put down your phone and focus on what’s more important in your life. Whenever you want to focus on your work, plant a tree. In the next 30 mins, it will grow when you are working. The tree will be killed if you leave this app.”
Congrats, you made it! See you in a week 🙂
Just one more week before Fall Break! Even if you might feel like you’re at your wit’s end, keep hanging in there!
Can you believe that Fall Break is in two weeks?? I didn’t realise it until my roommate mentioned it, and she didn’t realise it until her friend mentioned it. On one hand, I can’t wait to have a week off from my never-ending stream of CS labs, but on the other hand, the week before Fall Break, man, that can be tough.
If you lay a good foundation, it’ll be easier to fall into your rhythm and routine. Here are some basic tips to set yourself up for the semester:
I don’t know about you, but I can’t believe that we’re only already only already (???) two weeks into the school year!
Here at Bryn Mawr, I have no doubt that y’all are academic achievers, so after the craziness of the first two weeks (and with many more crazy weeks to come), I’m here to say: take a breather.
Yes, start the semester off on the right foot. Know your professors. Be on top of your work.
But also, take care of yourself and try to enjoy everything. It’s too early in the year to bury yourself in a pile of books! Don’t you know that this is the best time of year? Autumn is approaching, and the holiday season will come rolling in.
Take a look around. Check your email for Activities Digest. See what’s going on in the city with Facebook Events. (Pick up your free SEPTA ticket from Guild Lobby!)

I’ll be back every Friday with a new post, and I promise I’ll write more about school, but for now, enjoy yourself and just take it day by day.
Just popping by with a quick reminder and word of encouragement (we’ve got enough readings and materials to study): We’re so close yet too far from summer. We’ve still got one week of classes and two weeks of finals. Don’t check out of the school year yet! These last few weeks will be critical, so finish it off strong!
Are you hanging on your wit’s end? I know that I’ve been getting a little extra tense in the past few days and undoubtedly will continue to feel the pressure as the term wraps up.
A picture is worth a thousand words. A moving picture, well…
There’s A LOT going on at the end of the year. You might be feeling a bit in over your head. When I’m feeling like that, I like to write down everything in a list, so that when I look back to it, I realize: You know what? It’s not too bad.
Here’s a checklist I made of end-of-the-year to-do’s. Feel free to use it! Just click and save.
