Dealing with Stress
The stresses of college can really wear you down and make life chaos if you don't learn how to control it. This sections offers some helpful way that you can deal with stress so that it does not get the best of you.
Stress is bad for your health and can really wear your immune system down. Pay attention to your stress levels at all time -- especially around finals!
Always remember that college is a temporary journey and it will be over before you know it.

- Shower - take a 10-15 minute shower to feel refreshed
- Hobbies - start a hobby to get your mind off of things
