After Spring Break, we’re in the final stretch before the semester is over. So, we only have a little over a month to pull it together and get our GPA’s (and maybe our lives) to where we want them to be. Luckily for us, Her Campus National has hooked our readers up with amazing survival kits that are perfect for getting things in order. Here are just a few of the ways you can use your HC Survival Kit to finish out the semester.
1. Plan Your Time Carefully
There’s no worse feeling than that moment when you realize you forgot about a huge assignment until a few days (or the day before, let’s be honest) before it’s due. In order to juggle all of the end-of-year events, assignments, and summer planning, take advantage of a planner. The best ones usually have a big 30-day calendar for each month as well as space for planning each day.
The Erin Condren Deluxe Monthly Planners have all of that. They also keep you interested in your planner with gorgeous colored pages and inspirational quotes. Eric Condren also makes 5-color marker sets and sticker sheets so that you can color-code and decorate your pages.
2. Save Time with Beauty Shortcuts
If you’re somebody who likes to get up and put on makeup and a cute outfit even on your worst days, you’ve got to have some beauty shortcuts. My personal favorite is dry shampoo. It is great for revitalizing hair that’s in need of a wash. Freeman Beauty’s Psssst! Tropical Dry Shampoo smells fantastic and is made without parabens, sulfates, synthetic dyes, petrochemicals, or GMO’s. Just spray it on and brush through your hair and you’re good to go. They even make convenient travel sizes that you can keep in your backpack or purse.
Didn’t have time to lay out all of Spring Break? No problem. You can still achieve the illusion of a leisurely beach life with L’Oreal’s Sublime Bronze Self-Tanning Towelettes. They can also be thrown in your bag and whipped out for a streak-free, quick-drying self-tan.
3. Get Some Quick Tips and Inspiration
Spring Semester is arguably the most stressful half of the academic year. In addition to the regular workload, we have to think about applications for study abroad, internship searches, and for seniors, job searches.
Thankfully, initiatives like the #ActuallySheCan movement are here to offer advice, mentorship, and inspiration. The #ActuallySheCan Success Issue provides tips on mentorship, mental health, and goal-setting. Taking advantage of the resources and inspirations around you can be one of your best motivators during this time.
Her Campus Agnes Scott is very excited to be able to receive these goodies to give away to our readers. Keep on the lookout for some social media giveaways after Spring Break!
