Her Campus Mid-Term Survival Kit

This is a sponsored feature. All opinions are 100% from Her Campus.

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at SJU chapter.

We might as well face the facts. Despite the lingering breeze of summer air and August sunshine that seems to be taking over Hawk Hill, we are well on our way into the middle of the semester. Faces we missed all summer long have become familiar once again, brand new text books are now bent and broken in, and our notebooks are overflowing with scribbled notes and intricate doodles.

We all feel tired, worn out, stretched thin, and although we don’t want to admit it, we know exactly what these feelings mean.

Midterms are coming. For some, they’re already here.

Whatever your professors call it, a major quiz or a take home essay, Her Campus has got your back! We’ve got awesome products from even better sponsors that are sure to help you survive those mid-term blues! So without further ado, take a look inside our Her Campus Survival Kit

Some days breakfast just isn’t an option. A bland 100-calorie bar may fill our stomachs for the first 20 minutes of that 8am class but too soon we’re left feeling empty, tired and maybe even a little bit (ok maybe more than a little) cranky. Luckily, Luna Bar is here to help! Wake up happy and ready to take on the day with these nutritious (and delicious) bars! With over a dozen flavors to choose form, this Woman’s nutrition bar will satisfy your every craving morning, noon and night, with a simple taste of chocolate in nearly every bite!  Show your love on Twitter @LUNAbar, on Instagram @luna_bar and on Facebook at www.facebook.com/luna

A full morning of classes is sure to wear you out but don’t let the workload get the best of you. Instead, get your best self movin’ with a quick work out and a bottle of Neuro SONIC! Between group meetings and study sessions there’s always time for a little sweat. So throw your sneaks and a bottle of Neuro SONIC in this stylish “Stay Young” Her Campus bag and head over to Hagan for a mid afternoon energy boost! Neuro SONIC will keep you energized through out the day and focused on what matters, all while providing great taste! Improve your alertness, mental performance, and overall energy levels with Nuero SONIC! Learn more on Facebook at www.facebook.com/neuro and show your love on Twitter and Instagram at @drinkneuro 

In all your studying, DON’T ignore those angry snarls coming from your stomach! And don’t miss out on time spent with your girlfriends, either. Grab your roomies and head to Chipotle Mexiacn Grill for BOGO burritos, burrito bowls and tacos! Have a big sorority or athletic event coming up? Look to Chipotle for all your catering needs. Show ‘em how happy your taste buds are on Instagram at @chipotlemexicangrill, Tweet your thanks at @ChipotleTweets and “Like” them on Facebook at www.facebook.com/chipotle

And of course, it’s rare that we make it through mid-term season without 1 late night (or 5) spent cramming in the library. Snuff the yawns and widen your eyes with SK Energy Shots, the perfect energy boost to ease the pain caused by nocturnal study sessions. Each energy shot purchased helps to provide a full mean for a child in need! Find them on Twitter and Instagram at @SKEnergyShots and “Like” them on Facebook at www.Facebook.com/SKEnergyShots

Don’t forget to follow us, the ladies of Her Campus SJU, on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook next week (and always) for your chance to win a few of these awesome products! Although we don’t recommend mixing academics with alcohol, when the studying is through and those mid-terms are aced, we’ve got the perfect Her Campus koozies to keep your celebratory drinks cold! Cheers!

A very, very special thanks you to Her Campus Headquarters for hookin’ us up! From our chapter to yours, HCXO!

My name is Annie Lagasse and although it's hard to admit, I am a senior at St. Joseph's University. Studying communications and marketing, over the last 3 years I've found a very special place in my heart for Hawk Hill. I grew up in a small town called Simsbury CT, with my two older brothers, my mom (who doubles as my best friend) and my wonderful father. Although I was blessed to grow up among the local farms, cow pastures and homemade ice cream stands of Simsbury, after 18 years it was time to branch out. While I'm still adapting to the big city and learning to love water ice and soft pretzels, I have certainly found a home in Philadelphia.
