It is that time of year again: Finals Week. Are you looking for a fun way to procrastinate and blow off steam? Check out these links for ideas!

Plan a Crafternoon:

Head on over to the Dollar Store and grab some plain plates or mugs and get crafty! Draw monograms, your favorite quotes, or even just a random sketch on them. Bake them for 30 minutes at 350 degrees for the ink to become permanent and safe. These could make great holiday gifts for anyone on your list.

Another craft-past-time we all love and miss are friendship bracelets. This website has steps to various types of braids for you to make and style your own pile. 

Fit in Some Fitness:

Bodyrock.tv is a great website that has links to intense workouts all under 20 minutes. If the coffee or Redbull are no longer keeping you awake, use these workouts to give you a quick jolt back to alertness.

Pamper Yourself:

If you do not do this already, I highly recommend searching Pinterest for any at-home beauty fix you can think of. Feel stressed? Try out these stress relieving yoga poses. Looking for a new nail design perfect for any occasion? Check out some of these ideas and test them out yourself! My personal favorite… Online shopping! Wanelo offers a lot of great, off-beat items from electronics to clothes to art. 

Catch up on Another Kind of Literature:

Boring text books can get…well… BORING. Keep up with the latest gossip on your favorite celebrities with Perez. He always seems to know the latest and greatest of juicy gossip. Not into tabloids? There are plenty of great reads on our Her Campus UMaine site and the HC national branch!
