5 Tips for Preparing for your First Day Back to High School!
1. Practice Sleep Schedule: This is one I definitely should do. If you are like me and are the absolute worst at waking up on time, you need to practice waking up in the morning so you are not late on your first day. My number one tip- SET MORE THAN ONE ALARM ON MORE THAN ONE DEVICE. I personally have about 7 alarms set on my iPhone and also an actual alarm clock because, for whatever reason, my iPhone is notorious for having the alarm screen up as if it is going off and no noise coming out. And trust me, my sound is on and my volume is…

Tips for Applying for Scholarships
This post is going to be very similar to this post: Tips for Applying for and Choosing your College!, with a few changes! There are several different scholarships available out there for all different types of people and are awarded for all different reasons. There are ones for the college you will be attending, the major you plan to pursue, and even ones for your specific county! There are also general scholarships open to everyone, but those tend to get more applicants and are therefore harder to get. Scholarships can be awarded for Academic Achievement, Financial Need, and Merit Achievement, so choose the ones you feel are geared towards your strong…

Tips for Applying for and Choosing your College!
Choosing which Colleges to Apply for: My main tip for choosing which schools to apply to is to follow your heart and choose the schools that have the majors you want to pursue. Everyone gets in their heads that there are schools that they should not apply for because they believe they will not et in or they feel like they cannot go there because that is not what their parent want or they think they cannot afford it. Even if you think you will not get in, take the chance. If you do not, you will regret it. You never know what a college is going to think about…

5 Tips for Downsizing your Closet for College
1. Only take the current/upcoming season: More than likely, you will be moving in fall semester. Therefore, it is probably still going to feel like Summer in the first weeks you are there (assuming you live in the South). Because of this, I will be bringing summer clothes along with a few transition pieces like a pair of jeans and a jacket I can easily layer with; maybe even a light sweater just in case. What I am saying is, you will probably go home before the winter weather rolls around so you do not need to pack clothes for all seasons. If your moving in in August, leave the…

College/Dorm Haul
Bedding: Twin XL Comforter: Most college dorm beds are a size Twin XL, so that is the size bedding you will need to purchase. I bought a white comforter so I can use it for many years even if I want to change up the theme of my room because all I will have to do to the bed is change the pillows! Twin XL Sheets: I got two different sets so if one is dirty I do not have to rush to wash it. I got white sheets with pink flamingos and a set of pink and white chevron sheets. Pillows: Since my comforter is all white, the pillows…

4 Dresses, 4 Tops, and 2 Bathing Suits all for only $100?! My Experience: Shopping Romwe and Haul!
We’ve all seen it: those massive hauls on Youtube full of dirt cheap trendy clothes from wholesale websites like Romwe and Shein. We have all wondered if it is a scam and heard the rumor that only bloggers/youtubers sponsored by these sites get the good quality products that are actually what they ordered. I have been browsing these sites for about a year considering all these rumors and wanting to try it out for my self- so I did! I bought these pieces myself with money I made on Poshmark and Romwe does not know me or know that I am a blogger so there is no bias in what…
