Well friends, I did something big this past weekend.
I graduated from college.
It still feels very surreal — and thinking of myself as a “college graduate” honestly feels kind of creepy, haha.
That being said, I’m beyond happy.
In fact, the quote “Dobby is a free elf” keeps popping into my head. Because now, as cliche as it sounds, I’m free. Free to do whatever it is I want. No homework, due dates, exams, etc. to answer to.
I won’t lie, I’ve been on a bit of a sugary/greasy food bender for the past few (!) weeks.
[Hence why I told ya’ll about my plans to join a gym stat, here.]
Since finals week, my girlfriends and I have been livin’ it up on Wendy’s frostys & fries, cheese balls, coconut cake, + basically any other nasty-ass food you can think of.
It’s gross. I KNOW.
I never put on the freshman fifteen, so maybe it’ll just be the senior 15 instead, all compounded in the two weeks prior to graduation, haha! #cantescapeit

Our last day of classes was Friday, and I’m officially done with exams this Wednesday.
How in the world am I graduating in less than two weeks?!
It sounds so cliche, but it really does feel like it was just yesterday that I was packing for orientation, stressing about finding a roommate, gagging over the nasty dining hall meals, etc. It’s amazing how time seems to move so slowly day by day, until all of the sudden everything seems like a complete whirlwind and it’s all moving too fast! It’s honestly hard to fully enjoy these last few weeks at school just knowing that it’s almost over in the back of my mind.

Ahh productivity. It’s a tricky thing, isn’t it? These days, I’m distracted by just about anything and everything, and I sometimes find myself wasting the day away on miscellaneous tasks, only to be forced to stay up late at night in order to get actual work done. It’s terrible!
As they say, “Do something instead of killing time, because time is killing you.” A bit morbid, but accurate — right?
Lately I’ve been implementing a few strategies to get my head back in the game, and they’ve been working so well that I just had to share with you guys, too.
