College Series: After Acceptance

Once Accepted into college/ university or trade school there will be a flood of paperwork coming at you. A lot of it will probably be online while other stuff will come in the mail. Do not let it overwhelm you, just stay organized and take things as they come. I suggest a binder with dividers or an expandable wallet, letter (these are water proof and already have gaussets for separation). You can get them at staples or wal mart. Keep records of everything just in case! When you submit something print out the summary pages and the proof of submission pages, you can never be too prepared in college. Print off contracts and invoices from payments. Once I started school I even put school reciepts (like book purchases, returns) in the college binder so if there was any discrepencies I had prove. File all of this stuff. You can organize it however you want. I did it by finances (financial aid, bills, reciepts), housing (contracts, requests, assignments), and acad...

Banned Books

I saw an AARP Bulletin and it mentioned something about Harry Potter being banned on the cover so I looked at it & found a list of books that at one point were banned or had attempted to be by American schools & libraries. They include many classics like the Scarlet Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorn for its adultuary theme, The Grapes of Wrath by John Stienbeck for it's language, Uncle Tom's Cabin by Harriet Beecher Stowe for being too political, I Know Why the Cage the Caged Bird Sings by Maya Angelo for too much sex. Remember these; The Adventures of Huckelberry Fin, Gone With the Wind, Of Mice and Men, The Catcher in the Rye, To Kill a Mocking Bird, One Flew Over the Cukoo's Nest, In Cold Blood, The Color Purple, Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl? Well they were all banned at some time for being socially offensive. The American Library Association annually sponsors (in part) a banned books week from Sept. 25- Oct. 2 that celebrates the first amendment draws attent...

Roommate Series: Going Green

One of my roommates is pretty "go green", save the earth, eco-friendly and so I started recalling some of the many videos I have seen about clever uses for things or life hacks reusable items. Even without a market where you can bring your own containers, fill them, and pay by weight (bulk bin places) you can still make a few changes. There are other changes that can be made like those reusable menstrual cups for women to reduce waste from tampons or pads but in my opinion, that's not as easy of a change to make. Here are some of the easier ones I've found that require a little effort but will save particularly on plastic, some can even save you money in the long run. Another perk with making your own is that the chemicals used are what you put in them so you can make them more natural if that's also a goal for you. If you are more of a visual person there are links to videos at the bottom. There are so many videos out there but here are a few that I reference. ...
