5 New Things to try in 2015!


By: Tricia Oxford '16

1. Try listening to a podcast
One to try is "SERIAL!" It is a 12 episode podcast that follows Sarah Koenig as she uncovers the truth about a murder in Maryland 15 years ago. Start listening here: http://serialpodcast.org

2. Take up a new hobby
Try a creative project or a new sport/activity with some friends! By letting your brain take a break from all the homework and papers, your stress will drastically decrease! 

3. Go on more adventures
Take a road trip with friends, go on a hike, or explore a new restaurant in town! Create memories that you will remember for a long time.

4. Try to go a day without your phone
I understand this sounds ridiculous- especially with our generation- but try to spend a few hours of the day phone-less and focus more on what's happening in front of you, not on the latest tweet or post.

5. Do something today that your future self will thank you for
Try sitting with someone new for lunch, going to extra help in a class that you are struggling in, or working on the paper a few nights before it's due, not the night before!
