Hey guys!
The weekend is finally here, which means we can put the stress of this crazy week behind us.
As a college student finishing my senior year, I’m always all over the place, doing a million things. If it’s not class, it’s work. If it’s not homework, it’s a meeting. If it’s not a meeting, it’s more work. Whether you’re a student, a mom, or a CEO, one thing you have to do, is make time for yourself. When you look at your schedule, where’s your happy hour?

At different times, throughout the day, I force myself to take a break, even if it’s 5 minutes. For 5 minutes, I’m not replying to anyone — I’m not answering the phone — I’m just not available. I’ll admit, sometimes it ends up being more than 5 minutes, but I need a second, okay (lol). It’s so easy, when you have a lot going on, to let people, assignments, and deadlines, drive you crazy.
Recently, with all the tasks I have, I’ve become a serious list maker. I have lists for everything I need to get done. On your to-do list, write something you need to do for yourself. It can be anything. Sometimes my time to myself is just sitting and singing along to music. Other times, I’m just not available for the day — I’m hanging out with my friends, chilling all day, or pampering myself. It’s really okay to not want to be bothered; just make sure you get back to the grind after you take your second.
Sometimes, your happy hour is what keeps you sane. Take your break, girl. You deserve it!
Stay Beautiful, keep grinding, and schedule your happy hour.
XO,
Sydney
