On the First Day of Reading Period...

The end of the semester is a stressful time, and we all need to remember to relax every now and then. Flyby is here to help! This is the first installment in our Seven Days of Reading Period series, inspired by "The Twelve Days of Christmas." Stay tuned for more!

On the first day of reading period, Flyby gave to me a (very real) reading period itinerary.

Morning
9:00 a.m. - Alarm goes off. Snooze alarm.
9:07 a.m. - Repeat snoozing process.
10:03 a.m. - Actually wake up.
10:15 a.m. - Shower. Or think about showering and decide you’re actually too lazy and will do it later.
10:30 a.m. - Decide which sweatpants and hoodie you’re going to wear.
10:31 a.m. - Check BuzzFeed. (Preferred: Check Flyby.)
12:24 p.m. - Computer battery is low. Plug-in and go to lunch.

Afternoon
12:29 p.m. - Lunch. Spend way longer than you mean to talking to friends.
2:20 p.m. - Walk back to dorm. Check the 63 unread emails in your inbox.
3:00 p.m. - Head to the MAC. You need to stay healthy.
3:11 p.m. - Return from gym.
3:12 p.m. - Check reddit. (Preferred: Check Flyby.)
4:30 p.m. - Attend a review session. Take at least 7 Snapchat selfies with the caption “BOOORRREEEDDD :((“
5:30 p.m. - Go to dinner. You need a break after all your hard work at that review session.

Evening
7:16 p.m. - Choose a nice, quiet study area to work with friends.
7:22 p.m. - Start talking with said friends.
9:56 p.m. - Take a snack break.
10:47 p.m. - Return to studying.
10:49 p.m. - Watch a random YouTube video.
10:52 p.m. - Begin the endless spiral of watching all related YouTube videos.
12:22 a.m. - Take another snack break.
12:56 a.m. - Return to studying.
1:48 a.m. - Wander back to your dorm and promise yourself to study hard tomorrow.

Rinse. Repeat.
