Blogger Benefits

There are infinite benefits to having a blog, and I wanted to dedicate one of my posts to listing all the things I personally love about being a teen blogger. So, here we go! :)

1. You can post whatever you want, whenever you want
2. You can make your blog unique
3. You can dedicate your blog solely to posting about celebrities, the news, your life, etc.
4. BLOGGING IS SO INTERESTING!!
5. You can post something knowing that someone in the world will always be there to read what you have to say
6. You literally never get tired of blogging
7. You can spend a ton of time on the computer for a good cause, because you're writing your weekly/monthly, etc. update for your blog
8. Blogging is a great way to rant about your day or how you feel on a website and publish posts that people will actually be willing to read
9. There will always be someone in the world who will be moved by what you have to say
10. So many different types of blogs exist (teen blogs, culinary blogs, fashion bloggers, etc) which encourages you, a blogger, to really strive to make your blog unique from everyone else's

There are 10 benefits right there as to why blogging is fantastic. I love blogging because I can post something whenever I want without having to stress about having a post out at a specific deadline. One of the main reasons why I am so dedicated though, is because someone, or many individuals, are always out there in the world looking forward to every post that I publish, and are willing to laugh and/or sympathize with whatever I have to say.

Getting Through Finals Week

As winter break is approaching and finals week is coming up, many students are stressed about how to study in order to perform successfully on their tests. Here are some tips on how to be calm, well rested, and ready for finals week. 1. Use Quizlet - I started using Quizlet my junior year of high school, and I have used it ever since. I am now a freshman in college and I still use Quizlet for my classes. Quizlet is amazing; if you have a lot of terms you need to memorize, Quizlet is the perfect online website that will help you study those terms. Once you write in the terms and their definitions, there are a variety of options you can choose in order to study the terms, including a test, flashcards, etc. 2. Get lots of rest - Don't stay out late when you know you have a final the next day. Getting a lot of rest is beneficial if you want to perform well on a test.

With this, I have been keen to try new recipes! I do eat meat, but most of the time I tend to cook vegetarian and vegan meals. This vegetarian chili recipe was one that I came across while browsing for a good, hearty chili recipe, and it is so delicious I had to share it with all of you. I did not come up with this recipe myself. The lovely Shannon, with her blog "The Glowing Fridge," posted this recipe. Her website is amazing, and I highly recommend you check it out.
