I strongly recommend taking didactic classes

My friend is taking Golf right now, and I know someone who took Bowling every single semester at Purdue. Maybe I should say your drawing/painting classes will count as well.

I regret not taking at least once Dance class, and I was too young when I graduated to take the Wine Tasting Class (which I heard was more difficult, and most people receive B's).

My didactic classes, sadly, were to the tune of language classes, but since languages are my passion, then I won't complain [too much].

Plus, it's a great way to spend your free time getting your heart moving while receiving credit and possibly, relieving stress! Yay!

Think about it. Enjoy life.

Find a place to eat that makes you happy. Or at least, warm and snuggly inside.

For me, it was a place called Red Seven on 2nd and Main across the bridge in West Lafayette. For places around campus, it was Egyptian Hookah, Blue Nile, Joo Joo and Gaza.

Go with a buddy.  Don't go to this place too frequently, but go here when you need some good food.

You can always go home and stock up with food made by our awesome parents, like I did. :)

Find a way to relieve stress

When you have friends, you have stress. When you're in school, you have stress. Stress, stress, and more stress. Dealing with it took me a while to figure out, so I'm just passing on my experience.

Playing piano was my way of relieving stress, but working out or playing sports could work for other people.  Everyone has a digital camera these days (don't worry, I can give you mine), so go out for about an hour or two (maybe with a friend) and take some pictures. 

This method of relieving stress should be available to you at least 3-4 times a week (my piano just sat there, vigilant. haha!).  

Perhaps reading a book or taking a nice long bath (as you are SO inclined to do anyways) is your modus operandi. 

Socializing in constructive ways, such as cooking together, also made me happy (therefore, de-stress). However, 

an omelette every morning is NOT GOOD for your health!!
