At 20 years old, I'm junior in college and starting out to be an adult.
Health tips:
- Don't be too preoccupied with being an adult and let go for a while, don't stress too much.
- Use the workout room daily and don't forget about your physical health! --arrange runs with a friend or roommate and make it part of your routine.
- Don't eat out too much, not only is it unhealthy and expensive but you don't even know who the cooks prepare it. It's best to cook at home in the community kitchen. -
