Monday March 24 - Daily Thoughts

Spring break is just around the corner, and for many Signal Mountain students that's the cue to shut off all brain activity in class. Morale in the classroom is generally mutual between students and teachers at this point, "Get us out of here and on the beach" cries the school's population. The worst part is, it's supposed to be 50 degrees all week, and isn't supposed to get warmer until late next week. It occured to me that the thought of this is probably pretty demoralizing for students and staff. So, to help everyone through this annoying Monday, here are some tips on how to turn that frown upside down.

5 Tips for Curing the Monday Blues

1. Don't go into a Monday with a Bad Attitude. Anyone who expects their day to suck is going to have a sucky day. Don't count yourself out early. 

2. Immerse yourself with friends. Good company is always the best company, and everyone knows its hard not to be happy with people that you enjoy being around. 

3. Make today different. Feeling like you're stuck in a routine and just cannot seem to get out? We've all been there. Try and switch it up today. Maybe you're feeling an ice cream at lunch, or a run on the track after school, find something you enjoy and make it happen. 

4. Netflix. Enough said. 

5. Go see a movie or go out to eat tonight. I heard the new fast and furious movie was pretty good..

If all else fails and the above tips aren't working for you, then sleep it off and Tuesday will be here before you know it. If that doesn't work either, and you find yourself having a bad week, then just remember again that Spring Break is coming up.

Still not cheered up?

This is a last resort, but here's my last attempt to at least get you to smile, Signal Mountain.

Have a good Monday Eagles.
