The Most Wonderful Time of the Year?

Well, it’s that time of the year again! No, not the family holidays or the first snowfall-- that time of year when all college students, especially seniors like myself, are busy pounding on their keyboards hour after hour, churning out final papers.

My eyes are glazing over and my desk is stacked high with reference books and overflowing with cardboard coffee cups. I get out of my pajamas only to go to class. This semester will be over with only four days left before Christmas!

Some helpful advice for others whose butts are stuck in front of the computer night and day:

1. Easybib – a free online paper citation tool that allows you to fill in the blanks to create an MLA or APA format bibliography that is Word-ready.

2. Quotationspage – searchable quotations to add to that paper or to jump-start an introductory paragraph.

3. Kimskruises – when you feel like you can’t type another word, click here and start planning a cruise for winter break!
