1 Play on Facebook

Bring along your iBook or Lenovo and after 3 to 4 minutes of taking notes in pretty colors (or burly colors for you men), you will find yourself conveniently looking at your ex-boyfriend’s (or ex-girlfriend’s) new photos.

2 Daydream

Think about how nice it would be to be lying on a beach somewhere with a margarita in your hand...after all, Spring Break is only five and a half months away.

3 Texting

Text your friend, text your roommate or text your mom. Just make sure your phone is on silent because no professor wants to hear the polyphonic version of “Take Me Home Tonight.”

4 Doodle

You don’t have to be an art major to draw all over notebook paper.

5 Stare at something pretty

Whether it’s the hot professor, the “McDreamy” guy that sits in the front row or the leaves falling outside, key in on something easy on the eyes.
