The weather is getting warmer, the semester is coming to an end and summer is coming. For all of us on the East Coast — closer to the border of Canada than the capital of the United States  — this can only mean one thing: IT’S DARTY SEASON. We all know the last few weeks of school is managing the perfect balance between darties and finals; but hey at least you’re enjoying your day, getting some exercise and some much needed sun. Up here in our tundra, we usually don’t know how to deal with it being nice out, so here’s our personal Darty Survival Guide to help you get through the last weeks of school and three months of sun.

1. Let’s find a SPOT firstÂ
Â
Spots is an app that allows students to find new cheap places to travel too as well as make new friends in town. You can also list your own “Spot” as an easy way to make some extra cash and meet new people. Just identify your location, name a competitive price and wait for a request from a fellow student! Spots is a good way of finding a place to throw a darty in case you don’t want to use your small apartment or dorm room. Just get a couple of friends to together, check out a SPOT, maybe even invite the tenants! That should be a fun time.

2. Shave. Or don’t…whatever pleases YOUR beauty standards!
Â
I love having dolphin legs, but that’s a “me” thing. If that doesn’t float your boat you can disregard this point completely, and honestly MORE POWER TO YA! You’re not confined by the pink tax on those annoying life saviors we call razors. But if you’re like me and like slaving away for about 12 hours of smooth legs, one of my favorite products is Silk Shaving Cream. It protects my skin against nicks and cuts and leaves them extra smooth.Â

3. Stay Hydrated with CamelBak
Hate losing your Red Solo Cup of ~wAtEr~? So do we. CamelBak is a great solution to keep whatever you drink nice, cool and collected. It’s also great for the environment because we’re sure you won’t leave it around. #DitchDisposable, am I right? It’s great at preventing spills or leaks, CamelBak; we got your Bak! Got Your Bak™.

4. Put it in a Vera, don’t carry it aroundÂ
When you’re walking around all day, you might lose some things. This wallet has 12 card slots, two bill pockets and an ID window. It’s a perfect size: bigger than a clutch, smaller than a bag and easy to carry around. It should be able to hold all your necessities and let you have everything you need to survive your Darty without the worry.Â

5. Because you never know
Â
Â
Let’s say Aunt Flow came for a visit before your Darty. It happens. It’s somewhat uncomfortable and can get you down. Monthly Gift makes sure you have all you need for your period before it gets there. It also gives you a little gift to make going through your monthly cycle a little brighter. Everything comes in a cute little box that you can throw in whatever bag you take to your darty.
Â
6. Because you REALLY never knowÂ
We sweat at darties, sometimes in ~unCoMFoRtaBLe~ places. In case you get a UTI (because of an as wet bathing suit, or any other reasons) AZO is the best way flush out anything that may come your way. One gummy equals two glasses of cranberry juice, a great home remedy for UTI’s. It’s no substitute for antibiotics, but it can help you get through those somewhat painful days quicker.Â
