The longer you let it sit, the more odor it will remove. Optional: you can also sprinkle some fresh or dried herbs, like rosemary or lavender, to make your house smell extra nice!Julia in Davis, CAFri, 22 Jan 2010 00:00:00 GMThttp://www.daytipper.com/Tip/58947/Get_involved_on_campus.aspxFree-time is the college freshmen’s best friend or worst enemy. Most freshmen will take 12 hours of classes their first semester. With 168 hours in a week, you have 156 hours of time to fill. How a freshman handles that free time will directly affect his chances for success. With hundreds of organizations on campus, there are many options for a freshman to be involved. Studies show the more a student is involved, the greater chance that student will graduate from school.Ryan in Overland Park, KansasFri, 22 Jan 2010 00:00:00 GMT
