HOW TO SUBLEASE Words and photo by Kimberly Harris
As spring term wraps up the school year, leases don’t end with it. Most students have signed a yearlong lease that binds them into paying rent, which sucks for students who want to go home for the summer or study abroad. A solution to get out of a lease is to sublease your place. If you’re looking for housing, subleasing offers a place to rent.
RELEASING YOUR SPACE START BY ADVERTISING YOUR ROOM WITH A POST.
You’ll have to find someone that wants to take over your lease. The University of Oregon has resources for students to access forums for advertising and searching for rooms that are being subleased.
TAKE IN CONSIDERATION THE CONTENT OF YOUR POST. Include pictures of your space that are clear and give a realistic view of the room. Take a few minutes to clean up before taking pictures to make your advertisement attractive – the goal is to sell your space.
WRITE IN ALL THE EXTRA DETAILS.
Include monthly rent and an estimated price of utilities in the post. Adding extra details like amenities, available parking and the number of roommates helps to market your space. Include the dates for when your room will be available and when the lease ends.
Looking for a place to sublease
POST WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR ON THE FACEBOOK HOUSING PAGES.
The post should include your desired price range and dates of when you want to move in and out. Keep the post simple with all necessary details.
REACH OUT TO PEOPLE.
Efficiently message multiple people about their offers by copy and pasting a generic message about interest, for example you could write, “Hey, I saw the post about subletting your room and I’m interested in finding out more information.” Keep track of potential offers by who replies to your message. Using a professional tone when communicating with tenants will show that you’re serious about subletting.
MEET IN PERSON.
Request to tour the space and meet the tenant before agreeing to sublease. Get a feel for the space to know if it’s right for you.
• When describing the loc ation, avoid advertising you r full address. instead use the name of the apartment building, landmarks or inc lud e the distance from campus to give a general idea of location. • Increase your chances of finding someone by respon ding to other postings. On Facebook’s UO Housin g feed people post their nee d for a place and what they are looking. Comment below the posts your interes t or message them with an offer.
KEEP UP COMMUNICATION.
Someone who is interested in your space will reach out to you through email or messaging. Promptly respond and be prepared to be transparent. Someone with a real interest will want more information about your space.
AFTER FINDING SOMEONE WHO WANTS TO SUBLEASE YOUR ROOM.
Take the necessary steps to hand over the lease. The process of handing over a lease depends on your property management. Contact your landlord or leasing office to figure it out. Legally handing over the lease protects you. If the subleaser doesn’t take over the lease the original tenant is still responsible for the property. Subleasers signing the lease eliminates risk because the space will be their responsibility, not yours.

NOT FEELING FEELING THE THE NOT SPRING FEVER FEVER SPRING Words by Kimberly Harris
Oregonians don’t know how to act when the sun comes out. Before assuming that I’m here to judge, I want to let you know that I’m another Oregonian figuring how to move through the first heat of the season. Adjusting to pleasant weather is hard after months of cold, cloudy and rainy days. It’s no longer an excuse to use the word hibernation to stay inside and binge watch Netflix. To help with the transition, I would like to share ideas of how to shake off the reclusive nature that some of us have enjoyed developing.
There are trust issues involved with the sun in spring, is it really going to be there for us? A long absence of sunlight can cause us to be skeptical of the first beam through our windows. Using caution to step towards the frame, carefully peer through the dust and blinds to confirm that the sun is actually there rather than sneaking around clouds. Approach the chord dangling to the side of the window and pull with as much confidence as you can muster. As the blinds zip up together the sun should start to reveal itself to you, soak it in. Once you feel familiar with the light through your window, it’s time to practice making steps into it. Start by digging through the back of your wardrobe to find that one pair of shorts from last summer. See if they still fit, shorts have a possibility of shrinking while tucked in your drawer all winter, pesky cold weather, causing anything to shrivel up. As bare legs and arms that haven’t touched sunlight in months are making their way out, remember to use sunscreen. Most people have forgotten about that one time, last summer that they got a horrible sunburn. Putting ears, shoulders and arms at risk of burning on site by walking to and from class. Avoid sharing the same skin tone as a tomato by rubbing on a light SPF. Those fortunate enough to absorb the sun, who expel freckles and a sun-kissed glow are suggested to have sympathy for others burning out here. If the preparation is too much and your feeling rushed into the transitioning, don’t fret about it. The forecast calls for rain and 50 degree weather by next week anyway.

When [the hate speech] activists of the spring come out
People that interrupt me, I hate that even though I do it
Watching people shop online while I’m in class and watching them make terrible outfit decisions
There’s so many, I’m gonna go with clout chasers, people who don’t think for themselves and just buy the 800 dollar shoes because they saw someone famous wearing them.

It’s easy to form bad habits, but way harder to get rid of them. While it’s an easier-saidthan-done journey to get rid of the rituals that might be bogging you down, it’s better to get it over with. Check out these tips on kicking common bad habits.
Habit
Resist. Studies have shown it takes about 21 days to break a habit or start a new one. Some things, like nicotine, will be harder to get off than others. But the bad habits you break and the better ones you start will help you reach your goal. So keep track, set rewards and use resources.
Juuling The innocent-looking, aesthetically pleasing device that mimics the simplicity of Apple products is now the bane of many young adult’s wallets and lung health. Not to mention that Big Tobacco owns a 35 percent stake in Juul (look that up if you don’t believe me). Either way, fads fade, but addiction stays. Here are some tips to ditch the itch. 1. Get rid of it. Don’t put it away, or stop buying pods for a “while.” Just throw it out. The temptation will be there if you know it’s accessible.
Habit
Biting your nails
2. Convince your friends to quit with you. Sensory memories are often the most triggering. Smelling the smoke or watching someone close to you smoke will make you want to as well. If they don’t want to quit with you, ask them to refrain from doing it while you hangout. 3. Develop another reflex. If you’re used to grabbing the Juul while you study, reach for a water bottle, your favorite snack, gum or something to fidget with.
An annoying, unsightly habit that sometimes you don’t even realize you’re doing. It’s an issue many people have and many people I know (myself included) would like to stop full force.
4. Prepare yourself. Quitting any habit is hard, but nicotine is one of the hardest substances to get kick. According to the National Cancer Institute, knowing what triggers a craving is important to making the choice to ignore that craving.
1. For cuticle tearers, oil your fingers. Lip balm is essentially key. If you can keep them moisturized, there’s less dead skin to pick at. While one perfect finger isn’t necessarily going to make you stop tearing the others, the more your skin gets better the better you’ll feel about stopping the urges. Don’t stop the moisturizing, though. Keep the skin healthy.
5.Use resources available. Smokefree.gov is loaded with tools and tips. Most importantly, stick to your goals. Remember you’re making the choice to better your life.
2. Occupy your hands. Anything from clicking a pen, to taking up knitting, to playing with your phone can stop you from tearing the skin or biting your nails. If you’re in a situation where you can’t do this though, it can be really hard to not. Per tip one, moisturizing your skin with lotion, lip balm, or anything you’ve got really will help you develop a new habit and is far less distracting when you’re in a lecture or movie theatre.
Visit smokefree.gov for tobacco and nicotine addiction advice or make an appointment with the Health Center to learn about quit options.
3. Get your nails done, with or without paint. Many beauty bloggers have claimed manicures have helped them stop the tearing and biting, cause why would you want to waste your money? Plus, it’ll help keep the skin healthy. So if you’re into that, treat yourself once in a while.
Habit
Sleeping in late If you’re staying up late to study, work, catch up on Game of Thrones, or whatever else you might do into the late night, you’re probably sleeping in late. Once you’ve started, it’s hard to stop. You might never be a morning person, but knowing how to get yourself to sleep so you can wake up for that 8 AM class can break that bad habit. 1. Put your devices on Night Mode. Staying up late to study is often unavoidable, but the blue light your laptop or phone emits can confuse your brain even worse. Apple products support “Night Shift,” which will emit an orange tint, and can affect your sleep patterns less. Windows users can check out “Night Light” in their display preferences in settings.
2. Get up. This is hard, especially running on little sleep. So start off on the weekend, and plan something you’re looking forward to for the morning, like breakfast with a friend. If you’re excited for it, you’re more likely to get up and being tired throughout the day will get you to bed quicker that night. 3. Set a bedtime. Routine is key to waking up early. It’s not always going to pan out with your schedule, but if you can find a time to stick to, your body will more easily adjust it’s sleep cycle. You may even be surprised to find yourself using the alarm less, and no one likes to be triggered by iPhone alarms.

everybody needs a little tlc Words by Sophie Bange | Photo by Trevor Meyer Many people can feel a mix of emotions around Mother’s Day. For some, it’s a joyful day to show your mom you appreciate them. For others, it’s the stress of getting brunch reservations, planning activities, and just hoping they’re enjoying their day. For many people, it’s a difficult reminder of a mother or mother figure’s absence. College students especially can be experiencing any combination of these. But no matter your circumstances, there are plenty of ways to celebrate a positive figure in your life any day of the year.
Go to a Class Together
Whether it’s a cooking class, pottery class, or wine and painting class, your mom/mother figure will love the chance to spend quality time together doing something a little different. A structured class is the perfect opportunity to get out of your comfort zones in a stress-free environment. Plus, you’ll have something to commemorate the experience, whether it’s a new recipe, handmade pottery or a piece of art.
Make a Collaborative Playlist
This is a fun, easy way to show you’re thinking of each other year-round. Spotify has a feature to make any of your playlists collaborative, meaning multiple people can add songs. Create a playlist and share it with your mom/mother figure to keep up with each other’s current music faves.
Volunteer Together
A great way to spend family time together is by giving back to the community. A few hours at a food pantry, animal shelter or community garden will leave everyone feeling good having done some good.
Become Pen Pals
Social media and phone calls are a great way to keep in touch, but there’s something about getting a handwritten letter in the mail that is just so special. One good way to keep correspondence up is to have something to write about. There are books you can buy, or just make one yourself, that include prompts for different subjects to write to each other about. From your favorite childhood memory, to your favorite restaurant right now, to where you want to see yourself in ten years, choose something to write to each other about and keep them in a small box. That way you can learn more about each other while keeping in touch.
Start a (2-Person) Book Club
This one’s pretty self-explanatory – just trade off choosing a book to read every month, then meet up or call each other sharing your thoughts. This is a great chance to include your whole family or other mother-child duos, or just force yourself to read something that’s not for a class.

Have a Good Ol’ Fashioned Movie Night
This is a great option whether you’re with your mom or not. Let her pick the movie, of course, then stock up on snacks and cuddle up on the couch. If you’re long distance, coordinate times to watch the movie at the exact same time. Text or FaceTime to share your reactions, or call each other afterward to discuss the film.

Springtime Decor
Words and photo by Lauren Bruce
Spring Hoop Wreath
Nothing says spring like a good wreath, and they’re incredibly easy to make. 1. Grab an embroidery hoop or other thin wood hoop from your favorite craft store and some fake flowers and leaves. 2. Cut the stems short, so there’s about half an inch of stem left on the flowers. 3. Hot glue or super glue the flowers over the smaller hoop, the one without the metal size adjuster. The flowers can be glued all around the hoop or you can keep it to one side in a cluster. The thickness of the hoop will make it look like the flowers are growing from it. 4. Hang from the wall by a clear adhesive hook or a thumb tack.
Door Decor If your apartment or home doesn’t allow nails in the walls or doors, there are still great options for hanging some plant life around your home. For this piece, try a grape leaf plant or eucalyptus. The fake (or real) plant will hang out of the container and will look more realistic when hung. 1. Grab some adhesive wall hooks and clear plastic, twine and a lightweight pot or vase. Alternatively, a thin wood or plastic box would work great for easily making a hole for the twine to string through. 2. Tie the twine around the pot securely and hang the adhesive hook to your door or wall. Decorate to your hearts delight!
Spring centerpieces Quick Tip! Eucalyptus is a natural dehumidifier. Hang this plant over your showerhead or in your kitchen to reduce moisture that creates mold.
Michael’s carries a wide variety of fake flowers (for people lacking a green thumb). Choose simple flowers and grasses, like bell flowers or eucalyptus for a more “realistic look.” 1. Vases in many shapes and sizes can be snagged from a Dollar Tree or Goodwill store. Pick your favorite and arrange the faux flowers in whatever aesthetic you like! 2. Want to get even more creative? Grab an acrylic paint for a ceramic or glass vase and add your own artistic touch to the vases. As an alternative, try black chalk paint on a clay pot to write inspiring messages or plant names on your vase. M O N D AY, M AY 2 0 , 2 0 1 9

SPRING BUCKETLIST Words by Sophie Bange With just over a month left until graduation, the school year is coming to an end. But don’t worry! There’s still time to have some fun and get things done before you say goodbye for the summer. Here is Emerald Essentials’ official Spring Bucket List to keep you on track before the year is over:
GET A CELEBRATORY BEER:
Whether you’re graduating this spring or not, you’ve worked hard, and deserve to celebrate.
REFINE YOUR LINKEDIN PROFILE:
It may not be fun, but it has to be done. Make sure to add all your University connections before you leave.
TRY THAT RESTAURANT YOU’VE BEEN EYEING:
Eugene has some great food; take advantage before you go!
GET OUT OF YOUR COMFORT ZONE:
Try attending a talk or event on campus that you wouldn’t normally go to, whether it’s outside your major or hosted by a student group you’ve never interacted with. It’s a great way to be exposed to something new without committing to a whole class!
FLOAT THE MACKENZIE RIVER:
Grab an inner tube, some sunscreen, a towel - and go! There’s nothing like a float down the river on a hot spring day.
EXPLORE OFF-CAMPUS:
There’s a whole state around us full of even more places to explore. AllTrails.com has a list of beautiful parks and trails in Oregon that are well worth seeing.
GIVE BACK:
Volunteer on campus or in the Eugene community! Connect with the Holden Center at the EMU for opportunities.
SHOP THE EUGENE SATURDAY MARKET:
Soak in the tie-dye and handmade soaps just one last time.
PERSONALIZE YOUR GRAD CAP:
Even if it’s not your thing, it’ll at least help your parents pick you out from the crowd.
FIND A NEW STUDY SPOT:
GO TO OFFICE HOURS:
REVISIT YOUR RESOLUTIONS:
It’s never too late to properly introduce yourself to a professor!
STRING UP YOUR HAMMOCK:
We’ve all walked past someone napping between two trees on campus and gotten a little jealous. Grab a book, string up your hammock, and relaaaax.
|
Never seen the Outdoor Program Barn, or checked out the Knight Law Library? This might me your last chance to see some campus spots you’ve never seen before!
CLEAN YOUR HOME:
Even if you aren’t moving, there’s no better time than spring to do some cleaning.

After a few terms, just about everyone has a favorite study spot. Why not switch it up? Finals week is grueling, but a new study spot can add just the tiniest bit of excitement to get you through it.
June marks the halfway point to 2020 - are you close to reaching your goals? It’s not too late to start!
SPEND A DAY IN PORTLAND:
Some out-of-state students may have never been to Portland; it’s only two hours away, so now’s your chance to explore!
