With freshmen starting college across the country, now is the time to be thinking about money. Here are 4 amazing tips. Keep Your Personal Finances Mobile The first step is to start keeping accounts for yourself. This is how you learn what responsibility is and how you become truly independent. Now we're luckier than our parents once were, because there are now a lot of convenient APPs on your smartphone that can give you a real time image of your money and spendings. Credit Is Important, So Use It Responsibly My best financial advice for college students is to be smart with you first credit card. Look for a card with no annual fee, good rewards, and of course—a reasonable interest rate. If the salespeople tell you that the offer is only good for that day, just walk away. Learn to Start Saving a Little Each Month Start now saving small and slowly increase. The easiest way to start is to save all your coins and deposit every week into a savings account with no ATM card. This will help you form the habit of saving. Network For Your Future Career The number one money tip is to work on your network by taking internships and getting into various kinds of organizations as much as possible because the quickest way to get a job is all about who you know, and not totally dependent on your grades. This could make you a lot more money than opening up a credit card or a bank account.

We don't have beds in the spacecraft, but we do have sleeping bags. During the day, when we are working, we leave the bags tied to the wall, out of the way. At bedtime we untie them and take them wherever we've chosen to sleep. On most spacecraft flights everyone sleeps at the same time. No one has to stay awake to watch over the spacecraft; the craft's computers call us on the radio. On the spacecraft, sleep-time doesn't mean nighttime. During each ninety-minute orbit (轨道) the sun 'rises' and shines through our windows for about fifty minutes, then it 'sets' as the spacecraft takes us around the dark side of the Earth. To keep the sun out of our eyes, we wear black sleep masks. It is surprisingly easy to get comfortable and fall asleep in space. Every astronaut (宇航员) sleeps differently: Some sleep upside down, some sideways, and some right side up. When it's time to sleep, I take my bag, my sleep mask and my tape player with earphones and float (漂浮) up to the flight deck (驾驶舱). Then I get into the bag, and float in a sitting position just above a seat, right next to a window. Before I pull the mask down over my eyes, I relax for a while; listening to music and watching the Earth go by under me.
