Nothing screams hell yeah! like that 6 a.m. phone call, 12 text messages, and emails galore letting us know that classes have been cancelled for the day because of the bad weather. For some, it means a long weekend to be productive, and for others (especially me), it means more time to procrastinate on homework and projects that were due that day. So while you are looking for something to do on your day off from classes, here are 11 things you can catch a Bridgewater State student doing on a snow day.

1. Sledding down Shea Durgin Hill

I do not care if you are 8-years-old, or 20, sledding is fun no matter what. On a snow day here at BSU, you will see the Shea Durgin Hill full of people sledding all day. Walking up the hill may be the worst time in the world, but sledding down it is the best.

2. A snowball fight in Quad

Imagine 11,000 BSU students having a giant snowball fight? F**** awesome.

3. Building a snowman or a snow fort

Every now and then you catch a snowman being built on campus. When it comes to snow forts, you need one for that snowball fight on the quad right?

4. Games in your dorm

Cards Against Humanity or Heads Up are classic games that my friends and I play whether or not it is a snow day, so what a great way to pass time on your day off.

5. Netflix or Movies

If there is one thing that every college student has in common, it is a subscription to Netflix. When the school emails us, they really should just say, "Enjoy your day off from school watching Netflix."

6. Getting Bridgewater Bagel

Absolutely nothing will stop a BSU student from trekking through the blizzard to get a french toast bagel with chocolate chip cream cheese. NOTHING!!

7. Participate in the snow storm purge of moving car to parking garage

Sit back, grab some popcorn and watch as 4,000 students battle to claim a spot in the parking garage when the email goes out to move your car out of the parking lot. It is like a combination of "The Purge" and "The Hunger Games" combined and intensified by 10,000.

8. People watching from your window

Watching a BSU student try to make their way across campus to get to a dining hall during a snow storm may be the funniest thing to watch while you are laying on the couch under a blanket.

9. Doing homework

I will being doing homework or writing my article because I am the king of procrastination. However, most BSU students look at a snow day as an extra day to write that 10-page paper on the history of Napoleon that they have been putting off for two weeks.

10. Taking snow day pictures and tagging them with #BSUlife on Instagram

Many or all of Bridgewater State students dream and live for the goal of having BSU repost one of their photos on Instagram. No matter what the weather is, there is constantly a huge amount of #BSUlife pictures on Instagram being posted each day.

11. Catching up on sleep

All students no matter what school you go to bank on catching up on sleep. Even though that phone call that school is cancelled may wake you up, it is easy to go right back to sleep to make up for staying up until 3 a.m. the night before.

So, whether it is snowing or not, remember that every day is a great day to be a bear, but if you do see a bear paw print in the snow, call your local police.
