11 Things To Do While Waiting For Stranger Things Season 2
Entertainment Weekly

If you watched the Super Bowl on February 5th, then you witnessed something huge. Nah, I'm not talking about the Patriots' incredible win, I'm talking about the teaser trailer for Stranger Things season 2.

About 5 months ago the Duffer brothers and Netflix released a video that gave fans the titles to each episode in season 2. Until Super Bowl night, that was pretty much all the details we had, other than rumors and fan theories.

Now, we have 37 seconds of new content, and I think it's safe to say the every Stranger Things fan is losing their mind! Especially, since it was revealed that season 2 won't be released during the summer like the prior season. The Duffer bros are having us wait until Halloween. Can you believe it?! Don't get me wrong, though, they have a good reason for it. Season 2 takes place during Halloween, so why not have it be released on Halloween day, right? However, the thought of waiting until then is kind of agonizing.

With that being said, I figured I'd compile 11 things you can do while you wait for season 2. These may not hold you over until Halloween, but they may get you through at least a week.

1. Re-watch Season 1

You always watch prior seasons before a new one comes out. Duh.

2. Re-watch the Season 2 teaser trailer

Put that baby on an endless loop!

3. Stock up on Eggos

You're going to need your energy.

4. Listen to Vol. 1 and 2 of Stranger Things

5. Watch David Harbour's mind-blowing SAGAwards speech.

6. Watch Winona Ryder's reaction during said speech.

Her mind was definitely blown.

7. Read/Create theories

WHAT'S GOING ON WITH WILL AND ELEVEN?!

8. Listen to "Should I Stay or Should I Go?" by The Clash on repeat

9. Binge watch 80s films

E.T., The Goonies, Poltergeist, Stand By Me etc. Basically any movie that Stranger Things has parallels with.

10. Read Entertainment Weekly's article on the plot of season 2.

11. Cry (happy tears)

Because even though season 2 seems far away, you're just extremely happy that this fantastic show is coming back.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
